Pretty far. I was looking up a story about a woman in SF with one that got stolen to see if she got it back, found this instead:
San Lorenzo woman's missing French bulldog miraculously found 600 miles away in Mexico
Brody the emotional support dog ended up being sold to Benjamin Gonzalez in Tijuana. But being from the Bay Area, friends and family back home recognized Benjamin's new pet because they'd already seen posts for the missing French bulldog all over social media. When the connection was made...

and this:
Another French bulldog stolen, this time in San Jose
The recent theft of Lady Gaga’s French bulldogs has put a spotlight on the dangers of owning the popular breed. This week, a San Jose family had their Frenchie stolen right from their front yard.
It's happening a lot in the UK at the moment. Less guns involved because not America, but yeah...
They're so fucking psychotic that they even tried to get the reward money after the fact. Glad they got caught.
the best chance those dogs had to live were if the criminals were stupid enough to collect the money.
Thank god they were. Because a smart criminal would have killed the dogs and been done with it especially if they had no idea these were famous dogs and were now having way too many eyes on them.
I mean, they really thought they wouldn't be invesitgated when it turned out the woman was dating a gang member? lol

All right where are the ERA folks who lambasted Lady Gaga for offering that no questions asked reward? As if the police would let it go. Eat that crow.
The dogs were returned two days later to an LAPD station by a woman who originally appeared to be "uninvolved and unassociated" with the crime, police initially said. It was not immediately clear if the woman, identified Thursday as 50-year-old Jennifer McBride, received the reward.
thats a crazy coincidence ?
McBride turned out to be in a relationship with the father of one of the suspects, the LAPD said Thursday.thats a crazy coincidence ?
I think maybe you read that wrong.
She was claiming she was uninvolved and unassociated and appeared that way. She was in on it the whole time.
Well I'm more just curious if anyone tried to claim the reward, or if these arrests are the result of purely policework.
If she's dating gang members she probably has a criminal history. Police also keep records of things like known associates and the like.
I'm going to assume it wasn't hard to guess that something wasn't right, right off the bat, when she brought the dogs in. And since it's a shooting investigation she really didn't have an option not to give her info to the police.
I still don't understand why they shot the walker in the chest. They were looking at pretty minor charges until they did that. Dognapping usually isn't a felony.

/facepalm. Yeah apparently I lost that part. Thanks for putting me back on track.
I had to go back and read it as well. At first it was a huge flag for me as a million is a lot of money. The entire thing is sick but shooting the dog walker is a low that I hope none of these people get away from.
Lol, I love how you jump straight to killing the dogs to get away with it. There are, ummm, other options too.
I think maybe you took my post in the wrong way.
I was saying I'm glad this went the way it did when killing the dogs would have been an easy option to take, you end the whole thing right there, no more people involved, no more risks. it's really no different than what happens to children that are abducted, sadly. You get rid of the evidence. Not sure what your problem here is or what's funny exactly. They shot a guy so the dogs were now evidence of a federal crime. Anyway, its gross to even think about.
It's a happy ending, especially since the guy that got shot is going to live.
No, I got you - just thought it was funny. I mean, they're dogs - they're not gonna talk. You could literally let them out the front door and be done, or just keep them inside.
Sure and neighbors see dogs wandering around, cameras pick up something. More people, more eyes. People talk. This is a gang. Word spreads, people rat for cover. Like am I taking crazy pills here? Smart thing is to get rid of the dogs, not adopt them for life?

I cannot laugh hard enough at the absurdity of this.
Yes, officer, I understand I am going to jail, but what about my free boat I was promised?

Even if she did get paid, the dog walker will just then sue her for everything she got, lol.
Well, that's one way to piss away money on a lawyer for a lawsuit you have no chance of winning.
