Students return purse holding $43,000
Arizona woman's life savings nearly lost in street gutterThe Associated Press
Updated: 8:25 p.m. ET Nov. 20, 2004CASPER, Wyo. -  
 
Two college students returned a lost purse to its owner, not knowing the handbag contained her life savings of $43,000.
 
Derek Hepner and Adam Simanton spotted the purse lying in the gutter of a Casper street Monday as they drove past it. Stopping to examine the bag, they pulled out a wallet and an Arizona driver’s license and immediately took the purse to police.
 
What they didn’t see was an envelope containing $43,000 in cash that was the owner’s life savings, police Sgt. Larry Baker said.
 
The owner had been traveling through Casper and apparently misplaced her purse during a stop, police said.
 
The woman phoned Hepner on Thursday to inform him of a $200 reward for the two Casper College students. Hepner is studying criminal justice, and Simanton plans to be a lawyer.
 
“I can’t believe we had that much money in our possession and didn’t even know it,” Simanton said.

Now, who says our nation's youth have gone to "hell in a hand basket"?

The question becomes, would they have returned it IF they knew what it contained?  Good for them for not looking, just the same.
