He knows everything there is to know 'bout da illegal shrimpin' bidness.
Nice
That's how you turn petty theft into attempted murder. You go shrimp dude. You'll like prison -- plenty of bottom feeders.
Dude, really?
Dude, really?
Any shrimp worth stealing, does not come in a box!

....and they're running out of shrimp..
Hey, that guy
is stealing our shrimp. I'm going to get a picture of his license plate by standing directly in front of his car.
File this action under "bulb, not the brightest."
It all makes sense now
Someone is obviously scheming to get rich off of high-quality photos of shrimp.
Hmm
Something smells fishy here...
Look for ads on
Craigslist of shrimp for sale and you'll "catch" your shrimp thief
Doubt it
He's probably working to order.
Suspect involved
Is merely a prawn in a larger scheme to drive up the price of seafood.
