NCSO arrests juveniles, solves string of burglaries
by Andy Hoitmann and Sandi Stark
The Nye County Sheriff's Department has put an end to
the latest rash of burglaries that have plagued the Pahrump
Valley in recent weeks.
Beginning with the arrest and confession of a 16 year old
juvenile runaway, NCSO uncovered a burglary ring that
involved nine juveniles and one adult.
According to Sheriff Wade Lieseke, the youths, ranging in
age from 13 to 16 were arrested over the weekend. Sgt. Bob
Redmond broke the case when he discovered a jacket left at
the scene of one of the burglarized residences. Redmond, on
a hunch, brought the jacket to the mother of one of the
juveniles who had been earlier reported as a runaway. The
mother positively identified the jacket. Redmond, with the
assistance of Detective Jim Jenkins found that the string of
burglaries were related.
Upon locating the juvenile near the area of Comstock Park
Friday Night, November 14, officers became involved in a foot
pursuit. The suspect managed to elude capture. He was appre-
hended a short while later at Mountain View Casino and Bowl after
security there was notified by Lieseke that the boy was wanted.
When they noticed him in the casino, NCSO was notified.
The investigation of the case proved to link all of the
burglaries together. Stolen clothes found on two other juve-
niles were determined to have been sold to them by the
suspect in custody. A pair of distinctive knives taken from the
Alley Kat Bazaar were found at the scene of another break-in.
The confession led authorities to eight other juveniles,
including a 13 year old girl who served as a lookout. The
youths were charged with 15 counts of burglary each. Lieseke
said he is urging District Attorney Bob Beckett to check each
juvenile's criminal history and if repeat offenses were evi-
dent, to try them as adults.
"The victims are no less victims because the crimes were
perpetrated by juveniles," Lieseke said. "They are still vic-
tims and the criminal justice system needs to practice justice
for the victims."
In all, 14 different burglaries and one failed attempt have
been connected to the juveniles. Among them are High Desert
Trends, Alley Kat Bazaar, Reading Oasis, Carols Headquar-
ters, Pahrump Florist and Balloon, Shear Talent, Kids Corner,
No To Abuse, Pahrump Valley High School, Rosemary Clark
Middle School, three residences and a failed attempt at
Common Grounds.
This ring sting is the second such bust in a week. NCSO
followed up on earlier mul-
tiple burglaries in the valley
and found many of the stolen
items hidden in a storage shel-
ter on East Street. Lieutenant

property and uncovered the items.
Lieseke said that the bust is expected to clear up 30-40
unsolved burglaries in the valley. He said that anyone who is
missing property is urged to contact the sheriff's department
or the D.A.'s office to seek restitution in the case.
