From the GBU Enterprises Facebook page, they are a local reptile store here in CA:
http://www.facebook.com/notes/gbu-e...-store/felony-crime-committed/251340418214115
Bad News Everyone!!!
Three women came in yesterday, the 9th and stole our big red male beardie, a 3 toed box turtle and a female russian tortoise. Fair warning to the criminals... We have you on video. We have video of the young woman with the brown hair dressed in a green tank top and a really big black purse put both the beardie and russian into her purse and the older heavier woman with lighter brown hair put her small black purse into the turtle's cage and then pick up and put the box turtle into it. If you know these women, or are these women we will be putting said videos on craigslist and facebook and we will give the videos to the newspapers and all the local news stations. Your pictures and deeds will be made public, viewed by EVERYONE and your friends and family will know who and what you are. You have until tomorrow noon to save yourself that embarrassment

they haven't turned themselves in yet, so GBU released the security footage.
Here are links to the videos showing the women stealing animals from GBU.

Why is the camera moving so much? Looks like it's being held by someone.

In the second link the owner states that it's because the video is made up from 8 different cameras mounted on the wall, so when they put it all together it appears that the camera is moving.

Why would they have all 8 cameras on the same wall watching the same spot of the store?
Just seems counter productive to me.

they have 8 cameras for the store, not 8 cameras on one spot... you can see it in the news story I linked. both of the clips are taken from one camera. The actual posted videos are moving, like by handheld, because it's someone taking video of the screen showing the footage, not the actual footage itself being played...

Stolen reptiles returned!
The thieves waited until the store was busy and then left a box and note at the front door of the shop. They returned the animals. Photos at the link:

So does anyone know if they are still pressing charges? That note seemed like a joke. Like she wanted the guy to read it and say "Oh, they had great homes from the peopel who stole them, maybe I should just let her keep them?? Afterall, the beardie does fall alseep on her at night."
Wow good luck to those losers in life!

The letter does sound fake to me. Like they are scared now and hoping the owner doesn't press charges. It shouldn't matter, even if he doesn't want to, with that kind of evidence and using a kid to help distract employees, the state will probably pick up the charges regardless of what the store owner wants. Hopefully the judge sees through the letter and doesn't go lenient because of it.

What was the outcome. Did the ladies(used very loosely) ever get caught?
