From CBS-Sacramento:

Local Comic Book Store Owner Shows Creative Compassion Towards Teenage Thieves
QuoteThis is the story of crime and punishment; forgiving but not forgetting; creativity and compassion.

And this is the author of this tale: a comic book store owner involved in a real-life caper. Back in December someone stole Dave Downey's classic Flintstone car from right in front of his store. Three teenagers took it, threw it in the back of a pickup and drove off. A few days later, they were caught and car was returned.

Thinking they made their bedrock and must now sleep in it, the teens thought they were off to jail on theft charges.

But wait.

What was their reaction when Downey said he had an idea?
