Detectives from the Elk Grove Police Department (California) arrested two former Apple Computer employees, Dominic Aguilar, 31, and Richard Mejia, 36, in connection with a conspiracy to burglarize Apple Computer located at 2911 Laguna Boulevard.
Detectives received information that a burglary would take place on Sunday, August 26, 2007. Detectives were able to contact Apple Computer and with the assistance of their corporate security, began a surveillance of the business.
On Sunday at 2:30 a.m., Detectives observed Dominic Aguilar and Richard Mejia gain access to Apple Computer grounds by cutting a hole in an exterior chain link fence. Once both suspects made their way onto Apple Computer property, they attempted to forcibly enter an exterior door to the business. The suspects were unsuccessful in their attempt and fled the area when Detectives approached. The suspects fled on foot into a nearby creek in an attempt to escape.
The Elk Grove Police Department began a systematic search for the suspects utilizing Elk Grove Officers, Elk Grove Police K-9 Units and the Sacramento County Sheriff’s Department helicopter. Both suspects were eventually located and arrested for 182 Penal Code (Conspiracy) and 664/459 Penal Code (Attempted Burglary).

The non-dynamic duo.

Did Mr. Bill Gates pay them anything to do that?

The perfect punishment: make them work using Windows computers for the rest of their lives!
that’s a shame–they look like they would be quite friendly and knowledgeable of Apple products–and shanks..
I’m pretty sure those were the guys helping me at the local Genius Bar last week.
MDN,
I just had to look once I saw “with mugshots” in the title.
Why do celebrities (and these fools to an extent) look like total crap in every mugshot. Nick Nolte or Mel Gibson anyone?
Ha ha. You said “penal”….
prut prut,
Too damn funny!!!
…and shanks. LOL!
But but but…I thought there was no such thing as “conspiracies”?! Clearly these cops are nuts! Break out the tinfoil hats fellas!!
Just waiting for the Libs to start blaming George Bush for this. And how it’s Apple’s fault for not catering to every whining demand from these two while they were employees……
Cubert, Victoria Beckham wouldn’t let the police borrow her hair and makeup people after the DMV wouldn’t retake her photo.
Holy Crap! I was good friends with Dominic’s family. They use to babysit me when I was a little kid. We we still friends up until a months ago when his cousin welched on a $2500 loan from us. I guess it runs in the family.
Um, “Apple, Inc.”; not “Apple Computer”.
Remember…”shank” is the noun, and “shiv” is the verb….
Hey, maybe they’ll team up with the Dell Dude in jail…low fives for everyone.
Have a nice ride guys. Don’t drop the soap!
Bad Boys, Bad Boys. What ya gonna do. What ya gonna do when they come for you.
To be broadcast next month on COPS.
The guy on the right kinda looks as though the “detectives” had a swell time beating on his dome.
And is it me or does the dude on the left looks like his face is slowly melting or sliding off . . .
Dig a little deeper and you’ll find out they’re also behind glossy monitors, iPhone batteries and iMovie ’08.
At least they will be by tomorrow morning.
Which one is Gates and which one is Ballmer?
Are they legal?
hey Jerry
just outta curiosity, whats the “conservative” view of all the scandals currently rocking the dubya administration ?
Honestly, how you get a political inference from a story about two alledged bonehead criminals is beyond me
Go back to your Fox News liberal conspiracy theories and stay off your moms computer !
“does the dude on the left looks like his face is slowly melting”
No, but his cheeks are a bit puffy from the 20 pairs of earbuds he stashed into his mouth.
The one on the right will be hot fun in prison.
