Popular Post Catoni Posted October 10, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 10, 2021 It’s very rare….but some people down on their luck in countries like Canada and the U.S. and in Europe will actually commit a crime to get arrested. For the opportunity to get a cell, good roof over their head, warmth in Winter, and three meals a day. There’s all kinds of people in the world. Even those who prefer jail and regular meals to being down on their luck and sleeping on park benches or in homeless encampments. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So did he do it for the money or to be caught and sent to jail where he'll be fed & watered? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
