There are good places to commit a theft, there are bad places to commit a theft, and then there’s the place Michigan student Willima K. Bradley decided to commit a theft. Bradley was sentenced to 180 days in Kalamazoo County Jail on Monday, for stealing a computer from Kalamzoo County Jail, where he was already serving his sentence from a different case.
Handing down the sentence, Judge Gary C. Giguere Jr. told Bradley: ‘This is the dumbest crime I’ve heard today. It may be in the top half-dozen in my career.’
‘You need to get a handle on this theft thing,’ he added. ‘Your life of crime is not working out.’
Bradley was forced to agree. ‘I’m not the best criminal,’ he admitted.
Bradley, a student at Western Michigan University who has a string of previous felonies and misdemeanours, committed his incompetent crime on January 31, when he took a computer that had just been delivered to the jail, put it in a rubbish bag and hid it behind some bins to pick up later.
In a criminal masterstroke, he did this in full view of security cameras.
Sentencing Bradley, Judge Giguere pondered: ‘Where do I put you? Back in the jail where the crime occurred?’
Bradley, who says he has been having counselling to help him with his fondness for stealing things, suggested house arrest instead. But the judge was unmoved, and sent him back to jail.
Um…..wow. 
This criminal totally underwhelms me.
