...Why on earth would he buy the car he committed the robbery in? He could've literally walked down the street to another dealer.
IssacCox
Why not buy a different car??

You at least have to give Mr. Warren some credit for 'outside the box' thinking...
booboolouie
Well I guess thats one way of going about getting what you want.

I just wish that'd happen to Ken Jeong everytime I see him in, well, anything.

I’ve robbed 47 banks. This is just plain stupid. What a rookie.
Jarreson
His mugshot says it all
HarbourMistress
This is why most would be thieves just scam regular people. The police are barely interested and the jail sentences are much lighter.

And that ladies and gents is called arbitrage.

Seems suspicious. Banks only carry like 3k in the register. It takes really precise timing to hit an armored car and/or planning for a vault
prettydumb
i hate interest too lol

The scenes with her and Rob Riggle are amazing.

I ain’t been home in over a year. And I’m 90% sure I left my front door open.

Maybe he was going to sell the car to pay back the bank - they shouldn't have stopped him
gurlsnuggler
I see they chose to use the photo on this article.. wonder why...
Suichimo
How little money did he steal that he could only afford to drop $3000 as a down payment? Was he going to make his monthly payments?

That is the official face of "well that sure worked better in my head."

Bruh that is the longest couple I ever seen in my life. When they have kids their family portrait gonna look like a white ass bar code

20 years for robbing a bank. Yet banks robbing millions of people and the government just gives them more money.

In capitalist America, people don’t rob bank, bank rob the people...
AllTheGoodOnesWereGone
Bank robberies are the stupidest crime to do, because they're exclusively the domain of the FBI and thus federal crimes with no parole.
SherMattLockSmith
20 years, statutory federal maximum for the crime with a guilty plea, that to me screams previous convictions. A guilty plea normally (1)
SherMattLockSmith
(2) Earns some leniency with sentencing, if it doesn't that shows there are extraneous circumstances not stated.
delaney731
They give them money to replace the stolen cash also

In capitalist america, bank robs you!

It's called a "balance" and it means one side gets all the power because it's a "lie"

And subsidizes them and rescues them and... Yeah, what a fucking cartel.
TheDogEnd
Taking money from the rich is criminal. Taking money from the poor is capitalism.
somethingslightlyclever
That's the unfortunate truth.
iLikeUrSocks
It could be the way he robbed it. Deadly weapons and so forth
somethingslightlyclever
I'm certain he did... If it was just a note it would still be like 10 years. Still he brandished a weapon. 20 years is insane.
charlefine
There was a robbery of an armored gold transporter (~2 million $) in Germany and the people only got 8 years (out in 4-5). Gold never found.
somethingslightlyclever
That's because europe doesn't have a draconian judicial system?
IamNotAshamed
20 years is also 5 years more than a life sentence in Germany
Rhythmaster
(1) You know actual people work at banks right? People with families. Robbers threatening bank tellers.... arent the good guys. Do you think
Rhythmaster
(2) the robber is gonna redistribute all the money he stole to the less fortunate, like Robin hood? We can take issue with banks predatory
Rhythmaster
(3) behaviors, but also agree that pointing a gun at some poor bank teller isnt gonna improve the system... or is that too nuanced for you??
somethingslightlyclever
You realize that bank robbers are thieves, not murderers. They almost never hurt anyone unless they are put in a corner via "silent alarms"
Archeron
I don't understand this argument. How are banks robbing people?

givemefakeinternetpointsplease
It's a terrible argument... "bEcaUse cAPItalism bAD!"
AnimusRex
Or because inelastic demand and the need to answer to shareholders rather than customers means most banks don't work for consumers.
starfound
Your logic is about a shallow as a puddle in a parking lot. Strawmen make poor friends, but I'm betting they're all you've got lol.
Boil1337
Every which way they can...
Archeron
That's not an argument.
Archeron
I'm not being facetious, I actually don't understand what the argument is.
GingerLaird
Never understood that. If a bank fails, the money isn't all gone. The bank's assets are liquidated and redistributed according to each >>
reallynotalex
BUT THAT MEANS THE TOP PEOPLE HAVE TO ACTUALLY DO WORK! Lol
Hurro
Banks are allowed to loan out a multiple of their assets (customer deposits). 6 times or 10 times what they have on the books. Dunno the #
GingerLaird
That right there should be illegal.
GingerLaird
>> customer's original account value. Or at least that's how I'd make sure it works. The bank could start over, but heavily watched by >>
GingerLaird
>> the government until the bank can begin to turn a profit and give customers their interest regularly.
Targe0
They are all insured, basically ever since the great depression there are a number of safety nets now in place. So as to not repeat it.
eetsumkaus
it's not the bank's assets, it's their irresponsible loans that brought down the economy. Also lol @ "heavily watched"
GingerLaird
Banks do have assets. It's mostly in the form of properties though. Their loans are borrowed from the accounts of customers, which is >>
