Farm Stand Update - Have We Caught the Thief
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 сен 2024
- In Today's video we talk about the farm stand and the thief that has been coming since January (It's July 22 when this was posted) and we still have not caught him. We have the plate and identified him. The arrest warrant will be issued soon if it has not already be done. And at some point, he will be arrested. When that happens, we will definitely update you.
Thanks for watching our videos! If you want to visit our farm and stay in the b&b, go to www.millgapfarms.com. We also have Virginia’s only USDA Organic Maple Syrup available for you to enjoy too!
Our videos are for entertainment purposes only. Do not try any stunts like these unless you have your own channel and plenty of insurance. No animals were harmed in the making of these videos, except for maybe Kevin. #maplesyrup #makingmaplesyrup #farming #maplefarm
Update Video here... ruclips.net/video/XF--ZQJUzoU/видео.html
(Edit BELOW)Oh my stars!!! We are overwhelmed with the kindness from each of you! We normally get about 100 views on our videos. Not too long after the video when live, we started getting orders through our website (www.millgapfarms.com). It's strange because this time of year we might see a couple orders each month. I wasn't sure what was happening. A couple of you guys emailed us too. One person offered another blue mason jar! How kind is that! I am still in shock as to the number of views this video has gotten not to mention the number of comments. Emily is out of town with the kids this weekend at a baby shower in Manahawkin, NJ. I'm tending to the farm and thankfully we have guests coming and going in our b&b! We also have an event this weekend in town. I WILL RESPOND TO EVERYONE'S COMMENTS. it will take me a few days. Thank you so much for watching our video and leaving your thoughts! As we get more information on this, I'll post it to the channel.
(First Edit - with the thought they will be more) It's been about a week since this video went live. I thought i would be able to respond to everyone's comments but i must say, I'm overwhelmed with the support of the channel and our farm. A lot of orders for maple syrup have come in and we are filling them as fast as we can. I don't know when I will be able to answer everyone but in time I will do my best. Thank you for you kindness and support. I will have a video out today or tomorrow talking more about the situation.
God Bless You! Kevin
No need to reply to me sir but you have me best wishes. Amazing how things like social media and cameras can be used for good or bad but in this case, you may have changed this thief's perspectives by forcing him to face the consequences of his actions as he sees them in the mirror of social media and saved yourself a lot of headaches from the constant loss. This could literally make him a better man and it looks like he needs the help. I'm up in Md but I'm going to pin the farm for my next road trip for some syrup!
it was recommended by youtube algorithm, never knew your channel existed
Please don't post these type of details of you and your family's whereabouts here on the internet!!!! (trust in God, but tie your camel)
OMG this is amazing that people reached out to help you! ❤
Please let us know how this ends up.
If he's stealing from you, he's also stealing elsewhere when given a chance.
Been my experience it usually starts with stealing from family and when it's overlooked/excuses accepted, it progresses from there. Sneaking a 15¢ roll of butterscotch lifesavers into my pocket when I was 5yrs old taught me to never steal. Mom making me take them back and apologize in tears was nothing compared to when dad got home.
Of course, it's what Trumpers do!
Then they blame Antifa and say they'll help you find the thief! 🤣😂
Just about typed the exact same comment. Agree 100%
In China, the minimum sentence is 3 years. It might sound harsh, but it keeps the jail empty.
Exactly! He’s not very smart, especially knowing the guy has cameras in the first place, and after he had taken them, he found more! Robbery could happen next, unless he already has!
It's two guys so both should be charged not just the one on video. The one driving is just as complicit.
Charge his BF too!
100% correct. The getaway driver is equally guilty.
one is kid rock it seems
My guy is lucky the cops even made a phone call to the perps address. If they can talk him into coming into the police station to confess, then they might charge him. My guy's only hope for justice depends on whether he knows a cop, better yet, the chief, the mayor, or someone else with sway. Cops are not actually for what you think they're for.
Oh he’s gonna ray on his driver in 1 second! 😂
Also get him for stealing the cameras,not just the cash.
Felony Grand Theft !
Distruction of property
Breaking and entering.
In all honesty I bet he gets a slap on the wrist unless he has many priors. Probably get it pled down to a misdemeanor charge.
@@jumboslice1514 the amount of value is too big
with the numbers of cam + sd card + batteri + + + it all add up
so no when you are over a certain amount and the number of times
he can be proven on the grounds .. vell repeat offender
Love that his brother had no problem confirming everything to the deputy, and gave him all he needed to get the arrest warrant going along.
LOL for all we know dude was probably hiding and the brother who happened to be the driver covered for him. So please stop giving credits without even knowing this people.
@@lcfflc3887so you go by guilty until proven innocent instead of innocent until proven guilty. Got it.
We have to their jobs. Useless.
Cos his brother is as gutless as him.
There was an honor egg stand here where I live. The lady was using the money, a small amount for her gas money to travel to doctor appointments out of town. It was a really cute stand. Some jerk stole all the eggs and money and ran over the egg stand afterwards. Sadly never was caught and she’s unfortunately passed away since then. I have very little faith in humanity at this point.
Wow, that is so incredibly sad. Honestly, if someone needs help like that a go fund me is completely justified.
No faith because of one loser?
@@blockededited8280that’s the last loser straw-
I know it well
Don't lose your faith in humanity. Because if that's the way you see the world through your eyes, then that's the way the world will be. Preach to and learn from others. And never give up.
There is always one jerk that ruins nice things for everyone else.
In this it was two
Many more than just one now days.
I'm from WV and people like this are an embarrassment. If he's stealing from you, he's stealing from others. He needs to be held accountable. Good luck to you, sir.
@@mikehammer7419 In Mingo County I know places if he got caught he would meet his demise.
@@joeyl.rowland4153 As it should be, we don't need that kind around good folks
Let's just say he steals from everyone.
That may be the reason he hasn't been arrested yet. The police are looking to see how widespread his acts are. Perhaps his brother is sick and tired of him too. Sounds like he gave them a lot of information.
I'd be surprised if he doesn't already have a rap sheet.
No plea deal please. Others are suffering from this individual
This man with the farm stand is only the tip of the iceberg with this criminal !
@fposmith Everyone living within 2hours drive of this farmstand needs to watch this video ! Pass it around!
Binge court cases, DA's plead everything down for no reason at all. Especially if they are elected in a Dem state.
@@kookietherapy9398 Good idea.
the DA can get the driver to plea bargain and testify against the perp - whom is probably already a nuisance in the county ...
The fact that you still run an Honor System Stand is awesome. I wish I could give you my business!! Your heart is much bigger and more forgiving than mine.
I think given the opportunity you might surprise yourself how kind and forgiving you can be. Don't get me wrong, I went through a lot of emotions getting to this point... but in the end, they were all for nothing. I cannot change this person on God can! I'm glad he is not stealing from us any more... or at least hasn't yet. He is a bold fella for sure. Thanks for watching Mr. Matt Dat! And thanks for the comment. Kevin
@@MillGapFarmsI used to buy our eggs and hunny and potatoes from our village farm egg shed. It was a honesty box. He put a sign in it one day and said please don’t steal, get your food from the food bank if you can’t afford to buy. It’s now closed after 60 years. These people have no morals
I'm shocked that you are that trusting. Of course he or she knows what they're doing is wrong. The thief doesn't care.
@@MillGapFarms not really bold at all. You make it so simple and easy to steal from you. Why is he bold? LOL. He got away with him more than two dozen times. Not bold - greedy
I would agree that he is greedy! Kevin
ADD up all the $ of what he has stolen to total a FEDERAL offence. Farmers that want to FEED the people are the kindest people. GOD BLESS OUR FARMERS.
This^
When they aren't polluting the land, air & water for everyone else with corporate methods instead of ancient, traditional ones...
Fed pens are generally greatly preferable to State pens. The whole thing with making it a "Federal" offense is mis-guided. State pens range from really bad (Angola) to possibly fractionally better than a Fed Pen. Generally, they are far more miserable.
@@ButcherBird-FW190D One thing that makes a huge difference, the Federal system has no parole. Sentenced to ten years, do ten years.
@@xerxes8632 That is an excellent point, albeit please note the fed system allows for up to 54 days off per year ( ~ 15%) for good behavior. Granted; state systems typically allow for this as well, and in potentially greater amounts. State systems also sometimes allow for training, treatment, and placement of trust positions.
Your point is an excellent one to make. However, please note the 10-year sentence does not mean 10 years. It means 8.5 years to 10 years.
Put his picture and license plate up for him to see at the farm stand.
And around town somebody knows this low life.
Nah. Let him watch the video on YT like us, and the ads viewed will give a few pennies to the farmer (only 30 seconds is all that is needed)
Great idea! 🥳
@@cliffontheroad Unless he has an ad blocker.
He's not that bright.@@MsBamafanatic
That man is plenty old enough to know better than to steal from anyone. He needs to be held accountable.
The tipping point there is probably about 3 yrs old!
five year olds know better he's just a selfish scumbag
Trumpers, always criming...just like the big guy. Destroying America daily. 🤦♂️😪
He's not a man...
@@redcanoe9810 mentally no
He understands, he just doesn’t care. He’s been like this for years and not likely to change.
Well I agree that we must still pray. Some people DO repent. It is a very bleak world if we don't believe that sinners cannot come to God's understanding.
@@lechatel Pray your life away. He will only start to understand if he's put in a situation where he thinks he should start praying and understand the fear of God.
What a Christ-like attitude you have!! I pray this man will be convicted of the wrong he is doing, repent and seek God. Thank you for your compassion, patience and concern for this man's soul. May God's blessings rest on you and your family.💗
So glad you didn’t blur out his face and the license plate!
When he gets convicted, make sure you put an ad in his town local paper with his picture and convection. That will alert others that he is a thief and to be aware when he's around. Once a thief, always a thief, they have no morals. Glad you finally got the evidence you needed.
Yes, they should be exposed.
Look up is cps allowed to lie in family court which it says yes! There's different types of thieves. Looting federal funding by bloating case loads is a crime! Theft by deception is a crime so what's abduction by deception in family court using qualified immunity premeditated serial predator status human trafficking our children? Federal funding supports and promotes this violation to humanity!
nice idea
They can repent and God can change their heart. I've met several reformed thieves
Name & Shame him !
We had a similar thing happen when I lived in Ohio. A senior neighbor on the main country road had an “Honor” stand with sweet corn, tomatoes, etc. Everything was great for a long time until it wasn’t. Those were the days when Facebook and security cameras were still a very new thing.
The stand’s owner posted a big sign about the honor box being taken. It was a small town so the news spread fast and was even a sermon topic at our local small town church. Folks were very upset because they counted on this honor stand for their veggies for supper every night.
It wasn’t long before the culprit was discovered. The culprit was the idiot son whose parents lived in the area. The parents made the idiot child return the cash box, apologize to the stand’s owner, and stand by the roadside with a sign stating the he was the thief. Nothing like a good public shaming to get their mind right.
This is what I like about small towns and villages, people can't be bad the same as they'll get found out and everyone will know.
Man that’s classic, good parenting, and debutant from doing wrong, my guess would be he never steals again.
Nice!
That's a great story. I.jope the kid remembers it for the rest of his life. Hopefully, he will some day teach his children the importance of being honest.
Yup back in the day we had a small dairy that sold raw milk, and you filled your jugs put the money in the cigar box and all was good. Then they lost over 50 gallons of milk and the box in one night. SO much for the honor system
That happened to me at my farm stand in Florida. The local sheriff installed his own camera. Which he was able to monitor himself. The next time she broke into the money box he was able to identify and arrest her. Charged her with burglary of a structure which is a felony in Florida.
Awesome
Florida.. on your property coming to steal sounds like stand your ground situation
Aw the opposite happened to a farm stand near me:/ She used to sell cookies and pies but kept being thefted from, both money and food. She caught the lady stealing and asked her on camera if she had done it, the lady admitted yes. Cookie lady took video to our Sheriff and he said she coerced her and there was no case. Cookie lady stopped selling, thief died shortly after of an overdose.
I’m glad your Sheriff does his or her job.
Massachusetts here. We have an honor system vegetable stand here. Some days the till is a little short but on other days there is too much money. I think folks just didn't have the right change on some days so leave extra next time they stop by.
I love the way it works out.
You are a great guy. Don't let this one bad egg sour you. Most folks are honest and grateful!! 😊
My husband is retiring next year, I have added you to our list of trips we want to make. God bless you and hope to see you soon!
It is now time for you to file a lawsuit against him. Sue him on top of his criminal retributions. Thieves are horrible. Make him remember it for the rest of his life. I have no compassion for people who prey on others.
Uh, you wouldn't get anything worthwhile. Lawsuits cost money and the hope it get money out of the person you sue. He likely doesn't have two nickles.
At one point in our history, a suit made of tar and feathers would have been one possible solution.
@@kcgunesq The car they used in the crime is worth money.
@@freemab222 In cases like this the juice is almost never worth the squeeze. And a person who is praying for the criminal to lead a Godly life isn't suing anyone, and good for them.
Small claims court.
@@etainepona4206 Depends on your state. If you can document multiple occurrences you can sue for actual damages and then for the torment of it all. Criminal Judge should let his ass sit in jail for 11-29. And then give him several years of probation on top of it.
26 or 28 times is predatory behavior and the theft of multiple cameras plus money in an honor system. I could see a DA in Florida letting them serve a dime in prison. Now that would serve the punk right.
You are a gem. How unique to see a trusting, calm, generous, person who has been victimized as many as 24+ times from the same individual, request prayer for that person in hope of his salvation. Blessings to you and yours!
I trust in karma, biblical style.
Isaiah 47: 10 ¶ For thou hast trusted in thy wickedness: thou hast said, None seeth me. Thy wisdom and thy knowledge, it hath perverted thee; and thou hast said in thine heart, I am, and none else besides me.
11 Therefore shall evil come upon thee; thou shalt not know from whence it riseth: and mischief shall fall upon thee; thou shalt not be able to put it off: and desolation shall come upon thee suddenly, which thou shalt not know.
That man is Christine who owns the stand.
Prayers for all involved.
There are quite a few places near me in NH that sell eggs and produce on the honor system.
"When good men do nothing to fight evil, it's only encouragement ..." ☆
As I said SUE HIM on top of his criminal charges. The state does not care about the victim.
The only thing nessesary for evil to triumph over good is for good men to do nothing. Think that was Burke
Well done for catching him
@@tommyrussell1415 The correct wording is "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing." It's credited to William Burke. This guy needs to be prosecuted and shamed on social media. I mean, what kind of p*** of sh** steals from a family market on the side of the road?
Whether it is these losers in rural areas or flash-gangs raiding stores in cities ------------>>> where were their parents when they were growing up? Who is enabling them now?
That’s great that you are doing this. We have these everywhere in Japan and no one steals from them. Keep it up!
Stealing from a small farmer's market is stealing from us all, how DISGUSTING. Glad you caught him! Keep up the good work.
I have blue jars with air bubbles and zinc lids. They’ve been in the family since they were new. I’d be happy to donate one to you.
You are a decent man Steven
I have lot of them. I could send one too.
Much obliged, many thanks!
You are so kind! ❤
Good sir, you are very kind man. Such rarities these days.
Ask the LEOs if you can have him “trespassed” which means he can be arrested if he ever sets foot onto your property.
He will probably have to go to a magistrate n donut himself if they're as trifling there as they are here
If LEO can't/won't do it, ask the prosecutor to request it when it goes before a judge.
Trespass no. I would suggest a restraining order.
and a RO.
Official trespass and restraining order. Two more things in your quiver.
From your videos and commentary, this man didn't act alone. Hope your state is not soft on criminals, and justice will be done.
It's a red state, and the thief is an obvious trump supporter....dont hope too hard. 🤣😂
scumbags are everywhere.
You are such a kind man,wish you prosperity and good health forever.🙏
In the Finger Lakes, the cash boxes are mostly bolted or chained. This guy is certainly stealing from others, so refuse to take any plea. Prey for him to go to jail for awhile, a few days with bubba may awaken his soul. Haleluhla.
I had someone rip the end of the table off to steal the cash box it was bolted too. I once caught a woman at 5 am stealing my stuff. She was driving an expensive SUV so it wasn’t poverty that motivated her.
@@user-xk4vt9ye8j”You don’t have to be stupid to steal”
I live in the fingerlakes also. This is soooo sad. 😢
These days you need the box where money can’t be removed without a key, with a sign that it’s removed every evening.
@@sharonchristine664 me too! Andi agree 👍 What is wrong with people?
Your too kind. He understands what he’s doing. This guy is in need of PRISON!!!!
Hard labor on the farm.
* You're.
@@BabsKaz That is justice. Cramming people into jails does not work, and is only vengeance motivated. That dude should have to work off the debt, and thereby benefit the farmer.
@@artstrology I agree!!
I have a small Honeybee Apiary in NW Georgia. For 3 years I have placed an honor stand out by our country road. To my amazement its never been robbed. It is difficult at times to have faith in mankind with the way people are behaving these days but my little stand had renewed my faith.
It saddened me to this video today but thankful you were able to catch him.
Keep praying, it always reveals the answers.
God's Blessings
One bad apple spoils the barrel, that's for sure.
I have zero faith in mankind. All my faith is in God alone. No one can steal that
Sad when people have to steal from good hard working people. God bless you for your positive attitude.
You have a kind heart. If he goes that out of the way to steal from you, he is surely stealing from others. Whoever is driving is as guilty as he is and should be charged as well.
The honor system. A thing that used to be very common during my lifetime and brought out the best in people, but sadly has now exposed some of the worst. God bless you and your faith in humanity. I hope this has not ruined it.
It always exposed the worst. You just didn’t have RUclips to see it.
You need to take the rose coloured glasses off.
@@freedfree7933 Could be the area in which I grew up. Many of my family were farmers and had stands very much like this. It was very rare for any funny business to happen. I have no doubt that unscrupulous individuals have always been around but none of my family members have honor stands anymore.
@@freedfree7933 No, not really. Where I grew up in Maryland in the 70's you really never did lock your doors or your car, most people left their car keys in the car and neighbors were welcome into any home for just about anything whenever. At the convince store/gas station, you could take whatever you needed even if you didn't have any cash to pay at the time, they knew you and trusted everyone because the only real crime we had was when me and my brother and friends would sneak into the elementary school on the weekend to break out the rubber dodge balls. I live about 30 minutes away from there now and can confirm that no one leaves their doors unlocked or their keys in their cars anymore and it's not because of you tube.
Thieves dont discriminate,they steal from anyone they can !! My grandaddy was a county judge in a small town in N Florida ,he pounded in our heads growing up that liars and thieves run together.❤
And can always be found at trump rallies! 🤦♂️😂
And are usually one in the same.
@@philpalmer4877now that was a very stupid thing to say but then again, you may have no clue?!
@@thisbushnell2012you and shortcutt….dumb and dumber!
@@lovespurpleflowers lol...buy more trump swag, send more money in to 'fight the deep state' , 'save the election', or just fund a billionaires lifestyle and pay his legal expenses...🤣😂
Do you have a clue? 🤦♂️
I hope he sees this video.
You didn’t call him any names other than thief. You didn’t display any anger or vengeance-just honest frustration and disappointment. Thoughtful concern, even.
Nicely handled!
Is there a worse name than ‘thief’ ?
@@CarolFremel-my4hs yes, e.g. “*mean adjectives* thief” (like dirty, good for nothing, etc…)
You’re absolutely right though. I guess I should have specified it was how he delivered it. Calling a thief a thief doesn’t necessitate additional disrespect. It’s already a heavy enough name!
God Bless Mill Gap Farms.
Both you & the thief are in our prayers. 🙏❤️🌞❤️🙏
Your understanding and compassion is beautiful. I wish I had your grace.
I’m so glad you found him but breaks my heart that people like him are the reason honest people can’t enjoy honor farm stands. Traveling through Washington and Oregon and being able to buy fresh eggs, veg, raw milk and sometimes flowers is amazing and I love supporting local. I sure hope this guy pays for what he has done. Thanks for the update be blessed ❤
When I was young milk delivery was still a thing. One could leave an empty milk bottle on your porch or in the milk box beside your door with money in it to pay for your next bottle of milk or pay your weekly tab. Not one person in the village would dare to steal it. If you checked you would also find that many people never locked or removed the keys from the ignition of their cars. Very few people locked the doors to their home, even when they went on vacation. My parents did not have a locking door on our house until 1979.What has our society come to these days????
We don't lock our doors. Honestly if I had to I'd have to get new keys because we don't have any, person that sold us the house didn't either😂
Imho it is the spread of misuse of drugs, the effect of needing the next fix drives people to do most awful things. Big thanks to all who help others break the addiction.
The awful examples set by 'leaders' also tend to jade the children early.
From your Bible read 2 Timothy 3:1-5. Here it tells how people would be during this time period.
I’ve only experienced an honor farm stand once and that was in 2023 when I hiked the Appalachian Trail. Nice stand that had Gatorade (I know not a farm product) eggs, two flavors of ice cream in two sizes and milk in several sizes. When I stopped I gorged on ice cream and paid triple what they asked simply because I truly appreciated what the family/farmer were doing. Many of the hikers with me that day did the same. Best of luck
Kind of amazed you're able to have a stand like this at all in this day and age.
There's a lady near me that sells jellies/preserves and such like this and has for years. Never heard of any thefts.
What is this day and age? 🤦
Awesome, well said. Pray for him.
We are and we will continue to do so. Thanks for your comment! Hope to see you in more. Kevin
I can understand and sympathize with your position that all you want is for the theft to stop. The problem is, without punishment, it will not stop. It may stop at your stand, but his behavior will not change unless he gets a wake up call. 90 days in the county lockup may just be what it takes to make a believer out of him.
Let him have hard labor on the farm!
Jails do not work. It is basically criminal school where tricks of the trade are exchanged. They should only be for violent offenders. Making the guy work on that farm until his debt is paid is justice. And make sure the local paper reports it.
You got him, I'll tell ya, there is nothing more American than the farm stand, and the trust we put into our fellow man. He is certainly thieving from others, if you have the lack of moral fiber to do this to one, you will do it to others. I was selling camp firewood for a few years on my property. I had a few incidents where someone was taking the wood and not leaving money. I'm the kind of guy that will gladly give wood to someone in need. I installed a camera, on a post, in plain site, and it stopped. All I need to do was to show the camera's existence in my case. God bless you sir, and I too will pray for this man.
Apple pie would like to have a word 🤔
We do farm stands over here in Australia too.
Farm stands have been around in Europe for longer than the US existed.
Good luck. Beautiful shop stand.
You are very fortunate to be living where you are. Where I live, rapes, shootings, armed robbery, theft, assaults, gang violence, etc. is a daily concern. It wasn't always like that. I am a senior and I remember that not that long ago, we had no such concerns like that. I wish I had the money to move to a location like yours. So peaceful.
We Appreciate your efforts to get to the bottom of this theft. It’s Unfortunate we have people in this World that Don’t want to Work and make an Honest Living. 👍🙏
You are such a kind hearted person. I hope justice is served and he sees the error of his ways. You have a lovely stand and I am so glad you are wanting to continue. God bless.
Thank you for never giving up on catching this thief! You can be sure that he and his partner ( the driver of the vehicle) do this frequently. We all pay the price for what is stolen whether it is a small farm store or a large business. So sad.
They may even treat it as a 'job' with a regular schedule and route.
over an hours drive . ? it would be a real shame if his car went faulty or missing .they would have a long hard walk to continue their wicked ways .
What a nightmare. I am glad you solved this crook. Please remain strong. Your farm stand is provable not the only place he steal from. New subscriber 🙏🏽
I love traveling and running into the places like this that are still available ALL over the entire country 😊😊😊
That’s what makes this country wonderful??! Kevin
A few bad apples ruin it for all
Thanks for your patience
Definitely prosecute
Love to see justice. Keep us updated
Who steals from an honor farm stand? What a scumbag. I never knew virginia produced maple syrup, thats really cool that youre able to do that! Best of luck, my friend.
hi kevin, from argentina. God bless you.
The righteous person may have many troubles,
but the Lord delivers him from them all; Psalm 34:19
Your forgiving nature is a compliment to you and those close to you.
He understands what he’s doing, he just doesn’t care. Going easy on someone like this seems like the christian thing to do but in my opinion, that hurts more than it helps. Thieves grow more confident the longer they get away with something. Teaching him a lesson today can keep him from going down a path where he could hurt someone.
You are handling this perfectly, and your last comments warm my heart, thank you brother. I will pray for him!
I’m so glad you found out who this guy is. Prayers
You sir are amazing! Your path was meant to cross with this man. You are the man to change his life and he will be thankful forever. Peace to you!
What occurred to me was an AirTag in one of the cameras hidden that you knew he would steal. If he threw the camera away, you would know where it was, etc.. People who are package thieves, sometimes get the surprise of their life when they open things that they shouldn’t have their hands on. I’m glad you have the necessary information. Don’t hold your breath for the authorities to help you, just look what happened in Butler, Pennsylvania.
Exactly, a trump supporter tried killing trump....just like this trump supporter stole from the farm stand. Crazy country, with one common thread. 🤣
For those porch pirates who steal packages, make sure you read up on "booby trap" laws in your area. Even if it's just as innocent as a glitter bomb, you could be prosecuted for assault. If a glitter bomb goes off while the thief is driving away (if he or his passenger opens the package while the car is in motion) and he gets injured in an accident, YOU can be held liable. Booby traps are 100% prohibited where I live.
What happened in Butler? Did someone rob another farm stand?
Glad to hear that things are progressing in the right direction! Onward and upward. 👍😎
You are a blessing, thank you ❤
Please be safe.
My Mom was in her 60’s working as a nurse for 12-hour shifts.
She was single and needed to work as long as she could. 😢someone broke the cameras off of her house, broke her windows and entered her house. That alone is enough to alarm anyone to know there are persons out there who knows the layout and knows where everything in her house is. Even worse, she was stolen from. They even took her Mother’s ring that my brothers and I had given her for Mother’s Day shortly before this occurred. There’s a special place reserved for people like this. What a violation! She was helping, comforting and showing compassion to people probably at some of the worst times in their lives while she was being stolen from.
That makes me sad. Thanks for sharing. And thanks for watching our video! Kevin
You should also hire an attorney and file a civil suit, as the police will likely only drop this case so he will plead on other unrelated charges. Been there, have the t-shirt… even if he is judgement proof it will stick on him longer than a misdemeanor… You can never tell them to pay or you will prosecute as that is extortion. But, through criminal court there is little chance to recover anything. Plus if you don’t follow it closely they will let it fade away…It’s the only way he will stop…
I hope I didn’t come across or even say that we would not prosecute if he gave us our stuff back. For sure that is extortion or against the law. I’ll go back and review the video to make sure I didn’t say anything like that. Because we would not do that for any reason. Thanks for watching our video and taking a minute to leave your thoughts. Means a lot to us. Kevin
I used to drive by an honor stand like yours although not as nice. I always bought stuff to support the family. And to this day it still makes me feel great that they trusted people to do the right thing. I miss those days where if I forgot to lock the house, I didn't have to worry too much about someone breaking in. The days when people were decent to each other. Sigh.
It shows the sort of person you are, when you still have compassion for people who have wronged you. Well done Sir.
You handle this very well. May you and your stand be richly blessed.
It's hard but you are right. We have to pray for those people. You are an excellent example
I was hoping for the thief to be a very personable raccoon or an unusually friendly bear
Maybe it's the thief's spirit animal😂😂😂j/k.
Animals do not steal just for the joy of it, nor do they choose evil knowingly and deliberately. Only the 'smart' species.
I'm glad to see your hard work and patience have finally paid off. Restitution would be nice, but in the end, if he just stops stealing, that in itself would be nice.
After doing it 24 times, a $150 fine won't change his ways.
Standing in agreement, praying for these individuals! imo, the driver of the vehicle is just as culpable in the commission of the crime! Will also pray that this puts an end to these kinds of shenanigans at your farm stand!!! ❤️🙏❤️
MY BROTHER.. !!! YOU KNOW GOD WILL BLESS YOU...!!!!!! IT'S HAD TO FORGIVE A PERSON TAKING YOUR STUFF... !!!!!!!
I was originally just going to leave a comment about how nice of a person you seem to be and how calmly patient you have been trying to catch this guy. But the end of your video, where you said you were praying for this man was really the best. God bless you and prosper you, and keep you in good health even as your soul prospers.
Thank you for watching and taking a minute to leave your thoughts. They are very encouraging! Hope to see you in future comments. Kevin
if you haven't already, trespass him and get a quick/emergency restraining order against him. it will help if any future visits do happen.
You sir are a real gentleman the world needs more people like you!!! God bless you and I hope your stand does better than ever!!
Your stand is beautiful!
I’m so sorry this happened to you. Praying for you and him! Excellent request. Many blessings to you and your family
One of my favorite things about rural America are honor food stands. I always stop, PAY, and grab something great. Glad you got this guy. Cheers.
Glad you caught the thief. Hope you get justice. Takes a whole heart to pray for the thief that robbed them. God bless you. You take Christian to a level I hope to aspire.
Y’all are a LOT nicer than I would be…….🤨
God bless you and your work.
Thank you for your diligence and determination. Most of all, thanks for sharing. Hopefully it serves as proof that criminals will be caught. Blessings to you and your family.
Great work standing up for yourself while remaining compassionate! I hope to be as understanding as you one day! Bless you, your family, and the man
Y'all are good beautiful people❤
One time, a lapse in good judgment. Any more than that is a plan. And..there's two of them involved! Nice car, and they look well fed.
To file charges against them would actually help them to become A Better Person.
You absolutely need to press charges and prosecute these individuals. The next person they steal from may not be lucky they may actually catch these individuals and could be harmed!!!! Absolutely prosecute for the safety of others!!!
I’m thankful you caught him, but also have a servants heart for this fellow. God sees the heart and we need to pray for the hearts of thieves to be transformed by the Holy Spirit. Don’t see too many stands like yours anymore. My father n law sold apples out of his orchard in Michigan in the same way for years and never had a problem. He believed in the honor system. May God bless you. ♥️👏✝️☝️🙏🇺🇸
I like how calm yet determined you all are about this aggravating situation.
Poor guy, he needs some time to contemplate and self-reflect.
And, yes, pray.
I hope he gets a place to do that.
It's called County Jail for 1 year!!!
i don't see how there can be down votes on this.
what is disputable about this? this man is a small business owner. he takes pride in this product, and makes it possible for people to enjoy it at the convience of everyone.
selfish behavior ruins it for everyone, fresh maple just tastes better.
Where do you see down votes? I only see the thumbs up. If there are down votes they likely come from people who dislike the Bible quotes and the ask for prayer.
Thank you for standing up for us Roberwittjr1198. We are a small business and love what we do. I'm grateful for your comment. You are the person we wish to attract to our channel. Hope to see you in more comments. Kevin
You are so gracious. I am wishing wonderful things for you and your family.
I'm glad you caught this sick person. How very pathetic that he would do this over and over again. He needs prayers to deliver him. He's obviously messed up with demons. He also needs to pay his debts. God bless.
I’m so sorry that you have had to deal with this. Very sad situation. Thank you for your perseverance and your Christian witness.
The man also had an accomplice. I pray that justice will be served for both offenders. I know a lot of people don't necessarily want to see someone go to jail, but there is a point when you have to remember that this person is not a child. They knew what they were doing and they didn't care about who they were hurting. I pray they will ask for forgiveness from a contrite heart. Forgiveness doesn't mean they shouldn't be disciplined though. I pray that your farm stand will be successful regardless of his crimes.
Ohh my goodness. . Why would someone go this low? Who taught him that this was alright to do?. . Surely I will pray 🙏 for an amicable resolution for both you and him. He is definitely misguided in his heart and soul.
