Update: Wisconsin "dumbass white boy" now tied to Eau Claire burglaries

Last week Christopher J. Parker of Eau Claire, Wisconsin was arrested on Chicago's South Side after attempting to bribe a police officer with $100,000. He described himself to the cops as a "dumbass white boy from Wisconsin." But it appears he had the cash, someone bailed Parker out of Cook County Jail with $90,000.

But that story got Eau Claire County Sheriff Ron Cramer thinking.

"If he's got $100,000 to bribe an officer with in Chicago he's a big roller so lets take a look and see what we can do. Did he commit a burglary, armed robbery what did this guy do," Cramer told WEAU-TV. Parker was arrested in Wisconsin after stolen items were found in his home. He's being held in jail but has not been charged with any crimes.

Being a "dumbass" is not against the law in America's Dairyland.
