5.0 out of 5 stars Some real funny stuff, July 2, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Wanted! Dumb or Alive (Paperback)
Wow, I can't believe the customer who wrote the first review gave it only two stars.

This is one of the best books I've read about law enforcement, showing the lighter side in the world of crime and in light of high-profile cases. Who can seriously resist getting a good laugh out of these dumb crooks?

If I could give it more stars, I'd give it a ten!

2.0 out of 5 stars Is the title, dumb or alive? or is the people who buy it?, March 1, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Wanted! Dumb or Alive (Paperback)
I rather think that it is a toss-up whether those who buy this book are the dumbest, or those who are inside it's covers. It was mildly amusing, but little else.
