Coffee spiked with urine
A postal worker has been charged with putting urine in the coffee of co-workers who set up a video camera in their break room after they became suspicious. Thomas Shaheen, 49, who works as a vehicle mechanic for the US Postal Service, was charged Aug. 5 with two misdemeanor counts of adulteration of food or placing harmful objects in food. Prosecutors said workers believed Shaheen poured urine into a coffee pot in a break room on July 5 and again July 6. Suspecting a problem, workers started their own investigation.
