Each week in our local paper,they print the details of who's been in court this week.
Normally,this is a roll-call of 'drank too much,drove something they shouldn't've, took something they shouldn't've or whacked somebody they shouldn't've.' Occasionally, you get the criminal genius who wanders in...
Takers-of-things-they-shouldn't...(Large Ambitions)
My alltime favourite was 'Taking a Vehicle Without the Owner's Consent(namely the Dartmouth Ferry) Yep,they cut the mooring line and thought no-one would notice a large boat floating through the middle of town..
Takers-of-things-they-shouldn't...(Oddly Specific)
'theft of 23 cases of cheese and 23 boxes of crackers'.
Takers-of-things-they-shouldn't...(Unambitious)
'theft of one sandwich,value £1.05'
'theft of one ceramic dish,value £1'
Takers-of-things-they-shouldn't...(Ambitious,but Hungry)
'theft of credit card,mobile phone,wallet,hair straighteners,variety of bank cards... and Kellogg's Coco Pops to a value unspecified'
Drug-dealers...(Unambitious)
'Possession of cannabis,to a street value of NINEPENCE.' (Yes,it was mentioned at court how much time and effort was put into pursuing the owner of basically a very tiny leaf'
Possession of weapon... (Ambitious)
'Unauthorized possession in a public place of a screwdriver,a pocket knife and a SIX FOOT axe'
Destroyer-of-property... (Bemusing)
'Criminal damage of £300 to a door.... fine increased as was racially motivated'--he didn't like the colour of the door?
