greedy goblins

A couple in Independence, MO, is probably wishing they had septuplets right now; that would probably be less trouble than what they are in now. They collected more than $3,000 in cash from a local charity and employees at the brake manufacturing plant where Kris Everson worked. He was released on $4,999 bond after it was discovered that he and his wife, Sarah Everson, lied about being parents to six critically ill babies. The couple are being charged with stealing by deceit and could end up in prison for 7 years. The couple said that the babies had been born in March and had to undergo surgery in order to survive. The couple even showed off the nursery set up for the babies and Sarah gained 40 pounds. I want to know how they decided on 6? Why not just say two? Or even one? It kind of sounds like something one would see on Days Of Our Lives. And by the way, what's up with $4,999 for a bond? Why not just round up to an even $5,000?
