Crime Tip #1- NEVER Return To The Scene Of The Crime- Even To Cash In Your Stolen Lottery Ticket

From our favorite stupid criminal state- Florida, comes the tail of Herbert McClellan.

27-year-old Herbert went to a Speedway gas station in Clearwater around 2 am last Tuesday. That was when he helped himself to about $102 worth of lottery tickets. The clerk was distracted, and apparently he decided “what the heck!”

Well, a couple of hours later, and a bit of scratching, Herbert thought crime really does pay because one of his tickets was worth $30, and he decided to cash it in.

Since he hadn’t worn any kind of mask or disguise when he stole the tickets, it was pretty easy for the clerks to recognize him and call the police

Herbert for petit theft and dealing in stolen property
