Did you offer to help or just jump to conclusions?

Why didn't you just ask him while you were there? I must assume you actually saw the suspected thief. If you did not, how do you know it wasn't a female? Are there no electric stealing females out there? So much to ponder in this life.

Here is my suggestion. Each evening, and again each early morning take a quick trip to the mail station. If you don't see that cart again, then you can relax, knowing that it was a one time situation where he needed a quick charge to get home. But, if you see it there regularly, well, I'm sure that an appropriate next step will come to mind.

just proves you can fool some of the people all of the time. Again if it was something of value you owned I doubt you'd be so generous.

I can only comment about what this poor fellow was accused of doing.

Sorry that I cannot get all worked up about it.

Actually not at all sorry but not convinced the guy needs the death penalty.
