Why in the world can't the owner of the towing company have been arrested for grand theft auto?

I work in law enforcement and we get call about this all the time . It even happened to my wife and daughter while they were at a McDonald's eating when they came out there car was gone . I made some calls and found the towing company they tryed to charge me 400 dollers for the tow and storage . When they found out I was a police sergeant they told me there would be no charge . I asked about all the other people that they tow that are eating in McDonald and they tow there cars they told me the people only have a half hour after that they can tow them . I called the owner of that McDonald's and told him what was going on it turned out that the person he had running the place was getting a kickback from the towing company for every car they towed .the owner put a stop to it and I now pull over towing trucks from that company every chances I get Iv handed out quit a few citation to them for diffrent things .

These towing services are liars! They need to be charged with crimes, not just civil suits.

I've seen this before:

A car towed illegally should be considered stolen and the wrecker driver should be charged with felony grand theft auto

If that was my restaurant I would be going to the land lord and filing charges against the land lord for loss of business. The land lord is the one hiring this disgusting tow truck driver.

He's probably evading taxes as well if he wants cash only, no paper trail.

I've seen worse, imagine coming out of your house to go to work in the morning and finding out your brand new truck had been towed out of your driveway because they claimed it was a abandoned derelict.

The city knew about this and let it continue.

grand theft. those towers should all be jailed and the owner sued into poverty.

I had BOTH my vehicles towed from the apartment complex we were living in at the time, simply cuz the live-in manager had a chip on her shoulder regarding us. She was a crazy drunk. She tried taking us to court, but the company that actually owned the property refunded all my money. 😝

Our college apartment complex had issues with residents parking in visitors spots. So they started just towing everyone without checking for ownership stickers. One of the drivers tried to do it on a saturday night. He got the shit beat out of him by a few people. He had a history of doing it so nobody felt bad for him.

hes going to piss off th wrong person stealing their car and $$$, w no witnesses present to save his ass. He deservs a major beat down

All the worthless police would have had to do was arrest the towing operator once for car theft of a diners employees car and they could have put a stop to it.

I had a tow truck driver for a neighbor once, and he loved telling stories that ended with him taking out his tire iron, his pistol, or both, to deal with a tow victim...

Cops and tow companies walk hand in hand. Wealth generating machines.

That guy whose car was damaged should have sued the property owner. If they contracted with Larson's to tow the car, they're just as responsible. Easy win in Small Claims Court.

This is the problem with tow truck companies. They shouldn’t be able arbitrary tow vehicles. Tow truck companies should only be able to tow vehicles on request of property owners and the authorities.

CALL THE COPS --- THEY ARE PROBABLY GETTING A CUT.

Why would the shopping center keep the contract with him?
