    Storyline

    Edit
    Video footage collected from police and security cameras demonstrating that most crimes are not perpetrated by evil geniuses. Highlights included crooks who use bags as masks but forget to cut holes for their eyes, burglars who have to call 911 after being trapped in the houses they were robbing, and thieves who try to make a fast getaway only to find they locked their keys in their cars. —Jean-Marc Rocher <rocher@fiberbit.net>

    Isn't it amazing how dumb some people can be!
    This program shows the lighter side of Law Enforcement. It is truly amazing how dumb some people can be. If you like to scratch your head at the lack of common sense some people can display, this is the show to watch.
