I've heard of stealing panties, but not socks...

BELLEVILLE, Ill. - James Dowdy has admitted his hankering for women's hosiery has been his undoing, earning him three stints in prison and repeated scoldings from judges over the years. So police say it's no surprise the 36-year-old man is knee deep in trouble again because of his lust for leggings.

Actually, the best part of the article is this:
"To the best of our knowledge, he's just after the socks," Sax said. "Generally, they are almost always female socks."

Maybe he's intimidated by male socks? :D

Why can't he just buy them female leggings from a department store or a catalog or something?

Well that's no fun, is it? It's all about the thrill of the chase...

Not like I would know about that or anything.

i have some unsafe socks, they're like walking on an oil slick on ice if there's a laminate floor.

Seems like the guy has a foot fetish, but rather instead of buying female socks he'd rather steal ones that actually have been on female feet. Not only that, but maybe he felt too strange trying to purchase them...yes, it's true...people will do something completely fucking stupid so they don't feel stupid.

I'd imagine if they were able to pull a DNA testing on the sock-napped apparel :P

I never did like socks. They constrict my leg hair.

Is there really a difference between male and female socks?...I thought socks were unisex...

Have you seen a man wear those little white socks with the pink silk bows on the sides? :D

You don't know what all has been stuck in a male sock.
Think about that for a moment . . . a little longer . . . now VISUALIZE!

And how does one "unreasonably" drop a stolen sock? What does that even mean? I think that the D.A. might also be in need of some time in a mental hospital.

Well... you know, he could get a really harsh sentence for his 4th offense, the judge could blow him out of his socks!
