In the last year alone our crime stats across the board, except murder and sex crimes (than God) have tripled.... YES TRIPLED....
That is why I continue to harp on security and us all sharing ideas.

With experts and labs busy to their limits, those times did not surprise me at all... I have a murder trial "up coming" that has been "up coming" for about three years... Its not unusual for many lab testing situations to take a very long time...
So I guess to answer your question..........years and yes

No new questions...? Things must be going good out there... Great!!!
My Oak Park neighborhood is very divese... We actually know our neighbor's names... There's Alex, Ronny, Katie, Maria, Scott, Juanita and Ruth... There's also that guy everyone wonders about and the teenagers that like to walk around the neighborhood a little too much... We all have them...
Questions: Do you and your neighbors have each other's cell and/or home phone numbers??? My neighbors see a lot of stuff that I don't...
Do you and you neighbors do anything special to secure that personal space we each call home???

However our pawnshops are open to receiving information from us about stolen items. REMEMBER THE SELLER MUST SIGN SAYING THE PROPERTY IS HIS/HERS AND NOT STOLEN. To sign this untruthfully is a felony crime by itself... That's why if you are a victim of theft and go to the pawn shops, they don't even want to hear about it. Not exactly true... PER THE LAW: If I find a stolen item in a pawn shop, the owner/victim must pay for their own property to get it back BUT they do not pay retail... They only pay what was paid out to the offender... The pawnshop does not make a dime in these situations... Remember - the pawnshop has been LIED to... Bill Saum

Criminals are not known to be to bright.......and drug addicts just don't care. Having said that, the pawn shop owners HAVE to know the usual suspects when they come in trying to pawn something. Common sense is not left at the door.
Do the owners contact you........or do you always have to go to them? Do they ever refuse to take items from known suspects?
I'm to lazy to look up the legal briefs....but seems to be in allot of cases...it's a fine line they are legally walking in allot of cases.
p.s. Did anything come of the "suspected" fake police officer that stopped an individual?
I will answer your last question first... NO - I followed several leads and neither found the person who made the traffice stop nor could I prove that person was NOT AN OFFICER... He could have been one... I wish I could give you a better answer but this is simply the truth.
Pawnshops: I know them all and they all do business within the law as far as I can see... Fine line??? Depends on who view you are looking through... No matter who you are you have the right to do business with a pawn shop... I know pawn shop owner who have had people trespassed from their businesses... Most pawn owners are open books to law enforcement... They are just like you and me - trying to feed a family in a rough and tough economy... As far as I kn ow, NONE of ours will take property in without the seller giving ID and signing that the property is not stolen and they own it...

A lot of the people have gone north... Let's be good neighbors and keep our eyes open... You and I know who lives in that green house across the street... If it aint the kids we see going in through the side window... CALL THE LAW - POLICE 763-5521 AND SHERIFF 763-3117
Times are tough - locks and chains are cheap... Lock your cars, houses, sheds, barns, everything...
The pawnshops are very busy... I have no way of identifying items I find at a pawn shop if my victims do not have their serial numbers or have marked their property in some perminant way... Think think think..... Digital photos are cheap and great to secure serial numbers.. Make a disk just in case the PC gets stolen...

I was born and raised there. Graduated in 1997 from OHS. I grew up in Four Seasons. I went back this past July first time in about 8 years, and practically cried when I seen how much has changed. I could not find very many of the people that I used to be friends with. I had 2 friends that worked for the County and couldn't find any information on them, as in if they were still working for the department. Javier Gonzales* and Rick Deerfee*... Sorry for my mispelling, but it has been years since I have talked to any of them. I was hoping that they were ok. It saddened me severely at the people that I have found out that have passed, that I had no idea about until my visit back home. Coming across this site, and the places that people have written on here, just there "titles" alone, brought back alot of memories that I cannot believe that have slipped my mind. Such as: Playland Park, Whispering Pines, ect ect... Thanks again to everyone that is posting on here, I check in everyday now just to read about something I may know about. Sorry about the recent burglaries down there also... Some people will never learn.. But I also believe in Karma too. Anyway, thanks for the responses... God Bless all... and I am really homesick now..

Wanda,
You are very welcome. So you know, I have lived here since 1980... In 1981 on my birthday, April 24th, I went to work for the City of Okeechobee mowing the parks. Then Police Dispatch, Road Patrol in 1985 and now I have been in the Criminal Investigations Divisions for 14 years... I love this town and its people, well, most of them (LOL)... Thanks for your comments - feelings and honesty... Bill Saum

nope, not a police officer! But my dad, uncle, brother, cousin and my son is, in a sense, he's in the coast guard. And I worked for customs for many years.
The reason this concerns me so much is that most kids, like my daughter are taught to follow a police officers commands. If a car with flashing lights pulled over my daughter, she would not hesitate to do so. We have so many long and dark roads in Okeechobee. If someone is pretending to be a police officer and pulling over young females.....well, there intention is not good at all.
I have always told my girls to slow there speed down, but don't come to a complete stop until they have the police department on the phone.. I know that every police officer would understand this.
By the time you stop, take your keys out of your vehicle, and or get out of your vehicle at the officers request your at the mercy of someone who I can guarantee you has no good intentions.
Good luck finding him! I also had my daughter and all her friends send out the original article on there myspace bulletins.

Florida state law requires children under age 5 to be protected with an approved and properly used child restraint device. For children under 3, Florida law requires that they be in a separate car seat or a car seat that is integrated into the vehicle. For children ages 4 and 5, a separate car seat, integrated car seat or seat belt may be used.
__________________________________
The only reason I am leaning towards this possible not being a true police officer is due to the law I listed above. i find it hard to believe that a police officer would NOT ticket the driver for not having a child who was three ,NOT in a car sat. Child restraint seats and seat belts are a pet peeve of mine. It makes no sense that the officer would not write a ticket for this.
Possible the driver of the vehicle could be brought into the station by the officer handling the case and shown every police office photo that works for the department to see if she could identify the officer.
If after doing this, and she is unable to identify the office, I have no doubt the department has a series of mug shots of those "suspected of possible doing this behavior in the past.

Not a problem... Call the OCSO (Okee Co Sheriff's Dept) at 763-3117... When you call OCSO ask for the # to FHP (Fl Hwy Patrol)... Call them also -ask for a supervisor and then tell them what your need it... Don't worry about giving your name and number, we don't give them out if you ask us not to.

You are correct. They work all state highways... Their office in Ft Pierce or Palm Beach. Anyone wanting that number can call either OPD @ 763-5521 or OCSO @ 763-3117... Call and ask for help with the above problem... Ask for a supervisor...Bill

Thanks for the statement... If you are talking about SR-70 west in the first 11 blocks ending just past the Army Surplus store --- that area is in the city and is our problem...

Yet, there are NEVER any cops out that way, They are all sitting in town eating and catching you doing a little above the bogus 25mph limit, instead of making the real money in tickets on 70. Why are there never any cops there? The only time I see them is when they pass me (I am 15 and do the speed limit) on the way to their houses.

The other choice was closing it but the Chief gave me permission to keep it going using both names and I will take care of it on my own time... Thank for your patience.

I think the only way to change it would be from the administrators of the site, this is just from my experience of running several different forums. You can always start another thread, but then the posts in this one would eventually drop off the board unless the administrator added a sticky to it to keep from it dropping off and could always be referred back too. Just some possible tips to keep it alive.
