Default Where oh where is Turby?

Just wondering if Turby got off scott free or if he is actually going to do any time for stealing Rolex car?

Oh, and BTW, if any of you don't know what I'm talking about, there was a lister who stole another lister's car.........it seems the thread was banished and deleted from the archives.........at least i can no longer find it.
(My Car Was Stolen, ....by RolexNJ)

so is my search not working properly or is the thread gone?

and if so, what's up with that?

I noticed the same thing, and I was following it closely, but had been off for a while and came back just recently. I heard Rolex auctioned off his car for some low bid... WTF? Did he get all of the parts back or sell the car complete or what? Give me a quick recap, no need to turn this into anything long-winded
What are his current plans then? Going to build another one?

I hope Turby gets what he deserves, but the definition of that is highly dependant on the person defining it

IIRC Rob took a settlement, Insurance auctioned it... another lister got it.

Did Rob ever choose between the two cars he was considering?

What was the assclown's real name? Shouldn't be too hard to find out - court & police records are available by FOIA.
