Tips for Stupid Criminals #5

[rootbear75]

Because you never know when one of these guys might pay attention.

 

Today's Tip: Try to stay fresh.

 

Burglar "Rob" lurked on the streets of Amsterdam. Make no mistake, it's a strenuous gig: all that skulking, sneaking, and burgling is very physical work. And it had its effect on Rob.

 

In August 2003, he snuck into a nice old lady's house and stole some of her jewelry. But then all his theivery sapped him of his will to go on. The nice old lady's sofa beckoned, so cozy, so soft. Rob lay down and within minutes was off in a refreshing slumber.

 

Refreshing that is, until he found himself being nudged awake by the cops; the nice old lady had found him snoozing on the sofa and made the call. Lying there on the sofa, the old woman's jewelry still in his hands, Rob didn't even bother to try to come up with an excuse for being in someone else's house with someone else's property. He just owned up to the theft and gave himself up. We hope he'll get some rest in jail.

[ESCANDAL0SA]

"I tripped and fell through the door grabbing the jewelry on the way down to try and support myself and hit my head on the sofa. I wasnt asleep, i was unconcious"

With things like this at least it makes it obvious how these people turn to crime, too stupid to do anything else

[Tiq]

I don't think you are appreciating the amount of physical activity it takes to walk into a home and steal jewelry, Dav. Maybe he was on the verge of cramping up. That sofa must have looked mighty inviting. Or maybe he was planning to get a quick !@#$%^&* in, and fell asleep on the job. Such things happen if you get lost in your imaginations.

theivery-not Why= The woman's jewelry did not leave her home. (Attempted theivery)=2 yrs Probation in canada

He was in here home with out her permission thats a sentance.
