Awww, comeon... The kids who stole it are still alive anyway
I forget just how that whole incident played out. Did you eventually
find out who took it? Were they charged with the crime and convicted?
Did you recover the bike?
Turned out the kid down the street was involved as was another cops kid
(two all together of 4).. The two kids who "did" get busted were not
cops kids. After meeting the family of the one kid and seeing that it
was not worth having him go through life with a felony conviction when
he was not really the "ring leader" was not the way we wanted to go. The
family was a hard working immigrant family and the kid made a mistake of
hanging with the wrong crowd. We got the bike back, they paid for the
damages, told us the whole story, who and how, etc. After talking to the
youth officer in town who knew the two charged were being set up, we
dropped the charges... From what I understand, we did the right thing,
the kid is working hard and back in school. The two other punks are
still out there, nothing has changed much for them from what I
understand.
