The FBI is mad. They don't like to look bad. And bad is exactly how the Brazen Bandit has made the FBI look. Despite his image on bank surveillance cameras in eight states, the FBI is no where near catching the Brazen Bandit. The bandit has robbed at least 10 banks in Georgia, Kentucky, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia and West Virginia.
In near desperation, the FBI has posted the suspects image on electronic billboards throughout the South. What really makes the FBI look bad is that the suspect has made no effort to disguise his identity. He doesn't use a mask or any gimmick. FBI agent Kevin Keithley describes the suspect's modus operanda as "uncommon." One has to ponder are stereotypes hindering the investigation? Do all Caucasian, close-cropped hair with goatee redneck bandits look alike?

The bandit makes no effort to cover his face. He even displays his tattoos on both forearms as he gestures to bank employees. The robberies began in May and the most recent was last week in Tennessee. While the bandit puts the gun in the faces of tellers, he has not shot anyone.
The bandits description is: white, about 25 years old, 5 feet 9 to 5 feet 11, 170 to 175 pounds. He has short, reddish-brown hair and a goatee. He is also rumored to drive a pickup truck while listening to country music.

Another "bad boy" for all you gals out there to fall for.

Cute lil sucker
Think below is a different dude:
Macomb County police are looking for a man who put a handgun to a customer’s head during a bank robbery Monday afternoon at a Flagstar Bank in Harrison Township.
Macomb County Sheriff Mark Hackel describes the man as armed and dangerous and says police are concerned about "what he may do in the future."
According to police, the man tried to leave with the woman as a hostage, but she resisted.
How much does he get in each of his heists? I heard it aint much and he has not been violent.
Most of the photos show him to be pretty calm, one photo shows a snarl. Must have been having a bad day.
They'll get him....one way or th'other.
How is he much different than President Obama forcing us to take a health plan we don't want at a cost of increase in taxes that we want even less?
Balls of steel or just plain stupid?
Well...they haven't been able to catch him thus far. I wonder how often they put his image in the local news or if octomom had priority since ratings override actual news in the eyes of the MSM...or should I have said $$M$S$M$$$$$
I think the loot was so small that until recently this has been a low priority.
