I've seen a lot of dumb crimes in my time... but this one takes the TP.An employee of the Lawrence, Massachusetts city hall was arrested and accused of stealing 20 rolls of toilet paper from his job.
When the cops got 53-year-old Roger Pinkham to the stationhouse, they realized the crime was still in progress: Pinkham allegedly "pulled six tightly folded toilet paper rolls from his buttocks and groin area"
Or maybe he was just trying to acquaint the TP with their eventual destination.
If that's not weird enough, he also gave the cops his brother's name when he was arrested... and was only found out when the brother read about the arrest in the local paper and saw his name connected to this dumb crime, according to AOL Weird News.
And that, kids, is how you get a spot in the Weird Crime Mug Shot Hall of Shame.

Is he stupid? Was he on drugs? Or is he desperate living in a high cost of living area and stupid? Unfortunately, the reporting while salacious leaves us guessing. Did he need the money or is he just nuts from to many drugs ( alcohol included)?
