Another letter to the editor in today's Laconia Daily Sun.
It would seem that the pawn phop received stolen property and should reimburse the buyer.
Quote:
Kind women who bought & then returned stolen kayak is victim, too
To the editor,
As the victim of one of the recent stolen
kayaks in the Alton are, I wish to thank
D. Jordan for her relentless efforts to
recover our stolen property. I would also
like to express my heartfelt appreciation
to the very kind woman who came forth
and turned the kayak in. It hurts me to
know that she is also a victim, as she
cannot get her money back until the long
process of arrest, prosecution and restitution
are completed.
Unfortunately, because of the character
of the thief, restitution will most
likely be a long time coming. The
person or people responsible for these
thefts probably has a long criminal
history and owes many victims. I hope
he, she or they are soon caught and
that justice is served.
My neighbors and myself are all
hard working people, most of us are
just blue collar folks who enjoy kayaking
on the beautiful lakes of New
Hampshire. We don’t go on expensive
vacations and instead have invested
our money buying kayaks for our
entertainment. It is such a shame
that such uncaring, insensitive people
can take away objects that bring joy to
our children and families.
Again, thanks to those who recovered
our kayak and I hope the others
are soon found.
Barbara & John Tuttle
Alton
