HI DOUG,
NOT A GOOD WAY TO START OFF IN LIFE
SOMETIMES PEOPLE CHANGE FOR THE BETTER, MOST GET WORSE..
ONE
OF MY CAR THEFT STORIES:
A
FEW YEARS AGO EDDIE GARCIA "THE BINGO KING" OF SAN ANTONIO HAD A USED
SURBURBAN STOLEN. HE HAD JUST BOUGHT IT FROM A SERVING CONGRESSMAN.
EDDIE'S WALLET WITH CASH AND CARDS WAS IN THE GLOVE BOX AS WAS THE
POLITICOS' INSURANCE PAPERS. TWO DAYS LATER THE VEHICLE APPEARED AT
HIS OFFICE WASHED AND POLISHED WITH ALL CONTENTS INTACT.
POSSIBLY BECAUSE THEY REPORTEDLY HAD A BUSINESS ACQUAINTANCE WHO
REPORTEDLY WORKED WITH THE MARCELLO BROTHERS OF NEW ORLEANS, WELL KNOWN
TOMATO WHOLESALERS? THEIR LATE FRIEND, PEOPLE SAY, HAD SO MANY PERSONS
STEP OUT OF HIS AIRPLANE OVER THE LOUISIANNA SWAMPS THAT THE RESIDENT
ALLIGATORS KNEW THE TAIL
NUMBERS!
ANOTHER BIT OF SOUTH TEXAS FOLKLORE!
CIAO!

Picture this - 1978, 3:00 a.m. on a school
night. I'm living in Novato, CA, about 35 miles north of
Burlingame, just south of San Francisco. I get a call - do you own a
tan '66 VW sedan? yeah, (thru the haze) - did you loan it to
anyone? Uh, no, but I have a few questions for you - who is
this, what time is it, and why are you asking? This is the
Burlingame police, it's 3:00 in the morning and we have your car here
with four teenagers. Call your local police and file a complaint
- here are their names - blah, blah, blah, and Blah.
Novato police come - I tell them that blah,
blah, and - - - - One officer interrupts me and gives me the other two
names. Hmmmmmm.
Two 16 y/o girls, one 17 y/o male and
one 18 y/o male. They hot wired the car and were joy riding
about. Police said they stopped them for a "tail light"
violation. At the hearing - the fathers of the two girls were
busy doing paper work (no cell phones or computers then) and hardly
paid any attention to the proceedings. The young male was not
represented that I could see. Later in S.F. court, the 18 male
perp was shackled and trudged out - ordered to make restitution for
damages (window and headliner) and time served. I did get a
check for the full amount.
The notorious little joy riders are now about 50
years old. Wonder what ever happened to them - - wonder if they
are alive?
