A GIANT chocolate frog has been charged with receiving an Aboriginal boy allegedly stolen from a supermarket in regional Western Australia. Wildlife experts say the delicious frog has no prior convictions.
Freddo been charged with receiving the boy, allegedly stolen by his friend, Perth racing identity Kevin ‘Caramello’ Koala, and faces a second charge involving the receipt of a 1kg bag of insects stolen from a fishing supplies store.
The frog will face Northam Amphibian Court, about 100km from Perth, on Monday.
His lawyer, Amphibian Legal Service chief Jeremy Fisher, has asked police to withdraw the charges but has not received a response.
"It's scandalous that a frog should be subject to prosecution for a case of this type," he croaked.
Mr Fisher said Freddo had missed an earlier court date because of a family misunderstanding and was apprehended and locked in a cell devoid of both water and lily pads for several hours.
A WA police spokesman said it's appropriate to have the court deal with the frog, because police have been forced to speak to him about other matters previously.

Thanks for your comment over at Daily Quail, it made me laugh very hard sir and although interweb stalkers are to cared to meet me in person, it certainly struck a chord.
Cheers.
Never underestimate a sociopath, they find it offensive.
