Bad Hatter Bandit turns FBI into fashion police

I think she pulls it off...

After outdoing itself earlier this week by way of its moniker for the Super Freak Bandit, the Rocky Mountain Safe Streets Task Force, the agency charged with nicknaming local bank robbers, has taken on a new beat: fashion policing.

Note that its latest alert focuses on a scofflaw dubbed the Bad Hatter, "for obvious reasons."

Isn't that a little cruel, guys? The topper seen here may not be the stuff of Fashion Week runways, but is it really that bad?

Okay, it is. Definitely. Check out more shots of the wanted woman below, along with that FBI release.
