Glad to see they put some thought/planning into it! So often, we see idiots getting caught for piss-poor planning when committing crimes. Although, 2 have already been captured...teh other 2 prob not far behind.

now...watch they go to the jeweler across town and try to exchange for cash...or let one of their b###hes wear a six fig piece around town?  how can they get that stuff out the country, to a country that habors criminals?  I read the Swiss banks are trying to go legit...just makes it harder for crocks these days.

I'm sure they have a fence lined up....they did'nt knock off teh 7-11...these are professionals....the fence will buy it off them for $20 million and sell it for $40 million. It would really be interesting to know their entire exit strategy..with two of them in custody. Perhaps these two don't have any idea, maybe they were conned by the other two?

When I was 10 yrs old, I stole candy out of teh vending machine and sold it to friends....true story.

Apparently they paid a makeup artist to use latex to change their appearence. They told him it was for a music video. He is now being protected by the police because he obviously knows what they really look like. Sure beats the old stocking mask over the face like they did in the 70's.
