These geniuses committed all of the crimes in the same area. Won’t be tough collaborating witnesses and sending this scum up the river for a long stay.
If these misunderstood young men are caught I would advise them to use the “deBlassio” defense: stealing from the rich to feed the poor.

Rabbi Galicianer thanks for the English lesson, that was the result of a auto spell on my phone. Maybe you should find better ways to spend your time during retirement.
