Who are some of the dumbest criminals out there we were just begging to get caught?
Olsi Beheluli posted the money he made from dealing on Twitter!
And Lorraine Graves actually commented on her own Mot Wanted facebook post made by police!
Let’s get right to it!
4 - Model Citizen Olsi Beheluli
Olsi Beheluli used his above average looks to garner meager fame on TV, then dashed it
all with a photo showing him surrounded by some £240,000 in drug money.
The man claimed he had previously appeared on dating show My Little Princess, featured
on Channel 4.
With the show’s IMdb page barren and clips all but scrubbed from the web, that claim
is difficult to verify.
In any case, details about his life aside from that are fairly sparse.
For those who aren’t privy to the 2013 flash-in-the-pan phenomenon that was My Little Princess, it
was a dating show conducted in about the most over-the-top manner possible.
The ridiculousness included challenges like guessing the princess’ favorite conspiracy
theory and singing karaoke to her during your first meeting.
“Knights”, or contestants, who didn’t get into the princess’ good graces were
tossed into a moat by a giant in armor.
No, seriously.
Beheluli didn’t become a prince after the show; instead, he fell in with a drug-running
gang and then royally blew it, getting himself jailed in one of the dumbest ways possible.

He even took associates Besim Topalli and Azem Proshka with him.
Members of one of the many notorious gangs that have a stranglehold on England’s illegal
drug market to this day, the three were all part of the same operation, which made it
possible for Beheluli’s mistake to blow the whole thing apart.
Instagram
If you’re raking in lots of cash, you may be tempted to flaunt it.
For people like internet influencers and celebrities, whose continued raking in depends on showing
off the cash they’ve already got, this makes sense.
For a model and drug dealer?
Yeah, not so much.
Beheluli apparently didn’t get the memo; the dude posted a photo to Instagram, surrounded
by mountains of cash.
You don’t have to be Sherlock Holmes to guess what happened next.
The cops arrested Beheluli himself first.
He tried to cover for his gang, saying that the photo in question was taken in Albania
with a relative’s money.
London’s finest didn’t buy it; they raided the gang’s stash house, and arrested two
other members.
Police ultimately broke up the whole operation, which amounted to some £4 million between
cocaine and heroin.
Signaling
Beheluli is just one of many criminals flexing their wealth online where their actions have
backfired.
Even so, the judge didn’t go easy on the group of thugs.
The former dating show star caught an 11 year sentence, out of a total of 31 years between
him and his two goons.
Topalli and Proshka, once they’ve served their ten year sentences, will be headed back
to Albania.
Wealth signaling has been a prominent gang activity around the world, but in the UK,
it’s picked up a special significance in the past few years.
Notable Albanian gangs, such as the Hellbanianz, have been going as far as producing music
videos.
The goal seems to be attracting more young men from their homeland to join in and tighten
the gangs’ stranglehold on UK criminal enterprises.
That practice may be a bit more restrained in the future, since these arrests have made
it clear that authorities are watching out.
Beheluli’s personal Twitter account has been active recently, and seems to indicate
that all is well with his life as a model.
Given the implied, but unproven, gang ties, there’s no way to know at this point if
he’s going to reoffend.
Albanian gang culture seems to run on loyalty and vengeance, but on the surface, at least,
it appears that the star of this story has reformed.
3 - Brotherly Dumb Two Brothers
David Guerra, 17, and Ezra Guerra, 21, recently caught charges in Texas thanks to Instagram
posts by David showing off the pair’s guns and cash.
Life can be tough for young brothers living together without a parent, but these two didn’t
make things easier for themselves by falling into the wrong career track.
The pair had been living together in the southside of San Antonio in the leadup to the arrests.
Alerted
Alerted to the social media postings, the Bexar County Sheriff’s Office moved on David
first.
They found him in traffic, and during the stop, they discovered a loaded gun, hash oil,
and cash in the car.
David was detained on the spot, along with his older brother, who was riding shotgun.
A search of the pair’s home yielded more weapons, marijuana, cocaine, and $15,000 in
cash.
The pair were booked immediately.
Legalization
Texas law, strictly speaking, still criminalizes marijuana in all its forms.
The only statewide exception is non-smokable hemp, with a few caveats.
Even so, many products with an extremely low or negligible concentration of THC are allowed.
Additionally, many police departments and even entire cities and counties are simply
refusing to prosecute for small amounts that could conceivably be for personal use.
That didn’t do the brothers much good; along with weapons and traffic charges, both brothers
got controlled substance charges for the cocaine.
The marijuana, meanwhile, was found to be in excess of the 4 ounce legal limit for a
misdemeanor charge in Texas.
This makes it an automatic felony, and made the cops throw the book at the duo that much
harder.
As of this writing, the case seems to be ongoing.
We’ll have to wait and see what the criminal justice system does with these two wannabe
hard cases.
2 - Comment Section Lorraine Graves
Lorraine Graves must have felt like a real celebrity when she commented on a public entity’s
Facebook post that was talking about her back in July of 2021.
The hangup?
The post named her as an accessory to murder, and the comment got her arrested.
The shooting happened in March, and the original post from the Tulsa, Oklahoma police went
up on a Wednesday.
The very next day, Graves was arrested.
The details of the crime aren’t easily available as of this writing, but sources say that the
unfortunate person, Eric Graves, was shot and his body found inside an apartment.
Whether it was his own wasn’t laid out.
Another victim was also injured.
The two perpetrators, Jayden and Gabriel Hopson, were actually brought in first, leaving police
on the hunt for Graves.
She wound up on the very top of the city’s Most Wanted list.
That’s not the kind of fame you want to embrace, but Graves’ comment asking about
reward money lightened the mood considerably, in light of how serious the crime was.
Knock Knock
Police couldn’t help but rag on Graves after she outed herself.
In a more open-and-shut case, there would definitely be room for such gloating.
This one?
Well, things got a bit more complicated.
Not long after Lorraine Graves shot off her mouth then mugged for the camera in handcuffs,
there was a major break in the case that completely revamped authorities’ suspect list.
A man previously thought of only as a witness, Wendell Alexander, now faces first degree
murder charges alongside Jayden Hopson.
Evidence indicates two shooters, and new details have brought to light that Jayden and Wendell
were the likely trigger pullers.
Aftermath
Lorraine’s original charges of accessory to murder weren’t modified all that much.
After her cousin was gone, she was thought to have helped hide the guns used in the crime
and protect the criminals.
Gabriel Hopson, meanwhile, is alleged to have helped hide evidence, including the corpse,
and taken items of value from the victim after death.
This complicated case is still in the air as of the latest update from local sources,
which dropped in September of 2021.
1 - 24 Hour Help Frances Noble
Frances Noble, of Hertfordshire, England, was in need of 24-hour care.
Due to a neurological condition, she was no longer able to feed herself, take care of
household obligations, head out in public, or do any of the numerous other things that
most of us take for granted.
The poor woman was bedridden, and needed carers on staff around the clock to ensure that her
needs were met.
Her condition put her into a bedridden state as far back as 2005, and she petitioned her
local government for help in getting the care she needed.
A common practice, seen in the UK and abroad, is to give the sick person a fixed stipend
to pay out to carers of their choice.
Hertfordshire County Council was glad to take care of one of their own, and over the course
of more than 11 years, they paid out over £702,000 .
Conned
Here’s the thing though.
It was all one big lie.
The whole thing fell apart when authorities opened up an investigation in 2018.
Noble admitted as much, and said that starting in 2007, she was receiving money that she
didn’t actually need.
She also admitted that herself, her daughter, and her son-in-law were living high on the
hog with that money.
The £702,000 and some change paid out since 2005 wasn’t the amount that charges for
the trio ended up being based on.
Instead, the amount paid since 2007 was the basis for the charges, coming up close to
£625,000.
The scam was a fairly elaborate one.
The scam in its original form was fairly simple; Noble got money from the Council to hire carers,
and she didn’t spend all of it on the intended care.
She kept some of the cash for herself, and ‘hired’ her own daughter, Laura Borrell,
who was paid a decent amount.
Borrell’s husband, Phillip, was also in on the whole thing.
Using their part of the ill-gotten gains, the younger couple took off on a number of
vacations.
They went to places like San Francisco, Canada, and Boston.
The pair even benefitted from a GoFundMe, set up in 2017 by Noble to help them with
a big vacation.
The story behind that one only makes things juicier.
In 2017, the Borrells went on ITV’s This Morning.
Laura, then 39, claimed that she was one of the youngest frontotemporal dementia patients
on record.
The pair regaled audiences with the struggles caused by the disorder, including Laura having
to stop pursuing a career in law.
Noble’s GoFundMe page reportedly raised around £1,500 toward a grand trip to help
Laura make memories before her memory was affected by the disease.
With the details of the case being as they are, the Borrells’ claim to a neurological
condition may seem dubious.
According to Laura's attorney, the claim was legitimate.
Dog Walking
The first real signs of trouble came in 2015, when neighbors began to notice Noble being
a lot more active than she logically should have been, given her condition.
Notably, she was reportedly seen out walking her dog, meaning she had to keep up with the
animal.
In one encounter, she was said to have spotted a neighbor spying on her walking the grounds
around her home, then pulled her hood on and claimed to be a carer, not Noble herself.
Another neighbor said that Noble was seen taking a home delivery of groceries.
The reports coming in from neighbors included video evidence.
Authorities simply couldn’t ignore the situation any longer, and launched their own investigation.
They began observing Noble’s residence, and what they found sealed the deal.
Not only was Noble up and about when she was claiming to be bedridden, but there were no
indications of any visits by care staff.
Germany
Naturally, authorities pounced.
Police nabbed the Borrells in short order, but Noble gave them the slip.
When the heat was officially on, Noble decided to lay low in Berlin.
Specifically, she settled in Rohrwallallee, a somewhat affluent suburb not far from Berlin
limits, in 2019.
Even so, St. Albans Crown Court managed to have proper hearings about the matter; one
hearing happened with Noble present to admit to fraud by false representation, and another
happened without her.
Aftermath
In the end, all three fraudsters were sentenced.
The three admitted to a limited number of counts that don’t quite add up to the grand
sum involved in the whole scheme.
What they did decide to admit to in court was enough to earn them all some serious jail
time.
The Borrells came together to admit to a joint charge of receiving criminal property, about
£184,000 in all.
The two got their own individual charges, as well.
Laura confessed to receiving criminal property in the amount of £39,700.
Phillip pulled down a significantly lower amount, admitting to only £6,218.
Noble, meanwhile, admitted to one count of fraud and one count of transferring criminal
property for £130,649.
Noble, being the ringleader in the whole affair, was sentenced to four years and nine months
in jail.
As of this writing, she’s awaiting extradition from Germany to serve her sentence in England.
Laura Borrell, the daughter, got three years and nine months.
Phillip Borrell, the son-in-law, was sentenced to four years and three months.
