James Duke, 28, didn't get a whole lot from two January robberies -- but his tactics apparently suited him well, at least in the beginning. Armed in women's clothing and with a long-barreled gun, police say he snagged a total of $316.

The outfit, however, made it pretty easy to connect him to other robberies once he was caught.
