As I was reading through yet another Alpha Beta law suit, I happened to come across this one.
The individual named in the law suit is not a POI. It now has me wondering if the EAR worked for a vending machine company that serviced Alpha Beta, as well as hospitals and other businesses. I'm sure you can look up info on vending machine companies yourselves, but for quick reference, I'll include a modern-day job announcement for a vending machine tech. Such techs. worked alone, used company vans, traveled to distant areas as per routes leading to client locations, installed, maintained, stocked, and collected money from the machines, including lots of COINS. If the EAR was a vending machine tech, he may have been helping himself to sodas. This would have explain why he took coins from crime scenes - to use them to add to his collections, so they wouldn't come up short. Maybe that's why there were different types of sodas found at crime scenes.
