The Dumbest Criminals Ever

from Coffeehouse Crime · host Coffeehouse Crime

They robbed a bank and left their ID on the counter. They tried to outrun police on a bicycle. They posted their crimes on Facebook live. And then they asked: "How did they find me?"In this episode, I uncover the dumbest criminals ever caught — the ones who made law enforcement's job embarrassingly easy. From a burglar who got stuck in a chimney to a car thief who called 911 for directions, these are the moments when stupidity met swift and hilarious justice. Based on real police reports, bodycam footage, and news coverage, this episode will make you laugh, cringe, and wonder how some people survive long enough to commit crimes. Turn down the lights, put on your headphones, and press play — because criminals have never been this dumb.
