Bringing Home the Bacon (Illegally)?

A man in Huelva (Southern Spain) has been jailed for stealing 7000 hams (https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/aug/09/spanish-man-jailed-for-stealing-520000-of-ham-from-employers). The jamon-thief took the hams from his employer's warehouse, over 6 years. The hams were sold, giving him a 'nice little (additional) earner'. The man's thefts, defrauded his employers of more than half a million euros. The thief could have received a sentence of up to 6 years. He will, however, actually spend less than a year inside.
