geez, you would think with the liability these convenience stores have, that they would invest just the tiny bit more money it would cost to get some higher definition surveillance cameras so we can actually see these people and possibly help identify them. This ALWAYS bugs me to no end. It would save time, money and resources if they just spent the very little bit extra to protect themselves.

Is that Geraldo Rivera??? BTW..10:25-I was going to comment in the complete opposite fashion. That isn't a bad photo shot at all {I have to look again, but isn't it also multiple shots-in color?}-if I knew the dude I'd ring him up for the reward dinero in like two seconds.....you obviously aren't familiar with "footage" you would have gotten from a similar type heist in the 70s//80s.

Can I ask you a question, Joe. How come the DSP, MSP, FPD, OCPD & WCSO work hand in hand with you but the SPD does not? You have presented pictures from a very recent robbery yet we haven't seen any images of the guy who shot Ted Shea anywhere in the news.

I hope that Bruce Springsteen doesn't pass through town any time soon. It might be embarrassing.

anonymous 11:46,

I think we ALL know the answer to that question. However, one question I can't answer to is where the image or video is of the suspect in Ted Shea's case.

Reese Bobby, yes, but this isn't the 70s or 80s, is it? We've come a long way in digital imagery since then.

12:20. Hey Dillweed...did this guy break into NORAD or Fort Knox?? How much of a mark-up do you want to pay on your retail mart "Squishee" to get Mars Rover camera type technology. And by the way; if a private retail type mart can provide even this level footage WHY DO WE NOT HAVE ANY IMAGES FROM WHEN MR. SHEA TOOK A FULL CLIP AT A STATE CREDIT UNION ATM YET!!!! Get real.
