Well, they both pled guilty. So now it’s no longer alleged. They are thieves, by their own admission.

Case 11-2633 involving the stolen signs has the following disposition:

· Jordan Keeling—Guilty plea for possession of stolen property

· Robert Espinoza—Guilty plea for possession of stolen property

I don’t have a phone currently and Humboldt Clothing doesn’t have an e-mail address posted on their website. If anyone can contact Humboldt Clothing, I believe this kid also has two very valuable water pipes that were stolen from their store a while back.

Where did that happen? I’d like to verify it.

funny thing is, after Jordan got caught stealing all those signs by the officers, he went on a trip to Oregon and got caught shoplifting a vitamin water. HAHAHAHAHA!

First, no one has been convicted of anything. Maybe it’s all a big misunderstanding! R i g h h h h t t t t …

I’m not sure how you could legally throw someone out of town. My guess is that the normal criminal justice ordeal would be enough for a person who isn’t inherently malevolent to get the message. And if they are, they’re just going to get in more trouble.

Arcata is pretty damn good at catching vandals.

Okay, first things first. The people who stole these signs were, in my opinion, pathetic losers. They should not be in Arcata, let alone HSU. On a slight tangent, if they steal signs from a town, shouldn’t we just kick them out of Arcata? If we just throw them out of school, they’ll still steal stuff after they get out of jail. I’ve found that people who actually brag about stealing stuff (kind of a stupid idea, don’t you think?) don’t learn, because those people are morons.

However, I think it’s despicable to assume it’s the parents’ fault. A parent can try to influence their kids all they want, but if the child is sociopathic, they will be sociopathic. Being a crazy idiot is not genetic, people. Stop pretending as if it is.

“By the way you are great at spinning what other people say to make there arguments seem less valid bravo.”

When you start out with such marvels of rational wisdom as “get a life” and “creep,” it isn’t much of a challenge.

And again, it’s “their,” not “there.”

OK maybe more like a rebellious phase then a moment. Again they have not been proven guilty nor should they be assumed so much unless they are charged(again we live in America)END OF QUESTION…By the way you are great at spinning what other people say to make there arguments seem less valid bravo. Anyways just thought i would share my opinions to bring another view into the equation..thanks for not being overly critical about my thoughts..

“not very well thought out moment”

Moment? Whoever took all those signs committed systematic theft of dozens of signs on a felony scale over a considerable period of time.

“Accessing there facebook and twitter pages and spamming them into submission is just low.”

It’s “their,” not “there.”

Their Facebook and Twitter pages are/were public sources, which was their decision. The things we reported were what they said freely for anyone with a computer to read.

“Seems like you really do enjoy victimizing these young men”

I see. By describing the charges against them and cataloguing the stolen property found in their home.

By your highly rational logic, these guys’ reputations are suffering not from their alleged actions, but the newspaper reporting the allegations and evidence. This is nothing new. Misguided apologists often throw up a lot of dust to take the focus off those who may be responsible, or as you refer to them, “victims.” In your case, with highly courageous anonymity.
