For anyone who hasn’t heard of the Barefoot Bandit, your missing out on our generations John Dillinger, or Bonnie and Clyde. Colton Harris-Moore is a 19 year old kid that different law organizations believe is responsible for HUNDREDS of burglaries, and stealing 3 airplanes and a half million dollar yacht. Holy SHIT this kid is ballsy. Who steals a damn airplane?? Not hijacks, but flat out steals!? He never learned how to fly, and different investigators feel he taught himself with manuals and other information. He didn’t fully teach himself which was pretty obvious when you see that all 3 airplanes he was suspected of stealing have crashlanded. What a bad ass.
Right now the FBI has a $10,000 reward out for him, which isn’t much for an outlaw.. John Dillinger had a 10,000 reward out on him from the FBI, but that was 70 years ago. Unlike the old school outlaws of the wild west and depression era “public enemies” Harris-Moore is a non-violent outlaw. Shauna Snyder is a private investigator and paralegal in Washington State that has helped with Harris-Moores defense in the past, and firmly believes he will not be a violent offender. She has explained that no previous crime or personality indications show that he will commit any violent crimes.
His life wasn’t exactly happy and peaceful and he just became a whiney pussy and rebelled. Colton grew up on Camano Island in Washington where his Dad walked out when he was 2 years old, then a stepfather came in but died shortly after his 7th birthday. His mom has explained in interviews that the death of his stepdad left Colton disconnected and different. He got nailed for his first crime, theft, when he was just 12.
Colton continued to rebel while growing up and his mom has also explained that cops harassed him constantly 
on Camano Island and blamed him for crimes he had nothing to do with. His mother was quite poor and Colt grew up in very low income situations. Harassment and mistreatment continued for many years in his hometown and finally in 2007 he was charged with 23 different felonies. The prosecutor didn’t go after him due to having a weak case and he got a plea bargain for 3 years at the age of 16. Part of it in Juvy, and part in a group home. But in 2008 while at the group home he escaped, and has been on the loose since. Its been over 2 years since he escaped and since then he has been suspected of burglaries and thefts all over the country. Hitting Washington, Idaho, Illinois, Iowa, Nebraska and South Dakota, also getting out of country into Canada and now the Bahamas.
So hes a thief.. why is he called the Barefoot Bandit? Apparently in most of his crimes hes committed them while Barefoot… thus the name.
This guys antics have been getting noticed every where, and hes even got website fan pages that have been made for him and a facebook fan page approaching 50,000 fans. So why is a thief and outlaw getting so much attention and love?
Ive got to think it’s the underdog story… The kid with nothing, who lived a mediocre life got tired of it and now hes able to fly airplanes, sail on half million dollar yachts, and travel the world. Even though its all illegal it appeals to anyone especially in such god awful economic times. His name is out there and getting bigger, but the FBI seems to be getting close to his capture. Yet while he is out there the little guy is beating the man, the lower class is spitting in the face of the upper class and who doesn’t like that? Sure we cant have everyone out their stealing and doing anything they want, but while Colton is out there and defying authority Ill be rooting for him.

Damn what a bad ass. Living burglary to burglary instead of paycheck to paycheck. KEEP FIGHTING ON KID!
Joined his facebook fan page, haha im such a follower. Keep going Colt, much respect!
Just like that movie Catch Me If You Can….that was a good movie personally lol
Jesus.. I write an article on the guy and he gets captured 3 days later. WHACK.
mutha fucka needz time hardcore if he was black the equation would be different niggazz.
he ain’t no bad ass he ain’t no thug he stole and what the fuck he got to show for it but a bunch o hollyweird mutha fuckaz knocking at his low rent mommies door…. the mom needs to look in da mirror on WHAT the fuck she raised wrong…now she will be driving Bently wit spinnaz 24″. This article and ya all don’t know any ethics to bring up this faggot boy…he’z gonna be someones bitch before he collectz…
bonstuvious your a fucking idiot, if a black dude escaped and committed one crime he wouldnt be on the run for more than 2 days, let alone 2 years. Your right, he “aint no thug” because hes a 19 year old white kid thats smarter than your dumbass. Talk like a human being you fucking dipshit.
I don’t know if God exists, but it would be better for His reputation if He didn’t
I think its absurd but i can see them making a movie. Thanks for the info…yea no shit u write the article and then he gets caught..crazy stuff.
I so saw something about this kid on t.v. recently
I cant until they make a movie about this kid
yo johnny law what you saying the because he is white is smarter than a black individual that he lasted on the fucking lam as long as he did….this kid is fucking lucky you fucking dumb as kook! what the fuck you know pussy!
Hi everybody,
I understand from reading the posts that some of you think that Colton did something good. Could you please explain to me why you might support him in his actions, instead of just seeing him as an ordinary thief? Is it because he stole airplanes instead of something else? What makes him different than your ordinary thief? Please feel free to use plain language and just tell me: what is so great about him? I’m genuinely curious and I appreciate a frank response. Thank you to anyone who can shed light on this for me.
Yours truly,
Squirrel
