Hidden Camera Reveals Big Surprise!
A man in Ohio complained to police that they were not doing
enough to catch the burglar or burglars that consistantly broke
into his house. He decided to install a hidden camera in his
house to catch the burglar(s)in the act. Finally, a few days
after setting up his camera, his house was once again
burglarized. Unfortunately, one of the items stolen was the
camera. Fortunately, an officer in a police patrol car happen to
see the burglar as he was making his get-away and the officer
was able to apprehend the burglar.
Well! That would be the end of the story if it were not for a
bizarre twist. When police played back the video tape in the
camera, to use as evidence against the burglar, they got an added
surprise. Now they caught two criminals instead of one. The video
tape revealed the burglar stealing what appeared to be large bags
of marijuana. In fact, the burglar knew where to look. The
marijuana was hidden behind a wall panel in the house of the
burglarized victim. The officer had no idea that marijuana was
involved when he arrested the burglar. It was later discovered that
the burglar hide the bags of marijuana before his capture. The bags
were subsequently discovered when police retured to the scene of
the crime to arrest the burglary victim for possession. When police
made the arrest, they were able to recover over eighty pounds of
marijuana and another ten pounds that the burglar had stashed in a
barn under an old tractor.
It turned out that the burglar had been a regular marijuana customer
of the burglary victim. The burglar testified in court against his
victim and indicated that he started burglarizing the house after he
accidently saw where the marijuana was hidden.
Both men are serving long prison terms.
