Re: Max from Traxxion busts a thief

I hate to be the one to raise this question, but isn't it possible that they were in "cohoots" so to speak to make an insurance claim of over 100,000 in stolen bikes and then sell the parts for some scrilla too. Maybe their plan backfired because of max's observations and someone had to take the fall. I don't want to sound like a conspiracy theorist but i could never imagine stealing anything from a long time friend and we're talking 100,000+ in this instance.

Purchasing stolen goods is a crime in itself.

True, but it all comes down to intent. Given the cooperation and the steps the "victim buyer" went through to legitimize his purchases I'd say he's off the hook. However, I defer to the local LEO.

Still good to hear the crooks got nailed.

According to a post by John Ulrich on the WERA board, Jason Smith let the guy keep the parts to thank him for his cooperation. Pretty cool of him....

Re: Max from Traxxion busts a thief

Response from the guy who bought the stolen parts:

"I just wanted to let everyone know that Im the guy that bought these parts from this Joe Perry. I just wanted to publically say that Jason Smith is one of those rare standup guys. Since I was quick to help nail this guy by giving them all the paper trail, Max had inferred that he wouldnt be coming after me for the parts I paid $2100 for (which he had every right to do). The next day the cops said they wanted the parts back anyway. Jason went as far to take the same parts off his R6 and swap them for the stolen ones. Have you ever heard of anyt
