TPM reports that the man who owns a bounty hunting firm tracking Minuteman founder Chris Simcox is himself a former Minuteman, one who has personal beef with Simcox.
Fugitive Recovery Services, is owned by former border vigilante Stacey O’Connell who was booted from the group after fighting with Simcox.
O’Connell was once the director of the Minuteman Civil Defense Corps’ Arizona chapter. He left in 2007 after accusing the Minutemen of misusing and hiding finances, and he has called for a criminal investigation O’Connell said Simcox’s ex-wife hired him. Rumors have it there is more between O’Connell and Alena Simcox than just a business arrangement. Perhaps O’Connell could enlighten our readers on that rumor
TPM goes on to quote O’Connell
“I’m the perfect person that could track him down,” O’Connell told TPM in a phone interview. “I know what his heart’s about, I know what his soul’s about … I know where he hides out on the border.”
There is no warrant out for Simcox. O’Connell muses why Simcox is running from a restraining order: “It’s an embarrassment to him … He also enjoys, is proud of his firearms. he doesn’t want to have those taken away.”
O’Connell said Simcox has been sending him “taunting” texts every day. The bounty hunter said he believes he’s closing in on his quarry.
Now that’s funny. Sending taunting text messages. Wish he’d share them with the public.
The comments on this article on TPM are interesting and some are priceless. It’s obvious there is no love lost for Simcox or for that matter any of the border vigilantes that prowl our border hunting Mexicans.
Here’s a sampling.
“It’s a beautiful thing when wingnuts collide”
“and the saddest part is that Simcox probably sees that one statement there as the beginning of the New World Order take-over of the US
instead of what it actually is…an attempt to disarm a violently dangerous person in a legal manner…
i think we all know how this is going to end…sigh”
“Nominee for best understatement of the year:
“Simcox — who is also an erstwhile Senate candidate and a former adviser to J.D. Hayworth’s Senate campaign — could not be reached for comment.”
“Vote for Chris Simcox, candidate for State Senate and fugitive from Justice!”
(Please leave campaign donations in the bushes behind the telephone pole just before Nogales–US side–Route 19.)
Now there’s a campaign platform!”
“These people are all about not taking responsibility for their lawlessness, because “FREEDOM”. The little bitch Simcox has run off to the desert with his little guns- what a man! So now he’ll kill someone instead of facing the consequences of his own actions; this scumball is a real piece of work.”
Sweet!
