READ CAREFULLY
The verdict given by a judge to the thief...
A 15-year-old was caught stealing from a store in America. In an attempt to escape, the boy also destroyed a shelf...
After the judge heard the case, the boy asked:
"- Did you really steal something? Did you steal bread and cheese and destroy the shelf? ′′
The boy, embarrassed, with his head bowed, replied:
"- Yes ".
Judge: ′′ Why did you steal? ′′
Boy: ′′ I needed ".
Judge: ′′ You couldn't buy them instead of stealing?"
Boy: ′′ I had no money ′′
Judge: ′′ You could have asked your parents for money ′′
Boy: ′′ I only have my mother who is sick in bed and has no business. For her I stole the bread and cheese ′′
Judge: ′′ You don't do anything, you don't have a job? ′′
Boy: ′′ I worked in a car wash. Took the day off to help my mom and that's why I was fired. ′′ ′′
Judge: ′′ You weren't looking for something else to work elsewhere?"
After the end of the conversation with the boy, the judge announced the verdict:
′′ Stealing, especially stealing bread, is a very shameful crime. And here we are all responsible for this murder. Everyone present in this room today including myself are responsible for this murder...
So everyone present will pay a fine of $ 10 Nobody will leave here until they give $ 10 ′′
Judge took a $ 10 bill out of his pocket, took a pen and started writing:
′′ Furthermore, I have fined the owner of the store concerned who handed the hungry boy $ 1.000 to the police. If the fine is not paid within an hour, the store will remain closed."
Everyone present apologized to the boy and gave him all the money raised...
The judge left the courtroom hiding his tears...
After hearing the verdict, those present in the room had eyes full of tears...
I wonder if our society, our system, our courts could get such a verdict...
The judge added: ′′ If a person is caught stealing bread, all community, society and state people should be ashamed!"
