HARRISBURG, Pa. – A retired police chief said he was robbed by "probably the dumbest criminal in Pennsylvania," at a police officers' convention on Friday morning. John Comparetto said as he came out of a stall in the men's room, a man pointed a gun in his face and demanded money. There were 300 narcotics officers from Pennsylvania and Ohio at the gathering.

Comparetto gave up his money and cell phone. But when the man fled, Comparetto and some colleagues chased him. They arrested a 19-year-old man as he was trying to leave in a taxi.

...

The suspect was arraigned and taken to Dauphin County Prison. When a reporter asked the suspect for comment as he was led out of court, he said, "I'm smooth."

We need a prisoner’s island for scum like this! Give him 5 pounds of smokin dope and a dull paring knife then send him to the prison island, where there are no guards just sharks in the waters. Let him duke it out with folks of his kind.....

There’s a shocker. Another one of the countless borderline retarded criminal predators who revolve in and out of our prisons, contributing nothing to society except mayhem and delinquent offspring.

So true, metmom.

I just LOVE these DUMB CRIMINAL stories.

They absolutely hilarious, but at the same time teach very valuable lessons.

“They absolutely hilarious, but at the same time teach very valuable lessons.”

Only if you're literate, humble, and are willing to work for a living. These petty criminals make our lives more miserable than a Madoff does because there are so many of them. They don't work because they are illiterate or drug-addicted, and they have no sense of shame.

One of Murtha’s supporters?

Awaiting charges or a suspect in four other robberies?
Either the Pa. courts are stupider than this guy, or this guy knows how to game the system.

Sorry that a couple hundred cops didn’t blow this bastard to hell. My son wouldn’t put up with that shit. Didn’t in Iraq; won’t at home.
