What not to do after a robbery

Hi Ms. Margaret,

I'm just being a bit self-deprecatory - especially after having caused so many problems for Master Krummhorn. I had committed a grievous *no-no* with out realising it. Thankfully, Master Krummhorn was so merciful about my infraction.

Cheers,

This one I had to laugh at.

Two suspected robbers - dubbed the "thong bandits" after using women's knickers to disguise their faces - have given themselves up in Colorado, US.
Joaquin Rico, 19, and Joseph Espinoza, 24, are accused of stealing cash and cigarettes from a shop in Arvada last month.
CCTV pictures show two men, wearing skimpy underwear on their heads, carrying out the robbery. The garments barely covered their faces making them easily recognisable.

And they still do daft things.

A would-be bank robber ended up having to be rescued by police after his smash and grab raid went wrong.

The man stole a cash machine by levering it from the wall of a bank in Leavenworth, Kansas, with a forklift truck.

He then drove it to a 50ft cliff to drop it off in the hope of breaking it open, but the truck followed it down and he lay trapped in the wreckage until help arrived.

Do I feel sorry for him? as if.

Snow has its advantages in solving crime too, a thief robbed the safe at a leisure centre in Durham, setting off the alarm in the local police station, all they had to do was follow his footprints in the newly fallen snow back to his house.

An electrical store near my home was recently broken into via the plate glass window. An expensive vacuam cleaner was stolen. The police follow the trail of broken glass across the road to a house............ and bagged the thief. You could not make it up.

Teddles,

Thanx for the comic relief. I've had an awfully busy day today, so it was good to read your posting.

No no CD. Not the rozzers, nutters. The people who seem to inhabit the streets almost everwhere who do crazy things.

There is a story in today's paper about a robber who tried to hold up a bank with a toy pistol. Unfortunately for him the bank had closed twenty years earlier. He told a court in Germany "It was a big disappointment to find it wasn't a bank." He got seven years in jail, it makes you wonder what planning he did, none by the sounds of it.

Planning? What is that in regards to a bank heist? Such events today is just plain vanilla terrorism with a "little" money thrown in for good measure. Quite a few "perps" have been inspired by what they have seen on the Silver Screen and then try to recreate it - Stupid is as Stupid does........

Bingo! Few, very few, if any perps have the acumen, resources, or discipline necessary to conduct an "operation". Doing such an operation without casualties is nary impossible. Today a perp will get "pocket-change" for their "efforts" - And a Federal sentence with no chance of parole, if my memory serves me........

Most criminals over here do not get a prison sentence. They are usually traeted as if they are the victims.
