What's Mine is Mine and What's Yours is Mine

"Berger and his lawyer said Monday night he knowingly removed the handwritten notes by placing them in his jacket, pants and socks, and also inadvertently took copies of actual classified documents in a leather portfolio."

They think it's okay because they believe there are other copies of the documents. So, following that logic, if I worked at a bank and stuffed my clothes with $100 bills it wouldn't be wrong because there are more of them somewhere?

How does someone "inadvertently" take something that doesn't belong to him? If the poor man is that confused, perhaps he should be seeking medical help as well as legal consultation.
