The following is a copy of a craigslist posting....

On 7/23/2013 at aprox. 1 PM a ladder was taken by a thief driving a small black pickup truck. The thief was wearing a tan ball cap hat, a teal green tee shirt and light colored plaid shorts and sandals for shoes. The truck looked like an older Nissan. I have a reward for the person who turns this nice fellow in to the police. BUT it has to be the right guy. Someone out there knows this jerk. I will post pictures of him. Oh did I mention that I have video footage of him? I was in the middle of setting up the cameras, which he looked right into! That is why the ladder was there in the first place. He is a slob,  a thief and an idiot to boot.  I know people will steal you blind if you let them and I would not have left the ladder out except I had a friend that was admitted into the hospital so I dropped everything and went to see about him. If you have information you can contact the sheriffs' office and report him. If its the right guy I will cross your palm with silver! You wont be disappointed.  Pics will be posted soon and video will be given to the police and placed on social media sites. BUT, if you are the guy and want to avoid potential embarrassment or other consequences please return the ladder to the house you stole it from. Bringing it back within 24 hours and I will allow you to chose weather I give the video to the police or place it on social media sites. Leave a note on the ladder to tell me which. After that all bets are off and you might as well drink the 6 pack that scraping the ladder would pay for cause I am gonna have some fun!

I think that people who steal should always be labeled and outed in public. Once a thief always a thief. I was amazed to find that there are many postings of stolen property on the "C" list. I hope the people who lost cars, work trucks and other items get them back. A ladder does not seem like much but I guess a thief will take anything not tied down. In the mean time it might be cool to put up security cameras and then put the faces of these criminals on the web. Better yet video if you can get it. I have lost things in the past and I know where I left them.  Then they are just gone. you start to look for them but you know it was right there. I hope this guy gets his ladder back but I sort of hope he puts the thief's face on facebook.

Do you and this gentleman normally steal each other's bikes, or was this just a random occurrence?

We have become a nation of thieves.... from the highest politician to the lowest peasant, and all in between.  There are a few honest people left, but they will soon die off, leaving us with the product of our corrupt system, run by, and populated by, thieves.  Our only hope is to become thieves too, so the transfer of goods and funds by thievery becomes a race to see who can steal the most, the fastest. 

It's to become the new economic system of thievery, designed to utilize the natural bent within all humans, which is to take what others have without the slightest regret or bother.

Perhaps one factor causing so many of our friends and relatives to become thieves is because of the examples set by most of our politicians and powerful moneyed elites ...  as we are becoming aware that they engage in thievery every day.  Thievery is normal for these experts, as they can hide it within the approved banking and business practices, as set and approved by their political cronies.

To be honest, is to be odd.

Let one of the gods be with you.  Peace on you. ;)

Please share the details. From your residence. Remember an MJ'er had one taken at the skyway. Glad you got it back.

That was my husband. I want to know how you found this guy too. My husband had a relatively unique bike and it is still a sore subject for him. Should I set up a stakeout?

ShAdCo reveals that our sector has experienced at LEAST
57 burglaries (no one home or at the place of business)
and OVER 37 robberies (personal and or violent crime)
WITHIN THE PAST MONTH

These numbers do not include Street Robberies!

Murray Hill and Lake Shore directly south have been hit very hard.

The common elements are the thieves are entering through the rear, taking one of your pillowcases, your jewelry and laptop.

Police Officers have deployed the manpower available for increased patrols and now when a call goes out squad cars roll in very quickly and quietly - often times additional officers roll up just because they so badly want to catch more of these jackasses after having collected more evidence from a few of the crime scenes which led to 4 arrests so far.

DO NOT HESITATE TO CALL IN ANYTHING OUT OF THE ORDINARY!
IF you KNOW your neighbors, and you are pretty sure they are not home, and you see an adult walk away from their yard with a backpack, at Least get a good memorable description.

I have followed from a safe distance in a car while on a line with JSO  and watched the idiot get taken into custody.
Having a completely random schedule allows me that joy.  Also not having a TV and keeping my laptop with me everywhere I go, AND being armed well helps.

Stay vigilant!
People are largely becoming more and more desperate.

What Zone (JSO speak for area) are you referring to, ricker?

ricker

at the Annual Meeting held last month at FBC, Sheriff Rutherford revealed those numbers applicable to zone four sector J 2.
thank you for asking and please pardon my earlier omission.

ricker - If you have a smartphone, join Nextdoor, the neighborhood app, we are all posting what we see. There was another breakin along Post Street yesterday.

Some kids broke into a house at Dellwood and Nelson earlier this week, they were seen rolling a garbage can down the road with the items they took. So if you see kids rolling a garbage can down the road, they are not simply moving trash from one neighborhood to another, they are indeed moving their goods from one house to another, call the police.

The breakins have been in Riverside and Avondale as well as Ortega, the thieves knock on the door, look for dogs, and if none there, they kick in the door and grab what they can in the 30-60 seconds and then are gone. Alarm system does nothing. We all need to look at a DVR and a good camera to cover the side door/driveways, and if it happens, you have something good to send to the cops. JSO can only do so much, patrols are nice, but the crooks come back. Add a camera and let the neighborhood know you have them on camera.
And, that $115 will save Jacksonville from financial ruin. - Mayor John Peyton

Fishweir and Ortega Forest areas have been hit hard by burglars over the past month also.  'Tis the Season.
When all else fails hug the dog.
