Last year I hauled my boat to do some work, while on the hard my 2 Garmin screens of the bridge were stolen in a yard with security. The crime unit that worked the Miami River investigated, the detective knew my adopted sun who works for the same department. He didn’t want to be quoted but they average crimes like this numerous times a week and by the time the crime was reported the units were on board a ship headed south. Once on the ship there is nothing they can do about it.
It’s incredibly frustrating. I remember when it happened, I felt a mix of anger and helplessness. It really puts into perspective how rampant these thefts are and how organized these criminals must be. It also makes me think about the broader issue of boat and equipment theft in the Miami area.
I came across an interesting website that delves into various essays and examples, which might shed some light on these kinds of thefts. If anyone's interested in reading more about crime and its implications, check out this Crime essay at
