Badass, hopefully they found the people that had the stolen gear too!

If they did, remember a civil suit is seperate then a criminal case, you can always sue them for loses, damage, etc.

There was a total of 4 rigs, a bonehead camera helmet, Z1 camera helmet, Canon 10D dig camera, Sony TRV, Sony cyber shot, FAA radio, student radios returned. They did not find my brand new Sony HC36 but thats okay. I at least have my rig back. There are still a lot of items missing but we got back whats important.

The answer to your question, YES!!! There was a total of 4 ppl arrested. Our gear was found in a small apartment in Louisville, KY with a lot of other stuff as well. It was a part of a ring situation.

Were any of them Jumpers?



Now it's "Did any of them used to be jumpers?" cuz there's no way they could show face at a DZ again



NJ...don't worry, I plan on putting their names and faces on here when I get them. Also, there was a lot of stuff that was not ours. If any of you are from the TN, KY, OH, IN area it may belong to you. Just send me a PM and I will help you findout if it is.

Below is the list of items taken from the DZ. (including mine) You will also see that some things are broken down for insurance purposes. But nonetheless, It's still an item taken and had to be paid for. Like I said, there are a lot of items still missing, but at least we got our rigs and some of the cameras back.
To be honest, I never thought I would ever see any of it again.

Congrats, thats fucking awesome. Any idea how they got busted? Did a friendly DZ.commer spot your stuff on ebay, or did the cops have some lead about the case? Any word on the possibility of the items that are still missing? I'm assuming they got sold, but you never know. Glad you got your stuff back and those pricks are getting what's comming to them.

This only further justifies my vehement dislike of Louisville. That city has fucked me too many times, although never on this large a scale.
