At any rate we have got to address this problem even if it is a low priority offense. Our patrol deputies can be on the lookout for the bats and other articles that are used. When investigating at the scene we need to collect evidence like wood chips, paint or anything else that would be helpful in identifying them. We can canvass the neighborhood and look for damage to other objects close to the road. If the pole is also damaged then look for some John Deere green or Ford blue. .
Crime stoppers can make special pleas to our school crime stopper programs.
I cannot understand this as being fun, challenging or fulfilling. I think that this is a by-product of some of the pasture keg parties that get all the parents on our case when we bust them. Those that have been in this county for any length of time will attest to the fact that our kids nowadays are much less mischievous than their parents were. Halloween and holidays are nothing compared to what they used to be in this county. They are, however, involved in more serious crime than their prior generation.
