I want to thank everyone who has shown so much incredible support in helping us catch the thieves from the Crystal Festival last Sunday! We had names turned in as well as addresses and other scams they were possibly involved in. We also had other people report they also have had items stolen by this duo including Utah Rock Shops and other gem shows. With the incredible amount of information turned in this case had been turned over to a detective and they said they will keep reading comments and looking at the tips as well as the additional reports of theft. The detective is going to follow up with the people they believe are involved. I will post an update when or if there is more information.
In the mean time I need to say thank you! The outpour of love and support from the entire community. Ogden locals, our rockhounds, our friends, and even those I had no idea would care. The love and support has been deeply moving. I could not be anymore grateful. The support felt this week has been worth more than the rocks ever could be. Thank you! 💜
I hope to see you all at the Sandy Crystal Festival - A Rock, Mineral, Gem, & Crystal Show for hugs, rocks, and fun. Please stop by even if just to hang out, we have the world’s best community of rockhounds and we appreciate each and every one of you!
