I believe the police wouldn't mind putting matter to rest.

I think we need to tread very carefully here.   This is a neighbor and a very prominent member of the community, and he may have a problem which clouded his judgement.   I’m not sure if the police can talk to him and not prosecute.   This could have serious future ramifications.  I’d like to know how contrite he is right now.   Unfortunately alcohol can seriously cloud people’s judgement, and this is a perfect example.

Question was how did that happen, but the morning progressed.  Jerry went to the security footage and looked to see what happened and discovered that this was a break in with a lot of footage of the person that broke the window.  We have around 5 or more minutes of excellent footage of our visitor walking in and out of the kitchen with excellent facial recognition along with the car in our parking lot.  This person opened the refrigerator walked around broke into the liquor cabinet – stole liquor purchased for the Kentucky Derby Party on Saturday and then left.

The police were contacted – this is  misdemeanor theft, not  a felony as all members of our club are allowed to enter the premise at any time with a key.  We need to know if we want to prosecute – do we want the police to attain a search warrant (one bottle of liquor was found at the bottom of the members driveway partly empty) – do we want the police to just talk to this person …and the options go on and on.  If the police go to the house and talk to this person they will never be allowed to be anywhere near our property as part of their probation.
