From Cell Phone To Jail Cell

Man, rapists are getting dumber and dumber. We’ve talked about the guy who raped a girl, then came back an hour later and asked to be let back in, the one who gave his victim his phone number, and now Timothy West, who broke into a woman’s house, repeatedly raped her, then took her phone …

Give Me All Your Money Or I’ll…Liven You Up With A Rich Creamy Taste!

Wow. Now robbers are using bottles of dressing as weapons, and not even bottles of dressing they brought with them. They just grab one off the store shelf and hold it like a gun. Too bad the person who he aimed the dressing at had an actual gun. I did have to chuckle that the …

Slip, Drop And Die

Usually the punishment for burglary isn’t death, but for Donald Zakrzewski, that was the punishment he brought on himself. The story goes that he broke into a house, and stole some jewellery and electronics. As he was finishing up, the homeowner came home, so he made a break for it. There he was, running through …

Their Scheme Faded Just Like The Ink

If only we’d had a blog back in 1996. If we had, this story of two teenagers trying to write bad cheques in invisible ink would be so up here. But then again, I didn’t even have an email address in 1996, and the word blog didn’t exist. But this appeared in Snopes yesterday and …

Push Faster! Faster!

Can you imagine witnessing this jewellery store robbery? Security camera footage shows 44-year-old Noemi Duchene and 45-year-old Luis Del Castillo arrive outside of Estate & New Jewelry late Tuesday morning with Del Castillo pushing Duchene in her wheelchair. Duchene then gets out of her chair, covers her head and upper body with a large black …

I Was Just Trying To Keep The Cops On Their Tows

I have to give Oneil N. Swaby a few points for creativity, and I also have to wonder how it is that more people haven’t thought ofthis.And yes, because it’s kind of stupid is a fair answer. According to a release from Hillside police Lt. Vincent Ricciardi, Oneil N. Swaby, 21, first tried to steal …

What’s The Crime? They Were Just Taking Out The Trash.

We have another story about a dude hiding in a dumpster and then getting dumped in a trash truck, but this guy didn’t die. I refuse to say that he was luckier than our compacted prison escapee because he’s in critical condition, and I’m sure it wasn’t pleasant to be compacted several times. It all …

And They Haven’t Bagged Him Yet?

this amazingly successful robber wouldn’t usually get the master criminals tag, but I think he needs it. He decided to rob a Circle K and put something over his face to disguise or distort it. But he chose a clear plastic bag. What have we been told since we were little about putting bags over …

There’s Too Much Meat In Those Pants

I first read this story because it involved a dude stuffing 8 steaks down his pants and running off with them, and I thought he might have had a less than pleasant encounter with a police dog. But oh no, that didn’t happen. What did happen was pretty funny. A store employee noticed that the …
