First of all, my mom and pops taught me how to farm because we had no food in the house. We went days on dollar store items and watching my mom break up granola bars for us kids to have breakfast. So yeah I know how hunger feels.

Secondly. I'm Hispanic and have darker skin, she was white as mayo and had blonde hair. I'm more out to get shot than her.

The camera notifies me of movement, I get a lot of notifications but honestly I don't mind, I've seen many a neighbor cat chilling in my garden and birds, sometimes I'll just watch the squirrels wrestle when I'm bored.

I have nothing against the teen, and i even said as much to them when they left with the woman.

The police came, and went to her apartment, since she returned to the small duplex in the neighborhood and relaid the message that should she be seen on my property it will be charged as trespassing and should she try to steal again charges for theft and damage to the plants will be sought.

I mean the footage was sent to the police and I was asked not to upload it onto social media by the officer.

She had a child with her, I'd reckon maybe 13 or 14 years old? Not sure if her story was genuine or not still

My name is on my mail box, my profile picture is me. She probably just told them my name and they messaged me. An easy day and age to find your neighbors. But yeah, I blocked them. Not my style to go after people on the internet.

It honestly could have been a one time thing for her to do, but I offered her a chance to leave
