VIDEO: Greedy Porch Pirate Gets More Than He Bargained for After Walking into Fed-Up Homeowner's Creative Trap​

A porch pirate got more than he bargained for after walking into a creative trap set by a fed-up Queens homeowner on Saturday.
As the New York Post reported, Carlos Mejia was “done” with thieves trying to steal parcels from his doorstep and decided to take matters into his own hands. Last week, he began leaving “decoy packages” outside his door, hoping to catch one of the crooks in the act.
Mejia explained to Storyful that he wanted to “make an example for those out there doing the same thing, stealing from others.”

On Saturday, he got one to bite. Video from Mejia’s home security system shows a young man strolling into his yard, approaching the front steps. He then grabs a box and tries to stuff it into his backpack.
Mejia suddenly storms out of the house with a baseball bat, shocking the suspect.
“Oh, s**t, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, I just didn’t want nobody to take him, bro!” the porch pirate blubbered.
“I don’t give a f**k! Get on your knees!” Mejia yelled.

WATCH:

The footage next shows the thief trying to get away by scaling a fence, but the Mejia yanks him to the ground and holds him until the cops arrive.
The police arrest the porch pirate, later identified as 36-year-old Victor Stazzone. He is seen screaming at the top of his lungs that he needs an ambulance and whining about his hand.
“Officer, what am I being arrested for?” Stazzone cluelessly queries while being placed in handcuffs.

Stazzone was booked on charges of petit larceny, criminal possession of stolen property, and criminal trespass.

In my head I am seeing the next days news story, "The subject returned later that night and threw rocks through all the streetside windows causing thousands of dollars worth of damage..."

For what reason?
The guy doesn't do anything on video that's illegal. Doesn't beat him with the bat or lump him up at all.

So petty larceny, criminal trespass, possession of stolen property. Slap on the wrist and he's back on the streets doing it all over again.

One could claim the homeowner baited the man into committing the crime. Pretty sure, the homeowner will be sued and dragged into court where the legal fees will force him to take drastic measures to remain in ownership of his home. Some crooked attorney will claim enticement, premeditation, etc and make it seem like the poor thief was just going about his business and somehow, some way, the package called out to him 'take me, take me' and he had no other option but to obey the voices in his head. Probably get off with being poor and he had to, was forced to, steal just to make ends meet.

What happened to the guy who made an air system inside an Amazon package that fired out dog poop when opened? Combine those contents with glitter and that dye thats used to mark currency and potentially some of the porch pirates might stop their antics. At least they'd be marked so we can see and smell them and nod slightly knowing they got what they deserve.

As an aside to all this, there is a Youtube channel related to porch pirates, Doorbell News that posts videos of porch pirates and others doing odd things besides attempting to break into homes and stealing packages from the front door area. What comes to mind when watching these videos, is what do the people do with the items they steal if they can't use them in some way? Especially the homeless people or the meth heads. Do they just toss the stuff into a dumpster or what? Some of the items might be to decorate the homeless encampment.

Also, there are a lot of people wandering around out there that could use some professional intervention, monitoring and prescription medication to maybe, big maybe, get them on an even keel so potentially they might not be homeless. Or be sent back to the mental hospital they could have been released from. If the mental hospital, halfway houses, and other facilities aren't all closed.

I'm pretty sure entrapment (enticement) is a legal problem only when the government does it. When a private citizen does it you'd have to argue conspiracy as the crime.

No problems like that in my area. We have the best rednecks any where! Diesel V-8 in big, rusty Ford trucks, big dogs, and a long gun hanging across the window. I'd put 1 in every neighborhood in NYC. No one wants to deal with Bubba Joe. No more crime.

I guarantee, if we put 100 KY Appalachian rednecks on the border it's over for the drug traffickers, cartels, gangs and human smugglers.

Entrapment is a legal term, it does not mean that you set a trap for them or set up the crime

Entrapment is enticing someone to commit a crime who does not already want to commit the crime. Packages are commonly left at homes all over the country every day. If someone sees then then steals the packages they clearly wanted to commit the crime, all on their own.

Entrapment would be setting out a pile of gold or something so valuable that it would entice anyone to consider stealing it.

Offering a drug dealer $10 for a $10 bag of drugs is not entrapment if he sells it, it just shows that he wanted to do it. If you offered someone $20:for a $10 bag of drugs, you could be enticing a user into being a dealer by offering double what the drugs are worth and you enticed someone to commit a crime who did not already want to do it.

I used to put a purse in a car and park in a high scum bag area, like Walmart. I arrested nearly 100 people in two years for stealing the purse. I got 3 on Christmas one year. After seeing the hell my wife went through after a scum bag stole her purse, I had no mercy on thieving scum.

When an honest man walks through a parking lot to go to a store, he is not tempted to become a thief because he sees a purse of radar detector in a car. A POS scum bag thief is because it is what he wants to do. I truly enjoyed arresting them. I even got one guy stealing a bait bicycle from the bike rack at the library who was on probation for stealing the purse from the car.

I got so many of the regulars that I heard them say "I bet that's a set up" as they walked past other cars that were not my bait cars. That proved to me that I was protecting a lot of the public from being the victims of these dirt bags

Or unlawful detention. I'm really surprised they haven't made an example of the homeowner. After all, the rights and privileges of the poor, downtrodden, misunderstood criminal surpasses any of those by law abiding citizens.

couple things >>> doubt very much that the homeowner actually has "$$ felony bait" in that box - homeowner didn't wait long enough for the punk to take full possession much less leave the property with the box - the homeowner actually committed assault & battery on nothing but a trespasser .....

wouldn't be doing anything like that in a Red Red Zone with a GOV protecting the criminals - you'll have a DA filing charges just to bankrupt the homeowner with legal bills $$$ .....

Don't film the incident.... and give them enough TBI that they don't remember what happened or where!

Them boys that lined out the thieving "jogger" down in Georgia were off Scott free until the video was leaked.....
