A Humboldt County man has spent the holidays in and around Prescott, Ariz., desperately searching for his beloved Mastiffs, Brandy and Max, who were stolen from his property by a nefarious grifter, according to
this story
in
The Daily Courier
.
William “Scooter” Reed and his partner, Robin Moberg, own a non-profit alpaca farm in Loleta — called “Eel River Ranch” — where mentally and physically challenged kids can visit, according to
their Web site
.
Reed told the Ariz. paper that he allowed a woman named Shelby Allen to stay in an RV on his property after she claimed to be “fearful of someone.” She apparently thanked him by absconding with his beautiful beasts in her white Ford F-350.
Allen was caught and thrown into the Camp Verde jail on Dec. 26, thanks to a warrant issued by the Humboldt County Sheriff’s Department, the story says. But her boyfriend reportedly still has the dogs.
Reed is quoted as saying, “I’m a big, tough guy, and here I can’t even talk about it without crying.”

I can’t really understand what sack of shit would go as low as to steal actual dogs. You know, there are some people that tend to stand in front of grocery stores giving dogs away
as opposed to non-actual/fake dogs?
tend to stand? wtf?
take it easy unanny! its just good ol’ venacular in the passive voice!
viz: tend to stand…
translated to proper english….
there are some people who attempt to give dogs away at grocery stores…
happy new year!
Hey whats a grifter?
nice take on passive tense and definitions of tend (to) and attempt.
grift – petty swindling
I am a polled that it is not treated like any other kidnap case and the punishments should be the same as any other kidnap case too.
