We need more people like this, then once DPS realizes that we want them to solve and prevent crimes they might start trying to! this guy is awesome, hopefully others will follow.

What a load of crap. His first mistake was stealing it and his second was not returning it immediately? Then what was trying to sell it on craigslist to not one but TWO different parties?

Get this clown off The Hilltop. EDIT: Oh... and Joe Combs is my hero. No kidding. Wu should familiarize himself with the term "crime of moral turpitude," because (assuming charges are brought and he is convicted) it's going to follow him for the rest of his life. (Just ask Doug Gottleib.) On the bright side, he'll be ineligible for jury duty in many states.

Yeah seriously. Wu looks like a total D-bag in the photo of the deal going down. He deserves to have the book thrown at him and AT LEAST a lengthy suspension from Georgetown.

Joe Coombs has inspried me. Who wants help me catch the Georgetown Cuddler. We'll have a girl leave her door unlocked, have her pretend to be asleep and hide in the closet. When the Cuddler comes in we tackle him. Problem solved. Link to Post - Back to Top   Logged HealyHoya Golden Hoya member is offline Victory!!!

Would have been better if some CSI-type effort was added as well. Can someone put this in the form of a case study, rip off 40-50 copies, three-hole punch, bind and drop off at DOPS?
