Texas man uses Apple AirTag to track down person who stole his truck, then kills him: police

They tell you to let the police handle it, but they just let them go to steal again.

Steal property, you deserve death...Tell that to a Soros DA and see what happens.

Sorry, guys but (possibly except Texas) any DA or county attorney anywhere in the United States will charge you and get a conviction for second degree murder (if not first) for tracking down a thief that stole something from you and killing him.

Soros, in this case, has nothing to do with it.

About 10 years ago, my son in Surprise had his Ford 250, Harley Dividson edition stolen in the middle of the night. A friend a couple houses down was a LEO in Maricopa County. He told my son that his truck was stolen by the Mexican “coyotes”, as the 250 is their favorite human trafficking transportation up from Mehico. He told my son it would be destroyed after they made a few trips back and forth to Mehico. They should find his truck somewhere in a couple weeks. It gets more disgusting than that. That morning a secretary from a construction site called him and said she had a bunch of documents that looked like they may have been from his glove compartment. They were found next to the work site’s fuel pump. He told her what had happened and she said that the cheap coyote bastards normally refuel at construction sites. His truck had been stripped so they could be fitted with straps for the new “american” wetbacks to hold onto as they scream across the desert. Judging from the mileage, it appears they made three trips to Mehico. They then brought the truck back to Arizona and drove it over a cliff. They had to bring in a huge crane to pull it out of the canyon before the far left envirowackos started complaining about it ruining da “enviomen.”

Someone on another thread was complaining about "everything being blamed on immigrants" "legal and illegal" and made no distinction between them. What you posted here points out how the illegal invaders must be taken seriously. Every time I see one of the little men loitering around a public transit area or hardware store/lumberyard, I think of the criminal system in place that allows them to come here.

Perfect situation for one of those sweet .25 cal Titans...

Lots cheaper than months & months of lawyer costs...

Participate in jury nullification but never discuss it, just do it.

I like your style.

Sounds like something my husband would do.

In our case, it was just the door to the garage popping open because it hadn’t been closed completely. Didn’t matter; he was out of the bed, weapon drawn, and moving through the house in an instant.

I’m glad the dispatcher was fired. They were in the wrong field.

No worries!

Around these parts you get hanged while you’re alive and after it’s done you’ve been hung. The latter with the implication it was done correctly!

In some places horse thieves and cattle rustlers can still end up at room temperature. Most people are just wise enough to shut up about it.

But it still happens. (-;

They had duels too. Would make toters become better at quick draws.

Yep, miss those days.

This story is the truth. The off-duty cop neighbor told my son before the on-duty guys even arrived how this was going to go down and how and when it would end. He told my son they do reports on stolen F-250s in that part of Arizona on a daily basis because the “coyotes” prefer them. To me I would have thought they’d be stealing Cheebees. Maybe they do and keep them for themselves. Anyway. His nice truck was totaled. The insurance company had to pay for a new one.

That is not sarcasm, that is fact. Unless it happens to land in their lap that is the reality of it.

Yep

You're right. Never mess with a man's hat.

It’s a defense of prosecution in Texas. You can kill someone to prevent them from stealing

No it's not. The theft already occurred, the guy tracked him down with a tracker on the truck. There was no imminent theft or immediate fleeing. 9.42 isn't going to apply to this case, his only hope is the jury siding with him.
