Underpant thief in court
1:33pm Monday 14th July 2008
A 27-year-old landscape gardener who stole a £3 pair of underpants was ordered to pay a total of £335 when he appeared at Oxford Crown Court on Friday.
Judge Patrick Eccles heard that Matthew Webb, of Calder Way, Didcot, stole the pants from a shop in the town in January and was convicted after a trial at Oxford Magistrates' Court - which put him in breach of a previous community order.
Judge Eccles fined Webb £50 and ordered him to pay a £15 victim surcharge and £270 costs.

By this logic, that girl's life was worth a little less that 7 pairs of pants.
I dont think any further comment is required!
