Could you expand on this? Who is LE and who did they arrest someone for and what was the crime?

Sick bastards

Sick !! While I'm not into capital punishment but when it comes to children, these people have no place on this earth .

Aside from the obvious anti social criminal idiots living there -WHERE the heck are local zoning laws.
Those photos IMHO DO NOT show a liveable dwelling.
When I bought my place a number of years ago up there I took many many many loads of junk to the transfer center for disposal.
How long does it take for ALL the fabric and stuffing to completely rot out of a mattress thrown alongside the 'yard' in the woods?
When mowers have their final cut and break why are they left in the yard, on that breakdown spot, for trees to grow around them?
I could go on--aside from a complete gut rehab of the inside the yard rehab took me a couple of years.
In the end it was pretty nice all around.
When riding around and seeing 'things' though I often wondered where the heck is a reasonably enforced local zoning statute concerning unregistered vehicles and general litter-not to mention dozens ( or more) full big green garbage bags thrown a few feet  from the door.
Rant over---

I agree Lucky- 
Something about personal pride perhaps.
There was ONE place like that in a nearby town and one day, when the owner was away -it burned.
Heard the neighbors had complained for years with little to no satisfaction.
AS much as I really like the River area and its people -those places are all to frequent.
Could never understand it.
 
 

Vern definitely has his hands full. Great guy though. I hope he's around for a long time to come. These scum bags are exactly that. And there are folks like this in any demographic there is in this world. Vern definitely has his hands full, but I do agree with policies up around here. Code enforcement and even law enforcement are limited to having access to your residence. Right to privacy is respected around here and most folks like it that way. Let's hope a few don't ruin it for all

I've lived my entire life where having livestock, dirt bikes, race cars, shooting range , raging fires with live bands have been the regular. A junk yard was considered recyclable stock.. things have changed a bit but I welcome the scrapper every spring to clear some space for the garden now and make some free coin.
Not a fan about someone telling me how high my grass is . I'm with db, I like things as they still are . If it leaves my property, then I'm responsible to make amends. If not then it's still my property.

This story is just sad and no place for those actions if factual. There are some in society that are just cruel and no doubt it's a shame. Thankfully something triggered to put a stop .
May peace be eternity found to the victims.

I agree Andy-
Whenever I put stuff out by the road it was gone quickly-anything possibly useful went by the road and all else went to the transfer station.
There IS a difference between keeping things that may be useful later on and a trash heap though and it has nothing to do with being rich or poor.
 

I loved it up there and went as often as possible- 70 to 80 days a year.
Really miss it.
The people- the country- the fish( or not).
Look up at the sky there at night- ya don't see those stars in suburbia.
