According to the indictment, Osborn and Langevin diverted approximately 16,528 pounds of copper bullet cups from the Lake City plant to Fusselman Salvage Company. That amount of copper would otherwise have produced approximately 1.5 million rounds of ammunition, and amounts to more than two weeks' production of 7.62 mm ammunition. Osborn and Langevin allegedly shared approximately $45,362 in proceeds from salvaging the copper material, which was valued at $78,838.

That is some serious theft. They should do their time at Ft. Leavenworth.

They should do their time at Ft. Leavenworth.

I'd recommend a cozy little cell somewhere in Anbar province.
