    Bank robber outs self on Facebook

    http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/...n/7532468.html



    Two days before a west Houston bank heist, a 19-year-old bank teller named Estefany Martinez posted a cryptic status update on her Facebook page: "Get $$$."
    It would take a little over a week and a Crime Stoppers tip before investigators unraveled the plot twist behind the March 23 robbery of the International Bank of Commerce on Eldridge Parkway.
    What looked on surveillance video to be a classic bank robbery — with armed, masked suspects and terrorized bank tellers — turned out to be an amateurish inside job, allegedly orchestrated by two 19-year-old tellers with the help of a boyfriend and an older brother.
    Using an incriminating trail of Facebook posts left by Martinez and her 18-year-old boyfriend, Ricky "Ricko Gee" Gonzalez, detectives arrested four suspects this week on bank theft charges, alleging they made off with $62,000.
    Their Facebook pages held not-so-subtle clues: Two days after the robbery, Martinez posted: "IM RICH …" followed by a rhyming expletive.
    "WIPE MY TEETH WITH HUNDEREDS …" her boyfriend allegedly posted the day after the heist. He also boasted of wiping another part of his anatomy with $50 bills.

    That is so stupid. You'd think that if they were smart enough to pull it off, they'd be smart enough not to brag to the public about it.

    Morons, always the downfall of idiot criminals who actually pull it off. They can't keep it to themselves.

    I used to jail doc at the local county lockup. Had a Sgt. there when asked about the so-called "smart" criminal...

    "If they were real smart, they wouldn't be criminals"...

    It's kinda like the criminals who tell the tied up hero there plan before they kill them, but than the hero breaks out, escapes and saves the day.

    I read this on CNN, bunch of idiots, that's why if you ever plan a job like a bank heist, work with professionals or do something you can do by yourself.

    Wowee - that really takes the biscuit.

    I guess police must be checking out facebook pages of employees almost by default now.
