What is the parrot being charged with, exactly? It is not illegal to warn someone that police are nearby, much as I'm sure they would like it to be.

- gmiller123456 8y agoWhile you are technically correct, in this particular case, the warning was to aid someone in committing a crime. And aiding someone in committing a crime is illegal in itself.
- ocdtrekkie 8y agoIndeed. Driving a getaway car is a crime, even if arguably, you claimed you just picked up your friend outside a bank to drive him home. And perhaps he paid you for your trouble. Though arguably, it's the intent there that matters, not the act. (If your friend called you for a ride home from a bank and you didn't know he robbed it, it wouldn't be a crime to do so.) Was the parrot aware it was aiding a criminal act?
- moate 8y ago1- They're not charging the bird with anything. 2- They were trying to see if the bird would randomly spit out more clues on the owner (imagine the bird repeating "Call sally, call sally"). 3- I'm sure the bird has Charlie Kelly on retainer, and personally respect him for not being a stool pigeon.
