Murphy – Sorrel & White Paint Gelding stolen in San Diego County, California – 1/3/07
-
RECOVERED 4/22/07
My
girlfriend, was showing her reining horse at a local horse show. She
looked over and saw my horse, Murphy. She couldn't believe it!
She called me immediately, we called
the Sheriff's department and were able to get him back. The guy who stole
Murphy didn't enter him in the show, only brought him, no one had any record
of him being there. That's why it is so important for people to look at
horse shows for their stolen horses, you never know where you will find
them!
CONGRATULATIONS TO BARBARA FOR NOT
GIVING UP!
And thank God for luck!

Hi All,
Thanks to the efforts of our
dear BRAVE friend, we were able to locate our stolen horse,
Murphy at the the Del Mar Horse Show today, Sunday.
It was dangerous, the guy had
bragged about having a gun in his truck (the truck that had the horse
trailer hooked behind it that had transported my horse to the show). The
Sheriff's department helped us and I was able to get my horse back by
issuing a "Citizen's Arrest" for the man that stole him. It was an
exhausting, exciting, day.
The interesting thing is that
when the Sheriff asked him to show ownership for Murphy ( I had the
registration paperwork with me, showing ownership in my name with a recent
photograph of him), the guy actually showed the officers registration
paperwork of a sorrel four year old quarter horse MARE (Murphy is a Paint
gelding). However, the Sheriff's department was not familiar with the
registration paperwork for horses and almost accepted the documentation -
but there was a woman officer from the Agriculture department (working at
the fair in their security division) who looked at the paperwork and told
the officers that the paperwork could not possibly be Murphy, due to the
fact that he was a different color, sex, age and breed! !!!!! Quick
thinking on her part!
I then was able to verify my
ownership and of course, the photograph cinched it.
The guy that took Murphy is in
jail for now, but I don't know for how long. I'll keep you posted.....
And thank you , everyone of you
for all of your help and support these past few months.

other info: The person who stole this horse was not known to us prior to the theft. However, he contacted us subsequently and stated to me that the horse was his only "friend" and that he was going to kill himself and the horse so they could be together. I am frantic to locate the horse. The man who stole the horse has been institutionalized in a local mental hospital and it is unknown when he will be released, if at all. The family claims that they do not know where the horse is. We think the horse may be hidden on or near an Indian Reservation in Imperial County, California.
