Suddenly occurs to me that Scooby and the gang have to show up in court for every villain they capture.

[Maswartz]

Stuff like this is why Shaggy and Scooby are totally justified for running from them. Like sure they're not actual supernatural monsters but they're still trying to kill them!

[joebykaeby]

The craziest thing about this is actually how few episodes of this show there were. When I was a kid it felt like you could watch Scooby-Doo for the rest of your life without ever seeing the same episode over again.

I don't know what surprises me more: That stealing boats got more jailtime than stealing people or that Where Are You? only has 25 episodes.

I think Harry the hypnotist would also get some SA charges since he hypnotized Daphne and made her change clothing without clear consent.

Fun Fact: Mr. Wickles reappeared as a minor villain in Scooby Doo 2: Monsters Unleashed, which came out in 2004, more or less 35 years after he was unmasked in the cartoon.

[wesleyeversole]

It’s fitting that Mr. Wickles would have gotten 35 years since that means he would have gotten the same year that “Monsters Unleashed” (which he appears in) was released.

Keep in mind that Captain Cutler didn't just lock the gang in a normal room, he locked them inside a completely flooded room inside a shipwreck on the sea floor. They also had a limited supply of oxygen, and those tanks would run out eventually. Thay definitely counts as an attempted murder in my opinion.

Another thing to note: In some states, dogs are legally considered livestock and thus afforded the same protections. Stealing a dog is going to run someone just as much as stealing a cow or horse.

Imagine sharing a conversation with a fellow life sentence prisoner and you're like

"Yeah I dressed like a spooky ghost but got busted by some kids and a dog"

You'd be the laughing stock of the prison

[turtleturtle]

I love hearing the backstory of some of these villains, because you hear something like "Dressed up as a chinese wardlord for an international smuggling ring" and you have to ask, was the costume really necessary for this?

[alpyki]

Lesson here is to only try to scare people away as a last resort from clearly abandoned locales. Had most of these people just laid low once Scooby-Doo and the gang started to investigate, they'd just move on to another mystery.

Also perhaps do not tell them that the location is haunted in the first place? If I remember right half of these guys were the ones that clued the gang into the haunting shenannigans.

[WhiteRaven]

I never realized how much attempted murder and attempted manslaughter there was in the original show. 😅

[pepsiatlas]

yknow its never occurred to me how much genuine danger the mystery gang were constantly in

[ianmason]

You need to keep in mind that oftentimes charges are downgraded in the case of first-time offenders and sentences for crimes are sometimes served concurrently. These should be considered as the MAXIMUM sentences the Scooby-Doo villains could serve.

[xandercommand]

I like the implication from all the child endangerment charges that the gang just being around raises the potential jailtime considerably

[iamthemistake]

Now all we need is a video with a lawyer covering how these characters could get their cases handled.

[jackventure]

“Menacing”. I never realized dressing up as a monster and scaring people would fall under an actual law. I figured people like Minor 49’er who spooked people and bought the land didn’t actually commit any crime that would warrant arrest.

[prophetofpuppets]

The only thing I wonder is would they count Scooby-Doo as a person for the purposes of imprisonment or menacing? His legal rights is a roulette wheel.

[alexofmadness]

i would love to see one of these for the mystery incorporated series, where the crimes get even more intense.
