It's even worse when you consider how much Velma treats them like morons, like in Curse of The 13th Ghost, like... Y'ALL HAVE SEEN ACTUAL PARANORMAL SHIT, and even when they haven't, they encountered legitimate psychopaths literally trying to kill them. Even if you discount all the actual paranormal crap that's happened to them, they probably still have PTSD from the amount of psychos that have tried to hurt them, whether trying to scare away, kidnap or kill them. They have good reason to be scared, even if you put aside all the weird bullshit they've gotten into.

I feel like Professor Pericles at this point can be charged with war crimes or even crimes against humanity. This freaking parrot killed multiple people in cold blood, engineered bioweapons, and fused himself with an Eldritch horror!

[@ripdalt]

if anyone should get war crimes, it's pericles 100%

[@thecursed_1lordofcats738]

I would certainly say Pericles' pursuit of the Entity and the actions performed in said pursuit would hundred percent count as war crimes. Hell, the flesh eating cows could count as bioweapons, already violating the Geneva Convention, as would gunning down Marcie (killing a non-combatant). The love potion from the Aphrodite episode would also count for chemical warfare, and it was the bird who came up with the formula for it.

As for the death sentences, I think that's just a difference in researching crimes that are eligible for the death penalty. and the fine... I mean, does Pericles even have or care about money?

Alright... So, according to my own calculations, if we were to say that: A.) None of the imprisoned are over 50 years old (with some "wiggle room") B.) They all live natural, healthy lives where they get to live until they're about 100 years old C.) There's no chance of parole D.) We don't count their crimes outside of the episode (like the father/daughter supervillain duo) E.) They all count as alive (mostly referring to Danny who dies and Fernando who was already dead) ... Then the final total for the amount of individuals that would live long enough to completely serve their sentence and get out of jail is: 24. Excluding the ones who didn't get any time at all, the shortest sentence was Danny with 3 years, which makes it more sad that he died when he would have (technically) gotten off the easiest. Also, I'm a little sad that you didn't count up the gang's own total at the end. It would have been funny just how many years they would have gotten from trespassing alone.

Excuse me, but I think Pericles' sentence should be higher. In the Horrible Herd, Mr. E talks to Pericles about the eponymous herd. In this conversation, E mentions that 29 of his scientists are listed under “presumed missing”, and judging by how one of their screams are heard, I believe the implication is that they were victims of the Horrible Herd, who’s crimes are attributed to Pericles. Maybe there’s something I don’t know about, but I think we should add a couple 29 life sentences to the total. Edit: I don’t know if you had already accounted for this, but in All Fear The Freak, it’s implied that Pericles murders Ed Machine to send a message to Mr. E. So that’s another life sentence, but I’m unsure if you didn’t notice it, or did but didn’t mention it.

The finale hints that Professor Pericles only became evil because of the evil entity influencing his mind, so I can't agree with calling him the most evil character in animation because he didn't actually have agency.

[@ripdalt]

that's fair. i'm still giving it to him though lmao :)

thank you! :)

Can we throw onto Professor P's sentence a few more life sentences for the 29 scientists that Mr. E implies were eaten by the Skull Cows?

[@ripdalt]

that's probably fair, lmao

Pericles is more dangerous than the evil entity itself

yeah i would probably agree, evil entity is just selfish

Danny (S1EP17) is actually getting a LOT longer time in prison, as it's actually illegal to booby trap your house with deadly traps in most states, and at all in others. Katko v. Briney had the homeowners held liable for the damages caused to the trespasser, because it was malicious intent. In Texas, where I live: Sec. "9.44. USE OF DEVICE TO PROTECT PROPERTY. The justification afforded by Sections 9.41 and 9.43 applies to the use of a device to protect land or tangible, movable property if: (1) the device is NOT designed to cause, or known by the actor to create a substantial risk of causing, death or serious bodily injury; and use of the device is REASONABLE under all the circumstances as the actor reasonably believes them to be when he installs the device." (all caps added by me for emphasis) Basically: You can't have something designed to kill. You can't have something designed to seriously injure. and those traps were lethal as hell. I've always imagined Scooby Doo as more of a New England setting, and I imagine some of those states are a bit more strict.

[@ripdalt]

oooh you brought out the precedent setting case, alright! fair enough, he probably would've gotten a bit more, if he didn't perish

[@The.Stalker]

Of course! That's why it's not a huge deal. A lot of people I've come across don't know about booby trap laws.

I find it funny how the lady who actually controlled an entire town got a significantly lower sentence than a child who pretended to control an entire town.

9:15 Marion is one of the few, if not only, culprit who technically got away with her crimes. Her husband decided not to press any charges from her actions, as he understood why she did it, and he ultimately agreed to retire.

Practically every one of them would get life or the death penalty, but given how often they just get chucked in Arkham Asylum Gotham must be very willing to believe insanity pleas.

@@CantusTropus It's not just criminally insane sorts. Black Mask is usually portrayed as being a regular at Blackgate rather than Arkham, and he would have gotten the death penalty way back if the justice system in Gotham wasn't so corrupt. For the right price, everything is legal in New Jersey.

I honestly would've figured that Pericles would've been executed for his crimes, especially since he would be classified as a terrorist with a standing army. Also, because. I am at least 93% sure he had ties to the Nazi psrty.

[@Universeofmany]

If you ever feel like dipping your toes in other kid detective series for legal analysis, I recommend "Famous Five: On the Case", a single season of 26 episodes that's a sequel to the Famous Five books, centering on the children of the original Kirrin cousins (Julian, Dick, Anne and George) solving mysteries with loyal canine companion Timmy, just as their parents once did. Only warning is that most of the episodes take place in the UK so it might require more research on legal matters to figure out how to sentence the various culprits. Also would be fun to see you do the Ron Roy Mysteries" verse, consisting of "A to Z", "Capital" and "Calendar" (all series titles include "Mysteries" after the listed portion).

[@ripdalt]

i won't count it out 100%, but i only started this series because i genuinely love these shows. but you never know, i might love those ones enough for a vid too!

[@Skylerjones624]

Mystery Incorporated really was different to other Scooby Doo shows definitely more teen to even adult targeted, watching it now as an adult villians really were trying to murder people (Including the gang)

[@ripdalt]

i agree 100%, and that's why it holds up to this day too

[@KingTyranitar-mg1jk]

prof percaclese is like life sentence not even child’s play

he'd still find a way to break out anyways

[@belladonna1950]

I personly don't think it was the gators who stole the mystery machine engine. The gators wanted them gone so taking a important part that allows the van to work would not make sense. I feel like it was mr.E because he was the one who sent them to the town and he would want them to stay in the town to solve the mystery.

[@ripdalt]

yes, i believe i wrongly attributed that to them

[@williamts9422]

ok but now you gotta do all the movies and Be Cool, Scooby Doo

[@grover7378]

the gator family didn't steal the mystery machines engine its highly implied the Mr E stole it somehow as it returns with his mark after the mystery is solved so there actual sentence should be 71 years.

[@ripdalt]

yeah i think i wrongly attributed that one to them
