Many, many years ago, I was assigned to patrol division and had been dispatched to the Sears store where a 13-14 year old male had been detained for shoplifting. I did the investigation and arrested the young man for shoplifting. I called the Juvenile Probation office and was instructed to cite him and a parent into Juvenile Court. I called his mother who came to the store extremely mad at everyone but the one she should have been angry with.
As she and her son left the store, I trailed them and heard her tell the boy, “Don’t worry, we’ll find somebody else to blame.” I wrote that statement down in the report as well. Later when he committed a much more serious felony level crime, I wasn’t surprised. Sad really.
Bob Miller, Professional Scapegoat Don’t become a shame, I’ll take the blame! No blame too big or too small! Car didn’t start? Blame It On Bob! Not enough money for rent? Blame It On Bob! Didn’t get your homework done? Blame It On Bob! Call now to schedule your blame!
