Even if they could get away with the bike there is no resale market. No one would want to be sitting at a light on a bike with an club serial number stamped on the cases without holding the patches.
Smuggling raw plutonium in your rectum would be a smarter way to make a living.
@Smokin Joe BTW,the funniest crime case I ever heard involved a black guy in NYC that mugged a old woman walking down the street. Caused her some physical pain,but at this late date I don't remember how much.
What I DO remember is that when he showed up at the arraignment to hear his charges,he was without question the most apologetic criminal you ever heard of. It turned out that the old Italian lady he knocked to the sidewalk and whose purse he stole was named Gambino. Guess who her son was. Yup,some dood named Carlo Gambino.
Talk about a case of "I am truly sorry,and if you will just gimme 3 steps you won't hear from me no mo!" The newspaper report I read even said the judge and the lawyers were snickering.
I am going to go out on a limb here,and guess that this man is no longer with us. Getting sentenced to prison would just result in making it easier to find him,and you KNOW there were people waiting outside on the street that wanted to talk with him if he was released.
I laughed so hard I cried. I can just picture that goober standing in court and having no problems at all convincing everyone in there about just how sorry he was,and that he would never do anything like that again,and both him and everybody else knowing that nothing he said or nothing the court did made a damn bit of difference . He was a dead man walking.
