I've Decided I like Facebook
« on: September 27, 2015, 07:43:39 PM »
as long as this kind of stuff keeps happening on it (but no, I will still not sign up).

http://www.foxnews.com/us/2015/09/27/cops-say-facebook-photos-led-to-couple-arrest-in-ohio-bank-robbery/?intcmp=hpbt3

Also, if a guy is wearing a hoodie in the bank, shouldn't the bank security guard be walking up right behind him the second he walks through the doors (or beforehand if the guard is outside, like at my bank)? This hoodie stuff happens all the time. If I were a bank employee, my first thought regarding anyone with a hoodie on their head inside the bank, would be "bank robber".

Funny about the hoodie=robber idea.
I did notice every building  went into in Bermuda had a sign saying remove helmet (everyone rides scooters)before entering building.

Ben, we signed up for you and take turns running your sock-puppet account.

I thought you knew?

BTW, your cousin says "hi."

Then you're a racist.

Also, had the bank a security guard? 'Round here some banks have 'em. Some don't. (Unless they're plainclothes.)


Love the details on the Farcebook photos. :rofl:

Did they say "hi", or "heil"?

My bank has a "security guard." His job is to sit in his car in the parking lot so he can write down the license plate number of a robber's car.

Yes, seriously.

By contrast, the Bank of America branch a half mile away has an armed guard in black Ninja pajamas standing at the door.

My bank has been robbed twice in the past eighteen months. The BoA branch? Never in living memory.

Anyone else find the name of the county jail a bit humorous if not ironic. :rofl:

Mogan had just been paroled in July after serving a prison stretch for a 2010 bank robbery that took place in a town near Ashville
What are the odds he will get out on parole again? 

Did this guy even have a gun or weapon at all?  Is it really that much better to simply hand over money due to a note?  It just sounds like they are banking on the honor system.

Plus having face tattoos makes it easier for the teller to ID you.

Err, he was a little smarter (.000000000000000000000000000000000000001%) than you give him credit for.  From the OP link:

So how many banks did you and your friends knock over as high school pranks?

I always loved arresting burglars, armed robbers, purse snatchers inter alia when I was in LE many moons ago.  The look on their faces when they realized they were screwed was always a joy. :police:

Last time I was involved in an investigation, they did a photo lineup. Care to guess where they got the photo of the suspect?
