A combination of things led to very bad luck for three muggers in SF recently. Whether they were due to a clever victim, pure luck or politics is hard to say, could be a combination.
Scott Weiner is a member of the San Francisco Board of Supervisors, the local legislative body of the City and County of San Francisco. Last month he was mugged by three people who wanted his cell phone. He did them a deal and told them he would give them $200 that he would withdraw from an ATM if they did NOT take his phone.
He held up his end of the bargain. Surprisingly, they did likewise. Weiner SAYS he deliberately maneuvered them so they would show up on the ATM camera.
Using the photos the cops (who probably seldom actually INVESTIGATE cell phone robberies if they don’t involve local politicians) recently managed to arrest Damien Wells, 19 and Lasonya Wells, 40. The third suspect is still at large.
Damien Wells was on felony probation at the time of the crime. He and the female are facing various charges including robbery, extortion, RSP, grand theft and really bad choice of victims. (OK, I made that last one up.)
