Fun storytelling! Gave me some chuckles. I'm also a federal offender. I think I was 9 or 10 and another kid and I went around stealing mail at an apartment complex where we lived. I think we were looking for checks because obviously we had no idea about how any of that worked but we thought we could get free money or something. We were caught red-handed, and I'll never forget a cop telling us it was a "federal offense." That sounded bad. We cried, and they let us off with a warning. My parents never found out.
