    It's terrible how they make these guys household names. Here we have Fat Freddy, also Overweight Owen, Large Larry, Obese Ollie, Glandular Gary. Terrible stuff.

    Because we have a right to know what's going on in our society.

    If a criminals moves are publicized, doesn't that make him less of a strong player in the criminal world:S

    EDIT: I'd totally watch a movie about this:O
