Tough Time for Crime

Crime is tough and sometimes criminals just need a break. But, before taking that much needed break, criminals should make sure that they have completed their not so planned out task.

It has been quite the month for criminals and their inability to use common sense or logic.

Let’s look at wanted fugitive Jermaine Askia Cooper, the man just really wanted a burrito. Can you blame the man? He had already earned himself a one way ticket to prison for multiple felony charges.

As a last resort, the man led police officers on a 90 mph chase across two counties. His goal? To eat that one last meal as a free man.

Under the false hope of having escaped from the clutches of the law, the man made a quick stop at the local Taco Bell. Upon arrest the man confessed that he indeed wanted to get his hands on that last tasty delicious burrito.

Well at least Cooper knew he was bound to end up in jail. However, not all criminals are as wise. One man attempted to shoplift a bottle of liquor from a liquor store and for a few minutes he had successful done just that.

However, with an obvious bottle of liquor in his pants, the man made one last stop on his way out the door. He filled out a raffle ticket in hopes of winning the grand prize, a ticket to a Slinger Speedway race. Sadly, the criminal did not count on the fact that the raffle had already concluded and that raffle box was empty. Needless to say, the man won himself a one way ticket to jail.

Now, some criminals have all the luck, but none was luckier than 34 year old Maurice Powledge. The man was arrested three times in four days for stealing a hefty $29 from Wal-Mart in the form of a camera. After countless escapes from the law, the man was finally captured on the fourth day.

Seriously? What are these criminals thinking? These have got to be some of the dumbest criminals in the history of crime.
