My Ginseng has been returned

[furbuy46]

Come in from Beaver trapping last friday and had a call from a detective that is a Indiana conservation Officer. He said he wanted to come out and talk to me about something, so I told him to come on over to my shop.
When he got here he had a big suitcase with him and I asked him was he figuring on staying for a couple weeks. He of course said that wasn't what the suitcase was for but instead he had some Ginseng for me to look at. Once he put the suitcase on the table and opened it, I took one look at the seng and told him it was my seng. He told me he figured it was mine by the way the sample looked that I gave him.
It was found only after the mans trailer had been searched by 2 conservation officers and 2 sheriff deputies that managed not to find a thing. The mans wife called the detective and told him that she had thought she had found the Ginseng. This was all after a full month went by. If it had not been for the man giving his step daughter some ginseng to sell , that I recognized as my ginseng, I would never have found out who took the Ginseng.
The man that broke into my shop had been a customer of mine for 25 years.
After the man is prosecuted I will give more details about him and the case. At this time the man is toast.

MR Bob, you hit the nail on the head about what this sucker was into. It was because he had the Gonads to break into my place and steal from me,as to why he ended up in jail to start with. The CO got a search warrant for his residence to search for my ginseng. They did not find the seng but they did find Needles, pills, pot and I think a little Meth. This of course led him straight to the jail house. He has been setting there since way back in December. The prosecutor told the CO to hurry and get his papers filed and the man will stay in jail. I got all but about a pound of the seng back. Without looking up how much he got from me, I think it was around 14 pounds. I got back around 13 pounds I think. I really have not had time to look on my paper work to get an accurate amt. He also was in violation of his Parole.

Good news is you got your root back, sad that a guy you trusted stole from you.

Glad the guy got caught and glad you got your seng back. I had quite a bit of building supplies stolen from me this past year. One job was hit twice and bother were in subdivisions with houses on both sides of me. Nobody ever got caught.
