OCEANSIDE, Calif. (AP) - OCEANSIDE, Calif. (AP) - A San Diego County man has pleaded not
guilty to stealing some 3,500 Pillow Pets from an Oceanside
warehouse.
The North County Times (http://bit.ly/Ngv8G3 ) says 42-year-old
Danny Ray Wright of Carlsbad entered the pleas Tuesday to grand
theft and burglary.
Prosecutors contend that Wright stole $84,000 worth of the
animal-shaped pillows and may have sold some on eBay.
Authorities say he was an independent contractor who was allowed
to sell some pillows but never paid the company. Prosecutors
contend that beginning in January, he pilfered Pillow Pets by
sneaking them out of the warehouse.
He's free on bail and could face four years and eight months in
prison if convicted.
