Natalie, Nadiya, Lexi and Trey – Karma is a bitch ain’t it? You all got what you deserved, to lose. Stealing is stealing and you can justify it any way that you like but what you did was wrong! I am terribly disappointed in the network and the show for not calling this out. Condoning bad behavior is bad business.

All four should have been turned over to Bangladesh authorities. What despicable human beings. Sri Lankan’s must be cringing, not to mention Texans……

Some countries in the area cut of hands for theft.

I hoped these two someday realise that stealing is morally wrong. Their actions are an insight into who they are.

Actually, what the twins did IS a rules violation. Contestants are required to abide by local laws by contest rules. By taking and keeping money that they were aware did not belong to them and that they were reasonably aware of who it DID belong to, they committed “Criminal Misappropriation”. Trey and Lexi therefore committed “Aid and Abet – After the Fact” and “Receipt of Stolen Property”. In addition, the production crew committed “Aid and Abet” by not reporting the crime to the appropriate authorities. I looked this up in Bangladesh Criminal Code online. The four contestants should be eliminated and the Monster Truck Couple have a good lawsuit on their hands to sue the production company for not enforcing contestant rules.

Carolyn………I too posted a comment on their FB page and had the same result; my comment was deleted and I no longer am able to post a comment there. What a loathsome pair those two are and I’m pretty disgusted with CBS position on this situation as well. I read on one of the links that in order to justify the harpies stealing the money Phil apparently claimed that they found it on the floor.

Both teams knew it was another teams money. It was a shameful act by both teams and there should have been some type of penalty for their actions.

Shame on CBS AND shame on Natalie, Nadiya, Lexi and Trey. I am sure public opinion will follow these young kids around for quite awhile. Twins have admitted cheating on tests and now America has seen them steal money and laugh about it…the Internet is here to stay, along with their very public disgraceful behavior. Punishment will come in time.

I posted my disappointed opinion on their facebook page. They deleted it and made it so I can’t comment on their page anymore. Quite sad how they defend their decision with that money.

As far as I am concerned this is stealing. The twins knew that the money belonged to another competitor and right thing to do would have been to handover to the persons who lost the money or to the office manager. Twins’ have not played the game clean and has brought disrepute to their country of origin.

The problem I have is that it appears to break the rule about not interfering with the property of other team members. If that had been a fanny pack, then they would have gotten a penalty. The guys could have easily found the money once they looked for it. In my mind, what the girls did is the same as if they threw someone’s fanny pack in the garbage. You need to leave items that are left by the other team alone otherwise you can and should face a penalty.

When I was in my teens (I’m 65 now) and while delivering newspapers, I found a wallet. I looked inside for ID and walked the two blocks to the owner’s home to return his wallet. My parents raised me right. Too bad Twinnie never learned the difference between right and wrong.
