Bozo criminal for today comes from Chehalis, Washington where bozo Eugenio Cortes had to appear in court. For reasons known only to the bozo mind, he brought along his marijuana stash and, just before entering, he hid it in the shrubbery in front of the courthouse. Unfortunately for him, the shrub he chose to hide his stash in was directly underneath the window belonging to county detectives, who saw what he was doing. He was busted as he entered the building.
Bozo criminals for today come from Chicago, Illinois where three bozos broke into a shoe store and told the employees to lay down on the floor and keep quiet. Our bozos then went about their business, looking for just the right shoes in their sizes. When one of them would find a style he liked, he would shout out the size he needed so the other bozos could help him look for it. Sounds like an OK plan, except for one thing. All the noise and shouting of sizes alerted workers in the back store room that something was amiss. They called the cops who arrived before our bozos had finished shopping.
Bozo criminal for today comes from New York City where bozo Calvin Solly was trying to sell some counterfeit money. Lots of it. $4 million in $100 bills. He was having a tough time getting anyone to buy because the bills were white paper. Totally blank. He did have a classic bozo story to explain it all. He said the bills were intended to be foreign aid for the country of Sierra Leone and had been dyed white to prevent the money couriers from being robbed. He said the paper would be revealed as actual money when placed between two real $100 bills. Not surprisingly, he attracted the attention of the FBI who placed him under arrest.

When an officer approached him, he ran, climbing a nearby fence and then jumping onto the roof of the adjacent building. He ran across the roof and then attempted to jump over to the building next door. No matter how easy this looks in the movies, it’s tough in real life. He fell a little short and found himself stuck in an enclosed courtyard area between the two buildings. He had to wait patiently while the fire department ladder truck was brought in to free him. He’ll be heading to jail after he’s released from the hospital.

When he was asking his victim to turn over his valuables, our bozo should also have asked him for his cell phone. He didn’t and the guy used it to call the cops from inside the trunk, giving them a description of both the car and our bozo. The cops tracked him down and placed him under arrest.

When the phone’s owner reported the theft to the police, one officer decided to try something. He called the number and when our bozo answered, he told him that he’s just won a case of beer…and if he’d just give him the address he’d deliver it. He did. Our bozo didn’t get his beer but he did get a free ride to jail.

Bozo criminal for today comes from Norwalk, Connecticut where bozo Amahl Carter stole a vehicle from a car dealer a little over a month ago. He had been denied a test drive because of bad credit, and as he was walking away, he spotted a car on the lot with the keys in it and simply drove off. He had not been seen since, until this week when he showed up at the same dealership, driving the stolen car. He told the sales manager he wanted to trade up for a larger vehicle. Instead, he’s traded for something smaller…a jail cell.
Bozo criminal for today comes from Dallas, Texas where three bozos carjacked a man and told him to drive to his bank to get cash. He said his credit union had an ATM at DFW airport, where he worked. Our bozos said fine, drive over there. When they arrived, he informed them the ATM was inside, past airport security. They agreed to wait outside while he went in to retrieve the cash. Bad idea. He instead retrieved the cops who arrested all three of our patiently waiting bozos.
Bozo criminal for today comes from Holiday, Florida where bozo John Anderson lost control of his vehicle and plowed into a residence. He walked away from the accident before the police arrived, leaving one of his shoes behind in the vehicle. A short time later, while the officers were investigating, our bozo walked up, looking quite a bit the worse for wear. His face was bloody, like he had smashed it into the steering wheel, he was wearing only his boxer shorts and was barefoot. He initially denied any involvement, but the vehicle was registered to his home address. And when an officer asked him to try on the shoe, it was a perfect fit. Just like Cinderella, that sealed the deal. He’s under arrest.

Bozo criminals for today come from Weston, Florida where police officers noticed our bozos acting suspiciously. When questioned, they told the cops they were going fishing in the Everglades. They even showed them their fishing poles to prove it. Which might have been a good idea except for one thing. Those fishing poles had no lines attached to them. This led the officers to take a look around their fishing hole, where they found five marijuana plants ready for planting and a shovel and potting soil to do just that. And instead of bait in their car, the cops found a partially smoked marijuana cigarette. Busted!
