This story says that motel has been abandoned for over a decade and that is the joint I met Kimmy the soccer mom a few years ago. I met her before it burned the first time. I don't remember when I met her there but it wasn't over 5 years ago. If it was an abandoned motel at the time her room still had power. I wonder if she was one of the homeless when I saw her there. The place didn't look quite right when I saw Kimmy there but it had power. Butta uses the place next door. I think it is a Quality Inn. That IHOP isn't in the best location for sure. I have been wondering about this place since the last couple of times I have been around there I could tell that it burned.

Firefighters say it has attracted homeless people. Investigators believe someone inside the motel started the fire that spread and destroyed the structure.

Obtaining credit card records and surveillance of the parking is easy peasey, it gives the excuse of the police to knock on your door to ask questions, you have the Right and obligation to remain silent, but if your married you know your going to catch some shit. We can all complain about the police about using their time in a more effective way, but that argument doesn't fly. The hobby is illegal, no debate. There are police agencies who are solely dedicated to environmental issues (Trash police) alcohol (fun Police) and gambling. When a spa gets busted, I am. Not surprised,. I am honestly surprised they don't get busted more often, because it seems like most places are 100& sure thing because they need to Excel in customer service. It's clearly a game of cat and mouse.

I guess I'm the exception. They can come to my house and ask whatever questions they want. My wife knows where I am at all times.

YUP. They can't prove a damn thing in court but they can harass you over it.
