Bank Robbery: Florida Man Walks Into Unlocked Bank

A Florida man, Colton Vanhonhenstien, tried to pull off the world’s dumbest bank robbery. This past Saturday at around 7 PM, in Hobe Sound. The Wells Fargo bank alarm monitoring service hit up the Martin County Sheriff’s Office about a robbery in progress.

According to WPEC, So, Colton goes to a gas station, buys himself a mask, and heads straight across the street to the Wells Fargo bank. And guess what? The bank’s doors are just unlocked. Not locked, not even close. He just waltzes right in, thinking he's hit the freaking jackpot. He starts going through drawers and cabinets, probably hoping for bundles of cash, but finds nada. Zilch. Nothing. Empty-handed, he strolls out like it was just another Tuesday.

Meanwhile, the bank’s security team, seeing this masked dude on camera, finally decides to call MCSO about the bank robbery an hour later. So when the cops roll up, ready for action, the place is empty. Not a soul in sight. Not even our wannabe burglar Colton.

But here’s where it gets hilarious. The security footage from the gas station shows Colton buying that mask. I mean, crystal clear images of him paying five bucks for his criminal disguise. MCSO tracked him down and slapped him with a burglary charge. Even though the only loot he walked away with was a mask.

Now, here’s the million-dollar question… Why were the bank’s doors unlocked in the first place? And why did the alarm company wait a whole hour to report the so-called “in-progress” robbery? That's what I wanna know.

So, Colton, my man, if you’re gonna try your hand at bank robbery again, just don’t. You're not really cut out for that kinda thing. And Wells Fargo, maybe start locking those doors after hours.

I spent the weekend doing some viewing of some new series' about the mob and murder and here are 3 true crime docuseries to watch right now.

I've long been a fan of true crime. And not only true crime, but any shows about crime whether it be serial killers, heists, murders, etc. It's just fascinating to me. As the weather has gotten a little chillier here in Fort Myers, I hunkered down this weekend and caught up on some new series that have been released over the last month. Americans seem to have an obsession with true crime that has really taken off over the last few years. From binge-watching documentaries and reading books to listening to podcasts and dissecting cold cases. There are so many different ways to consume this genre. For me, and I feel like I'm not alone, I find the look into the minds of not only the criminals and those who work to bring them to justice so interesting.

I try to watch a little bit of everything when it comes to true crime. And from different parts of the country. There's also some really great international crime series you can stream. This weekend I was all over the board. A little bit of the mob, a little love gone wrong and an exorcism. All 3 are great and I definitely recommend if you enjoy true crime that you check them out!

Get Gotti was just released to Netflix on October 24. I've been really into mob shows and movies lately. Organized crime is a crazy world and this docuseries is by the same people who did Fear City. It dives into the FBI's investigation to bring down mob boss John Gotti and shows not only the FBI's side, but also some of the people who were on the inside.

The Devil on Trial came out October 17 on Netflix. This story is especially creepy because it deals with a murder done at the hands of someone possessed by the devil. In fact, this case is the only time that "demonic possession” has been used as a defense in murder trial in America. The sound effects gave me chills. I will say the reenactments are a little cheesy, BUT this is the story that inspired The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It.

Till Murder Do Us Part: Soering Vs. Haysom was released on Netflix November 1. This series dives into the Haysom murders that occured back in 1985. It gives a look into the love obsessed Jens Soring and Elizabeth Haysom, the murders of Elizabeth's parents and the twisted tales they told.
