Aww damn buddy, this I can’t like and it hits close to home. Sorry I’m late to the party. Nothing I hate more than a thief. I hate liars but thief’s top them all. As a business owner, I got hit by theft multiple times this year and cost me well over $10k. And nobody gives a flying F. I’m in NY so it’s catch and release. No incentive for criminals to stop…unless I take control. Which then I’m the criminal and then they’ll punish me. Burns my ass. I actually camped out at the garage for a few night here and there but no luck. Me it’s “scrap”. I have a repair shop, dealership, etc. Got robbed of many catalytic converters. And I deal in selling converters so I’m very up on what the market is. I watch it everyday. I buy certain cars and take certain ones on trade for the sole intent of processing them for scrap. Cats, aluminum wheels, alternators, starters, calipers, etc. Then scrap weight on the carcass and maybe some easily shippable parts I can sell on the net. But honestly cats are the big $, then aluminum wheels. Showed up one day to many “loud” cars. Sure enough cats gone. O2 sensor missing, wires cut, etc. Problem is since I’m also in the salvage business, all my cats on parts cars have been sold or are safely stored waiting for the market. So they were stolen off cars for sale or to be repaired. I also had a stash of aluminum rims out back behind the fence robbed. Blows my mind. At least 50-60, still had tires on most of them. They just hit $25 a rim in scrap. Told my buddy lets break them down today and cash in. Walk out back they’re all gone…wtf. Then looked closer and noticed all the cats. Of course nobody wants to know anything. A few local frequent flyers have been caught multiple times out of pure stupidity. Like under a car with a Sawzall at a store in the middle of the day. But like I said they know there is no consequences. Usually home in time for dinner. I can tell you if I happen to catch them they will not be home in time for dinner. Deductions are handy and all but not this way. And, it’s just the principle. Was honestly ready to shut the doors a few months ago being so fed up with the crime, state, and bs. Sorry long post…rant over. I’m sorry @maulhead i feel your pain. Pure scum. And they wonder why us normal people go “crazy” :mad:

My Brother and I have the same problem County will hand out a DUI But the commissioners won't pay room and board for a Thief even When they are on video and lose their cell phone and you see them at 5 AM looking for It . Turn it over to the County Law and it gets lost. 3,000$ of cats and a busted side glass that time.

Morning/ Evening All. Too much rain. Over 4” was the final tally Monday and it’s been hammering down since 3am. Will be another multiple inch rainfall day and we have too much water already. I keep having to pump water out of the pool to keep it from over flowing.
