I'm surprised it's even going to court. How did he not take a plea when the evidence is so concrete?

I'm curious to see what the guy gets if convicted. I'm guessing just probation though he SHOULD do some jail time.
 
Hopefully you don't get some guitarist or drummer as your judge who has no idea of the true value of your bass. If you do, maybe he'll just blow you off and let the thief go with a slap on ther wrist. :D

If the judge is a bass player, he'll probably send the thief to the gallows!!!!

It looks like he took a deal, 6mo in jail, 3yrs probation and orders to not go anywhere near my house for 3 years.

I would have liked to see more time but 6mo is not bad :-)

I am screwed with the whole trucker thing, he scammed me and there's nothing I can do really........

Sucks about the trucker (if he even is a trucker who knows) what a scumbag.

Good to hear the guy that actually stole it is getting jail time. In so many of these cases they only get probation.
 
Thought they might have at least given you 5 minutes alone with the SOB aswell

I always think of Pulp Fiction where Vincent Vega is talking about a guy keying his car.

"Boy, I wish I could've caught him doing it. I'd have given anything to catch that ***hole doing it. It'd been worth him doing it just so I could've caught him doing it."

And thinking about my favorite movie reminded me that it's time for a new user title.
