A check for over $25,000 showed up today at the district offices to pay for the replanting of trees. It was presented through an attorney who said he represented the "Friends of Lake Miona".

Read all about it at the on-line news.

And or, did not want to be prosecuted for the crime committed.

Speculating - "they got tired wondering if the law, was going to find out".

Illegally cut down trees to improve both view and home value and escape criminal charges, 25k is pretty cheap for that person.

Finally there will be no more posts related to the trees being cut down!!

The malfeasor(s) are getting off with a deal that is (another) steal! Looks like they took an offer they could not refuse.

So this "donation" was from the Friends of Lake Miona and not from any guilty party? Is the FOLM an organized, incorporated group with more than one objective, and where do they get their funds? Bless them for their generous spirit, but this crime has not been solved, and should be.

Not the sharpest knife in the drawer!

And the beat goes on.
Why not just copy and paste your posts from the other thread?

Could be a PAC of some sort. Or maybe a Knights Templar type of group.

if someone doesn't want to read others opinions, you always have the option of NOT reading them by not clicking on the thread but that would make it difficult to troll

CDD 5 voted unanimously to waive prosecution if the money is received.
