Alleged bank robbers’ Google search: ‘What happens if you rob bank?’

Two of the suspects.

A bank robbery is like an IPO.

You have to prepare carefully. You have to make sure you don’t leave traces of evidence that someone afterward might point to and say: “Aha!”

I wonder, therefore, about the evidence that police say they collected after a bank robbery in Weymouth, Mass.

As CBS Boston reports, police say Sarah McLoud, Robert Owens, and Daniel Murphy are the guilty parties in the robbery.

They also say a perusal of McLoud’s computer offered traces of incriminating Google searches.

For among these wasn’t “What happens to our money if the government defaults?” but rather “If you’re going to rob a bank…” And, well, “What happens if you rob a bank?”

Oh, look, these allegedly weren’t the only two. The Boston Globe revealed that the searches also included “What happens if you rob a house?” and “What happens if you rob a drug dealer?”
