Drunk Courier Loses $1.3M Painting 3
We've all misplaced our keys or wallet after a night of drinking, but art courier James Carl Haggerty wins the prize after losing a $1.3 million painting because he was drunk. According to Haggerty, Jean Baptiste Camille Corot's "Portrait of a Girl" is somewhere in New York — he just can't remember where. Kristyn Trudgeon, the majority owner of the painting, is not convinced and has sued the boozing courier. "I think he's a complete, fumbling idiot," Trudgeon said.

It's a scam to drum up publicity for the piece before a sale.
