He rushed over to the transfer station around 2 p.m. — about three hours after he dropped his trash there — knowing the chances of finding the rings were slim to none.As he told the workers there what happened, Butler appeared “a little frantic,” said Senibaldi, the general services director for the town.“If I can narrow it down, we might be able to find your trash bag.”In the surveillance footage, “you could see when I dropped it off, when the tractor picked it up and put it into the trailer, and it pinpointed roughly where it was in the trailer,” said Butler.“I lost my mind, and I gave him a big hug.”“I was really happy for the guy,” Senibaldi said, adding that it took about 30 minutes to recover the jewelry.He quickly called his wife, who was at an appointment while they were searching, “and she was ecstatic.”He offered the crew money — “whatever I had in my pocket,” he said — but they wouldn’t accept it."
