Criminals

Nov 28, 2008 11:40

It occurred to me that there are two firm rules that criminals should take to heart and never violate, since breaking them inevitably leads to getting caught.

1. Never, ever, leave around any evidence that could connect you to the crime, or lead the authorities to you;
2. Never, ever, tell anyone what you've done.

Seems that lots of crooks love to break rule #2 by bragging about their crime to friends or other criminals. Obviously if you have to team up with other criminals to commit the crime, you have to ensure that these other guys do not themselves break rule 2.

Anyone ever watch that show Masterminds that was on Court TV? Seems like most of those guys ended up breaking one (or both) of the rules, which got them nabbed.
