Elaborate Bank Robbery Thwarted Because, Well, Bank Was Closed
Friday, July 8, 2011 at 11:39 am
Lunchtime reading from the Village Voice Empire: Witnesses claim three men in black approached the door of a Texas bank at 3:50 p.m. and attempted to walk in. That was where the plan started to unravel: The bank had closed for the day. Houston Press has the story.
It's closing time.

I'd love to be a fly on the wall in these nit wits' cells! Imagine trying to explain why they're there? Too fucking funny! LMFAO!!!!
Any competent defense attorney could get them off with little more than a slap on the wrist if not completey. The bank was closed, so there was no robbery. There may have been an attempted robbery, but they weren't charged with attempted robbery. Because they are not technically guilty of the first charge, they can't be guilt of the second or third. If they are not guilty of any of those 3, then why were they being arrested? The DA in that area needs to amend the charges to something he/she can make stick. This is why Casey Anthony will walk free before the end of July.
Kind of reminds me of the story a few years ago from Houston. They found the body of a Mexican man drowned in a drainage ditch with chains wrapped around him. At first they thought it was a homicide but then found that he had stolen more chain than he could swim with.
aggravated robbery---don't you have to actually rob something/someone to be charged with this?
Apparently he can't read and must be blind as well Because The lights were off I'm sure ..What a Dumb Ass
When I rob a bank, I have my full crew....1. Muscle Guy2. The Lookout3. The Safe Expert4. Getaway Driver5. The Time Keeper (who knows what time the bank opens, and what time it is now lol)
Security Measures like this should be put in place everywhere. Simply close the business down when people don't expect it. 24 hour convience stores? I think not. How about 12 hour convience stores, with them being open, EVERY OTHER half hour. Nightclubs and bars...could be open only around noon of course.
If we put these practices into place and perhaps start putting 13 month calenders and 23 hour clocks in our jails and prisons, we can stop crime.
That would stop it, alright. Completely randomize everything so nothing can ever be planned. Not even date rape!
