19-Day Phone Sex Bender Ends in Fine, Jail
For the record, we've never used a sex hotline to get our rocks off. We've got a very active imagination that involves two hands and we've never been one for speaker phone. A one Carl Robert Thomas of the UK, one the other hand, he loves them. How much does he love them? Enough to spend £9,000 of stolen dough on telephonic titillation.
It seems Thomas took it upon himself to steal Liverpool's Anne Jeffrey's SIM card and spend 19 weiner-wacking days on the line. While certainly that's a lot of money, Thomas merely got a slap on his presumably sore wrist. UK law prohibits exhorbant fines for the unemployed, meaning a Liverpool judge could only fine Thomas £500 for his offense, in addition to 12 weeks in jail. Though following the law, Judge Nick Sanders wasn't happy about it. He says:
Your own gratification has caused others to suffer considerably and one can only feel sadness for the victim who faces horrifying debt... I would like to order compensation in full but the law requires me to take into account your means.
Who says masturbation's a victimless crime?
