It didn't used to be a felony did it? For some of these older guys? Was
it a felony in the 3o's 40's etc. When did it become a felony?

This is just the tip of what has been going on for years. These thieves should
all be prosecuted at the full extent. To show that this is very serious. I liked
how one of the culprits stated that he didn't know this was a crime. Come
on that is degrading to the federal courts and to the community that helps
protect history for knowledge of later generations.

If someone dug up you Grandmothers grave, took her out of her coffin and took
off the necklace she was buried with, would that change your perspective? Most
of the people being charged here knew exactly what they were doing and had had
significant experience doing these things before. Unless these laws are
enforced, the trade will continue. Complaining that there are greater crimes to
solve is a weak argument. There will always be greater crimes to solve. But,
stealing history from everyone, may only be done once. Yes Virginia, these
people are thieves!
