A pretty pricey potty

Because I really can't say it any better myself, here's the start of a St. Louis Post Dispatch story about an unusual find at a county jail:

It was not the kind of paper you'd expect to find by a toilet.

A St. Louis County jail employee found bundles of cash stuffed behind a tissue dispenser in a prisoner booking area restroom, and officials counted out $55,000 in $50 and $100 bills. 

Officials conducted interviews with inmates, but apparently no one claimed the dough.

"We really don't know where it came from, so I guess you could consider any possibility," Clayton Police Chief Thomas Byrne told the paper.
