A longtime member of a church here has been charged with stealing about $28,000 over 11 years after church officials caught him on tape with his hand in the collection plate, authorities said..

First of all the first image to come to mind was George Carlin sitting in a pew with a smirk taking from the plate as it passed.
I'm not religious but as a kid I remember they passed a plate and it was covered in coins and cash.. can't say I wasn't tempted while dreaming about the newest transformer toy.
SOOOOO....this got me thinking. The question is: Who has stolen from a church here? Not just off the plate... but anything.
