The Importance of Having the Proper Identification -- Take Two
This actually happened in Brandon, Mississippi, in 1996: One very
"bright" fellow stole blank checks then tried to cash one of them he
had forged.
First stupid mistake: Instead of writing the check for a smaller
amount, he wrote it for $300.00, which required him to show ID.
Second stupid mistake: When asked to show some ID, he showed his OWN
driver's license (which of course, had a different name on it than
the check he was presenting).
The prize was six months in the Rankin County Jail, all expenses
paid.
