He may have to hock that ring to pay for the search costs.
I must be totally clueless. I do not for the life of me see why she should be responsible for the search costs. She did not call for the search, she did not lead law inforcement to believe that a crime had been committed....she just simply hopped a bus to Vegas without telling anyone. Last time I looked that is a constitutional right, and not something you can be sued for.
The search costs are the result of the police deciding to declare this a criminal investigation....with NO evidence to back that up. Blame the freakin' police....it is their fault. As I said last night, if I jumped on a bus to Vegas without telling anyone, and the police spent thousands of dollars looking for me....I would laugh at them, and maybe suggest they get a new Chief.
