Did you hear about this perv??
Underwear Bandit NabbedMan suspected of long string of women's panties thefts is caught.

(Mayfield Heights-AP) -- Police in Mayfield Heights say they have arrested a man suspected of stealing women's underwear from apartments.

For years someone has been breaking into apartment buildings in the Cleveland area and swiping underwear, most often panties.

Police say Remigio Abello III, 46, of Twinsburg was arrested Tuesday night after a couple saw him come out of an apartment with a laundry basket. The apartment building residents knew he did not live there and they apprehended him. He was charged yesterday with one count of second-degree burglary. Police say he could face additional charges. He was being held in Mayfield Heights City Jail.

Abello's lawyer is Larry Zukerman. He says Abello has no criminal history and is law-abiding.

On Wednesday police searched Abello's Twinsburg home, which he shares with his wife. The search turned up women's briefs, T-shirts and sweatshirts, all packed in bags in a crawl space. Police also found photographs of women that had been stolen during several recent burglaries.


What can I say but there's a lot of sicko's out there!
