<p>Holy crap, what a despicable human being. My heart goes out to all the people who've had to deal with this POS over the years and were victimized by his extremely aggressive and sociopathic behaviors toward others. This guy belongs locked up in a mental ward as he obviously can't be trusted around civilized people. He behaves like an animal -a predatory animal.</p>

<p>Unfortunately he is a foreign national so he'll probably get off with a lighter sentence and eventually maybe simply deported. He'll probably just end up re-immigrating under the radar only to set up shop again to prey on others all over again. Or maybe back in china if he ends up in their criminal justice system they'll turn him into spare organs. Perhaps deporting him would be a death sentence. </p>

As Paul stated, they now believe Mr. Liu was a thief and possibly a fence, but there are multiple rooms at the 19th FILLED with what they believe is stolen merchandise. Search warrants for two more storage lockers are being served today, so there will likely be even more stuff to go with the 104 bikes, 60 or so strollers and 50+ sets of golf clubs. The CPD plans to issue a press release tomorrow. Public viewing next week from ~8am-6pm. I got an inventory of the stolen bikes, and we'll see if we can't match some up with the CSBR. </p>
