>From the article:
"Murphy also pleaded guilty this month in state  court to stealing a raptor 
fossil from private land and trying to cash in on  molds from the specimen. 
Casts made from those molds could have brought in from  $150,000 to $400,000."

Shouldn't the company that was going to make those  molds and casts have 
known that it was a new specimen and asked for  documentation on it?  "Oh, I 
found 
it under a turtle" isn't very  convincing.
