Larceny by Finding

[bitingmidge]

OK you blokes, all that Corby and getting busted stuff is all getting a a bit heavy!

Today I heard of the young bank Johnnie in Sydney who was found by Mr Plod with $250,000 in cash in a bag under his desk. He claimed he had found it in the street, and since he had made no attempt to find the owner was charged with "Larceny by Finding" which I thought was pretty cool really. (Maybe not for him!)

Perhaps to answer SilentC's question on another thread, if the hash he stood on (hypothetically) had stuck to his shoes he could be charged with "Possession by Treading".

Then of course there'd be lots of other opportunities.

Just wondering what else one could be charged with?

Cheers,

But what would be the penalty?

It couldn't be banishment or we'd all end up out on the naughty step. :eek:

What about 'sex by thinking' ??? If it's crime, me and Kylie are guilty

[bitingmidge]

Larceny by posting three copies of the same post to one thread perhaps??

What, reading them or posting them

Craig (who's been thinking of petioning to shut that one down )

We had a PC stolen over a number of weeks, bit by bit. They never caught the guy who did it. That could be "theft by installments" perhaps?

Then there was the guy who was busted taking home toilet rolls. He smuggled a whole carton out roll by roll over a couple of weeks. That could be "grand theft bogroll"?

It had crosssed my mind. I unsubscribed from it a while ago

I know it's only the 2nd of June but I think that that qualifies as "Bad Pun of The Month" Iain

It's not a bad pun it's plagiarism.
