Lot 26 Hopkins SC 29061 rjlemail@gmail.com 407-616-8903 407-616-8903 I am writing to you because I have an urgent issue that needs some attention please. Back in January of this year I was robbed at gun point by a life criminal named Justin Jenkins. http://www.wistv.com/story/30990167/deputies-shots-fired-between-victim-and-suspect-during-video-store-robbery http://www.wistv.com/story/31022373/surveillance-video-leads-to-armed-robbery-arrest I am a former soldier, former state constable here in South Carolina, lifetime member of the NRA, and a legally concealed carrier. LITERALLY 8 generations of men in my family have served proudly though peace and war time most of which were highly decorated. I endured this criminal putting his 9mm semi-automatic just a few inches from my head and counting down from 10, three different times threatening to blow my head off if I did not get the money box open (which I had absolutely no way of getting open for him). I stalled, played on his ego and pretended to be weak, then when my chance came I drew on him as he was walking me to the back of the store to put a bullet in my head before leaving. I now have pain everyday from where he shot me in my right leg. Oh and by the way, I had exactly 6 chances to kill this man, yet I CHOSE not to. Once he started running from my small hand cannon I just fired behind him to keep him running away from me and out of the store. I had no interest to kill this thug, I felt sorry for his pathetic existence. My problem? The bail hearing for this criminal, I was told about it literally an hour before the hearing. Luckily it was nearby so I could attend. I nicely asked that I be notified for his hearings in a manner that gave me more time to prepare please. His second hearing I was notified LITERALLY 15 minutes before the hearing took place...so I missed it. I haven't heard anything from anyone! The police keep giving me the run around and nobody seems to know anything! Meanwhile WHERE IS MY .45 Cal LAMMA semiautomatic which I LEGALLY carried and DID NOT EVEN SHOOT ANYONE WITH!!! So far I have been treated like the criminal here and I do NOT appreciate it at all! I have contacted SLED, Richland Country SD, Columbia Police Department, NOBODY gives a crap! This weapon not only cost me over $700 but was sold to me by an old vet friend of mine and it CANNOT BE REPLACED! I am SO close to contacting every single news station I can get an ear to about this whole situation and how it was handled. For all I know this jacklegs hearing was already held and I was never even notified to testify! I have been NOTHING but cooperative in this manner. All I ask is how about a little of the respect I deserve, some Professional courtesy, to be treated like the victim I am in this matter, and RETURN ALL MY PERSONAL PROPERTY which has absolutely NO BEARING on this case at ALL! By the way, did I mention that because of the fact I was a cop and able to perfectly identify the criminal he was arrested within a day? And this is the thanks I get... I am the most responsible gun owner and carrier I know. I follow the law to a "T" when it comes to my firearm! It sure would be nice to be treated as such when I actually have to use it! I do not carry a firearm to kill or hurt anyone, I carry it to stay alive! So, in closing I would VERY much appreciate if Gov. Nikki Haley would light a fire under someone "arse" and get my personal property back to me, because at this point I am so angry I am ready to tell my story to every single news outlet that will listen and get the NRA's legal team involved. Enough is enough! I want my chance to speak my piece to this criminal and testify against him AND I deserve to get my personal property back! ALL OF IT. This should have already been done... I have lost a lot of faith in this country of ours I was once so very proud of that I joined to serve myself like the many men in my family before me. You have a chance to restore my faith here Governor Haley, and this is a good ending gun story to boot. I want my property back. Please help me, I cannot replace this weapon from a man who once saved my life and is no longer on this earth...it is worth way more than the $700 it is worth monetarily. Thank you for your time... Sincerely, RJ Levesque, Jr. 611 Harmon Rd. Lot 26 Hopkins, SC 29061 407-616-8903 173.93.203.142
