@Rikku *hugs* - So then would you then be partial in letting criminal shinigami go?
... after all ryuk did steal a book
@Cooly - Truth be told I think Ruk is dumb
... first up he's totally bored in the shinigami world so he flings a book down into the human world thinking it's fun, but he's got no prior info about the book except for the rules written there already (and the one time where he says that touching the book will allow others to see him...) and for heaven's sake the rules are...written there already!
It doesn't take a genius to figure it out...all you need is to be able to read and write... namely booksmart
..*mwahah!*... I thought Rem was wayy more intelligent than Ryuk
