Pirate's Body Washes Ashore With $153,000

First we heard that 5 pirates had drowned after receiving a $3 million dollar ransom and now the body of one of the Somali pirates who drowned, has washed onshore with $153,000 in cash. That goes to show you that you can't take it with you, no matter how hard you try. Another group of pirates has promised to soon free a Ukrainian arms ship.

Those five pirates drowned Friday when their small boat capsized after they had 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. The one that washed onshore had a plastic bag in his pocket with the $153,000 in it. It sure didn't do him any good did it? Actually, it probably helped weigh him down so he drowned faster, I bet. Crime doesn't pay.
