TV Stolen at Prison Facility

It took some kind of nerve to pull off a recent theft - from the Fort Des Moines Correctional Facility.
A thief absconded with a flat-screen TV after attending a program at the Des Moines facility for former prison inmates.
He nearly got away with the crime by using the cover of budget-induced darkness.
Authorities believe a man took the TV, valued at $400, from a dark conference room at the prison facility.
Two men initially avoided detection because budget cuts have left the prison short-staffed. The conference room surveillance cameras did not spot them because lights had been turned off to save money.
However, other surveillance cameras recorded Aaron Jefferson, 26, and Kareem Abdul-Jabar Sanders, 29, checking door handles in the building.
The Des Moines men attended a rehabilitation class at the facility Friday evening. The TV disappeared after that.
Officers raided Jefferson's residence and found the TV, Kreamer said. Jefferson admitted he had taken the TV, police said.
"Stealing from a correctional facility, we don't see that every day." Des Moines Police Det. Dave Smith said.
