Man Uses Jumper Cables To Steal Electricity

James Bozeman of Marion County, Florida, confessed to the bizarre crime. Bozeman used jumper cables to connect an electrical pole near his garage to his breaker box, bypassing the power meter, which allowed for free electricity. In total, he stole $3,000 worth of electricity since 2005.
The first person that needs to be charged with a crime here is the meter reader. I mean come on, since 2005 you come to this house and not once do you think to yourself that someone is living in the home, yet the meter reads zero. Seems pretty obvious to me, how hard can it be to read a meter. If Bozeman needs more money to pay his bill, then he should get a job as a meter reader, which obviously a two year old could do.
I understand the dilemma Bozeman has to face. I hate paying my electrical bill too. Every year they get more and more expensive. But come on, five years? One year maybe, but five years is way too long. If he is smart enough to figure out how to steal electricity, then he is smart enough to get another job or figure out how to pay the bill like most normal people.
Ironic how he bonded out of jail, I guess he can afford that.
