Saturday, in Holiday Florida, Rebekah Michal Tracht-Kader was summoned over in her car after not stopping for a stop sign.
When the police officers approached Rebehah, they reported that they could smell alcohol and marijuana coming from her person.
Rebekah also had the tell tale signs of red eyes and her speech was slurred. When they gave her the breathing test, she was far over the limit for beining able to drivie a car. They gave her two test to be sure of the results.
Then when the policemen did a routine search of her car, they discovered a green plastic box that had marijuana in it. It was also marked "Rebekah's pot."
Now this has to be one of the dumbest criminal stories yet.
Andrew Bonertz had been drinking all night. The young man, 20 years of age, was very busy Thursday night into Friday morning.
First he decided to steal a pick up truck. He went for a fun non-caring ride and got it wedged in mud.
He then stole a case to a laptop, a rather expensive case from a vehicle parked nearby.
Later that morning, he was seen checking out other peoples mailboxes and going through their mail.
When police questioned him about going through other people's mailboxes, they noticed that his footprints looked just like the ones they found along side the stolen pick up. As they found out more and more what he had done that evening and morning, he confessed to all the crimes.
He is suppose to have told officers that he stole the laptop case so "so he could carry his six-pack of beer in it."
Andrew has been charged with numerous charges. They include burglary, larceny, criminal mischief and he even attempted to steal someones identy.
He has been listed also as one of the dumbest crooks of the week. So far there is no charge for that crime in Connecticut.
If you are out driving drunk, and you have an accident or loose control of car and run off the road, you may want to be careful what door you knock on for help.
In Clinton, Tennessee recently, a man did end up off the road. He was supposedly drunk and it was 1:30 in the mornng.
The man decided to knock the door of a house close by. What he didn't know, was it was the home of one of the area policemen.
The officer, Jennings Foust called the local police to assist the driver, Aaron D. McMurry.
When a local officer, Deputy Charles Faircloth arrived at Foust's home, he parked his car and proceeded to where Aaron and Jennings were talking.
Faircloth said that he could smell the alcohol as he got our of his police car.
Aaron admitted to having four or five beers. He took a breath analizer test and it should a count of 0.22. That is quite a bit higher then the limit of 0.08 in Tennessee which is considered drunk.
Aaron tried saying he has Asthma and needs to drink a lot;
Warren Strickland, a 31 year old male from Alaska, was not happy with his taco.
Warren went through the Taco Bell drive through in his car two times to try and get the right order.
He wanted a two layer taco. The last time he tried to get his taco done right, he complained to the manager and said it had spit in it.
The manager wasn't cooperative with his complaint and mentioned that Warren only wanted some free food. Warren then threw his two layered taco at the manager.
Warren must now pay a $100 fine after saying he did do it for disorderly behavior.
He also has to spend a day in jail and is on probation for a year. While on probation, if he wants a taco, someone else will have to get it for him. He isn't allowed to visit Taco Bell while on probation.
The 54 year old man must have been really down on his luck. So down that he couldn't even afford a decent ski mask or some other type of mask to rob a gas station.
On Monday evening, Larry Bernard, went into the Franklin, In Clark Oil gas station wearing ladies panites over his face. He was also carrying a 12 inch knife. A kitchen style knife.
He held a patron of the station while he asked for the money, stole smokes and a lighter then he fled the scene.
The panties did not provide much of a mask. Larry was very easy to distinguish.Police set up a watch close by Larry's house. They found Larry barely able to walk and drunk along with the knife stuck into his waistband. The police also found the stolen items in his pockets.
Since there were no cameras set up at the gas station to give a clear picture of how Larry looked with the panties on, they have used advanced technology to recreate the look to let us know how Larry may have appeared that Monday evening.
Who would want to steal a totem pole from a park in Seattle Washington.
Someone did. The 18 foot tall pole was found to be missing one day last week. The very special pole was given to the West Seattle park by the Rotary Club of West Seattle back in 1976. At this time to replace the pole it could have cost nearly $75,000.
A man, 69 years of age, apparently notified the investigation task force of the where abouts of the pole. He is from West Seattle and for some reason had a crane and workers to move the pole to Salem Oregon. The pole was later found on a boat trailer in a parking lot located in the Salem area.
The pole is fine and will be returned to it's proper place.
Charges for the disappearing totem pole against the man are being determined.

It sounds like a movie. The burgulars escavated a tunnel they could crawl through from the house to the buisness they planned on robbing. Then during the last game of the Champions Ship games, they broke into the business and stole $6 million dollars.
All the noise they made as they completed the job on the day of the game were thought to be from the celebrating of the game. It was the most exciting game that the city has been a part of for a long time.
A club in Rio de Janeiro, Flamengo, took the championship.
The robbers were living in the rental house next to the business for many months. They escavated a 490 foot long tunnel to the business. They also pretended to live in the house. They even decorated for Christmas to keep suspicions away.
