A 50-year-old man, Mario Bustamante Leiva, was sentenced to three years in prison for stealing former Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem's Gucci handbag from a Washington, DC restaurant last April; the bag contained about $3,000 in cash and he pleaded guilty to three counts of wire fraud and one count of first-degree theft, with investigators tracing him via a stolen credit-card gift card. He faces deportation after serving his sentence.
