#4: To Do List: 1. Rob Bank 2. Brag About it on Radio Show 3. Call Lawyer

Randy Washington of Dolton, Illinois, was jailed because he just couldn't keep from bragging on a radio show.

In September, 2004, Washington called a Chicago radio station and blantantly gave details about a robbery that had occurred at a South Chicago Heights TCF Bank.

The FBI was able to track Washinton down based on that call and he was sentenced to 40 months in prison.

We're pretty sure even if he gets out early, his brain will never be paroled.
