The envelope contained about $400 in cash, along with a note from someone – Wu believes the mystery man who dropped off the note was the robber – who confessed to having held up the store at gunpoint 11 or 12 years ago.

    Wu said the man actually stole around $300, but returned about $400.
    "Maybe he charged himself interest," Wu said, laughing.

    Thief's note:

    I am a drug addict. About 11 or 12 years ago I robber this store with a gun. I do not use drugs anymore and I feel I must make amends to the people I have hurt in the past. I came in you're store around 9 or 10 o'clock in 2002 or 2003 and I got a 6 pack of beer and ask for cigaretts, when the registar opened to give change I pulled out a gun and took about $300 from the register then drove away in a white car, I hope you will accept this money and find forgiveness.
    peace be with you

      “🤓 erm actually 300 dollars stolen 12 years ago is not equal to the 300 dollars returned after”

      I’ll see myself out…

      The power of a 12 step program. This is the 9th step, making amends. It holds you accountable and clears the decks so that you can live freely.
