| NORFOLK, Va., Jan. 7 (UPI) -- A U.S. naval officer who said he took decommissioned fighter jet parts as souvenirs pleaded guilty to stealing government property, court records show. Matthew Sutton, 44, a retired Navy chief petty officer, readily led Navy inspectors investigating a bribery plot to his back yard shed, where he kept parts of an ejection seat and a 20mm machine gun barrel, among other pieces, The (Norfolk) Virginian-Pilot reported Thursday. The government agreed to drop more serious charges, but Sutton faces a maximum of 10 years in prison at his April sentencing hearing, the newspaper said. http://battlemachines.blogspot.com/2010/01/navy-pilot-convicted-of-stealing-gun.html | |
