HEY-OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!

To make a long story short, Guy got busted on all sorts of stuff, 8 cops, narcotics team with dog, had a bunch of kayaks, and we have been cleared to pick up this boat.

OEX would like to thank all of the members of BWE for their support and Matt for heading up there with me to take care of this.

So...guess he won't be joining this board any time soon...:doh:


BWE :you_rock:

....What.... No Beatin'......... ?

Did they at least kneel down on His neck when they cuffed him ?

-I hope they at the very least made the cuffs too tight. That hurts like a son-of-a bit@h.:p

Good Job CJ - By the way where exactly in Clairemont was this guy located ?

Brent here-I just wanted to say thanks to all of you for getting this guy! It's great to see BWE brings people together when it counts-so next time there's controversy on our site, lets remember BWE brings out the common good in people as well!

Happy Turkey Day everyone!:cheers1:

If he has posted bail, he might be at home in time for a BWE Beatdown session.:rolleyes:
Brent: Congrats on a successful BWE web presence and crime stoppers network!
Drake and the others that helped out: Mucho Gracious, and may your lines be full of Karma!
Lurkers: Hope you enjoyed the story...
Thievs: BEWARE of BWE!!!:the_finger:

Happy T-giving all!:cheers1:

Thats great that the fool got caught. Now lets just hope he gets what he deserves..

Wow! This is very cool. I had not been on the site since Sieblers first post. TMan called me this evening and filled me in on what went down. I love it. Great detective work and even better teamwork.

Sometimes this site can get bogged down with a silly spat over one thing or another. Then something like this happens and we all become brothers again. Everyone who was involved should be very proud of themselves. I am equally proud to be associated a a great group like this that always comes together in times of need.

Great ending to a crappy story. Not sure if we are better served by no publicity (so the crooks don't know we are networked), or lots of publicity (so the crooks know that we are networked). Seems like the former is starting to work for us recently. WTG to all that jumped into action to get an immediate result.

Wow, I get busy for a bit and end up missing all that action.

BWE :you_rock: I just wish a group like BWE was around when my mountain bike got stolen a couple weeks ago; damn, way to go!

Yeah! Good to hear that guy got what he deserved and even more important, that you got your boat back. I've been lurking here on the forum and check craigslist often just in case there is a good deal. I haven't felt like posting anything yet since I have caught nothing to brag about, but I HAD to help out. Looks like the timing was right and we caught the ad before that idiot got the chance to sell it. Nice work everyone!

That's one less thief off the street !!!
Happy ending..
Happy Thanksgiving to all...:luxhello::luxhello::luxhello:

Two blocks from my house. Been home the last three days fighting through a miserable flu or I would have seen the yak sitting in this DBs front yard earlier.

Anyway a bwe member stopped by to pick up some gear and was amazed to see the police cars, kayaks, bikes, and this dipstick getting arrested. By the time I went down there to check it out he was already gone. Small world. My Dad stopped by a few hours earlier and mentioned the police were out in force down the street. I just assumed it was the wife beater on the corner or the chunky white girl who loves crack head gang bangers next to them at it again. Turns out its just another dead beat tweeker thief, time to freaking move! Though I do love the back yard!

So the precise local of the police vehicles today was the SE corner home of Hidalgo and...............LOSER street. A few blocks north of Alcott Elementary.

Good job BWE!!!

I know that neighborhood. I'm on the other side near Balboa.

There has been a big increase in thefts in recent months. I would expect it to get worse as long the economy stays down like it is now.

Last week there was a home invasion a block from me. The owner was able to get to his gun and the 2 guys bolted out of the house into the canyon. The PD helicopter was flying at roof level announcing to stay indoors. - lmao

-I turned on all my lights out back near the canyon and used Steevooo 15 Million Candle Power Spot Light to light it up down there. The cops caught both of them.
-You hardly get to shoot anyone anymore, so when opportunity knocks take advantage of the situation. :p

My wifes friend lives right there and told us about that. She of course was walking around outside trying to see what was going on because she couldnt understand what the helicopter police were saying. I swear she needs a hearing aid!

Times are tough, just glad I have LOTS of AMMO! :D

So check it guys,

They are still looking for the owners of 2 Tarpon 140's (Red and Blue) and a Perception in Orange (no model given to me).

Brent or I will be stopping by Monday to help them more positivly identify model years of the kayaks and pull serial numbers as they cant find that stuff.


If you hear of anybody looking for these let us know!

The UT glossed BWE and OEX MB in today's sports section, page 2 under Outdoors.

Great ending to a lousy situation.

that would be a nice post copy of article....let's rub it in a little you all deserve to...imo:reeling:

:drool5:Welcome to the Darkside.

"Some insider drama played out on www.bigwatersedge.com as OEX Mission Bay reported a stolen kayak from the store to the kayaking board members and asked fellow ‘yakers to be on the lookout for it. Short time later, some bonehead posted the very distinctive camouflaged kayak on Craigslist. Short time after that, San Diego’s newest member of America’s 10 Dumbest Criminals Club was busted by San Diego Police. Not very smart to mess with guys who paddle the ocean in the dark and fish close enough to the water’s edge to go eyeball to eyeball with the fish they gaff."


Who needs a video game, when you get a real rod and some real action on the water. :drool5:

"stupid is as stupid does". :doh:

Glad this tool was caught. I hope we get pics of the perp. I bet this guy has been seen somewhere before, possibly scoping out launches or other rental facilities.

Pictures! What a great idea

thieves among us
 

that sucks A$$ . karma is a pain in the backside :the_finger: .

LMFAO!

A new AW toy? What did ya get? FN SCAR-H? M14 EBR? H&K?... Barret?... Do tell...

Good vs Evil
 

This site rocks!!!
I just joined a week ago and there are two stories of members helping each other out. The first with a guy leaving his rods by the boat ramp being found and returned and now this. I have faith in fishermen again.

Thanks Guys,
Dave

thank you...:reel: pretty cool stuff...

Got it Back!
 

Brent picked up from SDPD today. Thanks to everybody for the help and support.

:luxhello::cheers1::grouphug: REDMPTION!!!

You guys are awesome
 

I'm gonna go steal the mona lisa and sell it on craigslist,do you think anyone will recognize it?

Is it still for sale for $550 ;)

Matt is buying it actually. Good story behind it so he just had to own it.

One last update for everybody.

I was Subpoenaed to appear this last Thursday to testify against this guy. Short story is that he pleaded out to Felony possession of stolen property and will be serving 365 days. Upon his release he will be starting a new parole (yeah he was on parole already). Good deal for him as they wanted to put him on trial for the theft as well. DA said he was a "Hoarder of stolen property".

So all in all the BWE crew put a criminal behind bars. Thanks again guys

I was part of my first sting operation ever! Solid!

Great....now he get's three meals a day, a bed to sleep in, and all the free health care he want's :rolleyes:

We'll be reading about this guy again when he get's out in 6 months, due to over crowding...
