A man named Martin Williams, who is obviously not smart, was caught red-handed wearing a shirt he allegedly stole from NFL star Julio Jones’ Atlanta home after breaking in. I’m thinking someone else broke in, stole the shirt, and sold it to him.

According to Atlanta police, they have made an arrest in connection to a burglary at the Atlanta home of Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Julio Jones.
On Tuesday, Atlanta police responded to a burglary at Julio’s home in the upscale Buckhead neighborhood. Media Take Out learned that officers were told that various pieces of clothing, jewelry and shoes belonging to Julio were missing, prompting police to round up a physical description of a suspect and broadcast it over the radio.
Martin Williams, 31, of Bowling Green, Kentucky, was spotted by an off-duty police officer matching the description and wearing one of Jones’ sweatshirts. He has been charged with two counts of first-degree burglary and is in Fulton County jail.
Police say they have most – if not all of Julio’s belongings – and the NFL baller can retrieve his items when he returns to Atlanta.
Jones, 33, spent 10 seasons with the Atlanta Falcons, becoming the franchise’s all-time career receiving yards leader with 12,896 yards in 2019 and earning seven trips to the Pro Bowl. He was traded to the Tennessee Titans in 2021 and released one year later, signing with the Bucs as a free agent in 2022.
This has to go one the world’s dumbest criminal’s top 10 list. He deserves extra time in jail just for being this dumb.
Plus, he is lucky the cops didn’t just shoot him. You know how trigger-happy they are out there in Atlanta. This could have easily gone horribly wrong if it was a different cop.
