“It looked like I was watching a YouTube video of the world’s dumbest criminal.”

Police say that a man named Jack Hogan rammed his car through the entrance of Dimo’s Fine Jewelry in Gainesville, GA at 1 a.m. on March 14, then stole 50 earrings but was subsequently caught after he crashed during his attempted getaway, WSB-TV reports. Speaking with the news channel, store owner Robert Dimo says it didn’t appear that Hogan had any clue what he was doing and just “ran around the store knocking down cases, trying to get into the watches,” but only came away with the earrings. “To be honest, it looked like I was watching a YouTube video of the world’s dumbest criminal,” Dimo said. “I mean, it was just stupidity, just total stupidity.”

Wilkerson Testimonials

Gone Fishin’ (Thanks to Wilkerson)

Whether you want to go fishing — or enjoy some of the other good things life has to offer — you can take a cue from Jim Adair and choose Wilkerson to run your retirement sale. After 38 years in business, Adair decided it was time to enjoy some free time. His Missoula, Montana store, Adair Jewelers, will stay in business but without him at the helm. It was the perfect opportunity to call in the experts in retirement sales. Adair says he spoke to a lot of people who have done retirement sales to help him make his decision and he chose Wilkerson. “Wilkerson seemed to have the best set up, the best organization, the most current marketing of any of them,” he says. “If you want to run a successful sale, you have too much money on the line to be screwing around with trying to do it yourself.”
