During my travels you hear a lot of silly stories. First, I didn’t represent any of these people. Second, these stories are much better than my imagination can provide. And finally, if you ever find yourself wanting to violate the law, please reconsider. Over the next several weeks, I have four crime stories that will make you scratch your head.
Story number 1: Trying to hit the lottery
A suspect breaks the window of a liquor store. The suspect probably didn’t think about the situation too clearly because blood is found on the window sill. Either the person cut his or her hand on the window while breaking it, or the broken glass cut the suspect on the way in. The suspect didn’t wear gloves leaving DNA and finger prints everywhere.
Once inside, the suspect looks for valuable items to take. The suspect takes some alcohol and rummages through an empty cash register. Finally, the suspect comes up with a great idea of taking scratch tickets and lottery tickets. The problem is that the tickets are numbered and once they are cashed in, the police will know what store cashed the winning tickets. Moreover, most convenience stores will have cameras.
When the person cashed the winning tickets the police had his face on tape. In the end, the fingerprints were enough to track the person down, but the police were able to retrieve the tape from the store that cashed the scratch ticket. The suspect gave the police plenty of evidence to find and to later prosecute him. This definitely wasn’t one of the best thought out crimes. If you think this story is silly, just wait as the stories get progressively worse.
