How later courts describe this case
- departure for aberrant behavior by defendant, who stole $80,000 which he received by bank error.
- failure of motion counsel to timely file a Rule 29.15 motion resulted in no prejudice since the outcome would have been the same even with a timely filed motion
- single act of aberrant behavior may justify downward departure
