alright! bad guy goes down!

good for you!!!!

I am thrilled to hear that you got your engine back, MTC! As already written, usually that is not the case. That will probably be the best thing that comes out of this however. The Massachusetts courts, in my opinion, have a dismal record for punishing offenders. I have been a police officer for 13 years, and I am sickened by what goes on in the courts of this state each day. Even if this scum has 100+ entries on his record, it will matter very little to most judges. Go to New Hampshire, Florida, Virginia, Michigan and it is a very different story, very different. We are being screwed by our courts. I bet he gets a six month CWOF, one year probation, court costs, blah, blah, blah and from the judge, a very stern "If you come back to my court again...." Whatever, it's a joke.
