“He’d been living there for two months, hiding out at night on couches, eating the company’s food, and exercising and showering in its gym.”

Basically, this dude moves into the AOL work campus, lives on the couches, eats the food, showers, uses the gym, does laundry there - for two months straight to work on HIS startup stuff for his own profit.

Compare this to Tanya McDowell:

A homeless woman from Bridgeport who enrolled her 6-year-old son at a Norwalk elementary school has become the first in the city to be charged with stealing more than $15,000 for the cost of her child’s education.

Tanya McDowell, 33, whose last known address was 66 Priscilla St., Bridgeport, was charged Thursday with first-degree larceny and conspiracy to commit first-degree larceny for allegedly stealing $15,686 from Norwalk schools. She was released after posting a $25,000 bond.

The differences in the language used to describe the two situations is pretty striking.

I agree about the differences in language, but Tanya McDowell wasn’t arrested for sending her child to the wrong school, she was arrested for trying to sell narcotics to an undercover officer and charged concurrently for the school case. She is serving five years of a twelve year sentence.
