New Zealand has a law against showing photos of juveniles wanted for crimes. So what do you do when you need to warn people about a 16-year-old wanted for a series of burglaries? Judging by the "wanted poster" below, you use a picture of a 58-year old, overweight Scottish actor who some cop thinks has a passing resemblance to said ne'er-do-well. Now, Robbie does have a son. Assuming he looks like dear old dad, I hope he won't be in Christchurch any time soon, or he could end up in the Kiwi hoosegow. Hang on ... okay, I just Googled "kiwi hoosegow," and I am in fact the first person to use that phrase. I'm all about blazing linguistic trails.
