A Cheap Art Thief

A Columbia County Board Representative, Susan Raimer, announced earlier this past week that three art pieces were stolen from the walls of the courthouse in Columbia, Wisconsin. The specific area inside the courthouse where the incident took place was in a Branch 2 jury room. This is typically an area used for private conferences between attorneys and their clients, deliberating jurors, and for employees to finish up paperwork or eating their lunch. Three 3-D photos were added to this area to "brighten up the space", making it look more friendly and colorful. The pictures showed very realistic imagery and the images changed, based on where you viewed them in the room. The price value of each of the three pieces was supposedly only $5. The pictures have thus been replaced by similar-looking and more motivational pictures.
