It’s WHAT NOT TO DO WEDNESDAY! ? #WNTDW

Sometimes the stars align in our favor. Bad Guy smashed a $16.99 bottle of wine inside a local store. Loss Prevention told the cops the store would not press charges if Bad Guy would simply reimburse them for the booze. Bad Guy declined. Here’s what Bad Guy could have avoided had he simply pulled the cash from his pocket and gone about his day:

Not only did Bad Guy not pay for his destruction of property event, but he started yelling at the police and refused to identify himself. Not polite. While Bad Guy was being placed into the back seat of a patrol car he started to physically resist. Also not polite. Now that Bad Guy has gotten himself arrested, he is subject to a pat search. Guess what we found…

Bad Guy had three forged checks in his pocket, one of which he had unsuccessfully attempted to cash. Most of the time when people attempt to cash forged checks, they aim for a couple hundred bucks. Do you know what amounts were on the checks in Bad Guy’s pocket? $52,000, $18,000, and $3,500. That’s a whole lot of felony charges right there.

Hey – go big or go home.

Use your inside voice, play well with others, and remember we’re all in this together.
