50 years in prison for men who stole $ 1.2 million in fajita's

cameron county - A former employee of a juvenile detention facility in Texas has been sentenced to 50 years in prison. The man bought fajitas on behalf of the institution and then resold them himself.

The 53-year-old Gilberto Escamilla has announced a debt on Friday, writes Brownsville Herald.

'It was selfish. It started small and became bigger, it got out of hand, 'said Escamilla in his confession. 'It came to a point that I had no control over it. 'According to spokespersons, the value of stolen food is more than 1.2 million dollars, almost a million euros.

Gilberto Escamilla was caught when the kitchen of the juvenile prison was ordered to deliver a small 400 kilos of fajitas. They were never ordered there. Escamilla turned out to do that for nine years on his own, writes Dallas Morning News.

Escamilla, according to the American news site, has been allowed to say goodbye to his family in peace.
