There is no one more shocked by life s injustice than a criminal who finds himself the victim of crime. It s especially unfair, because he can hardly call the police.
You can t help but laugh at the indignation of petty crook Michael Perry, a London tealeaf at the tail end of the 1960s.
He attracted the attention of a couple of CID detectives, Robson and Harris, who paid him a little visit at his home. There, they noted some innocent items, jemmies and the like, which might be useful to a safecracker in his professional capacity.
Perry protested that he didn t do safes. Robson and Harris agreed he was a good lad, and offered to shake hands. When they came away, they had Perry s fingerprints all over a lump of gelignite.
