That is an outrage! It is, at the worst, petty theft and punishable in a court of law. If a parent could trace a missing item to eBay and report it to the authorities it would be another nail in the coffin of Thayer.
Yes, I realize filing charges against Thayer in Caldwell County would be extremely difficult, but maybe those parents who saved their children could band together to claim lost, missing and or stolen property.
Contact Pia, she can tell you how it can be done.
