When Two Brain Cells Fight For 3rd Place
from Red Tree Crime Hosted by Red Tree Crime
A man tries to break into a house. He uses a crowbar. The crowbar slips. He hits himself in the face. He falls off the ladder. He lands on a garden gnome. The gnome breaks. The neighbor hears the noise. The neighbor calls police. The man is arrested sitting in the garden, bleeding, holding the broken gnome. He asks the officer if he can keep the gnome. In this episode, I examine the dumbest criminals ever caught on tape. A woman tries to rob a convenience store. She hands the cashier a note demanding money. The note is written on the back of her own paycheck. Her name and address are printed on the front. A man steals a car. He drives it to his girlfriend's house. He parks it in her driveway. The car belongs to her neighbor. The neighbor recognizes the car. The man is arrested eating breakfast. The episode breaks down the psychology of criminals who seem to be competing for the lowest IQ score. They are often impulsive, overconfident, and completely unaware of how stupid they look. The interrogation footage is a comedy goldmine. The suspect insists he is innocent while wearing a shirt with his name embroidered on the chest. He offers alibis that are disproven by his own social media posts. He asks the detective for advice on how to beat the case. Turn down the lights, put on your headphones, and press play because when two brain cells fight for third place, the result is always entertaining.
