One home was purchased for 248K back in April. Wonder if they made their money back yet.

2 of the new houses were customized just to grow in…that would cost a lot of cash by itself…

They’ll book and release them tonite…they’ll go dig up their emergency cash and be long gone…

And where exactly did they get the Police and Fed Agent clothing and radios? From robberies and home Invasions, no doubt…

Wonder if there’s any connection to the MacTown Boyz gang here…You actually can’t tell by the girl Haley’s facebook page…

Do the stores and online retailers of uniforms really take the time to verify if the customer is actually enjoyed by an agency? Highly doubt it. Plus these folks would havta rob someone that wears same size.
And sometimes Halloween costumes look just real enough.

When it comes to security guard clothing and other clothing items they possessed, the rules are very lax.
Great clothing to wear in a ruse, to rip off pot.

the clothing?? walk into ANY police supply or gunshop and buy off the rack OR order from galcos or 511tactical.. on the net.. ballistic vests?? same sources..ie you should at least resemble a security guard and be familiar with the terminology…

make sure no agency names/patches are on same nor should you try for fake badges.. security/police that WILL get charges leveled..
but plain uniforms with no insignia?? no problem.. and when meeting with LEOs tends to calm them 🙂
ie some call it a 511 tuxedo 🙂

and I recommend against trying to rob a cop/security type… they are like wrestling with a pig in mud.. ie they train for exactly this and hope some idiot will try..

a random security type

Two military type helicopters just came roaring over Alderpoint pretty low heading north in a big hurry. All green, a slightly lighter green than usual military green. 🚁
