SANFORD, Fla. (AP) - A central Florida man was surprised to find
$100,000 in cash in his attic. But the discovery has started a
messy legal fight over who should get the cash.
The money was hidden in a cavity cut in the insulation in four
plastic bags filled with $20 and $100 bills stuffed into a
strongbox. Bernard Salcedo remembered someone was killed in the
home years earlier, so he called police.
Now, the home's former owner is laying claim to the cash.
Similar bundles of cash were found hidden in the home after Scott
Quinn was found stabbed to death in 2003.
Police returned the money to the victim's estranged wife, Lana
Quinn.
But Salcedo's attorney insists there was no way to prove the
money belongs to Lana Quinn.
Police are keeping the cash in a vault until the two sides hash
things out.
