Speaking of thieves...

[cskiles]

I had a crew in Durham, NC two weeks ago. they were staying at a Hampton Inn. The night they stayed there, someone broke into our new company truck (broke the dark tinted camper side window out). They stole just over $5,000.00 worth of HILTI power tools, i.e., two band saws, multiple drills, impacts, heavy duty hammer drills, batteries and an electric powder actuated nail gun. The employee that had them stolen (a good friend of mine) has been beyond pissed about it) he has been trolling the classified ads and FB Marketplace and ALL of the tools showed up for sale tonight on FB Marketplace...every tool and battery that was stolen is on this jackasses advertisement - still with the initials on the tools. I've contacted the Sheriff that took the call (left a voice-mail) but I have about half-a-mind to drive to Durham and set up a purchase just so I can show this individual how the tools work- up close and personal! Nothing pisses me off more than a thief or a liar, I don't necessarily believe in karma but I do think that you get what you give! I hope his unit rots off!!!

Rant over...

Keep us posted. Really hope the perp ends up doing hard time. Grand theft can be deterred with grand prison time.

My attorney has advised me that I have no official opinion on this excellent post.

Just spoke to the officer, he said "the investigator will get back with you in the next day or two" I told him they'd be gone in that time frame since the jackass is selling them for about 25% of what they're worth. I'm sure it's just some crackhead methin' around.

Officer said that the theft rate had increased 250% in the past year! Sounds like a great place to live...SMDH

In 2 weeks, the thief could've offloaded the stolen goods on somebody who thought he was getting in extraordinary good deal, and wants to flip them on Facebook for a quick profit.

The seller might not be the thief.

Many thieves try to fence their stolen goods within hours, so they can get money for drugs, beer, cigarettes, dip, or whatever else they're addicted to.

NC decriminalized most felony thefts a few years back.
NC has went to crap in the larger cities, although there are signs they are waking up, probably too little and too late.

Asheville has turned into a violent city. 75% of the police force has quit, and the violent crime rate has increased something like 400%.
The jewel of these parts, and really quite a shame.
