Here are the facts of the iPhone saga as I know them. I am trying very hard to give the facts only and not opinions or gossip. I would like to move on from this now. Thank you for your support, even criticisms because I have learned some very valuable lessons.

I hosted a party at my house
At the end of the party, I could not locate my iPhone
Friday, October 17th, 2008
I still could not locate my iPhone. My roommate, Jason and Sean all helped me look
I received an email from Nick Starr stating that he left his iPhone at my house
After many Facebook mails back and forth Nick suggested that the iPhones were stolen. He was the first to suggest this to me, not the other way around
Via Twitter and Facebook mail, Nick stated that his friend Ben could be a suspect
I tweeted that I was going to the police to report my iPhone as stolen
11:00PM someone in a dark hoody with the hood over his head came marching towards me and Sean right outside my house just as we were leaving the house
This individual was Nick. He said Melodi informed him that the iPhones were dropped off at my house
I looked in the mailbox just before we left the house (where I tweeted I wanted my iPhone delivered) and they were not there
Nick seemed shocked that the iPhones were not there
Sean and I went to the police station. I reported my iPhone as stolen and mentioned that Nick also claimed his phone was missing

I purchased a new iPhone because I thought I wouldn’t get mine back
Monday, Oct. 20th, 2008
A white plastic bag with my iPhone and a white iPhone showed up in my yard at the bottom of my stairs
My roommate said that she saw that same plastic bag in the corner of our yard near the fence Saturday morning but she thought it was garbage (a lot of garbage blows into our yard)
The downstairs neighbor said she did not place the bag at the bottom of my stairs
Conclusion is that someone threw the bag over my fence on Friday nite. Then somoeone other than myself, my roommate or the neighbor moved the bag Sunday nite towards my door so I would see it
I went to the police and gave them all the evidence including my iPhone and the white iPhone
The police returned my iPhone to me and still have the white iPhone
The police would like for me to pass on to Nick Starr “we are very very interested in you.”

CONGRATS! Moving on is a good choice now.

Again more propaganda. Jesus do you have a single honest and straight forward bone in your body?
I went to the police station after I saw your DM and they asked for the serial number and gave me my phone…no questions asked. They didn’t even check my ID.
Enough of your “they are very, very interested” BS. You are just trying to still stir up drama. Do as you said and drop it.
It is a fact! Angela Baxley was with me and will vouch that the police said that. Also, the police called me to tell me you got the phone and he told me they asked you not to stir up anything further.
So please, take that advice and just leave me alone. I don’t want to talk to you, get comments from you or ever see you again.
I will not be accepting anymore comments on this post.
Thank you
Here vouching.
He, the officer who filed the new report, also explained all the options that Tara had for following up–essentially making your life a living hell.
However, she declined.
Seriously.
Were you able to return the replacement phone??
