Benefits of stealing

Ever thought that instead of getting punished you might end up getting paid, that too for hurting yourself in the process?  Well, in Europe such possibilities are very high.  Read this short news article from The Times of today.
People forget what a taxing, stressful occupation burglary is.  Take the chap in Cavan, Ireland, who tried to rob a shop during the small hours. Pitch black. And then the cops turn up. Frantic to make his escape, the burglar cut his scrotum on the sharp edge of a shelf. Quite rightly, the burglar is now suing the shop owner for genital trauma. The owner, called Kevin, has been told by the Personal Injuries Assessment Board that it will cost him £600 to contest the case. Hopefully he will be forced to sand down those edges and fit them with rubber or plastic moulding so the next time a burglar robs his store he can do so without sacrificing a testicle.
