A trail of DNA evidence on the packages or the devices helped investigators narrow a nationwide manhunt to Cesar Sayoc, a 56-year-old man from Aventura, law enforcement sources told the Miami Herald. Sayoc was being questioned by FBI agents with the Joint Terrorism Task Force following his arrest.

    I don’t want to imply I’m ever wishing for bad guys to be more competent, but this dunce is a grade of pitiful rarely seen in this day and age. You could tell me he paid for shipping labels with his credit card and I’d believe you.

  4. The bank robbery seemed to go well.

    The culprit walked into a Chesapeake Wells Fargo in January, passed a note to a teller and walked out with $2,701, according to court documents.

    If only he hadn’t written the note on one of his starter checks.
