Don’t blurr them out they deserve to be seen

Maybe if the police actually investigated these thefts people wouldn’t have to take things into their own hands.

I cried. Not only did she dognap a member of this woman’s family but she mistreated him. Glad he’s safe at home.

My mother in law accidentally let my dog out without a leash while we were visiting in Las Vegas. We spent hours searching, posting flyers and even went to the nearby animal shelter, giving them a flyer with his picture and all our contact details. We searched for a few day, close to a week when we got a call from my sister in law. A friend of hers who works at the local animal shelter said my dog was brought in the day before and instead of notifying us the shelter put him in the system and had 2-3 people set up to view and possibly adopt him. We showed up right when they opened demanding our dog and thankfully we got him back. I was so mad at them for trying to sell my dog out from under me like that but apparently they do it all the time.

Criminals shouldn't be blurred so that people will be aware of their faces

I can’t even describe how angry i would be if my dog was stolen from me.

In this day and age, I feel like stealing a dog or almost any pet should be considered kidnapping not grand theft. I challenge anyone to to find a caring and responsible pet owner that considers their animals to be expensive objects.

I felt the same high as the first lady that found her car. I had tools stolen while working at an apartment complex. I knew who the thief was, he had recently bern evicted from the complex. I knew he wouldn't go far from the neighborhood so I drove a search pattern of every street nearby After thirty minutes I found his car, with my tools visible inside! I called the cops. When he walked around the corner with a gas can (he had run out of gas!) and saw the cops and I the look on his face was just priceless!

I’m sorry but if someone stole one of my dogs, there wouldn’t be a “hey that’s my puppy”…

It's a good thing modern technology exists for stuff like this.

stealing pets is just flat out evil

Of course police will warn against how dangerous this is, but won't do a damn thing to find them in the first place. When I was robbed I found out who did it, where my stuff was, and where he was hiding all within a few days. You think the cops would have ever found my stuff? No. Not even a small chance.

Stealing material things is one thing, but there's a hot place in hell for people who steal pets.

Why do we protect the faces of criminals? They’re in public places! Show their faces! They shouldn’t be protected!

The lady who had her dog stolen was very emotional to watch.

This is the future of getting justice. Bold thieves will require bold people to keep from being victimized

Can't believe how "natural" it is for these people to act like they've done nothing wrong with those stolen properties. Either they're sick or just plain evil.

Stealing someone’s dog is so evil. Can’t imagine what that poor pup was thinking during that whole experience. So glad he’s back with his Momma!

I love the first lady who stalked the thief! She yanked her own shoes out of the thief’s hands! Then got all her stuff back! 👏👏👏

Some people took my home on wheels few months ago!!! I will not give up till I find my home and the people that took it! I have nothing to lose now

How infuriating and violating it must feel to watch someone driving YOUR CAR/TRUCK right in front of you. These people have balls and audacity 😒

My great grandma once had a 200 dollar bull stolen from her farm in 1932 in Texas . This woman was 8 months pregnant and only 20 years old . She'd be damned if someone got away with her property. She hunted the thief down for 100 miles on horse back , and got her bull back . My favorite story that she told

My dog has never been stolen, but has ran out a couple times. Luckily we found her not too far down the road and brought her back home🥰.

I'm so glad wasn't no one hurt any of these events but it was very brave of you to get your belongings back you all is very blessed

My husband and son recovered their stolen work truck themselves. A customer came in their shop and just mentioned "hey, I just saw one of you guy over on Everet a minute ago", not knowing the truck was stolen. They jumped into another truck and drove over to Everet street and it was in a driveway with the thief sleeping in it.

It angers me so much when a selfish person steals someone else’s dog! I smiled ear to ear with delight that the dognapper was caught and that a Good Samaritan stepped up and got the dog back for the real owner. Goes to show that sometimes you need to take action to get things done like getting your stolen pets back.

I'm glad everyone had there property back and I'm glad that little dog was back with his family aswell 👍

I absolutely understand how she feels about her dog. I'd go nuts if my pooch was stolen and I definitely cannot be held responsible for what I would do

I cant imagine having any of my animals taken from me. I would literally spend the rest of my life wondering what kind of life they ended up having or if they thought I abandon them. I would die just at the thought of them being mis treated

A woman tried stealing my wallet many years ago when I turned and grabbed her hand. She tried to play victim by yelling rape when I hit her at least 4 timers, knocking her out, ( I think she was out after the first punch but I was enraged at the audacity of her.) later I heard she made a statement. Not sure if the police were aware of her behaviour and dismissed her nonsense. Anyway, here I am.

Well done to these people for taking matters into their own hands! If they had waited for the cops to do their job, they’d probably still be waiting.

We need more people like this in the world that help people find their stolen items

I can’t really blame people for doing this but be careful if you do. If someone took my dog they better hope I never find them.

Why blur them out? Those suspects who stole things should be seen.

To Matthew Santoro: Thanks for helping out a man who confronted someone who stole his wife's car. Kudos to you.

The one with the dog being taken, What a good guy helping a total stranger get her dog back like that.

So the law protects criminals by having their faces blurred and not the victims so they can be targets for revenge. Anyone that commits a crime should have his/her face made public so innocent people can protect themselves from these worthless beings. They should be publicly shamed and humiliated if not more.

Dog napping is a huge business, not just designer dogs, but any dogs. IF YOU LOVE YOUR PET, DON'T EVER LEAVE IT UNATTENDED! NOT FOR ONE MINUTE!

He has the biggest little heart in the tiniest little body ❤❤❤ Way to go Georgies momma for not giving up

That car theft where Matthew Santoro filmed the suspect fleeing, looks like a weird dream that I usually have.

What the heck is Mathew Santoro doing there!? I’m surprised no one else seems to recognize him. He’s the top 5 creepy pasta guy

Stealing wallet/materials, it’s can be replaced. You steal my pet, I will raise all hell!!!!!!!!

“Authorities warn of taking matters like this into your own hands“ If these “Authorities” has taken the matter into their hands, these everyday citizens didn’t have to do that.

I am sooo glad she got her dog back

A dog is not a "thing"! A dog is a family member. A friend. A confidant. Unconditional LOVE...

So satisfying. Bravery. Community coming together to tackle crooks.

Georgie is the cutest dog. I would consider that a case of kidnapping. So glad that guy got involved and got Georgie back.

the police warned about how dangerous it is to retrieve your missing things, but literally asking the cops won't help any either half the time.

I had dog tracker on my dogs collar and the thief threw it away HOWEVER, I sewed one into her harness and when I found her, I dropped kicked her and gave her street justice. AND when ppl realized she stole my dog bc I was hysterically crying- they said she attacked me first. Ppl don’t get that dogs mean everything to ppl. She was given to me to cope with my 9/11 trauma & was my first puppy. My hubs had to pull me off bc I think I would’ve killed her. I hate thieves. They’re low life’s who don’t want to work for anything.

Thankfully no one was hurt and your truck is back with you!

Shoutout to georgie,the sweetest pupper ever

Love this for them!! Wish everyone could be this lucky!!!!!

“Whatever happens in the dark will always come to light.”

I would reconsider trying this myself. It’s dangerous to approach criminals like this, and as valuable as the stolen goods may be, safety is more important.

Nice to see criminals caught.

If somebody steals your dog and your dog is right there in front of you even if they're with the thief. Don't say s*** to them walk up and grab your dog, then tell them that is YOUR dog but don't give them the heads up. I can imagine how exhilarating and intoxicating it is to do what all of these people did and thank you for those who pitched in to help.

The feeling of getting their stuff back and exposing the person must be an amazing emotion

I remember when I was young and my family were 7-Eleven franchisees we would hop in our truck and chase down people that would steal stuff from our store. Was kind of an invigorating experience for a 6 year old. 😂

I love heartwarming stories like this!

Why do people blur out criminals when they do stuff like this? It’s helping to solve a case and then they can get mocked for the rest of their life

Well done matthew santoro, you didn't an amazing job filming the crime. Your subscribers will be most proud of you for that.

Awesomeness. Sometimes taking the law in your own hands does pays off, if she had to wait until the cops wouldve closed this case.. her car most likeley allready was somewhere in the middle east. Im happy for this woman.

Always take these matters into your own hands. The cops might be encouraged to arrive on scene faster to prevent a worse incident and it will discourage other undesirables from stealing. They won't want to go through the increased risk of getting caught.

Georgie has the biggest heart in the tiniest body, aww I felt her love for her pup there, and he loves her right back.

if police took situations more seriously, then ppl wouldn't be taking things into their hand

Why do they blur the faces of criminals like that? These people did it to themselves. Show their faces! They deserve to be seen and recognized for their crimes!

Poor Georgie! 😭 I’m glad for all these ppl!

Awe my heart when the pup went in for a 2nd kiss. Glad he’s back safe and sound with the owner. How can people be so dumb just to steal other peoples pets and also she was being cruel by mistreating the pup. Karma is a B and it will come back 10X worse for her

I restored a 260Z when I was 20, and someone stole it while I was at work at Circuit City. I found it that same day about half a mile down the street because I put a fuel kill switch and a locking gas cap on it, so they thought they ran out of gas.

Why steal a dog? Pathetic criminals. 🤦‍♂️

wow the nerve of that lady. stole her car, her wallet and her shoes.

Wow Just Happy to see Mathew again after years ❤️😘

So happy these ppl found there stuff, thieves think they will get away from everything

Quick thinking always help but staying safe is very important

I love how they reenacted the guy filming the thief out of his car window

Good for all of you guys

People who steal dogs deserve a special place in hell. That’s literally kidnapping a family member…

It's a shame Matthew Santoro isn't a UKpostsr anymore.

This is great! I love it when the good guy gets revenge.

Justice is a beautiful thing ❤

My friends sweet dog was stolen 2 months ago in Michigan. She has cried every day since. She sure could use help from someone like this!

There needs to be a police team in every city that leaves things out with AirTags in them to see who steals them. They would catch thieves on a daily, if not hourly, basis.

Thank you dude 👍🏻

I am glad they got everything back

She stole my heart.

How crazy... The last story happening to one of my neighbors on Next-door and I can tell you that our police DO NOT respond to ANY of our calls. This isn't the first story out of San Jose. This is one of many that don't get air time. People have tracked down their vehicles to homeless encampments.

Police saying people shouldn't take these matters into their own hands has now been disproven by Uvalde. You should absolutely take matters into your own hands.

I'm just amazed the gas station worker was able to overhear AND remember her saying she's going to Apple Bees.

The most infuriating part is that is almost impossible for police to even bother since it takes up valuable time, I mean how do you track down a stolen dog or vehicle?

Happy she got her dog back 👍

Glad Georgie is back home with his true mom. Why would that lady take him if she was going to mistreat him. Thank God he didn’t suffer too badly. And hugs to the guy who fought her for Georgie. When I was about 7 my mom gave me a poodle puppy for Christmas. I still have that image in my head. I was asleep and she put him on my pillow. I still remember being woken up by puppy kisses. Days later it was stolen from our yard. I

😊🎉 that’s amazing. I’m so happy he’s OK.

I remember the video of Matthew Santaro!! That was sooo wholesome😊also it was great these people were able to get their stuff back!

5:20 “fortunately it all worked out.” Uhhhh, if the thief got away it most certain did NOT all work out.” 😠

Great results, especially the little Puppy 🙏❤️

PERFECT AIRTAG COMMERCIAL

Massive respect

I hate the fact they protected the identity of the thieves 🤷🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️ They should be named and shamed 😳

I’m so glad that the dog is okay, I love Frenchies and I hope that lady goes to jail.

Good for you!! Bravo
