KIIS FM producer Pete Deppeler has been caught stealing fruit deliveries meant for Kyle Sandilands and Jackie O Henderson

KIIS FM producer Pete Deppeler has been caught stealing from The Kyle and Jackie O show.

The talent manager, better known as ‘intern Pete’, was caught red-handed stealing boxes of fruit and vegetables donated to the radio show.

His lies were exposed live on air by his colleague Cooper Johns, who captured a video of Pete secretly collecting the delivery and taking it to his own car.

It emerged that for two years Pete had been secretly taking home $100 worth of fruit boxes every week, despite them being intended for Kyle Sandilands, Jackie O Henderson and their team.

Kylie and Jackie were stunned to discover that Pete had taken the boxes for himself and urged him to repay the fruiterer for the deliveries – which totaled a whopping $10,400.

Pete revealed that he had shared the fruit with his friends and neighbors instead of handing it out to the team working on The Kyle and Jackie O show as the fruit man had intended.

When Kyle and Jackie saw the video of the theft, they were shocked by the size of the box as they shared their disappointment that he had not told the team about it.

Jackie said: ‘I honestly think this is one of the worst things you’ve done. I’m not kidding, I’m not trying to make you feel bad, but what you’ve done is bad.’

While Kyle added: ‘Gee Peter that’s a bad thing. I may not be able to save you from this photographic evidence of theft.’

Asked what was in the box, Pete explained: ‘It’s usually a nice box – bananas, avocados, blueberries, strawberries, a few cartons of eggs, bits and pieces.’

Pete insisted he never approached the fruiterer for the freebies, but took him up on an offer when he shared his regrets about his decision after the truth was revealed.

It was revealed live on the air that for two years Pete had been secretly taking home $100 worth of boxes of fruit every week instead of sharing them with the radio crew as the fruit man had intended.

It was revealed that Pete had even told the fruiterer that Kyle and Jackie had enjoyed the produce, despite not even knowing about the boxes.

Jackie admitted she was ‘disappointed’ that Pete had stolen the deliveries as she and Kyle asked him to pay the fruit man back.

“You’re constantly risking your job here, you’re constantly squirreling away tiny little wins, you’ve got a mean streak in you young man,” Kyle shuddered.

The radio hosts then urged him to speak up about any other deceptions, insisting that he would not get into trouble if he revealed the truth.

Kyle said: ‘If something like this comes up again you’d be fired immediately. So you risk your job now, but you have a get out of jail free card. You must come clean now and you will get away with it.’

“If we find out later, you’ll have to be let go,” Jackie added.

But Pete insisted there were no other deceptions, telling them: ‘I wouldn’t risk my job, there’s no way I’d risk my job on this one.’
