He Found Them On The Street

When someone steals 13 city storm drain covers and sells them to a scrap metal dealer, they arrest him, but I think that's only part of what they need to do. They need to go after the dealer. After all, there are plenty of dealers who buy obviously stolen stuff like storm drain covers and catalytic converters. So... why not punish any metal dealer who buys stolen goods? If there's no market for raw wiring that's been clipped and brought in by an obvious tweaker, the tweakers won't steal metal. (Hartford Courant)
