Police say 18-year-old Jad Holmes used a purchasing number from Middletown High School to order thousands of lollipops and candy bars from Michigan-based The Goodies Factory. It wasn't clear how he accessed the number.

The candy company became suspicious, contacted the school and was told by detectives to send an empty box.

Police say Holmes was arrested after the fake delivery to his home.

Holmes faces two counts of felony telecommunications fraud. He was being held in Middletown City Jail on more than $30,000 bond.

I guess this one will get Middletown national recognition just like the cow lady did.

One of the more serious problems is - How did he acquire a purchase order number from the purchasing department within the school? Doesn't sound secure to me. Isn't this a breach within the system and wouldn't it be a good idea to investigate holding someone accountable for the issuance? How about it Dennis Newell- you're the head cheese at the high school. Let's have a report to the taxpayer as to why this happened.
