Pirate's body washes ashore with $153,000


WHAT IN THE HELL???
Here we are, regular, hard-working folks...the working poor and a maurudering thug is floating around international waters with $153,000?! SMH
Somebody needs to row pass their butts and rob THEM it seems!
Besides, what do Somalian thieves who are, reportedly, from small, desolate, destitue villages out in the middle of Nowhere, Africa do with such an astronomical amount of loot anyway??

MOGADISHU, Somalia - The body of a Somali pirate who drowned just after receiving a huge ransom washed onshore with $153,000 in cash, a resident said Sunday, as the spokesman for another group of pirates promised to soon free a Ukrainian arms ship. Five pirates drowned Friday when their small boat capsized after they received a reported $3 million ransom for releasing a Saudi oil tanker. Local resident Omar Abdi Hassan said one of the bodies had been found on a beach near the coastal town of Haradhere and relatives were searching for the other four. "One of them was discovered and they are still looking for the other ones. He had $153,000 in a plastic bag in his pocket," he said Sunday.
