Boy, the SFPD is going to be up feces creek after this story. In short, a man discovered who had been defrauding him through his stolen credit cards, and couldn’t get police cooperation to help nab him. I’m not in favor of vigilantiism, but I think Lokeren gave the police every chance to do their job and had no other options. This has movie of the week written all over it!
The SFPD is going to catch heat for this but it’s the self styled bounty hunter who could face more problems. I’m not passing judgement on doing “the right thing” but he’s in a scary gray area. If he doesn’ t have to defend himself against a nuciance lawsuit I’ll be suprised. Sad when a city police department can’t follow up on property crime but that’s reality in Phoenix too.
