Mcnutt knows who did it, the police know who it is and most importantly the offender knows he did it. Take responsibility for your actions. Be a man and take your punishment.

23 yrs old. 4th of july. 11:45 at nite. gee, i wonder if the 'eviler of two evils' was involved??

From what I have heard, the Milton PD has had several people contact them with the name of the driver, all of whom are giving the same name. At this time they do not have enough "evidence" to arrest the "suspected driver". Sounds like Mr. McNutty will either have to take the heat for it all, or give the MPD the name of the driver.

I also understand (from a city of Milton worker) that the ATV sustained nearly $1000 in damage, hardly minimal and was owned by the caterer at Schilberg Park

hey guys.....maybe the passenger was the driver and hopped in the other seat......lol

Curlrock is in the inner cicle and speaks the truth. Yes, the corn terrorist was abducted by aliens. They hold him now in suspended animation, frozen in enthanol. He is the mysterious unnamed City Manager candidate who involuntarily left the field of candidates while making circles in the field of dreams. The only way we get him back is to place 25 new manhole covers, and 25,000 soiled sandbags and 10 dead carp on the azmuth of the proposed tunnel under Milwaukee Avenue. On the winter solstice, he will be deposited intact, in front of the City Council.

Maybe the driver was doing doughnuts and aliens mistook them from crop circles and came down and abducted him.

If the police have an idea who the driver is, why aren't they putting the heat on that person?

I say call in Horatio Caine. He'll get the confession out of 'em.

Love that plan mooshoo. Keep up the good work

LMAO @ mooshoo

So the "ATV was found abandoned" in a field of damaged corn. So how do they know he was a passenger if it was "abandoned?" Witnesses maybe?

Oliver speaks to me often...most often "in tongues". I heard him say there is much more behind this story. This is the first wave of suicide ATV drivers who are hell bent on destroying the corn crop. If they are successful, the ethanol plant closes. They are also placing underwear on fiberglass cows in order to create panic in the local agricultural community. Our farmers will be so scared that they won't attend the 4H Fair. In order to avoid bankruptcy, the 4H Fair will have to accept the cell tower. This will become the tool to fry the brains of the Janesville residents. Super duper radio waves will emminate from Mars. Those who can will protect themselves with aluminum foil. Those who don't will decide call for a referendum to make A.B., leader of the Briarmoonies, the next City Manager. You all know what will happen if that happens! But its not too late! Take action now! Send McNutt to Gitmo and have the feds waterboard a confession out of him. But it really won't do much good to send him to Gitmo, because when the aliens left Rozwell NM, the took over Gitmo.

Any way you look at it, he had the option of not being in the ATV and he chose to stay in, he had the option of trying to stop the theft and destruction but chose to just ride along.
Either way he is partially responsible for the damage to the corn and should be responsible for his action. Start forking our cash for that cash crop.

Of course to convict him as the driver they would have to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that he was driving. Evidently they can prove that he was on the ATV when it was stolen and when it damaged the field but can't prove he was the driver. It would senseless to charge him as the driver if they can't prove that fact.

Sounds like a conspiracy. Oliver Stone...would you like to comment?

Police can "lie" in interrogations to illicit statements and a confession. However, what is suggested here is to charge him with something they have no proof of. That's quite different. We're talking apples and oranges. Also, I'm not saying the police witnessed him as a passenger, but don't you think it's quite possible that somebody around the beer tent did? That's the witness statement I'm referring to. It doesn't appear the cops saw anything themselves.

The Police have no obligation to tell the truth or be on the up and up when it comes to an investigation. The police can and sometimes will "bend the truth" to check the validity of a story, or to "coerce" a confession. To believe that the police are the highest examples of morality/virtuosity/honesty/integrity is to be naive. When the police say you have the right to remain silent, it's a right that many should exercise but don't. What you don't say cannot hurt you, what you do may...

"Police later found the abandoned ATV with minimal damage, but only after the thieves took it through a cornfield." Abandoned. They didn't see him riding as a passenger. It looks like they have his word and nothing else. So my guess if it was two people they took turns driving. I'l stick with my first statement, charge him with it all. As if the police don't use the tactic all the time.

I'll go out on a limb here and say they have evidence proving he's the passenger, not the driver. Pure speculation, of course. Witness statements? Fingerprints? Shoe Prints?

thinkbeforeyouspeak- He may not be giving up the name of the driver because he was the driver. Why should the police believe that he was the passenger? Because he said so? Perhaps if the police tell him they don't believe he was the passenger and charge him as the driver, he'll give up a name. Seems pretty easy to me.

So, let me get this straight.....You are arguing for the police to be less than honest in their charging of the individual? I suspect you would be one of the first lined up to scream "corruption" on the part of the police if they were to actually do that, and it came to light. We expect our cops to be honest and forthright, let's not suggest they act in any other way. It's their job to figure out who drove the thing, and do that on the up and up.

Charge him as if he was driving. Who says he wasn't? If there is someone else, he will squeal.

You obviously have no choice but to torture the passenger until he gives up the name of the driver.

in a couple of weeks this thousands of dollars worth of corn might be worth millions
