[QUOTE="redcowsrule33, post: 857610, member: 8629"] This summer we caught 2 fine upstanding individuals loading up their truck with any metal that wasn't bolted down. They had broken into a garage, had a bunch of material in the vehicle. The vehicle was unregistered w/expired plates. One had no license the other was suspended and on parole. Called the sheriff for burglary in progress. 4 showed up in 15 minutes. What did they do?? Zero. Said all they could do was trespass. Couldn't prove that either of them drove the vehicle (apparently they pushed it there) or that they intended to steal any of the property they had put in the vehicle as they hadn't left with it. Didn't see them in the locked building so no break in. We couldn't even tow the truck away as they said the bungholes could sue us for any damages, had to wait for them to call someone else to chauffer them off in the truck, which then could not be stopped once they hit the highway for operating an unregistered vehicle as that was entrapment. So the cops stood there as they unloaded the truck and watched them drive off w/ a ticket for trespass. :mad: Who are we protecting? P.S. the stuff they were just admiring disappeared the next week.
