I am sure they will find him.  The guy doesnt' seem like the brightest bulb.  It sure did take them long enough to send that note out.

Check out WLOS tonight (you can get a live feed on WLOS.com I think).  They've been interviewing victims, they might have the story as early as tonight.  I hope the creep and cohorts get kicked out of hiding with this.

It's too bad people weren't telling them that they ripped off over $1.5 million months ago...It's too bad a large number of us didn't contact all the local news sources didn't tell them there was a problem last year and they could have looked into it then.  That's top-notch reporting to go hand in hand with top notch detective work from the authorities.  I swear this country is set up to aid criminals and punish victims.  Better late than never I guess - if anything becomes of it.  They still haven't charged anyone but Bob.

Thanks Mongo! 
    If the reporter that interviewed me is any indication of the investigators that are looking for Bob....he is home free!
 She actually asked me why he had a mugshot! I responded..." Because he is a predicate FELON"!

 She also asked why I was so mad and then interjected " I don't mean to put words in your mouth"  I told her " you just did"
 On the WLOS site they got Bob's age wrong. Say's he is 26. I email her that his age was not 26. She said I never said it was. I wrote that is what the WLOS site on the internet says. She responded that I should be a reporter and write a book.
 I responded "I'm retired, your the reporter you write the book"

 They did not want to talk about Zak Kampert or Ericka Kampert even though all the money went through her
Credit Union account.    This is a fiasco! Bob..wherever you are...I know your laughing right now!

Guys/Gals do me a favor...Please!  WLOS has a comment page under the Build A Bandit story. Please go there and give them your 2 cents worth! They need to know that this IS a big deal because I don't think they get it.  One of the comments the reporter said to me was that " People get conned all the time" . My reply was " I know that but  at 2.2 million, 15K a pop this con went on for FAR TOO LONG. You guys are focused on one man and there are ALOT more involved"!

 Thanks I appreciate all your efforts

Here's another one: http://www.nbcnews.com/id/52086683#.Ua3KoEBJ408

"Kampert said she did paperwork for McElreath, working as his secretary for a while. "Since I don't know what you're talking about, it's best I not to talk to you," she said before hanging up."

She did paperwork?!?  She had a kid with the thief!  She groomed one of her sons to be just like him.  I guess she left those parts out.  What kind of awful parent knowingly allows their kid to get involved in criminal activity as a young teenager?  I guess the kind that has no problem stealing $2.2 million from people.  What a bunch of low lifes.

The best thing about all of this is that when they go to jail the daughter might have a chance to be raised by someone with morals.

Finally, the word is getting out! I sure hope someone in their area finally calls the police when they see him.

A sargent with the Buncombe Sheriff's Dept said they put out a press release today about McElreath.  Can anyone find it?
