6 – Trevor Jones Goes Stealing, Leaves Facebook Page Open
Sometimes, it is best for a criminal just to run away before the police catch him. Unfortunately for Trevor Jones, he was one determined and idiotic burglar.
This hilarious caper began when Jones decided to rob the house of Samantha White and leave his car in her driveway. White just happened to come home while Jones was inside and when she spotted a strange car outside her house and her front door wide open, she wisely decided not to go in.
It is hard to know what was going through Jones’ head when he decided to go stealing that day because he left his wallet and car keys in his vehicle. White took them and also phoned the police. When Jones returned to his car with the stolen goods only to find his wallet and keys missing, you might have thought that the best plan was to flee or even attempt to hot wire the vehicle to make his getaway. White had his ID, so Jones had already entered ‘dumb criminal’ territory but what he did next makes this caper legendary.
Rather than getting the hell out of dodge, Jones elected to sprint into a nearby pond and broke into another house on the other side. While in his new burglary target, Jones logged into Facebook and forgot to log out when he left. The criminal mastermind also left behind puddles which were discovered by the homeowner when they returned. Apparently, police believe he committed both burglaries.
