Have an identical twin to confuse the cops!

Malaysian twins spared death row

Malaysian identical twin brothers have escaped hanging for drug trafficking as a court failed to decide which brother was the criminal, and cleared both.

A judge in the capital, Kuala Lumpur, said the case was unique and she could not send the wrong person to his death.

In 2003 police arrested one brother found driving drugs to a house. The second twin arrived soon afterwards and was also arrested.

Neither officers nor a DNA test could identify which twin owned the drugs.

Sathis and Sabarish Raj, 27, cried in court when they heard the judge say that the prosecution had failed to prove which twin had been arrested first with a car containing 166kg of cannabis and almost 2kg of raw opium.

According to the New Straits Times, the judge told the court: "I can't be calling the wrong twin to enter his defence. I can't be sending the wrong person to the gallows."

Execution is mandatory for convicted drugs traffickers in Malaysia.
Now that's a pretty good way of dodging execution!

I thought even identical twins have some slight differences in their DNA?

They're made when an egg is fertilised by sperm, and then the egg mitoses as normal, but the seperate cells do not join again, and they create two seperate children. Both with exactly the same DNA, features, etc. The only differences occur between identical twins are environmental.

You might also note that identical twins can never be male/female.

Because if the sperm is a XX then the egg is always an XX so when the cross is made no XY can be made, so no boy. If the sperm is an XY then it crosses with the egg which is XX, so if a boy is produced, and it splits, then both the featuses will have XY, because the origional egg fertlisation was XY.

Death penalty is retarded due to miscarriages of justices

Go watch the film "Let Him Have It" (about the last person to be hanged in England) and then tell me that the death penalty is awsm

Hence environmental. Very similar, but only slight differences as they get erroded by touching things.
