Indeed I have been lazy, but it is Friday and true to Friday fashion, we have some silly crime stories.

Before we go to our overseas stories, we have to mention our own police commissioner's glowing pride when he mentioned, with a puffed out chest, that due to the police destroying firearms, more people are being killed by knives....seriously. I love the smell of success.

Our first story comes from Martinsburg, Pennsylvania.
It seems even criminals are not beyond the addiction of Facebook. Jonathan Parker was in the middle of robbing jewellrey from a home, when he suddenly had an urge to log into facebook. Now, it is not mentioned whether he was updating his status ('I am cleaning out a house') or picking his fruit on Farmville, but he bright spark forgot to log off after his session.

Obviously when the owners and then the Police came, there were all his details and fromthere it was not difficult to find him.That is why you are warned not to put too many of your details on your Facebook page- you never know who may want to find you.

Our second story is from Crestview in the States. Crestview police pulled over a truck for speeding and not remaining in one lane.
Once stopped, they notice the driver, 25 year old, Jason Miles (pictured above in his snazzy jail orange outfit)  was nervous and smelled like marijuana. Asked if he had anything illegal in the truck, he honestly blurted out, 'I have got $2000 worth of weed in the truck'.
Upon searching, officers found 110 grams of the magic herb, together with scales and peach cigars.
He went on to admit to selling wacky weed, but only on weekends as he was a full time student.
He was quoted as saying, 'You don't know how much weed I smoke'
Would love to see his results at the end of the year.

Lastly we have an accolade. It goes to a certain William Bradley Bankston from Mobil County, who has a proud record of being arrested, for various, charges, 97 times in 29 years. Most of the arrests come from the good old booze, disorderly conduct, assault and so on. Above are pics of the over achiever and if there are any woman who would like to know, yes, he is single.
 Wow- nothing I say can do this guy justice.
