I think that drugs play a big part in these events its unfortunate when u turn on the news and see yor family members and certin of ur other friends that have sopposedly committed these crimes and u think by knowing them how could they do this i want to say on behalf of the people that got robbed of hurt in these incidents i apologize because i know the suspects they have in custody werent raised like that

Thanks for the link Leoghann.

But while the arrests in Dawsonville are certainly good news, I doubt they’re the same guys that robbed Kaleidoscope. I’m pretty sure there are dozens of opportunists that have discovered an easy way to unload this stuff and are robbing stores all over the state. The press has confused the matter by giving these criminals the cutesy name of “blue jean bandits”, which gives the false impression that its the same guys over and over again.

Camille:
This is why you have stayed in business for 7 years in Decatur. Even in the face of adversity, you remain upbeat. You are always nice when folks visit the store, you have a smile on your face and you make everyone feel welcome whether they make a purchase or not.
I hope only good things for you and the young ladies working with you.
You rock!

Camille, thanks so much for writing in. Our hearts go out to you and the girls involved.

I completely agree with you about finding out how these guys are unloading this stuff. I don’t think it would be so rampant if it wasn’t really easy to exchange it for cash. Hopefully the two PDs can get to the bottom of it soon, before they strike again.
