*If* i got arrested, it would have been when I got caught siphoning gas as a teenager. Got about $2 worth before the security guard found us.
Arrested, charged with "Theft Under $1000," strip-searched (underage and without parental supervision or permission), police broke my nose, and then I spent the night in a cell. Followed by 8 monthly court visits where I plead guilty each time saying "quit wasting everyone's time and money, and give me a suitable punishment for stealing $2 of gasoline!" Followed by the police releasing my juvenile name to the public (illegal in Ontario), and the charge eventually being dropped.
I can only IMAGINE the drama if I'd been a $35 kingpin!
*If* this was a true story.
