Dumb criminals. Where did they think they were going to take it in to turn it into cash? Did they have a plan to drive it across the province to take to an unsuspecting, or unaware of the situation scrap yard? Or maybe cut up a couple of km worth of wire into 1 foot chunks? Surely any scrap yard within 100km of this would have been called and warned to turn these guys in.

I fixed a bunch of copper heating cables after some deadbeats ripped down the copper eaves troughs of a church. They may have netted a thousand dollars. My bill was $13,000. The electrician's was more and the coppersmith's was out of sight. Probably a hundred thousand in total.
Five dollars a pound for bright copper.

Back in the 90s my uncle worked for a copper tubing manufacturer. They were buying scrap and noticed that it was their copper... long story short inside job, working with a truck driver and a scrapper. Frequent extra roll on the truck, extra roll of new copper to the scrapper...
