If you steal a Mobile phone, why would you even answer it when it rings?

Worse yet, why even steal a mobile phone? They practically give the damned things away nowadays.

Reckon you just threw that on the pile, then, hm?

I used to work security at a local community college. I responded to a complaint about a burglary at one of the small buildings that had instructor offices. I get there and have to tell the instructor to stay the hell out until the Deputy gets there. One lady who was already in the office pointed out things that were out of place until the Deputy showed up. One of the phones was moved about a foot across the desk so I advised the Deputy. He dusted for prints and found some fresh ones. I suggested he use *69 to see if they had used it and sure enough they had called home to get help. Deputies arrested 3 guys at their house with all the computers they stole still in their living room.

I saw an episode of Max TV on spike where this guy walks into a convience store, puts a 20 on the counter and asks for change. When the clerk opened the register the guy pulled a gun and demanded all the money from the register, the clerk gave him the $12.33 and then the guy ran off without picking up the 20 from the counter.

Does it even count as a crime if they pull a gun on you and then give you money?

cross-thread reference FTW!

A good larf.

There are similar stories, I'm sure you've heard them, of such criminals getting themselves stuck in a bank, because they kept trying to push a "pull" door, when an employee triggered the alarm. Arrested within minutes still trying to escape.

Ok this criminal is hilarious.

True story

Worked at EB Games, and whenever there was a new realease, this guy would come in with a buncha new games to trade in for cash. Well it seemed too suspicious(sp) but what can we do? We can't refuse a trade in if we have the dough. He's trading in like 4 copies each time of the same game which is extremeley suspicious(sp). One day I asked him, and he told me he just bought these games and his x-box (one day it was x-box) or ps2(yup that was the second time) broke. Well i told him to come and trade them in(we take in broken systems) and he's like no he's got a friend who can fix em for free. So I was like why trade these in then? He just gets lost for words and I finish the transaction. so he keeps coming in, we get good trade in credits for our district and then one day at another store the guy gets nailed. Turns out the games were from Best Buy and his brother or his siste (or maybe she's his wife idk) worked there and stole em. Man it was hilarious the games we would play with this guy. He could not walk out without losing 5 lbs from sweating.
