Now there are some dumb criminals out there – we even showed you a prime example of one last week – but the two we’re about to introduce to you called themselves dumbasses.
Travelling from Las Vegas to Montana with just 10 kg of marijuana in a dog kennel – yes, that’s right – Holland Sward, 23, and Leland Ayala-Doliente, 22, got so stoned that they called themselves in. They thought that the civilian vehicles driving past them were actually unmarked police vehicles waiting to pounce on them and they couldn’t hold out any longer.
This happened over a year ago, but after the court case the 911 call was released and has had viewers in stitches. The two had pulled over, parked at a gas station and made the call which began with this:
Leland: Hi, uh, we’re the two dumb asses that got caught trying to bring some stuff through your border and all your cops are just driving around us like a bunch of jack wagons and I’d just like for you guys to end it. If you could help me out with that, we would like to just get on with it.
Police say that on arrival the pair of dopeheads were up with their hands behind their heads. Sward was then said to address an officer with the words
We got caught and we’re surrendering.
The outcome of the hearing? Holland got five years, amended to 30 days in jail for being a good sport; but Leland learned the hard way. He had smoked weed, snorted cocaine and swallowed oxycodone just hours before sentencing day – discovered after test results came in – so he he got one-and-a-half to eight years in prison.
