This story is anything but straight forward.

This Worlds Dumbest Criminal was shopping with her husband and kids when she decided to steal the lighter and bag of beef jerky. The family had stopped at a convenience store in Sheboygan.

Police around at this Worlds Dumbest Criminals home around 7:00 PM. She was under the mistaken impression that you cannot be arrested, if you are naked. She began kicking, screaming, kicked one officer in the groin, and mooned passers by while in the squad car. This Worlds Dumbest Criminals is now facing multiple charges. What a mother to have!

Perhaps, you have seen the commercial where a father is texting that he is sitting on the patio. His son stands near making fun of him. Well, today’s Worlds Dumbest Criminal by posting to Facebook while robbing a house.

A woman in Martinsville, West Virginia came home to find that her home had been burglarized. She also realized, it would not take a police detective to catch the Worlds Dumbest Criminal who robbed her.

It did not take police very long to find this Worlds Dumbest Criminal. Views from a Broad reported, “Since he forgot to log out, it was pretty easy for cops to track down 19 year-old Jonathan G. Parker of Fort Loudoun, Pennsylvania, who happened to be staying nearby” (A GUY CHECKED FACEBOOK WHILE ROBBING A HOUSE AND LEFT HIS PAGE OPEN ON THE VICTIM’S COMPUTER, 2009).

Jonathan Parker’s decision to use Facebook, while robbing a home, and not even logging out has earned him the distinction of being one of the Worlds Dumbest Criminals. He also has received one count of felony robbery during daytime hours. If he is convicted, he could be facing up to 10 years in prison. I wonder if West Virginia prisons allow access to Facebook?
