I’m not sure if there is a Bank Robber’s Handbook, but if so, 19-year-old Hannah Sabata of Stromsburg, Nebraska must have the old edition that doesn’t include the new chapter on not bragging about your crimes on the internet!

Casey Anthony’s computer used to Google “fool-proof suffication” on the last day Caylee was seen alive

In a shocking post-trial bombshell it has been revealed that prosecutors in the murder trial of Casey Anthony overlooked a Google search for the terms “fool-proof suffication” on her computer on the last day her daughter Caylee Anthony was seen alive.
