Criminally Dumb Criminal

Let's see if he falls for the old "come on in and we'll take a better mugshot" ruse.

Kevin Lawson of Tennesee was charged with the theft of guns, smokes, and food from a market earlier this week. The key evidence indicting him? The gloves he wore during the robbery thrown away in his neighbor's yard, and this incriminating selfie found on his phone after he willingly gave it to investigators. Clearly this man is going up in the ranks of the criminal underworld very soon.

The Ohio woman pictured here, Monica Hargrove, might just take the cake this week. According to the Columbus Dispatch:

The division's public-information team posted Hargrove's mug shot on Sept. 10 on its Facebook page with a description of the charge: On Aug. 30, police said, she gave a friend a ride to a pharmacy to pick up a prescription and then robbed the friend.

Hargrove called police and said she wanted her picture taken off the page.

The detective said sure, just come on down to headquarters. She did and was promptly locked up.

She since has been indicted on robbery, aggravated-robbery and kidnapping charges.
