Gnukid, If you listened to the Yachtie net in the morning you would find that this is not the first time this has happened, and they advise people
not to be out in the early hours of the morning with excess cash or walking not in a straight line.
because you are an easy mark.

I HAVE NOT BEEN A VICTIM. THIS IS HAPPENING OFTEN TO OTHER PEOPLE.
Focus readers. Small problem. Kidnapping and Extortion in La Paz.
When it happens don't pay, stay very calm and wait it out, don't say anythig mean or foolish ad when sunrise hits they'll let you go if not sooner.
Memorize names, places and events. Then make a report with the police and pursue it.

Gnukid: Mission Acomplished!
Thanks for the Picture! Did you also get a Picture of the White Building?
If this Thread has come to the Attention of the Press and Authorties like it did when the "Surfers" started Boycotting Rosarita Beach then You and I
have Stirred an Awful Lot Interest in the Peaceful Good City of La Paz.
There are other reports that tell a Different Story. I will not post the information from those reports.
Please go back and look where I stated that the report I received was not "As you related"".
Hint; Go back and check with your Friends about the Occurances Prior to the Police getting involved.
You and your Friends should go to the Governor's Office. Please take a copy of your Report. You will be well received.Skeet/Loreto

Skeet,
I am a simple person, I don't go to clubs or get into trouble but I do keep an eye on my friends. This was a setup of the type known as the "jaimaca
game", a local befriends you and then offers to buy you a drink and a short time later police arrive, lock the doors and extortion begins.
In this case, the manager, the cops, the commandante and many others were complicit in some serious crimes to extort to norteamericanos who are long
time residents. The victims are actually very nice people who are well known and well liked. Other victims include a major developer of projects in La
Paz.
It became immediately clear to the cops involved that they were digging themselves a deep hole. The phones were ringing and commandantes were arguing,
so they each began to turn on each other, finally leaving the two named as responsible.
Clearly, the two policia named are only pawns in a game and many commandantes are complicit in the game which occurs almost every day.
All the government knows about these crimes that happen, and especially of this case, they are not moved to actions because it wont happen to them,
only to norteamericanos.
The only one who can address this is the licensio de investigaccions de coruptos y deliquentos en la policia minesterio in charge of internal
investigations of policia minesterial and he appears to be very afraid to do anything and so that leaves few options except to talk about it,
communicate that we don't want to live like this in La Paz. We must believe that we can live together and support each other. We don't bad cops
hassling good people and it has got to stop.
I have done more than my share for now. The good cops gave the gift of identifying the bad guys now it is up to the internal investigators.
After the election the new presidente will likely just have these two pawns fired but it wont stop the problem.
Its disgusting.

Well can we at least stop the denials and acknowledge that there is a problem that should be addressed with complicity to kidnap and extort
norteamericanos and apparently some of the perps work in teams along with restaurant managers.
Finally, could you all please stop insulting those who report crimes and those who are victims just because you weren't. That is not a logical
progression.

This is all very entertaining and as I have said before GnuKid's stories remind me alot of my oldest son's stories where everything happened to him
and he didn't do anything. I didn't believe it then and I don't buy it now.
Yes, Gnukid I know from your perspective this post isn't helpful, but I just can't get over the fact that you have all of these wild stories that no
one else living in La Paz has and the fact (yes I know you saw it) that none of those involved in all of these stories (not just this one) can post a
single sentence about it. Not even a "yes it is true, it was me and I don't want to identify myself.

Who could be against him for reasons of inaccuracy?
Who, except those who need proof that the sun rises in the east?

That was the last straw. You and pithy commentary are not welcome.
I am reporting firsthand what I saw. When my friends call me I go right away and I know where to find them.
You really have no idea of the circumstance one finds themslevs as victims of crime by corrupt cops in Baja or the fear of retaliation if you stand
and report. Its not easy to stand up and be strong but it is possible. However, one certainly can rely very little on people like you.
Not everyone is capable with computers nor desires to make public statements about crime. If you were kidnapped, assualted and threatened and then
hassled by Nomads would you speak out?
Good bye, you are really not a friend and don't call me to rescue you when you get kidnapped.
