As a sidenote - I have to say that I get a chuckle reading reports of people willing to give up their freedom in America all for money.

Be it a pittance $50,000.00 or $50,000,000.00 they stole. LOL! It just doesn't make sense to me why anyone would jeopardize their freedom, when money is so damm easy to make, and make a lot of legally in America.

So Henry County, GA (where I grew up) is finally good for something. It's about time.

Also, how does one "clone" an automobile? I'm guessing there isn't any gene splicing going on.

Cloning an automobile is easy, you just need plates and a car that is the same as the one from the plates. So if you have Black W201 for example with license plate MER190, you just have to slap the same license plate on another black w201 and you can go commit crime....the cameras will pick the license plate of the get away car and the real owner have to deal with all the $h11t... just one example.....

Serial numbers and or phoney badging affixed to an automobile to make it sell for more at auction. Happens all the time. Getting caught would take some work on the investigators' part. Highly illegal.
