I never wanted this **** to hit the news. I never contacted local news stations about this. It's ****ing stupid. There are things more important happening that don't make it on the front page of a newspaper or even out of this state as far as media goes. The only people that knew about this was myself, the sender, Fedex and local law enforcement. Media is making a big deal out of something PETTY. They only want to put fear in people and what better way to start by using TARANTULAS as a source. It's complete and utter BULL****.

I wonder who leaked it? Bet it was the police, they are known for doing that.
I hope they really put some effort in to catching the lowlife responsible and returning them to you.

That's exactly who. The initial anchor came and told me (when I asked) that they receive all police reports (supposedly those that are available to public are forwarded to them). Then they went from there......

@Casey K. I'm so sorry, I do hope they're found safe.
I know how you must feel having been in a similar situation when one of my 3' Dwarf Boas escaped and a neighbour found it on her drive. She came and told me and it was safely collected but she had to send a photo to the press with all my details.

Thank you, Enn. My main concern are the tarantulas. I'm certain that whoever has/had it realizes it's probably not what they thought it would be. Lesson learned. Should've ordered a few damn Brazilian wonderer's..... }:-]
I know what your saying. When I had my motorbike stolen I was hoping to see a news report of someone being killed by coming off my stolen bike , would be nice to see a report of someone being emitted to hospital after unexpectedly opening a stolen package of tarantulas and taking a bite.

@Casey K. They may turn up ok, fingers crossed but I bet they got a shock if they opened the parcel.

I kind of wonder if the thieves knew what they were taking or were they surprised when they opened it.
Tbh, the way Fedex has acted during all of this, I wouldn't doubt that it was a mishap on their end.
I had 2 £8000 motorbikes stolen within 18 months so tbh I wished death on someone , but obviously a bite from a T to someone who was unaware would put you in hospital. Would be nice to see
