It's often
said that forgiveness frees the soul, but this doesn't apparently apply to 69
year old, Paul E. Donovan Jr., from Phoenixville, Pennsylvania. Donovan has
repeatedly vandalized the grave of the man he claims stole $300 from him over
50
years ago. The defacing of the headstone began in the spring of 2014 and
involved the use of spray paint, though he did once cover the marker with a
dark, tar-like substance.
This kept
going on for 2 years then the authorities decided to set up hidden cameras to
catch the vandal.
According to
the official police complaint, after being caught, Donovan said he was willing
to,
"pay back
any restitution minus the $300 that was stolen from him by the dead man 56
years ago."
On Tuesday, he
pleaded guilty to the offenses in court. He was ordered to pay the family
and placed on a 2-year probation.
