Least Competent Criminals

Police in Chesterfield Township, Mich., arrested Calvin Fluckes Jr., 21, in December after he tried to cash a counterfeit check for $848 at a Wal-Mart. Fluckes was apparently oblivious of the approximately 80 uniformed police officers who were in the store for a charity event and whose cruisers Fluckes had to pass when he parked his car in the Wal-Mart lot. According to a police lieutenant, "(Fluckes) was immediately apprehended."

Marshall Byers, 28, was arrested in Everett, Wash., in December, and charged with the attempted murder of his estranged wife's boyfriend (who was treated for five knife wounds). According to prosecutors, Byers was surprised at the "attempted" charge. Allegedly, he told a detective, "What? I thought I stuck him like a pig. What do you mean, he's alive?"

Also Should Have Kept His Mouth Shut: Jeremy Lyons, 20, was arrested in Hanover Township, Pa., in October for an alleged vandalism spree, bashing car windows with a baseball bat. A local TV station had carried a story of the arrest of another person, and Lyons for some reason called the station and, laughing, told them they had the wrong man. He was arrested when the call was traced.

If one can't learn from the mistakes of others why bother letting them live?

Speaking of the Darwin awards....

Darwin, Northern Territory, Australia (Sir Loin reporting...)

The government in the N.T. have just bought in speed limits for it's three major highways. Until now the Northern Territory has been the only place in Australia with no open road speed limit. TRUE!!

Now they have a limit of 130 kph / 80 mph. The locals are revolting--> http://keepntlimitfree.org/ <--


Segueying back to the Darwin awards, in 1994 they held a legal (and Government promoted!) Cannon Ball Run down the Sturt Highway. A Japanese dentist killed himself, his passenger, and two race officals, when he spun off the narrow two lane bitumen outback road at a gazillion MPH in a new Ferrari.
