See!!! The public schools couldn't even teach me how to hit the POST button only once! :-)
Conspiracy to commit an armed robbery would be a possibility, if such a statute exists in the state.
I would imagine he'll just plead down to some low level charges and get sentenced to rehab.
"One need not succeed in a crime to be punished for the crime. Take enough sufficient steps towards the commission of it, and you're in deep enough. Otherwise, thwarted efforts would go unpunished."
What is the crime? He was sleeping in his car, about to commit a crime, maybe? I think a first year law student should be able to get this guy off.
Unless, he was in the getaway car and we have only half of the story.
Your No-Doz or your life!
well---the cap gun was loaded, the note was really well done, and he was facing the store?
He was holding up the store for cosmetics?
What a rogue thing to do.
Sounds like he had a stolen car, so they can get him for that. But even conspiracy sounds fishy unless they can show he was planning it in cahoots with someone else.
....hey...you're suppost to take the quaaludes AFTER you rob the store....
He's hazing himself.
He was illegally in possession of a stolen car and a bunch of hypodermic syringes, add in the cap pistol, the disguise and the demand note all being discovered at or about the scheduled opening time of the store and the fact that most cash registers are electronically-controlled and likely empty at opening time and I think they could prosecute him on capital-stupidity charges.
That comma should be inside your quotes.
I missed the stolen car... the rest should not be crimes other than what you've pointed out, "of stupidity."
The point is he did not attempt -- he went so far and stopped. Stopped before an attempt. Slept on it. Sorry, there just ain't no crime here.
The freeper comments with this voice are hysterical.
It sure is. Here's one for you Bwahahahahahaha ZZZZZZZZZZZZZ neener neener neener. Cool extension.
Possession of a stolen car -- that's a possible crime. Did he know it was stolen? Hypodermic needles are legal, afaik. Diabetics and cenacer patients, etc, make use of them daily.
LOL! That was funny.
It is a very cool extension. I love that slow deep voice with all the funny comments.
>rouge
Did you mean rogue?
no I was just setting up post 49!
