@CrimeADay tweets one federal crime a day, and most of them are weird

It's a federal crime:

  • to sell ketchup and call it something else
  • for a railroad to report that an employee was hurt playing racquetball
  • for a stage chicken to come back from performing in Canada without a health certificate
  • to import Chinese pig semen if the pig ate raw garbage in the collection period
  • to drive down the beach at the Cape Cod National seashore without a shovel in your car

The Twitter account @CrimeADay has been tweeting a federal crime every day for over three years. So far, they have tweeted 0.37% of the federal crimes on the books. Only 99.63% left to go.
