LEHIGH VALLEY, PA - The introduction of the evil twin is a class move on daytime soap operas, but a Pennsylvania robber found out that plot twist is less successful in a real courtroom.

During his trial for more than ten different robberies in the Lehigh Valley, Steven Felton testified the man in surveillance videos was none other than ... his evil twin.

Felton also acted as his own attorney during the trial, hollering things like "Freedom of Speech!" and "Unfair prejudice!" The jury didn't buy it and found him guilty on dozens of counts. For his serial crimes, courtroom antics and crazy defense, we find him deserving of Dumbass of the Day.
