Ex-Con Hands Out Cash In Spokane

At KXLY, Melissa Lucks reports: "The man handing out thousands of dollars in cash to Spokane's homeless is actually a convicted felon, who was just released from prison in Idaho and is on parole on Grand Theft charges. Edward Carmen Jarzabek, 34, contacted KXLY over the weekend, wanting publicity for his 'Give Project' campaign. During a video shoot for the news story Monday, he wanted to remain anonymous as part of his charitable giving effort. But, Tuesday, he confirmed his real name, which matches dozens of criminal reports from Idaho." More here. (Photo via KXLY)
