My buddy had his memory card stolen out of his camera. The internal memory was able to capture this guy. Since there was only one set of human tracks this is probably the guy. Does anybody know this guy?

Just some professional advice, you should be careful about how you word your post, as it may or may not be the guy who actually took it. If it turns out this particular person did not break the law, you open yourself up to civil litigation.
I would let the proper authorities give you direction on what course of action can and should be taken. Believe it or not, some districts within forest lands and BLM property deem treestands and cameras left for more than 72 hours as abandoned property and subject to confiscation and/or salvageable property. I found this out the hard way when I had a camera taken that was left for a week. I had no idea about that particular law in my forest district......and I've enforced laws for over 20 years in my area. Contact the BLM Strip District and find out if there's anything they can do. Good luck and hope you get your memory card back.
Where abouts are you? Good chance he may have a cam set up in that same area.

Thats interesting.
No hard feelings, but if anybody ever tried to sue me for something i said on a forum on the net, they'd have a harder fight than they could ever dream about. I have lived with law officer my whole life what i said was perfectly legal. i don't like bringing up other sites, on others sites, but go to
Brett sorry for putting that link here i just wanted these guys to see this, you can remove it if you want.
Thanks,

Having said that, if a person can show the information distributed about him was incorrect and unjust, the poster can be held liable for any damages as a result of the information. Don't go by my word or your roommates.....simply contact a civil attorney and ask. They'll be able to cite a pile of case decisions supporting it.
If this fellow did indeed take the memory card.....simply put, he's wrong. But remember, EVERY person has a right to their day in court before being accused on the internet......if anyone can understand that, it would be Ryan.
It's not a roommate at all, but my father. I'm not some punk kid that doesn't know what I'm talking about. I have a wife and kid and am very respected with everybody i deal with. If you read the first post i wrote it says The internal memory was able to capture this guy. Since there was only one set of human tracks this is probably the guy. NOTICE the word PROBABLY. I am pretty sure i can't get in any legal trouble for that. I have paid for many attorney fee's through business affairs i don't think this guy wants to spend $125 + an hour for an attorney to discuss it with a litigator. It's all good i just hope if he really did do it he gets in trouble for it. Karma is a bugger
Sorry I gave the advice.....you obviously took it the wrong way. I sure hope Tory gets his card back and the issue gets resolved. Hope you have a great season.

If anyone needs PC police it would be you buddy! lol
The guy was obviously wrong for even opening the camera IMO. And didn't seem to care or feel he did anything wrong, which I disagree with. Hopefully some trail cam etiquette can be learned for future reference.
But there is more important things than this, I'd be mad but it's not the end of the world. :)
Nonya relax bud. :))
Sorry if i took it the wrong way. I hope you have a great season as well, kill a big one in Arizona.
Who are you referring to when you mean this "person"??
Stick around brother, I like having you aboard.
