Dumb criminal stories

[DGuller]

I think she was correct, at the time at least.

Old lady gets tazed and arrested for evading arrest and assaulting a cop because she didn't want to sign a ticket. Best line:

"You're under arrest"
"No I'm not"

That's a whole new level of stupidity.

It's a very common line in cop cams.

In 2000, a guy in Austria was sentenced to 15 months in jail for property related crimes.

After 7 or 8 months he was permitted to go on day parole (limited time outside but having to return to prison).

He went on the run.

Now, 23 years later, he went to a police station in Salzburg to turn himself in. He said he spent the time working in restaurants in Brandenburg, but his conscience is bothering him too much now. He's 47. The reports say he has to complete his original sentence, though I assume he may look at a bit longer than originally planned.
