Question 1:

When law enforcement tries to ID robbers, they often use nicknames based on the criminal's apperance, modus operandi, of some other physical attribute. A robber who was hitting banks in the L.A. area was nicknamed "The Michael Jackson Bandit," why?

	He played Jacko's music on a boombox			He had a chimp with him

	He had a pack of loving children following him			He wore only one glove

Question 2:

Gabriel Anthony Camarena was suspected in at least 22 bank holdups, but it just took a conviction on one of those charges to put him away. Gabriel had the envious nickname of the "Uncle Fester" bandit, due to what fact?

	He smelled like the undead			He looks like Uncle Fester

	He was creepy

Question 3:

Poor John Anthony Lewis. Maybe it was the taunting, or perhaps the lack of money that drew him to a life of crime. Caught after robbing 16 New Mexico banks, his prominent nose led him to be called the "______ bandit"?

	The Pinocchio Bandit			The Jimmy Durante Bandit

	The Karl Malden Bandit

Question 4:

What name did police give to a three-man criminal team, who dressed like a biker, a cop, and a construction worker complete with hard-hat?

	The Three Stooges			The Village People

	The Marx Brothers
