White/Black Robber

White man used black mask in robberies



US prosecutors say a white man who pleaded guilty to six south-west Ohio robberies used a black mask so lifelike that police initially arrested a black man for one of the crimes.



The Cincinnati Enquirer reported that prosecutors said the black man's mother even thought a photo of the suspect she saw on television was her son.



Court officials said Conrad Zdzierak, 30, of the Cincinnati area, pleaded guilty to one count of aggravated robbery and five counts of robbery.



The prosecutor dismissed 12 other charges in a plea deal and declined to seek indictments in other crimes where Zdzierak was suspected.



Authorities said Zdzierak stole about $US15,000 in the robberies this year of four banks, a credit union and a pharmacy. Witnesses reported the robber was black.

How stupid can you get to see a somebody in a black mask talk without moving their lips and report a black man.

True, but he may of gave the teller a note or something. I must admit, the disguise is great, because as it stated, it had a black male arrested, even though he was innocent. Original robbery disguise, but still ended up getting busted in the end.

So you couldn't tell that black people are not actually colored black? They just range from light brown to dark brown. The darkest person I've seen doesn't even look like the color black.



Now these idiots arrest someone who looks like him because of his skin color. I don't blame the police, honestly. They have to react quickly and can't look for more than a second at someone before taking action. It's that white guy that is ticking me off.



Good ridence to him
