Jeff



I have never met you and haven't heard of you, but I do know EXACTLY how you feel. About a year and half ago my house was broke into and trashed! In fact it happened on TWO separate occasions within a summer!! The FIRST time most of my gun collection was stolen.. And the next time my house was just destroyed. I did have my guns insured so my insurance company paid for most of that loss. Coming home and seeing everything destroyed and a mess. Luckily these guys didn't know about the value of snakes. Anyways the second time my neighbor seen some kids break in my house and called the police. They were caught! I was at work at the time and the police called me and I came right home to see the kids that broke in. Get this though, and this our legal system.. There were three kids all under 18. One of them ( the one with the longest rap sheet), Was sent Juvenile hall until he is 18. The second kid was ordered to pay my $585.00, and the third kid NOTHING! Now these kids did about $7500.00 damage. I wasn't going to turn it in to my insurance but they were notified and the claim was put on hold. The other day I get a check in the mail from the courts for $75.00 I figured it was a payment on the $585.00 But with the check there is a letter signed by the judge stating this is all I would be receiving and they WOULDN'T tell me why. Needless to say I did turn the damages in to my home owners and my rates naturally will go up. I guess the point I am trying to get across here is that I HOPE TO GOD that the readers of this forum and the people that you know will be able to catch this BASTARD, because I have no faith in the police or our legal system. Please keep us informed on this..



By the way I myself have a TON of very high dollar animals myself that I am working with and if I have a successful year give me a call and I will do anything I can to help you get back on your feet..
