  • We all make mistakes, but for your own sake. Please stop stealing from me. I will catch you every time and you will personally help load my stuff back up. As for this case we’ve resolved the matter and I’d appreciate if everyone respects them as we all make mistakes. And dude… please take your wife out to dinner. She deserves it.

      Amen. Usually search warrants do not happen that fast. In busy south florida a cop wouldn't have done nothing without picture proof of everything. Hell my sister stole 30k from me and I told the cops what bank she put it in her safety deposit box, text saying sorry, and her finger prints everywhere and they said sue her its a civil matter.

      Yeah that is honestly how you want to see a situation like that be handled. Having been on the losing end of stolen property I worked hard for, and then being amazed at how bad I felt when it seemed like the cops didn't even seem to care or try to get it back, I think both parties did a stand up job. Cody was right about getting as much information you can. Also going to the place without starting confrontation and having the police come was perfect - might have gotten slept on if not.. cops did a great job aswell they could see they had what they needed to get the job done and they did. 👏 👌👍

Gross behavior from him, he should be ashamed and I'd watch my back with this kind of man as your neighbor. Pathetic behavior by this old man who 1000% knows WAY BETTER , the excuses are sadly not helping in anyway shape or form. Hot bs air. Glad you got your stuff back. And you took the high road in dealing with him, I'd press charges myself, it's illegal to steal and I think he needs some schooling. We learn the most when it costs us money. Should have taught him that lesson.

      Just need to give a shout out to the young rookie in Gonzales, TX many years ago. He was just a beeboppin' along when he sees a beat up, old, nasty truck come careening out of a side road and decided to a quick field check. Upon walking up to the truck, he noticed a couple thousand dollars worth of gas room heaters and hidden pile under a tarp. He began to casually chat the boy up and the boy was sweating profusely. So, he called the boy out to the back of the truck and while talking to him, noticed the butt of a rifle sticking out from under the tarp. He asked the boy to show him what was under the tarp and immediately detained him for suspicion of burglary. That quick thinking rookie recovered 6 stolen firearms, two expensive gas room heaters, a few thousand in cash from a drawer in my dad's study, and several thousand dollars worth of electronics. We now have three large safes in the walk in closet, where we keep firearms not currently being worn, the coin amd cash collection, and various other unmentionables. In addition to other security measures, we have posted two signs. The one at the gate off the caliche road says "trespassers will be shot, survivors will be shot again." The one way up the driveway at the yard gate says "if you can read this, you're in range." That was some damn good policing from that rookie.

      It might appear that way, that he's only sorry because he got caught, and common sense and experience might even tell us that is exactly what's happening. And that might be a correct assumption. But it's not hands down 100% the truth. You never know, the embarrassment alone might have kicked him in the teeth enough for him to start feeling actual guilt. Everyone has an image of themselves, and people like this, often lie to themselves about who they are, or why they do the things they do in an attempt to justify their actions, and a lot of the time they end up believing their own bullshit. So if he thought to himself "I'm usually a nice guy and I don't do shit like this, but times are tough and I gotta do what I gotta do." you never know what he was thinking when he was staring down the barrel of reality. Maybe he couldn't deny it any longer, that he was kind of a piece of shit.
      All of that being said, I'd only feel as sorry for him (if you were at all inclined to do so) as you could while keeping him at arms length.
