Quote History Quoted:
I remember the bank robber who wrote a hold up note on the back of one of his personalized deposit slips. The cops drove right to his house.
Or the woman bank robber who wore a see through shirt so no one would remember what her face looked like. The cameras weren't titty cams, they recorded her face.
You just can't fix stupid, but you sure as hell can laugh at it.

A couple of years ago I had jury duty. I ended up being the token on the jury, the only white male. I thought I had dodged it when they released all unselected jurors, then they called us back in, and called names again, and I was now on the list.
Anyway, the guy was on trial for strongarm robbery, which is robbery while not armed, but claiming to be armed (note said he had a gun in his pocket and would start shooting). The guy was up for two counts of robbery, he robbed two grocery stores, with a partner. The guy was a drug dealer, and his partner was a junky who owed him money, he had the junky go to the grocery stores and rob them. They went to a first store, and he sent the junky in alone but the junky chickened out, so on the next two he went in and stood right behind the junky with his hand in his pocket acting like he had a gun.
They were smart, and decided to use the Western Union forms from the little stand next to the customer service desk, and the dumbass filled out the forms completely, giving his actual address, and not one but two good phone numbers to reach him.
Yes, he was guilty on both charges, he got 15 years each. When you hear that a mostly black female jury is more sympathetic to young black men, you are hearing wrong. The black women were ready to convict him and get it over with the second we sat down to deliberate.
