Man serving home detention opts for prison over Xbox

4.5
If crime were punishable with 11 months of solid video game downtime, this world would be chaos.

One New Zealand offender begs to differ, though: according to a report in the New Zealand Herald, a 19-year-old has opted to go to prison rather than spend the last month of his home detention term playing Xbox.
According to the report, the offender was "sick of playing Xbox" and "had run out of Xbox games to play." To combat the horror of replaying video games, he'll spend the final month of his detention term behind bars.

He even admitted that if police didn't jail him, he was at risk of breaching his home detention terms.

Yin So, you have a choice of staying at home and not play Xbox or going to prison and can't play Xbox. This guy chose to not have a choice and go to prison where other bad things could happen. I don't care how bored I am, there is no way I'd pick any prison over home. That's crazy, but good luck to him I guess.


Agreed, I cannot see why someone would choose prison over a life of luxury playing games, other people have to worry about school, or work, he could have had neither, but then did his house arrest stipulate that he cannot connect to the internet? I think that would get boring after a while.
