It should also be pointed out that you probably don't hear about the skilled criminals because they don't get caught.

Yeah there is more than a little bit of selection bias going on here.
What percentage of criminals are dumb enough to get noticed and/or caught? Well, we don't know how many don't get noticed, so let's call it zero. Bam, 100% get noticed/caught!
