I'd just love to hear his Solicitor's version of events...

I remember seeing on some TV crime programme the output from a Video Camera someone nicked from the electrical shop (Visionhire in Lewisham, IIRC) that the theif didn't realised was hooked up to an external recorder.. He looked right into the lens..

Anyway, thieves aren't the only ones who are thick, Security System designers sometimes are as well.. http://www.theregister.co.uk/2004/06..._cctv_cameras/

Officers recognised his hair which was closely cut and red at the sides with a longer blonde streak across the top.
