OCALA, FL - Mario Condis, 60, volunteered as an usher at Blessed Trinity Catholic Church. But during that time, church officials noticed the donations were much lower than usual and contacted police. The police set up surveillance cameras and viewed Mario helping himself to the collection baskets. When the priest asked the congregation to bow their heads and close their eyes for prayer, Mario stuffed his pockets with cash. But Mario didn't know the police were watching. As he went to the altar, deputies met him and escorted him out of the church and into a squad car. Police emptied his pockets of nearly $350... not bad for an hour's worth of "ushering"!

This time she was not released.

DETROIT, MI - John Rose, 25, applied for an officer position in September. After a background check, he was clear to proceed.

Rose was a wanted criminal on six felony counts in Kentucky. The officer asked Rose to come into the office on November 10 to finish some final paperwork. Rose took the bait, came in, and was immediately arrested. The Wayne County Sheriff said this incident should serve as a reminder for any criminals applying for a job with the Sheriff's office.

Iowa City, IA - Ross McDonald, 39, was pulled over for going the wrong way on a one-way street. He told the officer that he had only had a "couple" of drinks. Ross was taken to a sobriety processing room where he was given a breathalyzer test. But before the test, he asked to use the restroom. Ross started to eat as much toilet paper as he could, thinking that would help him to pass. It didn't! Now he found himself arrested, full of alcohol - and plenty of fiber!

CLERMONT, FL - Liann Watson, 45, knew she was too drunk to drive, but she wanted some cigarettes and chicken.

She told them that she was going to pass out if someone didn't help her. Deputies did show up, but arrested her on the spot. She was charged with misusing the 911 system. Once in the back of the squad car, Watson kicked and screamed before she finally just cried.
