The Doughnut Caper
Well, I guess some person (or persons) figured out that cops like sweets, and that if you like sweets too you can score a few doughnuts if you get to the courthouse before the cops do. This might be a crime easily discouraged if, instead of stacking those flashy pink boxes, they left empty boxes in the usual place and then hid the doughnuts in a carton marked "Tax Forms" (or something equally distasteful). Or maybe the deputies could stage a stake-out with the pink boxes in full fiew. To obtain real job satisfaction they could sit back and wait for the crooks to dive in and start chowing down on those fresh treats. Then the deputies could step out and wiggle a frosty milk carton at the sticky-fingered thieves.
You just can't beat the drama of true crime.
