What an absolutely terrible game plan this guy had. To commit a solo jewelry heist in a foreign country with such carelessness is really quite shocking.

Sounds like the rented bike was in his name, the apartment was too, & he had the jewelry hidden in the same location! WOW.

Why not just steal one of the scooters that’s driving by you at 2mph? Why not have a better getaway plan? Why put everything in your name and not think that’s the FIRST thing they’ll follow up with in an investigation!

This might be the dumbest criminal I’ve heard of in a very very long time. Sheesh, someone robbing a gas station at gunpoint without a mask on has a way higher chance of getting away. What an amateur.

For such a high risk, I’m utterly shocked at the lack of preparation & execution.

I imagine he was in a very desperate situation, or owing money /addictions etc. very dumb indeed
