Caper – noun. A hairbrained escapade…
I can not help help but conclude that two men nabbed at a Northwest Houston Whataburger were none-too-sober when they were arrested with “cookies and cash.” The two men stand accused of robbing a subway and dollar general store. Apparently the cookies did not do the trick, the two were caught mid chow down at the burger joint that was only a few miles from the reported the robberies.
I must admit, it never ceases to amaze how comical some of the situations people get themselves into. And while in criminal defense i am often inundated with serious ad sobering situations, now and again – but with aome consistency, a funny situation comes across my desk or pops up in the news.
Make no mistake – robbery is a serious crime. But when you steal cash and cookies from a subway and then stop at a whataburer on your way out of town…
