A Keystone Heights man is accused of armed burglary and grand theft after Clay County investigators say he used his children to help him break into a house.
According to the arrest report, Elmer Williams, 36, had his 12-year-old daughter and 10-year-old son enter a house on Ridge Trail Road through a hole in the wall where an air conditioner had been.
Investigators said the children unlocked the back door of the home for Williams, who then took a stereo system, a camera and several collectable swords and knives and left.
Clay County authorities tracked Williams to his girlfriend's house, where he lived, and she gave permission to search the home. Detectives said they found at least one item stolen during the burglary.
The report says Williams' two children admitted to being with him during the burglary.
Williams was arrested at his workplace and booked into the Clay County Jail.http://www.news4jax.com/news/1003458...0425&qs=1;bp=t

You know, as I was reading this I was thinking that back in the '70's, when great films were still being made by Hollywood studios, this would have made a basis for great film...kind of Paper Moon-ish. Now, we're all going to shake our heads and bemoan the state of teh world. But I'm not sure we're being realistic. This sort of stuff has been going on forever.
Shit, not sure I'm making my point very well here. Anyone understand what I'm trying to say?
