I'd return it to any of those guys out of shear panic that they may come collectin if you get my drift.

Seriously, if you know the source of the money, in this case Brinks or BOA, and you decide to keep it that is theft.

In terms of the aforementioned low life's, if I knew the money was derived from criminal activities I would not return it, I would turn it into the police. Blood money is blood money no matter how one comes by it.

Following your logic if I rob a bank, lose $140k in the getaway and you find it..........

Now if i've lived in my house for 20 years and one day while diggin a hole in my backyard I find $140k worth of 30 year old bills in an unmarked bag then it's mine.
