Knuckle-Heads!

A coworker and I got to talking today about an interesting news story. Apparently, there was some sort of vandal who was spraying graffiti on cars (I think) … The “interesting” note about the story is that he got caught when cops found a digital camera in his car with pictures of each of the cars he vandalized … I mean this has “wet-bandits” written all over it (look it up).

It amazes me how some people can just be that stupid. I mean, there had to be a point that this guy had to have thought to himself, “is this really the smartest thing to be doing?.” Am I right? Or, is this guy missing a chromosome … or gray matter?

My coworker had a similar event happen to his neighbor just a few days before. Some kids had driven by and spray-painted “420” on the side of his white van. Nobody got a good view of the vehicle or the perpetrators, but thanks to sheer stupidity that even O.J. would wince at, one of the kids got caught. How? I’m glad ya asked! Apparently, they found his ID on the ground near one of the cars that was vandalized. I guess stupidity knows no bounds sometimes.

This story reminded me of one I heard in which somebody held-up a potential victim and asked for all his money. The “victim” said he didn’t have any money but he could write him a check. The robber gladly agreed to this, and ended up trying to cash the check … he was apprehended immediately.

If you have any interesting stories to tell, please, share!

This guy isn't any dumber than Pacman Jones visiting a strip club on the way to his NFL suspension hearing.

Great story from about a month ago: Tennessee state trooper pulled over an erratic driver, found out she was a porn star, demanded a BJ (in exchange for ignoring her drugs), took pictures, then bragged to his fellow cops about it. Yep, he couldn't keep his fool mouth shut and got fired.

It makes you wonder if there isn't some 'stupid farm' that raises these people like tobacco.

I love the one about a bunch of people in a small town getting their windows broken at night - after a police stakeout they found the owner of the new window shop (only one in town!) on a rooftop shooting windows out.
I love dumb criminal stories!
