If 41-year-old Brandy Jones was looking to beat the rap when she appeared in court on a charge of stealing a car, she should have perhaps rethought her mode of transportation.
Police in Dublin, Calif., say Jones arrived for her day in court in a different stolen car.
“DPS units located the 41 yo suspect at ECHOJ (East County Hall of Justice) in possession of a stolen vehicle,” read a tweet by Dublin Police. After her time in front of the judge, Jones was immediately re-arrested and returned to Santa Rita Jail, according to KRON.
The DPS also offered a valuable tip in the tweet: “When making a court appearance after being arrested for stealing a car, DON'T show up in another stolen car.”
