    logo_ycsoCamp Verde AZ (August 19, 2018) – Saturday, August 18 around 6:30 PM, YCSO received a call concerning an overdue small plane.  The family member of the plane’s owner indicated they had been trying reach the pilot for several hours without success. Earlier, the pilot indicated he was taking a friend for a short flight in the area around Yavapai County. Local aircraft towers had no record of this plane in the air.

    Eventually, deputies obtained GPS coordinates from a cell phone belonging to one of the occupants. A DPS Ranger crew was launched and aided by the GPS coordinates, located the plane around 8:30pm in a remote area and very rugged terrain southeast of Montezuma Castle, Camp Verde.

    DPS Ranger Troopers set down and confirmed the pilot and his passenger were deceased.  Early Sunday morning, August 19, deputies were finally able to access the site. A representative from the National Transportation Safety Board arrived and was on scene with a YCSO Backcountry team called out to recover the bodies.

    What the hell is going on? Is the fabric of society in the U.S. tearing apart at the seams? Watching those videos of teens gone wild, smashing windows, stealing from shopping centers, laughing while running over bicyclists — an omen of things to come? What can be done? Catch them? Incarcerate them. Put them in jails until they learn enough about crime to come out as skilled criminals? These kids, these young men and women of color, are growing wild in the streets. From fatherless homes, unable to properly read or write, a dismal and destitute future ahead of them. What is going to happen when they reach adulthood? The cops can’t stop them. There are simply too many. They can flash mob a phalanx of cops and just run berserk around them. What are the police to do? Shoot them? Read more→
