Punter Shop Pilferer Put In Pokey By Poo On Shoe -- SYDNEY (Reuters) - A glob of dog excrement on a Queensland robber's shoe has been used as evidence to identify him, landing him with a 10-year stretch for a betting shop hold-up on Australia's Gold Coast.  Police said Thursday they had used enhanced photos from a security camera to match the pattern of excrement found at the crime scene to that on 26-year-old Jacob Smith's shoe.  "It's not rocket science. It's as plain as poo on your shoe," police sergeant Alan Piper, a veteran scientific officer, was quoted by local media as saying.  "It could have been one of a thousand or ten thousand shoes, but because that poo was there it was creating a great big feature that allowed us to go to a positive identification."  "I'd say there has been some more poo on the shoe but it has worn away," said Piper, who admitted to also doing a smell test.  Smith, who had wrapped a sheet around his face to hide his identity during the heist, was jailed in June for 10 years and 10 months on charges of robbery, being armed and in company and unlawful use of a motor vehicle.


Poo(p) Gets In Your Treads by katlaughing
(Tune: Smoke Gets In Your Eyes)

I asked them how they knew that that poo was my true poo
They of course replied "some treadmarks can't be denied"
They said "someday you'll find only you stepped in poo not-dried
When you robbed the store, you must realize the aroma got in our noses."
So I blushed and hung my head in shame to think that my dog's movement caught me out
So today I sit and curse at when the poop got in my treads.

Now laughing "cons" deride tears I cannot hide
So I smile and say "when a pile of poo steams, don't step in it 'cause you'll get caught like me,
when poop gets in your treads!"

(poop gets in your treads, poop gets in your treads)

Poop gets in your TREADS
