Thomas Peno is apparently not a man to sit idle when he can be working. Connecticut police say Peno found himself waiting during a break in a courtroom where he was supposed to address larceny charges . . . so he allegedly used the down time to break into cars around the courthouse.
The authorities at Rockville Superior Court were not impressed by his work ethic.
To make matters worse, Peno allegedly stole a GPS unit out of one car and then tried to sell it back to the actual owner.
There is no indication that police held any type of celebration: this was Peno’s 40th arrest.

Three strikes laws tend to lead to disproportionate, unfair sentences. However, I could definitely get behind 10 strike laws.
I heard about this on the radio last night. Appropriately enough, it wasn’t on the news. The segment is called “Dumbass of the Day”.
That man is an idiot. Arrested 40 times?
He’s such a waste of our tax dollars.
Should we say that he has competition and should either be running for the Mayor of Detroit or city counsel there or in Dallas?
Not to bright, must make the Judge happy or at least the Prosecutor. Trying to sell the GPS back to the original owner? Are extortion charges looking on the horizon?
