“A Methuen, Mass., man accused of stealing 330 iPhones with a former co-worker turned himself in yesterday after fighting extradition for nearly two months,” James A. Kimble reports for The Eagle-Tribune.
“Josh Garrard, 28, was ordered held at the Rockingham County Jail yesterday after his arraignment in Salem District Court,” Kimble reports.
“Salem police Sgt. Steve Malisos said police sought a governor’s warrant and were in the process of trying to bring Garrard back to the state from Massachusetts through the court system when he changed his mind and turned himself in at the Salem police station around 11:30 a.m. yesterday,” Kimble reports.
“Garrard was arrested March 25 at his Methuen home on charges of teaming up with a co-worker at the Apple Store at the Mall at Rockingham Park to steal hundreds of the popular computer phones and resell them,” Kimble reports.
“Garrard and Christopher Nashed, 22, of Sandown are facing single felony theft charges. The two men planned on reselling the phones to a single buyer for a $138,600 profit,” Kimble reports.

The perfect punishment for this guy: GIVE HIME A ZUNE IN EXCHANGE!!!
330 iPhones falls well within felony theft range.
If he has a previous record, he is looking at a few years shacking up with some very lonely male companionship.
Suggested playlist for his zune while in prison:
Welcome to the jungle-Guns N’ Roses
I fought the law-The Clash or Bobby Fuller Four
Been Caught stealing-Jane’s Addiction
Renegade-Styx
Love is all around-Generation Love
Love Hurts-Nazareth
I agree about the Zune thing.
A 30-year prison term is like 10,950 days in jail.
I say they should give him 109 Zunes, and for every one that he sells he can knock 100 days off his sentence. The stipulations are that he must sell them at the going retail price and has one month to do it (and no sales can be made to the mentally challenged, either).
That ought to result in a pretty long prison term. He’ll be taking in the zuen quite a lot, methinks.
That last line should have read: Taking it in the Zune.
Boy, I suck at typing today.
add Blondie – “One Way Or Another”
Love Hurts! That was hilarious. Honestly the funniest comment on here in a long time.
Zunes in prison? Sounds like the only place where squirting might work.
He must return the iPhones + double what they’re worth.
More songs:
Strange Love-Depeche Mode
Bump and Grind-Keith Sweat
The Woman in Me-Shania Twain
Of course the last maybe should be the man in…..

Give each of them 330 Zunes and require them to sell them for MSRP before they can get out of jail.
I think GameStop has a few laying around . . . .
This young man just ruined his life.
Songs for you guys:
I’m an Asshole
Zero the Hero
Secret Loser
I like that it was referred to as a “computer phone”. Finally.
What part of “Don’t do the crime if you can’t do the time” don’t you understand?
They screwed up for, potentially, big money. They deserve the ridicule.
I would think the theme song from ‘Haft’ would be most appropriate here.
That would have been ‘Shaft’ if I knew how to type.
