I don’t understand how you can have 2 felony convictions for prowling vehicles without being monitored. I’m tired of having these convicted criminals in our neighborhoods going through our cars and yards in the middle of the night.
I wonder how a suspect with 19 warrants is even out of jail? Has he posted bail and gotten out of jail again? It would be interesting to have follow-up info from the police as to disposition of the arrestee.
