Dumb Criminal of the Day

A man in a banana suit can be whimsical, but a man in a banana suit with an assault rifle? Not so much…

It's perfectly normal to be upset if you don't get hired at a place, but mailing them cat poop as retribution is a pretty classless, and stupid move, and it might land you in soem serious hot water.

This is not really a case of a stupid criminal, more like a big case of the "oops." A 10-year-old girl has been cited for careless driving after she rolled her mom's car right through the front wall of the Parker, Colorado DMV office.

This kid has gusto, I'll give him that, but no one is going to get away with walking out of a few Walmart stores with $30,000 in cash.

If you ever think your family has problem, just read this woman's story and you might feel a little better about your own. She is in jail for two years after creating Facebook accounts for family members and harassing herself!

When you screw up and do something stupid like drive drunk, trying to get revenge on the cop who pulled you over is probably not a smart plan. Spitting in the pizza of said cop while you're working at Pizza Hut is just plain gross.

Most criminals try to avoid cameras, for good reason. A woman in Florida stole a TV news reporter's car, and the theft was caught on the news cameras. Oops.

Cases of mistaken identity can lead to some awkward situations. Take this man for instance, he was arrested after he mistook a police officer in a pub for a stripper.

What's the perfect cover for selling drugs, handing them out in Happy Meal boxes? I'm afraid not. Undercover police arrested a McDonald’s employee in Pittsburgh after they found she was selling heroin inside the fast food restaurant's kid's meal boxes.

How does a story with no actual crime committed make the 'dumb criminals' list? Like this: A woman in Greeley called police because she was convinced that someone was stealing her generic cotton bras and replacing them with Victoria's Secret bras.

I'm not a fan of those who drink and drive, especially repeat offenders like this guy in Florida who was arrested for his 9th DUI. Guess what was his defense was when he got arrested? "Beer is my coffee".
