Dumb Criminals: Man Butt Dials 911 As He's Vocally Plotting A Murder
Tip: If you’re plotting to kill somebody, try not to “pocket dial” 911 and have your plans recorded.
That’s exactly what Scott Simon did after getting into a fight with another man at a Waffle House in the early hours of May 5, the Broward Sheriff’s Office said Wednesday.
On a recorded line, Simon can be heard telling someone else that he’s going to follow the victim home and kill him. Minutes later, 33-year-old Nicholas Walker was shot and killed while driving his car onto Interstate 95 in Oakland Park.
