How not to impress a judge

Good day all. It’s time for another entry in the “Stupid Criminal of the Week!” awards. This time, the criminal mastermind didn’t manage to get himself killed in an interesting way. No, this one decided to show why he should be locked up and the key recycled into razor blades.

The criminal, one Jonathon Rivera, was facing charges of Grand Theft Auto. He apparently made bail on the original charge, but had to go to court to face the charges. Rivera didn’t try to skip out, and he did show up to answer the charges. That wasn’t the problem. What was the problem was his mode of transportation when he went to court. Here are the details from the Hartford Courant:

A Hartford man due in court to answer a charge of stealing a car apparently stole a car to get to court, police said.

Jonathan Rivera, 25, was at Superior Court in Hartford on Wednesday to answer a charge of first-degree larceny and tampering with a motor vehicle involving the theft of a car in Hartford on Feb. 17.

As he waited to appear before a judge, Hartford Parking Authority agents scanning license plates for parking violators got a hit on a white 2014 Subaru Legacy parked near the courthouse. The license plates had been reported stolen and the car itself had been stolen from Newington because a key fob was left in it, police said.

Police kept an eye on the car, and when Rivera left court, got in and tried to drive away, they moved in and arrested him.

He was charged with second-degree larceny and taking a motor vehicle without the owner’s permission.

What this idiot should have been charged with was grand theft Oxygen. Anyone this stupid shouldn’t be allowed to breath our precious atmosphere. As it is, I suspect he’s going to be a guest of the State of Connecticut for a few years. So congratulations to Jonathon Rivera for winning the prized “Stupid criminal of the Week!” award. It comes with an all expense paid vacation in the house of many doors.
