MJP –
Judging is still a major issue in Texas, about 50 incidents of juggling have been reported in Plano, Texas alone. Death is a real possibility during this criminal era; therefore, you should exercise extreme caution and maintain vigilance.
The first time I saw the word “jugging,” I was as confused as the rest of us. I knew it was bad since it was a felony, but the fact that Texans would even consider it is shocking.
Four cases of bank juggling have been reported recently, and the McKinney, Texas police department wants the public to know about it in the hopes that no one else falls victim.
First things first: what is bank juggling? Because this kind of crime spreads fast—and McKinney is only a couple hours away from Tyler, Texas—everyone has to know.

When a thief observes you entering a bank, they may “juggle” you by leaving the establishment with an envelope, hoping that it contains cash. It will just take a few seconds for the thief to watch where you placed the money, follow you to your next stop, and then break your window to steal it.
How to Stay Away from “Jugging” in Texas
Do not leave valuables in your car if you want to withdraw a big sum of money from an ATM or bank. Be mindful of your environment as much as possible. Keep in mind that you can always drive to the police station if you feel someone is following you after you leave a bank.
Judging Occurs All Over the Place, Not Just at Banks
‘Jugging’ is also happening at high-end stores, however, banks appear to be the most common targets. Wherever criminals believe they may evade punishment, that is where they will commit their crimes. Therefore, you should do all in your power to prevent this kind of conduct.
For instance, you should not leave the bank holding an envelope or making any other move that would suggest you may be departing with a large sum of money.
If these crooks attempt this on the wrong Texan, it will be their final day on earth. Let’s pray they get found soon.
