We'll see if they have the kind of success at other crimes that they

Hmm, it's more like seeing somebody planning a robbery, and getting all the weapons and gear ready, but not knowing their target. It's hard to do anything about it at that point with a robbery, too.

Thanks for the link, though!  That's what I was looking for.
