Someone should have looked at this & said "WHOA!, stop whats happening & consider a warning etc".

Just preparing a case for this will have cost loads more than the fish were worth.
There has to be some common sense used when prosecuting someone & there are other ways of dealing with such petty crimes.
A word from a police officer could have done in this case. Anyone know who the fish belonged to or why she had access? More to this than meets the eye?

Edit! I wrote meats.
