[UPDATE: 5:46 p.m.: Located] Lost Phone: $25 Reward for Return

black phone

My son’s phone.

Soooo, I know it is a long shot but….my 14-year-old lost his phone on the campus of College of the Redwoods a week ago. It’s an HTC Desire® 526 in Stealth Black. Burned into the back in shaky letters is his name, Malachi, and his phone number. (No, I’m not posting the number. On the slim chance he does get his phone back, I don’t want some of the creepy folks who send me death threats, etc., to have access to him.)

$25 reward if you can get it back to me. My email is [email protected].

UPDATE 5:46 p.m: My son located his phone….in his backpack.

We will speak no more of this shame.

That is terrible to have to deal with that! Information is powerful and there are people who try to limit and control it by threatening the media. Thank you so much Kym for enduring those threats to get us information!

It doesn’t help that you are a government propaganda website and have held yourself out as a pot porn whore. Both are dangerous territory. Just sayin’.

Wow just the guy they were talking about, thanks for reminding us how crass and rude and ridiculous some people are and exactly the kind of thing that sometimes gets unjustly sent to kym.
You definitely proved your attitude towards women in your choice of words.
And you picked the wrong place to live if you dont like strong pot and even stronger independent fiery women.

Thats heavy, just so you know there’s a ton of people here and they are all on your side and ready at the drop of a hat to head over to kick any assailants butt for you!
People are jerks including myself but on the right side of the law and we are certainly not having you get that end of the stick. Ever! We appreciate You!

If someone found the phone I would have thought a call would have already been made. I have found two phones, one on the bus and another at Carson Park. Gave a call and phone was back in its rightful hands within hours. If someone is using it illegally it would have a ping record. You only need to check the billing online to find out.

Even if you are this cool about the threats, it certainly creates an ugly environment and so uselessly. If it helps, I do value your site as the only place I get info on things that matter to me. Thanks.

Called CR lost and found at 476-4112. They don’t have it. I’ll be on the lookout.

A nut case burned Bill Roddy’s house down on Christmas eve. Bill Roddy was the editor of Southern Humboldt Life and Times. Unfortunately, these kind of nuts {sociopaths) usually end up in charge of everything, like Kim Jong Un.

Your a better person than me as I would have never admitted I found it in the backpack. I would have said, “someone found it” and left it at that. Anyways great outcome.

I am in complete sympathy with your son. I lost my passport in my suitcase and didn’t find it until weeks after I had gotten a replacement from the Feds. For some of us it is our lot in life to forever forget or misplace things. I’ve developed an excellent sense of how to search over the years.

You are already the best kind of parent any kid could ever have. My thoughts were more along the lines of him worrying about what is going to happen with you. Some times it is more difficult for caregivers than it is for the patient. He just misplaced it who has not done that keys wallet? I think I would let him loose on paying your bills balancing check books so he will know where and how to do these things. Like if his phone was activated where to go to manage the account. He can do all this easy with a smile on his cherub face. All together now WE LOVE KYM. Only the best. This I post not for a response just another belly button. I also love pizza , use any excuse to get me some of that . Also doing something completely unexpected might highlight it’s importance to you. GO

It’s good to hear it was found. Those pesky toys are expensive.
There’s an app that might interest you (or others), that will track every consenting party, called. Life360. There’s probably other ones too, I’m sure, but this one just popped in mind.
