That reminds me of one of my favorite quotes:

It is fate, destiny or nemesis. Perhaps the dawning of knowledge, the coming of sin. Or more prosaically, the catastrophe that awaits everyone from a single false move, wrong turn, fatal encounter. Every life has such a moment. What distinguishes us is whether -- and how -- we ever come back.

Dude needs to tighten up that beard for his perp shot if he ever wants a chance for a cameo on "Americas dumbest criminals".

Props to the Strongsville Police for a job well done, I bet if they go Abu Ghraib on Paxton for the other two cards and he'll fold like a cheap card table, leading to a 3rd arrest.

It's weird I assumed he had just managed to unload two cards and would gladly tell the police to whom he sold them (as opposed to a third conspirator) to try and show cooperation at this point. I figured they'd be back in hand in a few days.

I agree. Maybe he did and they just haven't been able to locate the person yet? Look how long it took to make the second arrest, and that was for storing the cards which were presumably at his house where they were located. You would have thought he would have been arrested faster than 2 weeks if the cards were found at his house.

Maybe he sold them to random people at the show (non-table holders) and doesn't know who they were.
