Missed Opportunity?

The problem with most crooks is that they have no imagination. A case in point is the perp in this story. All the parts were in place to commit the perfect crime. But he blew it.

According to the story. The bad guy broke into his ex-girlfriend’s place sometime during the night. Girlfriend, who is blind, was unaware of his presence. The next morning, she became aware of his presence and a confrontation ensued. He assaulted her. He fled the scene prior to the arrival of police. He was later arrested.

He should have spent his time more wisely. He could have used those hours where he remained undetected more productively. The chick is blind. He could have rearranged all of her furniture and likely achieved the same level of injury without the physical altercation.
