Campus Cop Charged With Stealing Donuts
NBC New York ^ | October 30, 2008

Posted on 10/30/2008 7:38:03 AM PDT by NCjim

State police say an upstate New York college campus policeman was helping himself to free pastries at a local convenience store.

The Valero Nice N Easy offers free coffee to any police officer in uniform.

Sgt. Steve Brody of the Morrisville State College University Police stopped daily to buy a newspaper and pick up a free cup of coffee. He also routinely stuffed a pastry into his coat.

Brody is now accused of taking about $30 worth of pastries over at least 17 separate occasions.

Brody, 55, of Morrisville, was ticketed for petit larceny. Troopers say they have surveillance videos.

Brody and his defense attorney declined to comment. Brody remains an employee at Morrisville; school officials say the case is a personnel matter and refused further comment.

Brody, 55, of Morrisville, was ticketed for petit larceny

Woldn’t that be petty larceny? I’m confused, is he accused of small stealing (petty larceny) or stealing small( petit larceny?).

It's not polite to talk with your mouth full.

The technical term is “petit” and it is pronounced as “petty” - it is one of many bits of Norman French (”mortgage”, “lien”) that are still embedded in our common law jargon.

Apparently he was off duty.

This is what we will have to deal with when the dems get power. Anything done by dems while "off duty" will be ok.

Some of the legal terms come from the French language. Thus there is grand larceny (grande means “large” in French) and petit larceny (petit means “small” in French).
