Steet Justice Payback
In an earlier article we learned about how some car owners are resorting to booby trapping their vehicles to prevent theft and exact a little revenge on the criminally minded. However, from that article we also learned that street justice can too easily backfire and legally make a victim out of a criminal.
Be that as it may, however, you have to give kudos to a creative engineer who did his own “Take a Bite Out of Crime” by creating not one…not two…not even just three glitter bombs models, but five! Of which, it turns out resulted in the capture of some criminals and may have made an impact on deterring would-be criminals and saving at least some of the law-abiding public from a growing crime problem.
