I've known plenty that would do that. Even right under your nose. Had a guy ask to borrow my channel locks onec and a couple of days later when I asked for them back he said he lost them. Someone later told me he still had them and I was leaving for another job so I oculdn't get them back. Hence the term ...thief and liar.
