Reminds me of a news report I read about 30 years ago in Denver. A crook was suing the police department for cruel and unusual punishment. They caught him exiting a meat packing warehouse after triggering a silent alarm with a box on his shoulder. It was dark inside so he didn’t know what he grabbed, but thought he had a big box of steaks. Turns out he had a box of cow rectums similar to your picture.
The “cruelty” by the police was them making fun of him. They were calling him the “a—hole bandit” and things like that.
Now, that’s humiliating. Imagine taking those home to mama... “Look, hon, steaks! Uh—oops.”
