Kentucky Fried Weird

Have you seen this news story from - of all places - Kentucky? A couple was arrested for breaking into an elementary school to steal...urine:
[WAVE-3 TV Louisville] ARGILLITE, Ky. -- An eastern Kentucky couple is charged with going to an elementary school and trying to get a urine specimen from a nephew to use in a drug test. Authorities said Nick Kintigos, 37, and his wife, Teresa, 38, went to a school to solicit a clean urine sample to Nick Kintigos could take a drug test...Scott Brown, communications supervisor with Greenup County 911, said Nick Kintigos needed a clean urine sample from a nephew at the school to use for a drug test where he works. Brown said he was unsure where Kintigos was employed. Nick Kintigos allegedly took the boy into a restroom at the school, but the boy was unable to produce any urine, Brown said. Two other boys walked into the restroom while Kintigos was there and he asked them for urine, Brown said. The boys left the restroom and told a teacher what happened, he said.
That's pretty sorry behavior, but there must be more to this story than it appears. There was no one else these two knew that would have a clean urine sample to offer?
