Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

I think that prior to nailing someone with criminal intent it would be good to show that the party to the agreement was shipped the item in question (tracking number) and the specifics of the agreement (what was the receiving party supposed to do and when).
I'd like to see the tracking number and emails showing what exactly the parties agreed to.
I'd think that a report to the sheriff that children were allegedly filmed in acts of animal cruelty would be met with at least a phone call, if not a visit, and not shrugged off with an alleged 'we don't want to get involved' answer. While not everyone gets upset about snakes getting killed, a claim that kids were involved and that they were videotaped would I hope raise red flags.

I would do the same with your local ASPCA. They take animal abuse very seriously and do investigations that the police might not otherwise get involved in.

Because of the allegation that children were alleged to have killed snakes and were videotaped doing so, I would send the allegation of phone loss and subsequent allegation of finding it in a school library to the administrative offices of the local public school system, and to the local child protective services, and to the local animal control.
In this day and age where email contact is possible with many organizations a broad swathe of publicity can work to either solve a genuine issue, or bring unwanted publicity to those who seek to shield themselves from action by creating false stories. Those who made allegations that involve children or school libraries can hardly complain of subsequent official involvement, it is not harassment, reports to authorities are justified to protect children and critters.

Someone helped out a ton and snapped some pics of him at the reptile show in Iowa this last weekend. Notice the knobby knuckles on his hand. Looks just like the hand holding the "bloody" snake bag.
I won't say who took the pics, but this is very helpful and appreciated. He lied about where he was from to the people at the show, too. Not sure why, but he did.
Also, Dakota Runde claimed that he had purchased the blackheads from Mark Petros at Tinley last year. I asked Mark about it and he responded:

Here is the latest text from Nick/Dakota. I have quite a few pages of texts from this individual, most of which are not relevant but here are few that are. They clearly show his character. Sorry for my lousy texting skills..large finger and small screen really don't make for a good combo.
