Crime Spree Nets 285 Pairs of Designer Frames

Couple eventually caught for not wearing seatbelts.

A California couple traveled to Florida for a week-long crime spree that netted them 285 pairs of designer frames worth $85,000 from several LensCrafters stores in the Fort Lauderdale area. The pair intended to mail the items back to California and sell them there online and at swap meets, according to authorities.
