<p>[QUOTE="SDK, post: 1566468, member: 41861"]I used to collect pennies when I was a kid, but have since lost interest. The reason I am here is to make sure you've heard about the Kennedy Mint; I am from Painesville, OH and a popular fishing spot is the Rocky River. There was a 30,000+ fish kill and people who rely on the river for their breakfast, lunch and dinner were warned not to eat the fish. It seems the guy who owned the Kennedy Mint and ripped off all those folks with worthless coin collections got caught dumping a 50 gallon drum of cyanide into the river. </p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.cleveland.com/metro/index.ssf/2012/10/attorney_says_man_accused_of_d.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.cleveland.com/metro/index.ssf/2012/10/attorney_says_man_accused_of_d.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.cleveland.com/metro/index.ssf/2012/10/attorney_says_man_accused_of_d.html</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Then someone tipped off authorities, so the wife stalled investigators at the door</p><p>while the husband moved the pierced barrel into the back of the</p><p>warehouse.
