    molino jim,
    look at mary in these posts, she lives on this guys block and had no\
    idea she had this kind of neighbor.

    Do you think that just because someone lives in pilgrim hillls they know
    everything that goes on in there.
    Do you think criminals get together in the light of day to plan their robberies
    and parade around in front of cops that they know live in the area?

    These ppl could be good neighbors to the retired cop in there, ever
    hear the expression hold your friends close, and your enemies closer?

    I lived by a guy for years many several years ago and didn’t know he
    pedaled cocaine. When I found out how big a dealer he was, i was
    shocked and couldn’t understand how I had missed it!

    His children ran with my children!
    His wife went to my church!
    She was a kind sweet girl.

    Who knew!

    I live on Sunshine Hill Rd. I am up very early every morning & neither me or my dogs heard anything. Does this guy live on the my road? If so & they know his name, then you would think he would have to return to his home @ some point. It shouldnt be too hard for Escambia’s finest to find him. I hope it is soon i dont like the idea of burgulars in my neighborhood.

    Van was a mid 90’s smaller mini van, didnt see the make of the van but it would be similar to a chevy lumina van from the mid 90’s. A smaller mini van that has a “very pointed ” front of the vehicle

  11. Aunt Chrissy on June 5th, 2010 2:59 pm

    Do you know the make or model Bob??
    so ohh well will know.

  12. barrineau bob on June 5th, 2010 2:53 pm

    the van was a dark green/ greyish van

    doesn’t supprise (sic)— Seeing that I know most of the folks in the Hills I’ve been trying to guess who you are talking about. There are a number of law enforcement people living in that area and I find it hard to understand they would not be aware of what was going on. I do know there is one fellow who has been in jail and now his son was busted for breaking into gas stations at the state line and stealing stuff. I guess he just wanted to follow in his fathers footsteps—crooked as they may be.

    I guess it is always worth a try, but I had always heard hounds had more trouble scenting on days as hot and miserable as we have had lately. Maybe they were hoping the breezes would stir the scent some?

    Anyway.. hope they find the loser and put him away for more than a day or 2

  15. lulu on June 5th, 2010 9:37 am

    NOPE NOT IN MY 60′S SWEETIES!!! ALL I’M SAYING IS YOU ALL ARE PRETTY QUICK TO HANG SOMEONE. WHAT IF IT WAS A CLOSE FRIEND OR RELATIVE OF YOURS? OR WHAT IF THE DOGS WERE LET LOSE YOU???? BET YOU WOULDN’T BE RUNNIN YOUR MOUTHS THEN!!!

  16. oh well on June 5th, 2010 9:16 am

    They said in the article that this guy when last seen had on a red shirt and
    they didn’t get him, but this picture looks alot like a mug shot to me.

    Looks to me like this nice guy has been in trouble with the law before.

  17. oh well on June 5th, 2010 8:43 am

    What color was the van you saw flying down your drive at 2:30 in the AM please.
    I would like to know if it is one that I have seen.

  18. doesn't supprise me on June 5th, 2010 7:16 am

    there are so many druggies and thieves up that way that i’m a bettin
    he ran straight to one of them that he knows and they hid him.

    in pilgrim hills they have a gang of duggies and thieves and they keep a watch out posted at all times to see who goes in and out of there since there is only one way in and one way out.

    Nobody and mean nobody goes in and out of there without their knowledge
    so they will never be caught!

    They have friends in high places and on the sheriffs payroll so they will
    never get caught anyway.

    My point is he may have ran there.

  19. barrineau bob on June 5th, 2010 4:37 am

    Well Somebody tryed breaking into my spare garage at 230 this morning on Barrineau Park School Road. All I saw was the van flying down my driveway. Couldnt see if it was this idiot or not

  20. molinojim on June 4th, 2010 8:18 pm

    chumuckla proud===== just in the prime of her life. I think I remember when I was in my 60’s. SOME TIMES THE NON IMPORTANT THINGS DRIFT AWAY.

  21. Chumuckla Proud on June 4th, 2010 5:58 pm

    Hey John Molino….Chumuckla Proud just wants you to know that SHE is a 66-year-old granny…lol…

  22. z on June 4th, 2010 5:46 pm

    lulu dont think they would have posted him as a suspect unless he was positivly identified.

  23. LULU on June 4th, 2010 5:35 pm

    @lulu that’s only in a court of law

  24. lulu on June 4th, 2010 5:17 pm

    i thought it was innocent until proven gulity

  25. JohnMolino on June 4th, 2010 5:02 pm

    @UD Better Belive it:

    I thought about it, but the fact is, my one dog does not negotiate. Not sure what our Shepherd would do to a trespassing burglar. 75 pounds of Furry Guided Missile. We constantly have to bury animals or toss them into the ditch that she finds on our property. The utility guys and gals know to honk or call before visiting. Our dogs are very protective of our family.

    By the looks of this guy, I doubt he is in good enough shape to climb a tree or make it over the fence in time to save his life.

  26. UD Better Belive it on June 4th, 2010 3:55 pm

    My Dogs went crazy a few minutes ago in the area of Molino Road and Chestnut. I walked around the property for a few minutes with my shotgun, but did not see anything.

    Johnmalino
    You should have cut your dog loose, you never know what he might have treed !!

  27. JohnMolino on June 4th, 2010 3:52 pm

    @Chumuckla Proud :

    Duct Taped from head to toe with a big clowns nose on his mug would be fine.
    If there are any pieces,kindly place them in ziploc baggies.
    Thanks Bro!

  28. molinojim on June 4th, 2010 3:20 pm

    Chumuckla –He would make good gator bait or tie a couple of tire rims to him to help him be able to stay under water and not get shot.

  29. JJ on June 4th, 2010 2:30 pm

    Bad day. All he wanted to ‘borrow’ was a comb and a Gillette razor, and now everyone is hunting him with dogs and shotguns.

  30. Chumuckla Proud on June 4th, 2010 1:48 pm

    We’ll keep an eye out here across the river..never know, he could be a good swimmer! lol If I spot him, do you want him back in one piece?

  31. mel on June 4th, 2010 1:43 pm
