There are people right now sitting in prisons and even on death row who have been convicted on the flimsiest, sometimes entirely spurious evidence - but his confession and being in possession of the drugs is not enough evidence to proceed...

Another angle on the shortcomings of the criminal justice system...

Six years on from the banking meltdown, hardly anyone has had his/her collar felt, although there doesn't seem to be any shortage of evidence.

I suppose that if enough people are to blame, no-one is responsible.

Kid probably heard him say he was a farmer and thought farmers have chickens and eggs. And he was hungry and surely a farmer could spare some eggs. "Give a hungry boy some food, would you, Sir? A couple eggs? Surely you could spare some eggs."

Or was the kid delusional from dehydration/starvation and saw the farmer as a big chicken? I once saw something like that in a movie.
