Store surveillance tape shows a guy walking in, stashing a radio under his jacket, and walking out. He comes back in and does the exact same thing four more times. Nobody notices at first, but he gets caught on the fifth try. Security discovers the first four instances while reviewing security footage while waiting for the cops. Cops arrive, search the guy's car, but can't find the other four radios. How many counts of shoplifting does he get charged with when the cops drag him off to the station? 5 counts, because their is circumstantial video evidence, even if they could only find one of the five radios. Proof of the download now usually works the same way as that surveillance video, thanks to a lot of recent kiddie porn cases, where "someone else must have downloaded it on my computer" didn't work as an excuse.</p></blockquote><p></p>
