However, if you intentionally took them, which I highly suspect
happened, then shame on you. As a survivor of violent crime in 1992, I
can honestly say that this experience of having my skis stolen pales
little in comparison. I find myself hurt, angry and saddened that we
live in this wonderful, supportive Valley where crime, property and
violent crime has and does continue to occur. I find it interesting
that at Town Meeting today, I spoke out on the need to have adequately
trained law enforcement coverage during vulnerable hours and in the
very same day I become the victim of a property crime.
This mere act and other similar acts just prove to me once again that
our failing economy, the lack of proper law enforcement and the lack of
other crime preventive measures has caused the crime rate to rise and
no one is immune from crime.
I want to thank Mad River Glen management and especially the rental
shop for helping me out and providing me with some rentals so I could
at least get out and ski a few runs. Thank you to Trooper Lucas,
Vermont State Police, who responded immediately to my call.
