Thief is who steals or steals . It is, therefore, a person that offend, since stealing and stealing are crimes punished by the law . The crime of Stole it consists of seizing other people's things from the use of violence or intimidation, while theft also involves taking other people's things, but without the participation of force or confrontation, but silently and while the owners are not directly In the scene.
For example: "The police caught a thief who had stolen in three houses in the neighborhood", "The victim persecuted the thieves for several meters, until he lost sight of them", "My son may be unruly and mischievous, but he is not a thief".
The pain that the law imposes on the thief for his criminal actions depends on his characteristics. When comparing different cases, we can see that the seriousness of the facts can be very different.
Let's look at three cases in which the penalties would be remarkably different: a person who takes advantage of the distraction of a passenger at a train station and, quietly, removes the handbag, which was resting on the suitcase; a thief who, in a semi-deserted and dark street, threatens a passerby to shoot him if he does not hand over his wallet and any valuable belongings he carries with him; three individuals who enter armed in a store and steal the box and the most expensive items, after which they shoot the clerks and leave.
In each of the examples there are subjects who commit similar crimes, and each of them can be called a thief. However, whoever steals a purse will receive the lesser penalty. The man in the alley that appeals to the intimidation will receive the intermediate punishment while the maximum penalty it will fall on the armed group that injures the dependents.
There are currently several concepts related to thefts carried out through Internet, and one of the most prominent is the Identity Theft, which consists of a thief posing as another person, with the purpose of using their credit cards, accessing their bank accounts and damaging them in other ways, depending on the case and the relationship between them.
Although the figure The thief is usually despised and repudiated by society, given the material, physical and psychological damage that can be caused to his victims, certain robberies acquire a magnitude that makes them authentic urban legends, which transcend time and space, to be repeated for years and, why not, exaggerated and distorted to the taste of those who relate them. One of them is known as "The escape of El Dioni".
Dionisio Rodríguez Martín, known as The Dioni, is currently a public figure in Spain, which appears in various programs of questionable content and morals included in the group of heart journalism. However, in July 1989 he became a thief by taking the decision to escape with an armored van of the company Candi S.A., which contained about 300 million pesetas.
With the loot, the thief made sure to change his appearance and traveled to Brazil, where he stayed for two months, until the local police arrested him and sentenced him to ten months in jail. Finally, El Dioni was extradited to Spain, where he spent about six years in prison, before receiving the freedom conditional. Only a little more than half of the money could be recovered and the company that owns the van, and former employer of Dionisio Rodríguez Martín, declared bankruptcy.
