Mario, the owner of the auto body shop, promises Jeff that the car will be ready in three days. However, the day after Jeff leaves the car in Mario's care, A.J. offers Mario $75,000 for the car.

Jeff owns a vintage 1947 Corvette. Mario, an auto body mechanic, sees the car and tells Jeff that for $100 he can soup up the engine. Jeff decides to take Mario up on his offer and he leaves the car with Mario. What Jeff does not know is that Mario is not really a mechanic and that Mario has no intention of souping up the car. Instead, Mario plans on selling the car to his friend A.J., which he does for $75,000. If Mario is charged with embezzlement, he will probably be: Acquitted, because he came into possession of the car unlawfully Acquitted, because he sold the car for market value Convicted, because he sold the car without Jeff’s permission Convicted, because he kept the money he made from the sale
