Old Days

“Because that’s where the money is.”

(Image: source)

“Willie Sutton” (Wikipedia)

William “Willie” Sutton (June 30, 1901 – November 2, 1980) was a prolific U.S. bank robber. During his forty year criminal career he stole an estimated $2 million, and eventually spent more than half his adult life in prison. For his talent at executing robberies in disguises, he gained two nicknames, “Willie the Actor” and “Slick Willie.” When not disguised, Sutton was an immaculate dresser.

Sutton is famously known for answering a reporter, Mitch Ohnstad, who asked why he robbed banks by saying, “because that’s where the money is.” The quote formed the basis of Sutton’s law, often taught to medical students.

“I rob to survive.”

“Man Arrested in String of 12 Valley Bank Robberies” (abc15.com)

PHOENIX – An unemployed man accused of holding up 12 banks in the metropolitan Phoenix area told authorities that he drank alcohol before each holdup to work up his courage, saying: “I rob to survive.”

Cristian Alfredo Urquijo was arrested on 16 counts of armed robbery and using a firearm while committing a crime, authorities said Tuesday. He was indicted Thursday in the alleged spree over a 10-month period.

His Phoenix-based attorney, Candace Hewitt Kent, did not immediately return a call.

In a criminal complaint written last month, FBI Special Agent Geoffrey Young said Urquijo admitted to the robberies and said he drank alcohol before each of them.

He said he had been laid off from his job, according to the complaint.
