Criminal or Hero?: Relatable Crimes of Modern Times

Righteous, hapless, misguided, or unlucky—these law-breaking incidents will make you laugh, frown, scratch your head, and reconsider how society sees crimes and those who commit them. From political actions to mistaken thefts, unfortunate miscommunications to gleeful mischief, the most sympathetic person in these stories is usually the one on the wrong side of the law. Inside, you'll encounter headlines featuring women who remove boots from cars for a community-friendly fee, renegades who confuse self-driving cars with traffic cones, a guy dressed up as a Christmas tree, and more, with choice details and a little art to match. Read to be entertained and consider what we consider criminality in a new light—and you, too, can argue with your friends about your faves and foes within!
