Man paid prostitute with charity money and a primate, police say

Source: Faux News

A married Oregon pet shop worker paid a prostitute with cash from a Girl Scout donation jar and tipped the sex worker for her services with a small exotic primate, police said.

Nathan Allen McClain was charged on April 14 with soliciting a prostitute and was sent to Lane County Jail. He was released later that night, but authorities only announced the details of the case on Friday.

“It’s my first time ever recovering a monkey from a prostitute,” Detective Rick Lowe told FOX12.

Police began investigating in early March when Zany Zoo Pet Store reported the theft of $7,000 in Girl Scouts donation money, a laptop and a Galago primate nicknamed “Gooey.” Surveillance video from a neighboring store viewed by police allegedly showed McClain, whose wife owns the store, breaking into the pet shop.

Gooey looks a lot smarter than the suspect McClain!

up a bit, and the 7K is the total value of all three things? Otherwise, I'm gonna go find an adult-man-sized GS uniform and start distributing donation jars; that's where the money is!

Who would hand off little exotic critters to people without careful instructions for care and feeding, and assurance the person would take all care to protect them?'

What a dirtbag.

Hope his wife will send him packing.

Gooey looks so sweet with its yummy banana lunch. Best wishes to this little lemur.

will obviously have to be expanded to include monitoring of pet stores

Withdrawing 200 Gerbils over a period of time will arouse suspicions

Also, wondering if this is one of the first confirmations of the worthlessness
of our currency?

Barter as a form of payment might be preferred when cash is worthless, or hot
