Low lifes. That’s why we need alarms, sadly.
County should put some money into a few more K-9 officers. Getting so a K-9 could be beneficial in a high percentage of crimes. Could have easily caught this guy.
I absolutely agree if the HCSO had had their own K9 officer the lowlife jerk hiding in & around Alderpoint would have been caught LONG ago!!! He among others would have been apprehended by now!!!!
Personally I don’t have a good history of getting along with One Time. But I bet some of them tell the best stories.
How tall was the fence?
How do you keep a criminal down?
You hide his payout under his work boots.
