Who says that criminals have to look as bad as their horrible actions? Meet the "Mad Hatters," an all-female pickpocket ring made up of middle-aged and elderly women in Detroit who sport stylish hats:
"We know they're an organized group because when we looked at the incidents, the person suspected of stealing a wallet wasn't the person committing the fraud," Riley said. "We'd get a report of a white female in the area suspected of theft and then a black female would commit the credit card fraud.
"The common denominator between the suspects is that they all are wearing hats at the time of the theft and-or fraud, which has caused the group to be dubbed the 'Mad Hatters' by the financial institutions," the Sterling Heights Police Department said in a statement.
The hats run the gambit from floppy beach hats to a variety of berets colored black, white and blue.
If Hollywood doesn't come up with a movie inspired by this gang soon, I'll eat my hat: Link

Not quite right. It was the foreigners (The Normans) who built the castles.
Oh, because none of it is correct, that will be why.
If the writer of it is British then she lives in a totally different Britain to the rest of us (even allowing for the passage of time).
