    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

High End Herps (Inquiry)

Jonathan,

Is there any other reason why you think Tawni (Real name is Brittney btw) is missing? Also, I am curious how and why you spent 2 days with Damon?

Also if you have any other questions there are quite a few others on this board that know more about his past. Feel free to drop me a PM I can probably give you some of their contact info. Also, if you haven't read the Brian Smith tread yet, that is all about Damon Heynen, pre HighendHerps.
 
WOOD COUNTY, TX (KLTV) - The Wood County Sheriff's Office along with the Game Warden, and members of the Caldwell Zoo reptile department are working to safely seize 75-100 large snakes from a property outside of Quitman.

David Beauchemin, 45, was arrested Wednesday afternoon, after authorities discovered an outstanding bench warrant from Allen Parish, LA for failure to appear on 23 counts of Animal Cruelty.

He will be extradited back to Louisiana.

According to officials on the scene, Boa Constrictors, Pythons, and Anacondas are among the many snakes currently being seized from the property.

The Humane Society of North Texas is en route.WOOD COUNTY, TX (KLTV) - The Wood County Sheriff's Office along with the Game Warden, and members of the Caldwell Zoo reptile department are working to safely seize 75-100 large snakes from a property outside of Quitman.

Then you're the only person that actually cares about what happened to her.I don't think you'll see many people shed a tear for either of them.
 
But what? Well your sentence structure is bad. Your grammar is poor, even for a Texan. I find it suspicious that an officer from WCSO would logon as an officer from WCSO then tell us it’s not his real name, a clear violation of the rules on this forum.

Actually it’s not ok, buddy. There have been several imposters logged into this thread and suspensions run high when talking about this person. Especially once they say that the one thing we depend on to identify each other, our name, is a false name.
Oh and most of the cop I know are cops all the time.
 
You admit to using a fake name in an attempt to purge information on an individual. If you are a law man all of these things should be at your disposal and other agencies should have some professional courtesy to help. Coming here with fake names and poking your nose around in such a way does not help your side one bit. You have already broken rules in regards to posting on this site and if you are banned I do not blame the Admin. at all. I would ban you too.
Before you leave, take note I and no one here supports David Beauchemin or who ever he is this week. We detest and despise him for what he has done. He is not the norm in our little sub-culture and lifestyle. People like him are the reason the BOI is in place.
JKLHENDERSON- If you hate snakes so much then why are you involved in this? Why are you even here? This is a site full of reptile lovers. To come on and in the first couple of sentences state how much you hate snakes is a major red flag. You really have no business here other than digging up dirt.

I think it probably best if the moderators do not eject these two that we do not continue any conversations. I seriously doubt one is an officer of the law and the other is an ophidiophobe fishing for information a reptile site. Don't seem right to me. Call me paranoid; but I think I smell vegan AR bunnies in the snake pit. This is something they would love to turn on us and make Beauchemin seem like the average keeper.

Any one taking in these animals to rehab from this POS deserves a hand. They may deserve a can of Provent-a-mite too. Just saying; be sure to quarantine and get vet checks. If you ever saw pictures of the conditions they were in you would know where I'm coming from. I would hate to see someone's collection infected because they did the right thing to help these snakes.
 
he admitted to using a false name, so I removed his posts. This is in the rules:
Rules for Posting on the BOI <-- REQUIRED READING
http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/forums/showthread.php?t=8880
FULL NAMES are required on each posting you make on the BOI. Anyone failing to adhere to this simple rule has subjected their message to possibly being deleted. Anyone using a false name may be subjecting ALL of their messages to possibly being deleted as well has having their account removed from this site upon discovery.

He has not (yet) been banned. He can contact Rich (the site admin) to get his name field corrected if he wishes to continue to post.

ok not defending this person but removing their posts leaves a big hole in the thread. anyone reading it now would be totally confused Why not ban the author but leave the posts and mark the them as written by a banned person.:censored:
I know it's a judgment call but in this case no harm has been done and it would maintain the continuity
 
Michael, you can take it to the feedback forum if you like.
This is getting off topic.
Thank you,

ps - back on topic, glad they finally arrested this guy, let's hope justice will be served.
