Weird Criminal Law Stories

Although Professor Birdsong has been involved in serious criminal law work over the years as a prosecutor, a defense attorney, and a law professor, Professor Birdsong knows that it's good to stay grounded. This means taking time to look at the many funny and weird criminal law stories that crop up around the United States and the world. He believes we should not always take criminal law so seriously and instead, just have a good laugh at some of the silly foibles of dumb criminals and their crimes.

Professor Birdsong hopes you will get a few good laughs or at least, some chuckles, from this collection of weird criminal law stories and his "snarky" commentary accompanying each of them. Enjoy
