    Here is the BOI thread in progress regarding the ongoing issues BPNet staff have been finding.

    http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/foru...d.php?t=117501

    So far we have Jack Spears and Jacob Rollins now associated with the whole LAWReptiles mess as well as numerous provable instances of stolen pictures from various breeder sites (some with the watermark removed). The BOI thread will be updated as more evidence is unearthed.

    I would be very careful of the shows you attend in Ohio and the surrounding area, as this person and all "its" aliases all trace back pretty much to the Dayton, OH area.

    Great job to the staff and also to Eddie for bringing it to their attention. This is an excellent example of the community coming together to expose a scammer and it should serve as a warning to those who may try use the site to run scams that they are being closely watched.

    He stole pictures from Ralph Davis, who did have a logo on the picture. Watermarking over the substance of the picture might make it harder for them to steal the pictures.

    Go BP.net guys! Who needs CSI when we gots our own Grissoms right here! Thank you!

    I've been reading about LAW and his aliases for a while now on Fauna. This guy clearly has stolen some peoples snakes, and has them in his possession.

    Is there any way that actual law can come into play and these people can get their animals back and this man can go to jail or at least fined?

    I personally think that he should never be allowed to trade/own animals ever again. Or sell anything for that matter. :mad:
