Whats the offence? [GAME]

Victor

Anto and Mick don't have enough money to buy two tickets to the cinema. So they buy one, Anto distracts the usher and Mick sneaks past. Anto then uses the ticket to enter. Both watch the film.

Has Mick committed: trespass, fraud, theft? More than that?

I'd have assumed theft of service he avoided paying for by trespassing into a restricted area. Though I doubt he would get trespassing on him: he was already on the premesis by the time he got to the usher. Theft definitely.

Deco goes to the barbers shop, gets his number 1 "cut" and as the barber is ringing up the amount of money, Deco legs it out the door, never to be seen again.

Offence?

Q: Coatcheck in a nightclub: finds a cloak ticket on the ground and redeems it for the correlating coat

Fraud. You've misrepresented yourself as someone else i.e. the owner of the coat.

Q: You're sitting in a café and overhear two people talking about robbing the bank across the street. Police appeal for witnesses, you do not step forward.

If it's the same Dearbhla I'm thinking of from Club 92, there's no charge.

I'm guessing Public decency act or perhaps liquor licensing laws ?
