Anonymous tip to Rangers nets reward and arrest.
FORT WORTH, TX Jan. 14, 2009 -- An informant from Van Zandt County received a reward through Texas and Southwestern Cattle Raisers Association’s (TSCRA) Operation Cow Thief, a program to reward those who offer information leading to the arrest and/or grand jury indictment of individuals for theft of livestock or related property.
The informant, who wishes to remain anonymous, provided valuable tips to TSCRA Special Ranger Jim Vanover. Based on the tips, Texas Ranger Brent Davis was able to arrest Richard Allen Graham for theft of livestock by check.
"We have been tracking Mr. Graham for quite some time," Vanover said. "We would not have made the arrest this quickly without the help of the informant."
"This case is another example of the importance of public awareness," Vanover continued. "With the help of the public and Operation Cow Thief, TSCRA Special Rangers are able to stop more criminal activity."
Graham wrote multiple insufficient checks totaling approximately $30,000 to the Winnsboro Livestock Sale. Theft by check of $20,000 but less than $100,000 is classified as a third degree felony and is punishable by up to ten years in prison and/or a fine not to exceed $10,000.
