Thief brags about his crime on Facebook and gets arrested

If your moral compass isn't enough to keep you on the straight and narrow, I'd love to know what went through this guy's head when he thought 'yes, I will post my accomplishment on social media'. What a doosh!

Stealing is definitely nothing to brag about, especially on social media. But this Florida burglar thought it was a great idea to post a video of his distasteful behaviour on Facebook, landing himself in hot water with the police.

Raderius Glenn Collins (18) posted a Facebook video bragging about a $500,000 jewellery haul, MSN reported. This reportedly led to his arrest alongside his friend Marcus Terrell Parker (27), who was arrested for another burglary that took place in the area on 9 June.

The men allegedly stole the safe from a private home, and admitted to selling the stolen jewelry, the publication added.
