IQ VS STREET SMARTS
These people are the chess players of the criminal world. They generally have a genius IQ and their mental knights and bishops are always on the attack. They never anticipate being checkmated. They are astonished when a cop of average intelligence rooks them, and the cop is always astonished at their motives. Crime as challenge? Jesus (13)
