Trailer Thief Caught On Camera!!!!

In Oakland the cops take a half hour to show for armed robbery.

Alan did it right.

As the guy was on parole he is fucked. If it were his first offense he might walk, unless there is some overwhelming evidence he would get the universal treatment:"If you cop to a lesser offense, you will walk out of jail today." That's how our system works. The only guys who get reamed are the habitual offenders.

The reason not to post pics is not just the prosecution, it is to avoid a civil lawsuit if the guy slips through the cracks. Though in this case it sounds like his crak is going to get slipped through.
 
I'm just glad it wasn't a mexican...cause then we wouldn't have heard the end of it! :laughing :twofinger

photos are the way to go. :teeth
 
Let's just hope its his 3 rd strike. One more A hole off the streets.
 
Alan you did everything right. You got the evidence and used surprise to scare the thief away rather than risk confrontation. He owes you a new lock, but I'm sure you owe him a new pair of underwear :laughing

Please post updates as you receive them from the D.A.

Sounds like a good ADW charge to go along with the attempted burglary. Should hopefully be enough, enhanced by his parole violation, to put him away for a few. Good job on doing the smart thing, instead of the first thing that would come to most peoples mind.

It depends how badly the DA wants to go after this guy. In addition to burglary, he could also be charged with reckless driving, vandalism and loitering. It just depends on how much motivation the DA has.

I don't see this case going to trial. The perp will submit to some sort of plea deal.
 
The only plea I'd like to hear is this guy begging and crying for Bubba not to assrape him. I hope he feels like he's been fucked by a train.

An 8 inch penalty should be the way to go here, eh?

No lube either.
 
:applause

I thought this was another Youtube thread..:teeth

and then I find.. it is the real deal and Alan was the man! :Port

Props to you Alan!

That is a sweet deal for the community in general.
Another one off the streets..

:smoking

Good job Alan. Just post over the pics "All suspects are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law" Just like cops.
But on the serious note, wait until the officer says it’s ok. If there are more victims out there and they see the pics here before being show a photo line-up their independent recollection could be called in to jeopardy. The last thing you want to do is give a defense lawyer any ammo to get this guy off. :mad

I don't think he needs to bother with the alleged or "innocent until proven guilty" disclaimers. In order to be sued for libel (printing damaging false statements about other people), senor douchebag would have to prove that Alan knew his statements were false or acted with a reckless disregard for the truth. Given the photo evidence, that's highly unlikely. But of course, the CYA approach never hurts.

As for the tainted ID thing, that's a good point.

Edit: I forgot to say, nice job on the catching the bastard! Bike thieves belong in a special hell with child molesters and people who talk at the theater.

He was just about to cut the lock on the trailer door when I caught him.
