The FBI - for cheating on an open book exam. The exam was over knowing the limitations in conducting domestic surveillance. Apparently they thought that looking at your neighbor's exam was an acceptable form of domestic surveillance.

John Kerry - For trying to use a tax loophole to avoid almost $500000 in taxes for his new $7 million yacht. After voting numerous times to increase taxes while in Congress, apparently Kerry thought that it would be in his best interest to avoid paying them himself.

Dwayne Davis, Jr. - this week in St. Petersburg, Florida 23 year old Dwayne Davis Jr. accidentally turned himself in. Davis noticed himself pictured on the local news and called the cops to ask why. The Choice Food Store surveillance video captured Davis on June 12 pulling a man out of his car and then pistol whipping him. Bay News 9 just ran a story on unsolved cases showing surveillance pictures, which prompted Davis’s phone call to the cops. Despite identifying himself in the video, and being identified by the victim and the cops, Davis denies any involvement in the carjacking.

The Cincinnati Bengals - For signing Terrel Owens. This might not be a terrible signing if the Bengals didn't already have Chad Ochocinco or if they didn't have a rash of recent troubles with the law/team character and chemistry issues or if T.O. wasn't 36 or if T.O.'s receptions, receiving yards, and TDs hadn't decline for 3 years in a row, but since all of those are true, the Bengals are d-cases for making this signing (unless their goal is purely to get attention and market the team as a reality show instead of actually trying to win football games).
