When I read "stupid crooks" I thought you meant it in an oh-those-gosh-darn-crooks-making-life-hard-for-everyone kind of way, but man. Yeah. Stupid crooks.

Why is the Dallas Morning News running local news from New Zealand? And why had it not been Benny Hillified before now?

Collywobbles, easy-peasy.
Kiwis aren't Aussies.
However, considering the recent inhumane billboard ad campaign Australia ran regarding drink driving, these gents might be forgiven for panicking - I'm not finding the article, but it involved a pic of a burly (purported) prisoner and text insinuating sexual assault awaited the incarcerated.

You're no doubt aware that there are websites (probably dozens of them) that specialize in stupid-crook stories. Like this one.
This one.
