Steak theft?

Guys, you know I'm a meat lover, and I know some of you are too. But would any of you ever steal the steak right off someone else's grill?

Link to story
Meet Lindsey Blackledge. The 19-year-old California gal was arrested in July 2002 for possession of a stolen, 14-ounce tri-tip steak. According to the Calaveras County sheriff, the beef was swiped from the outdoor grill of Katherine King, a 38-year-old San Andreas woman who called cops after discovering her meat was missing. When police arrived at the crime scene, they discovered a trail of "meat juice" leading from King's grill to an upstairs apartment. Inside the apartment, investigators followed the meat drippings to a bathroom, where they found the purloined sirloin hidden in a cabinet below the sink. Blackledge--who was found in the apartment--was charged with a felony.

What kind of world do we live in where you can't even leave your steak to sizzle on the grill for a while without having to worry about some steak-snatcher poaching it?

It's a felony to steal steak? Didn't learn that in criminal law, that's for sure.

Yeah, I was also surprised to learn that it was a felony. That's a pretty heavy crime for a 14 oz. steak.

I bet it was on a dare, and she's actually a sexy sorority girl who wouldn't touch steak.
