    Yavapai County SheriffSedona AZ (December 21, 2011) – Yesterday afternoon, YCSO detectives from the Criminal Investigations Bureau served a search warrant in the 5100 block of S. Mill Avenue, Tempe, Arizona. A suspect, identified as 33-year-old Oshin Thomas, was arrested in an apartment on Mill Avenue for the Sedona burglary. In recent days, detectives developed information linking Thomas to the theft based on a prior business relationship with the victim and evidence obtained during the investigation. While in Tempe, detectives learned Thomas had buried some of the stolen property in a remote desert area. Detectives eventually located the hole and recovered 4 boxes containing some of the stolen silver.

    Today, detectives continue their work to find remaining stolen silver and gold hidden in Arizona and California locations. Detectives expect to recover a majority of the stolen property which has a total estimated value exceeding $600,000 dollars.

    Updates are expected as the investigation continues.

    Sedona AZ (December 18, 2011) – On December 9, 2011, just before 8 PM, Yavapai County Sheriff’s Office deputies were called to the 11500 block of Boynton Pass Road in Sedona regarding a residential burglary. Upon arrival, deputies met with the resident who was waiting outside after finding glass in a back door had been smashed out. She had left her home around 2:30 PM the same day and all doors were secured. Believing someone may still be inside, she waited with a neighbor until deputies could safely clear the home. No suspects were found and the victim began checking to determine if any property had been stolen. Although the house was not obviously ransacked, the victim did notice a storage room door had been pried open and gold and silver pieces valued in the thousands were gone.

    The Symbolism of Jan. 6

    By Tommy Acosta
    Don’t mess with symbols. Just ask author Dan Brown’s character Robert Landon. The worth of symbols cannot be measured. Symbols make the world-go-round. Symbols carry the weight of a thousand words and meanings. Symbols represent reality boiled down to the bone. Symbols evoke profound emotions and memories—at a very primal level of our being—often without our making rational or conscious connections. They fuel our imagination. Symbols enable us to access aspects of our existence that cannot be accessed in any other way. Symbols are used in all facets of human endeavor. One can only feel sorry for those who cannot comprehend the government’s response to the breech of the capital on January 6, with many, even pundits, claiming it was only a peaceful occupation. Regardless if one sees January 6 as a full-scale riot/insurrection or simply patriotic Americans demonstrating as is their right, the fact is the individuals involved went against a symbol, and this could not be allowed or go unpunished.
