SAP Executive pleads ‘not guilty’ in LEGO-theft case

   Langenbach told police that he did not intend to steal the items, according to court papers. He said that he had seen a video on YouTube about how to make fake barcodes to get cheaper toys. He switched the barcodes out of curiosity, to see if it really worked. He also wanted to see if the customer price scanner and cash-register scanner priced the items the same or cheaper, he said.

He told police he was not paying attention when he checked out the item on May 8 and that he hadn’t checked his receipt to see if the price was cheaper before leaving the store, according to the police report. He denied having switched the barcodes in the other incidents. Police have also linked a credit card he used for his eBay account to one used in one of the April 20 incidents, according to the report.

NOT paying attention after running an experiment based on a YouTube vid he saw? I’m SURE that’s what happened... who could doubt that? I mean, really.
