Ah, the romance of crime-what is more charming than a young man from Tennessee who, in a fit of artistic rebellion, decided that genuine currency was dreadfully passé and opted instead for counterfeit bills to acquire $160,000 worth of jewelry? Truly, one must admire the audacity-if not the intelligence-of such a venture. ✨
Meet Devin Johnson, a precocious 20-year-old who, along with his partner in alleged mischief, thought it wise to immortalize their six-figure escapade on social media. Because, naturally, the best way to commemorate a crime is to turn it into content-how very modern of them! 📸
While Mr. Johnson has graced the authorities with his presence, his accomplice-let us call them “The Elusive One”-remains conspicuously absent from court. One wonders if they considered renting a cloak of invisibility along with that now-infamous white Ford Bronco.
The duo, in what can only be described as a bold choice, shopped for luxury items in Boston’s Downtown Crossing-because nothing says “subtle criminal enterprise” like purchasing diamonds and Rolexes in broad daylight. Among their acquisitions: a diamond bracelet (a modest $15,000), a rose gold chain ($50,000-affordable, really), and two Rolexes ($45,000 and $23,000 respectively). One must commend their taste-if not their tactics.
The pièce de résistance? Their counterfeit bills bore the cheeky inscription: “In Prop We Trust.” A clever nod to Hollywood prop money! One almost wishes they’d gone all the way and added “P.S. This isn’t real.”-just to complete the aesthetic.
Alas, their downfall came not from meticulous planning but from their own social media bravado. In one particularly poetic post, a suspect triumphantly held a Rolex with the caption: “We made history bro.” Indeed-just not the kind one writes home about unless pleading for bail money.
As Suffolk District Attorney Kevin Hayden so eloquently put it:
“The facts here outline an incredibly audacious scheme to purchase real jewelry-and hugely expensive jewelry at that-with phony money, which eventually came undone through thorough, tenacious work by Boston police detectives.
These suspects, like so many others, may have thought they got away with something. Like so many others, they thought wrong.”
A lesson in humility, no doubt. Mr. Johnson is expected to make his next grand public appearance in court on September 23rd-tickets not yet on sale, but bound to be a riveting affair. ðŸŽ
