My mood explained:
Like some of you know, my bf was (as photographer) in September on a tour with 2 bands through South-America. Back in the Netherlands, in the train home, his camera gear and macbook were stolen.
A few days later we found the macbook for sale on a dutch marketplace site (ja, marktplaats.nl), as we were certain it was his (little but unique damage was visible on the product photo, and a pretty specific sleeve was sold with it) we contacted the police. Since we could say that certain it was my bf's, they got all kinds of extra privileges to investigate and get him.
One of the guys on the case contacted him to see the macbook before 'buying' it. The bastard didn't want to do the selling at his home (which people normally do on that site) so they decided to meet in a Burger King (in Amsterdam). The police guy (in civilian clothes) saw that the macbook had indeed the damage my bf described, and checked the id-number which we gave them too, and it was the same. So he went to the toilet and all these other policeman in normal clothes got their guns and arrested the bastard in the middle of the Burger King. xD
They could hold him for at least two weeks to do investigation stuff, which is long. But as I said, they could do a lot of special stuff in this case, the 2 policeman normally stationed in my town were pretty excited and had a lot of fun working on it. I believe they spent 3 days of 18 hours on the spot to prepare stuff and get everything done. :o
Anyway, when the two policeman got back in Groningen and gave us the macbook back, we of course discovered all the photos of the tour were deleted when the bastard installed a dutch version of OSx. >:(
What he did forget to delete was all the photos and movies he made of himself when he had fun with the macbook's webcam.. Aaaand, pidgin automatically logged into his msn address where we found a conversation of him with someone in Portuguese or something and there was also access to mail addresses of his friends. Seriously, how dumb can you be as criminal....
The dutch version of the FBI then copied the complete harddisc, for the evidence, and they're going to try to recover the photos as well. I hope they will succeed, my bf get's a lot of corrupted files when trying to recover it (only a few got back completely). We didn't hear from them yet though. *crosses fingers*
Tomorrow the bastard will be in court. We heard he got a huuuge file with stuff he did and what he will be charged for.
We hope to get money from him, around 11.000 euro for the gear & photos. We had to fill out forms and collect as much evidence we could and stuff like that, which took us all week as it's a shitload of work that had to be done correctly and official etc. >.<
It's still a small chance we get any though, cause he isn't the thief but just the guy that sold the macbook, and you can't get money from those. ._. (something to do with the original cause of the damage, which was made by the thief and not the one who's selling) In the chaos he's getting charged for the theft as well though..
The trial will be at 9 AM in another town, so we have to take the 7 o'clock train tomorrow ugh. *doesn't like getting up early* >.> <.<
But we have to be there a bit early to give the judge our claim, so meh.
I'm tired of typing now, so Berlin stories will (might >.>) be told later. :P (it was AWESOME though!) :D
I'm going to Berlin tomorrow. My bf, who's already there, will pick me up from der Bahnhof, and we will go see some opera in the following days! Hopefully we're able to see Die Fledermaus and Tristan und Isolde. I've never seen any opera before, nor have I ever been to Berlin, so I'm quite excited about it. I have to get up terribly early, so I can travel with a cheapskate train ticket all day. (it will take 12 hours, which is ridiculous as it's only 572 km - 5 hours, 16 minutes with a car) D:
Anyway, I'm going to pack some things, see y'all next week! <3
Oh, and I've got a sewing machine! I got the old one my mother still had, it's utter love! :D
When I was going to make some clothes for my bear at my mom's (see nehirwens bear project) I saw their cat was being very tidy. She put herself away in the closet!
And later on she came out of the closet! :O
After that we went for a bike ride (it was awesomely warm), and I saw for the first time ever a great white egret (Great Egret)! They are really rare around here. Pity I couldn't get closer for a photo, this is what I could make of it. x)
It was a nice day. :]
