As we all know the notorious gang of criminal brothers, the Beagle Boys, have been pestering our fair city for years. They have committed uncountable crimes from their headquarters in the shabby El Rat Hole Apts. in the notorious end of Duckburg, with no thought for anything else than to get rich. For that purpose they have a fleet of specialized get-away cars that can transport them anywhere and support them in their dastardly deeds with the versatile tools the vehicles are carrying.
The Boys even have a union, Burglars, Thugs, and Pirates Union, Local No. 6½, to support their criminal schemes.

Luckily, the brothers are so bungling (for one, they always flaunt their prison numbers on their chests for easy identification!!!), that they never end up with any money, but they have more than once left the city in turmoil and in ruins. Their latest feat was to steal 5 giant robots in order to run off with trillionaire Scrooge McDuck's money, and for this and the ensuing destruction they got the maximum prison sentence. This was last year.

Although their multiple crimes have earned them several hundreds years of prison time in the Studious Hours Prison north of Duckburg, the city council has, once again,

released all the brothers with a remark that they have mended their ways. In fact, during the past year they have all obtained fine master's degrees and diplomas in various highly scientific skills to be used for good purposes upon their release, but is that enough to free them???

176-617 says: We are indeed reformed!

McDuck has filed yet another harsh protest saying that 'the dreadful gang will never learn' and 'they will always be after my hard-earned petty cash'.

This reporter agrees with McDuck! How can the city council release such hardened and repetitious criminals after only a year? Granted, they have never broken out of prison, but that is simply because they stay in there for too short a period of time to come up with an escape plan! This is scandalous. We all know that the Studious Hours Prison is hopelessly overcrowded with prisoners, but it is very shortsighted to release the worst gang in the state in order to make room for petty criminals.

Just in: Well, maybe the Boys have indeed mended their ways after all? At least, they have only been spotted in the ancient castle ruins of The Mad Duke of Duckburg, where no valuables are present. McDuck, apparently you can rest easy after all...
