I’m thinking that at Kozan’s house they found self-made video of him in the act. That seems to be the only way they could actually charge him for 100 counts, no?
Even if they caught him in the act once, they still only have one count… I cant believe the surveillance video at the victim’s house clearly depicted 100 incidents…
EDIT:
Good point, @daneel: Could be a case of self-incrimination, too. They get him alone, hand him a shovel, and let him dig himself a deeper and deeper hole. (Weird how low the bail is for 100 counts of vandalism.)
So I go to a bar the other day, I ask Sam (yes, his name is Sam, just like the guy in Casablanca, which I haven’t seen, also I made him up and this never happened to me) if he has any interesting drinks that I’m unlikely to have tried and he pulls a bottle of Yoo-Hoo out of a fridge below the bar and pours it in a shaker with ice and soda water. Sam then gets out a tiny funnel and places it gently into a carefully emptied egg-shell that I guess he emptied that morning during his prep work (Sam is a busy guy, but it’s hard to tell watching him make drinks and small talk). So he pours the mix into the egg (gently, gently) with the egg sitting in one of those hard-boiled-egg holders you see at yard sales sometimes and he puts one of those red / black / green / whatever coffee-stirring straws which are like the golf-pencils of the straw world, and he slides his handiwork toward me.
“Egg-Straw Special” Sam declared, cooly.
“Sam, you didn’t put any liquor in this,” but he just gestures me to try it. He filled the straw with bourbon! Special indeed.
I thought you were making a poultry pun until I realized you were telling me the genre of the thing I just composed. To answer your question: yes, I think so.
From the look of the egged house in the linked story I would suggest a good punishment would be sanding all the egg off the house and giving it a new paint job. I suspect that would take significantly longer than the time spent in 100 egg attacks.
