If the Collins Bros., as alleged, robbed and ran away from a craps game, good luck catching them on foot.

They are probably fortunate the cops caught them before their craps playing buddies did.

I just love the part, where besides the armed robbery, they are also charged with a marijuana possession. ROFLMAO.

It IS a crime in this state, not mandatory as in other more friendly and progressive utopias...

Would you allow that it may be a tad less socially dangerous than the armed robbery :wink: ?

I was merely commenting on the fact that it is a compounding factor when coupled with the gun crime. Allows for a longer sentence, hopefully.

Maybe they misplaced their medicinal cannabis prescription . . .

Dang, I forgot about that possibility!

One of the twins had become a rapper and even appeared in a rap video, I believe.

Must've been gangsta rap.

Also, if you plan to get away with a crime, do you commit it with your twin brother?

I would think there are more inconspicuous ways to commit armed robbery.

One of the twins was arrested again along with their younger brother who was on the UT football team...

Where does it say this Collins is any relation to the other two? He is from Brenham, not NOLA.

If it makes BillVol feel any better (and there's no reason why it should), Tennessee is not the only school making this kind of headline. See the Texas Tech story currently in the front page headline section.
