Bag Man Badman
Disguised Disaster
Christopher Badman, a burglar from Bridgend, Wales, used a carrier bag as a mask while robbing a hotel during an Elvis Presley convention. Unfortunately for him, he removed the bag while still on CCTV, revealing his face to the camera. Badman’s failed disguise made it easy for police to track him down. He admitted to the burglary and was ordered to pay £900 in costs.
Unmasked by Mistake
Badman’s attempt at hiding his identity with a carrier bag was as ineffective as it was amusing. His decision to remove the bag on camera highlights the lack of foresight that often accompanies such bungled crimes. The ease with which he was identified and apprehended underscores the futility of his disguise and adds a humorous twist to his criminal endeavor.
