It's something we run into on occasion in criminal law (though nothing quite so extreme as this guy).

Someone who is committing a fairly minor or nuisance offence, but absolutely refuses to stop.  The more typical example is the hardened alcoholic who is continuously picked up for being drunk in public, causing a disturbance, and the like, but continuously re-offends immediately on release.

What can you do other than keep handing out increasingly lengthy prison sentences?

Is this a rhetorical question? Because I can think of at least 10 better things to do about him than that.

I'm all ears.

Thinking of all the ways you could use a naked man is not what BB is talking about.
