RV bandit at NASCAR races caught

[Tvov]

Interesting article about thefts going back decades:

http://sports.yahoo.com/news/the-rv-bandit-004524310.html

I looked quickly, but did not see this posted yet.

I suspect that along w/ looking as if he belonged at a NASCAR event he would have pretended he was intoxicated, also fitting the profile, if he was found w/i an RV.
Only time I ever was near an event was @ Watkins Glen. Lots of happy people with few cares in the world.

I'm surprised they ever caught him.

Its amazing that in 25 years never once was he seen in an RV or caught going through one. it took that long for one person to be in the right place at the right time!

Good for everyone!

the Yahoo story is much more detailed
he is already serving the 5 years of the first trial
and just got sentenced 10yrs plus 5yrs probation to serve, when the first 5yrs run out

hes not getting out of prison for while

i remember reading about his being caught and beaten
lost track of it, did not know about the trials
and sentencing

The O/P said "It goes back quite a ways" in the O/P.

One of the things that is good to know is the good guys never give up.

Thanks for that! Unbelievable how someone could get away with such visible thefts for so long. Nice to see justice served.
