Robber loses his wallet at crime scene, asks for it back

by vipergtsrz at 10:38 AM Share your /facepalm story

Some guy from Little Rock, AR attempted to rob a woman in her home, and somehow dropped his wallet in the process. Obviously that would seem like the worst mistake a robber could make, but the really dumb thing he did was call the victim and tell her he wanted his wallet back. The victim was being interviewed by the police at the time, so obviously, he was caught when he showed up to get it back.

I'm assuming the robber knew the victim in some way considering he knew the vicitm's phone number.

Reminds me of when the bank robbers called ahead of time before they robbed the bank.

Bank Robbery /facepalm

by vipergtsrz at 12:03 PM Share your /facepalm story

If you were to rob a bank, probably the most important thing you would care about is speed and efficiency. There are many ways to be speedy during a bank robbery, but one thing I would not recommend is calling ahead of time to make sure they have the money ready for you to steal.

These two would-be robbers in Connecticut called the bank ahead of time and told them to have the money ready for them to pick up for the robbery. There's really not too much to say about this one considering it's pretty obvious how dumb these two guys are. I can't believe they actually showed up.

Back in jail again over a $3.37 beer

by Admin at 01:56 PM Share your /facepalm story

This 19-year-old guy from Quebec got thrown back in jail for 60 days after stealing a $3.37 beer from a local store. The /facepalm in the story is that he was stealing the beer to celebrate getting out of jail that day. Why was he in jail, you ask? He was convicted of petty theft several times before this and was sentenced to 8 months prior to this event.

What I don't get is that the courts wanted to give him the lightest sentance they could, which was 60 days. If the guy just spent 8 months in jail and the first thing he does when he gets out is go and steal a beer, I don't think he learned his lesson. I'd lock him up for a couple years and see if he understands then.

Burglar gets what he desrves from Craigslist

by vipergtsrz at 12:41 PM Share your /facepalm story

According to the NY Post a burglar got caught by posting what he stole on Craig's List.

The victim had his tires and rims stolen from his car that was parked on the street overnight. Even though he was obviously bummed about it, he had to get new wheels. He went to Craig's List to find replacements and saw his wheels being sold by the guy who stole them.

He contacted the "seller" and the police and had everyone meet at the same location. He got his wheels back and the thief is now in jail.

It's not usual to get things back that are stolen like that, so this is a pretty sweet story. I love when the bad guy gets his comeuppance.

Police Complaint Facepalm

by vipergtsrz at 07:01 AM Share your /facepalm story

A man called the police because he didn't get what he paid for when he tried to hire a prostitute. He says that he paid two people to have sex with him, but they did not "deliver as advertised".

Maybe it isn't clear enough to some people that prostitution is illegal. Maybe he should have called the Better Business Bureau instead.
