Tony stole the equivalent of 4400 GBP from a bank but was only charged with taking the equivalent of 3200 GBP. The cops knew he took the 4400 and so did the judge and the jury. | ||

Did the exchange rate change? | ||

The word "equivalent" is setting off alarm bells for me... Relevant exactly what Tony stole? How he stole it? SBQs about Tony (male, adult, living etc.)? | ||

Did he steal 800 GBP of his own property? | ||

Was this a typical hold-up (Tony walks into bank, demands money, displays weapon, is handed money, leaves)? If not, which of these elements is inaccurate: Entering bank? Walking into bank? Demanding money (vocally, via note)? Displaying weapon? Being given money? Leaving? Was he armed? Is the type of weapon relevant? Did he leave anything behind at the bank? When he left the bank, did he have in his possession 3200 pounds? 4400? A different amount? did he make it home with any of the loot? All of it? | ||

Yes Is the type of weapon relevant? Yope-not the type exactly. It was a gun. Did he leave anything behind at the bank? No When he left the bank, did he have in his possession 3200 pounds? 4400? This one. A different amount? did he make it home with any of the loot? All of it? This one. By Jens Weber (Sundowner) on Wednesday, March 02, 2005 - 07:29 pm: Did the bank owe him 1200 pounds?

Relevant how Tony was caught? Any details of the robbery or the getaway relevant? On the 'yope' above ... is some aspect or characteristic of the gun relevant? Is it a real gun? Was it loaded? Is there something unusual about it? | ||

|
Oh, and no problem.. I see those posts all hit right near each other. | ||

Did the bank report that 3200 had been stolen? Was anyone else charged with anything in the crime? Was the bank or some employee(s) thereof involved in something illegal? Taxes relevant? Insurance? Are there any relevant laws we need to discover? Would it have made any significant difference in the case if he'd been charged with stealing 4400 vs. 3200? In the sentence (if found guilty)? | ||

No to these...but you're leaning in the right direction Are there any relevant laws we need to discover? Yesish Would it have made any significant difference in the case if he'd been charged with stealing 4400 vs. 3200? Yes, it would have changed how much he was required to pay back. In the sentence (if found guilty)? Only as noted above | ||
