In a ruling sure to heighten migration tensions in the EU, Italy’s highest court rules “Theft Not a Crime if Hungry“.

Stealing small amounts of food to stave off hunger is not a crime, Italy’s highest court of appeal has ruled.

Judges overturned a theft conviction against Roman Ostriakov after he stole cheese and sausages worth €4.07 (£3; $4.50) from a supermarket.

Mr Ostriakov, a homeless man of Ukrainian background, had taken the food “in the face of the immediate and essential need for nourishment”, the court of cassation decided.

Therefore it was not a crime, it said.

In 2015, Mr Ostriakov was convicted of theft and sentenced to six months in jail and a €100 fine.

However, his case was sent to appeal on the grounds that the conviction should be reduced to attempted theft and the sentence cut, as Mr Ostriakov had not left the shop premises when he was caught.

Italy’s Supreme Court of Cassation, which reviews only the application of the law and not the facts of the case, on Monday made a final and definitive ruling overturning the conviction entirely.

“The condition of the defendant and the circumstances in which the seizure of merchandise took place prove that he took possession of that small amount of food in the face of an immediate and essential need for nourishment, acting therefore in a state of necessity,” wrote the court.

Given that theft is no longer a crime, I expect an enormous outbreak of theft from Italian grocery stores.

"Given that theft is no longer a crime, I expect an enormous outbreak of theft from Italian grocery stores.

Over the course of a week I have my round of beggars that I give my Euros to. I can afford it to give them a regular income.
And I am thanked by ... merci Monsieur.
Never was thanked by the dozens of "friends" that I have helped financially throughout my life.
They would prefer ignoring/killing me.
I ashamed them.
Gold and silver. Shame and pride or vv maybe ?
...
Love me , hate me but don't ignore me ...
Feeling better now after the burp.
Continuously thinking about ... gold. Trying to find a definition/description that would end all blablablah
of price and value.
... and what always jumps to mind is 'the tower of Babel". What does this tower have to do with gold ?
Everybody understood each other. They all had showed their holdings of gold to each other !!!
Gold is not a lie.
And what about silver then ?
-got too much by the way.
Just waiting for the miracle to happen that it will be recognized by... whom ???
To buy back the farm that I sold a few years ago to buy silver.
The Indians you idiot.
And you effers think that ...
And then one day I wake up. The world is eff.ed but silver is valued at 1 oz... 200 Big Macs
And everybody readily accepts it as ... a new world we are living in. Silver ! oh my gold.

What percentage of Americans are crooks ? Making a living and contributing to GDP ?
"What you have in your pocket I want to see in mine !" ???
Let's start with the banks. LOL.
Investment advise from newsletters. "How to get rich ?" 49$/yr
Sorry this was just a burp.
"heling"=dutch and is translated by Google as=fencing. ???
Selling stolen goods I want to find.
The Dutch/English dictionary translated it as "receiving".
Anyway , what I want to claim is that anybody using the US$ is a thief.

Actually, I find the "attempted theft" definition odd. Wouldn't pretty much all cases which make it to court be classified as "attempted theft"?

If they got away with it, then there's no case because the criminal can't be charged. But if they're caught, it's attempted, right?
