You must understand that the guy was not charged with any crime. If the bike owner posts his name and implies that he is a "bike thief" he can be sued for slander. Not to mention what would happen if some well meaning but misguided individual were to harm the thief in any way after his info was posted. BTW I'm not saying that this didn't happen BUT what if this were just some hoax to get back at this kid? I mean, I have pictures of Trip. I could post a pic of him on various forums saying that he gave my sister AIDS, for example.... Who's to stop me? Again, I'm not saying that this isn't real but I am surprised that all of you skeptics are jumping on board with out any questions....

That's kinda where I was going, actually. Someone is gonna get hold of this dude's identity and go all ape shit on him. I'd rather see his ass prosecuted and him thrown in jail. Maybe (if what happened actually happened) that'll stop future theft attempts.

I hope someone finds out what he's majoring in and what companies he interviews with, and sends them the facebook link with the message "trustworthy? you decide"

So if you try to take my bike its perfectly OK, but if its a car and you just sit in it you most likely would be throw under the jail for grand theft, or attempted grand theft.

wonder if breaking my foot off in his ass would bring charges again me or not?

Everyone is guilty of something; some are just better at hiding it than others.
