Mystery Question~Quotes from Dumb Criminals is the funniest and craziest post I believe I’d done yet. I could not believe what I’d found. But you’ll see a little later. Right now I want to talk about the photo. I love catching the sun as it peeks over the houses across the street. As usual, I got out early to pick up newspapers (I’m the neighborhood delivery boy. lol), and this greeted me. Well worth getting up early for!
Now for last week’s Mystery Question~Dumb Crimes, I have four scenarios. Three are true, one is not. Can you guess the one that is not true?
- When two men ended up in the hospital they told a wild tale of being on a secret mission and getting shot. However, they were saved by their bullet-proof vests. When one of the men’s wife arrived, she told a different story. Turns out the two were drinking and got to wondering if a bullet-proof vest really worked. So they shot at each other. The police charged them with felony aggravated assault.
- A man, high on bath salts, broke into a home and started putting up Christmas decorations. When he finished, he lit candles and started playing with the homeowner’s electronic toys until the homeowner’s eleven-year-old son found him. He called his mom who in turn called the police.
- In an undercover sting operation, police knew the identity but not the location of a woman who had stolen a car from a dealership. They were monitoring her FB page and noticed she had accepted several FB challenges. They posted a ten-day Facebook photography challenge on her page with the winner getting a $1000 spa deal. The challenge–post a photo once a day of your location for ten days. She bit and by day eight, the police had zeroed in on where she was and arrested her.
- A man walked into a police station and demanded the officer give him all his money. Too late, he realized he was in a police station and tried to backtrack, saying he was trying to check up on a warrant. Unfortunately for him, the policeman he tried to rob didn’t believe him, and then he informed the officer he had a gun. The officer quickly disarmed him and put him in a cell.
And the answer is…#3. Congrats to everyone who guessed correctly. Now onto this week’s Mystery Question.
Mystery Question~Quotes From Dumb Criminals: I have four sentences that dumb criminals have said. Three are true, one is not. Can you guess the one that is not true?
- “I look better than this mug shot. Take another one.”
- “Come on, man. I spent my last twenty bucks on that rock. At least let me smoke it before you take me to jail.”
- “I didn’t rob that guy. The one I robbed had blonde hair.”
- “He was already dead when I shot him. I think he had a heart attack or something when he saw my gun.”
Okay, Mystery Sleuths, tell me which one I made up. Leave your answer in the comments and I’ll enter you in a drawing for a book from my library!

I’ll guess #4.
Beautiful picture!

Thanks, Paula. We’ll see next week if it’s #4. Thanks for stopping by!
Great photo once again. I like your Scripture pick, too.
These are all so crazy. Is there anyone dumber than a dumb criminal? I’m going with #3 again this week as the one you made up, though I can picture someone using that line.

I loved these, Tim. Actually picked them up from a retired cop. 🙂 Thanks for stopping by. And I love that scripture, too, and thought it went with the photo.
Beautiful picture! These quotes are funny, but I can picture criminals saying all of them. I’ll say #1 is false.
Author
Megan, it’s so hard to beat the true ones, that it takes me longer to think one up than to find three online. lol Thanks for stopping by.
I look forward to these each week. I’ll go w/ #1 this time–I want the others to be true.
Author
We’ll see, Delores. These were fun to do. Thanks for always stopping by!
I will have to pick #1. Love the picture
Author
Thank you, Janet, and welcome to my blog! We’ll see next week if it’s #1.
Beautiful photo. I guess I’ll go with #1.
Author
We’ll see, Diana! So glad you stopped by this week.
Hello Patricia, I love that verse and the picture, especially together, it’s so fitting.
I am going with #4 this time, it seems like something I might have seen in a movie or read in a book.
I really love your books, they always keep me involved with the characters all the way to the end.
Author
Hi Pearl! I thought the verse fit the photo very well. 🙂 Thank you for loving my books! And we’ll see if it’s #4 next week.
I am guessing #3 this week.
Author
Hi Gloria! We’ll see…thanks so much for stopping by and commenting!
They’re all hilarious, but I’m torn between #1 and #4!
Author
Good, Regina! So glad I made you laugh today. We’ll see next week if it’s either.
Hilarious. I’ll go with #3. The picture is lovely.

I’m glad I made you laugh, Kay! These were fun.
Great picture, but I hate when I have to drive directly into a fireball like that. It’s happening a lot this time of year if I leave my house to head to the store late in the day. When I was working, I often had to deal with it on the way to work at various times of the year. It makes for beautiful pictures, but can be hazardous to your health.
I think #1 is made up, although I would suggest that all suspected criminals should request another picture. They usually have this horrible or evil scowl on their face and then want to claim they’re innocent. What’s up with that?

I know, Edward! Once I was driving to Arkansas on I-40 in late September or early October and as I neared the turnoff for Bryant, the sun was right in my eyes. I missed the turnoff and had to backtrack. lol We’ll see if #1 is the correct answer next week!
I love Ps 113:3! I’m going to guess #4
Author
Me, too, MS Barb! We’ll see next week if it’s #4. Thanks for stopping by.
No idea what to choose this week because they could all be said by criminals! I’ll go with #4 with an almsot 100% chance of being wrong, lol!
Author
