A former Yale employee admits she stole $40 million in electronics from the university

Petrone used the money to live the high life, buy real estate and travel, federal prosecutors say. She bought luxury cars as well. At the time of her guilty pleas, she was in possession of two Mercedes-Benz vehicles, two Cadillac Escalades, a Dodge Charger and a Range Rover.

(40 million dollars stolen and those are the cars you buy?)

So the wife is now 8 months pregnant, we are on the home straight,we have hardly seen anyone for 8 months and when we do we have worn masks. Except for last week when some of her friends came round to celebrate the upcoming baby, now we have COVID and whilst it’s no one’s fault but our own I am so mad right now!! Not helped by the dog tearing a nail off her feet, it cost nearly as much as the blooming dog to get the nail removed. I mean come on, it’s a flipping nail £290.
So my mistakes are socialising and buying a bonkers dog
