While still wrong and sad, this is not the NPS site at Point Park, but a private tourist attraction next door. Many years ago this electric map was at the base of the mountain and called the Confederama.

I remember going to the Confederama better than 30 years ago. That's really too bad. What nerve! And he even looks in the camera over the cash register. And he'll break up that group and sell it for pennies. Yeah, he needs the book thrown at him.

His face certianly is very clear in the video and I think he will be recognized. Really takes some brass "...." to steal as he did.

Cullen,
Thank you for posting this information.
I sent copies out to several friends of mine to see 'who' they might recognize in the video.
The Investigators may have more info to go on now as a result of this quest.
For those that have information they would like to add to this investigation... please contact me through the e-mail function provided by this forum. I will be more than happy to supply those of you with proper contact info.
In the mean time, lets just wait and see what happens

I put the link to the story and video out on Facebook yesterday as well.

I wonder if the museum has any closeup pictures of the items in that case? May already be on e-bay!
"In the heat of battle it ceases to be an idea for which we fight... or a flag. Rather... we fight for the man on our left and we fight for the man on our right... and when armies have scattered and when the empires fall away... all that remains is the memory
of those precious moments... we spent side by side."
Paul Bennett
Any word on the resolution?
SamVan,
I am in contact with the Detective... nothing just yet.
I will be more than pleased to pass on any info as I can form an ongoing investigation.
Thanks for asking,
Blair
How in the world did that woman behind the counter not notice that he had something under his jacket...the outline of the case is clearly visible. They should start by firing her, then when they find this guy, he should have his hands sawn off.
The spirit of resistance to government is so valuable on certain occasions, that I wish it to be always kept alive. It will often be exercised when wrong but better so than not to be exercised at all. I like a little rebellion now and then. It is like a storm in the atmosphere. – Thomas Jefferson
