Ridge Runner 1,112 Report post Posted May 18, 2017 Have you heard about the million dollar bee theft ring in Fresno Ca. ? Guess what , it was the guy that had his bees at the end of my pasture last year that caused me so much trouble. Been ridding the ag commissioners butt about this as we reported him last year for not having his boxes marked.the commissioner said they had over 200 bee placements in Tulare county and half of them were not marked so they had no way of telling they were stolen. Problem is ,it is his job to check the boxes as all boxes are required to be marked with company name and phone number,and so are the vehicles tending the bees The boxes were freshly painted with no markings and the very next day the keeper placed bar codes on the boxes supplied by the ag commissioner him self...great job buddy .They stayed behind my house untill the idiot set the pasture on fire with his smoker.

RPM 1,190 Report post Posted May 18, 2017 Well that is certainly good news. But $10,000 bail??? Not too sure Pavel Tveretinov will show up with only a $10k bail amount which cost him $1,000. 1 Ridge Runner reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Midlife 814 Report post Posted May 19, 2017 I remember a thread a while back when RR shipped a hood out and the package contained some bees, but we won't tell the DA, now will we? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shush ...the fine for smuggling bees across state lines is life in prison with no bail and no parole ...unless your an immigrant ,then you are Jerry Browns friend for life and he will pay your fines 1 RPM reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
