Barefoot Bandit Busted But Banking Big Bucks?

barefootbanditIf you haven’t been reading or keeping up with popular news, you probably haven’t heard of the now 19 year old Washington native who had been evading police over the past 3 years while pulling off robbery after robbery and escape after escape. Must be one really smart kid, he stole a $450,000 yacht, three airplanes, and committed hundreds of other burglaries in Canada, the Caribbean, and all over the US. Are you kidding me?

Finally the kid was caught in the Bahamas, after stealing another boat. Heck if I was making it in the Bahamas I’d just lay low a while and enjoy the location, but apparently his addiction to stealing was too much. Apparently though, it now looks that people want to either make him rich, or his family rich with book offers, and maybe even movie offers . . . the same family that includes a mother who said that she thinks it’s neat what he’s doing (see comment here).  I’m glad that in this time that many are struggling to make ends meet in a honest way, that these people may get some big bucks.  It’s sad, but I’m glad he’s caught and now all of his fan clubs can get on with their lives too! I guess I’m not helping the hype by writing about him either though . . .
