The Amp is stolen property but staue of limitations doesn't allow the
police 
to act it becomes a civil matter requiring a lwayer and legal fees &
court 
fees are looking at more than what the thief wants for the amp.

Basically, the police would be violating the offenders rights by
continuing 
to phone him--Can you believe that??????

The following are our e-mails to the person listing the stolen amp. His 
replies to 3 of our e-mails are on e-bay.

This is Salli & Gabriel Butterfield writing. Amp is stolen from us. Wil
C. 
begged to borrow it under pretense he would repair it if he could use it
a 
short time & would get it right back to us. Instead skipped state with
it. 
We have it on film Wil C admitting it was mine. He spoke w/ Salli &
promised 
countless times to ship it back. Then he states he wants money for
repairs 
on it. We told him to give us a figure & receipt & we'd even pay
shipping. 
Of course he never phoned back & when I phoned he hug up on me. We
contacted his brother who stated we should just buy it from Wil C. 
because Wil C. really likes it. He has eluded us. He has also made false

claim that there were 3 Amps when there were only 2 & falsely listed it
as 
all original parts, when he admits to taking it & claims to repairing it
to 
police, so how could this amp have original parts. He was not a friend
of 
Paul's. Dad had distaste for him & had him removed from a club. He has 
stolen this amp from me & I want it back. We have contacted all pawn
shops, 
the Santa Cruz Police & Santa Cruz attorney.

Salli & Gabriel Butterfield again. We have contacted all pawn shops, the

Santa Cruz Police & Santa Cruz attorney. There are two official case
numbers 
regarding this matter. We have also contacted e-Bay Safe Harbor & Fraud 
Dept. All Harp Groups have been posting notices and even groups in
Canada 
are listing notices. this amp is stolen and we should not have to pay
for 
our property. Further that Amp did not have a yellow PB on side of it,
Wil 
C. put that there as the Amp I have has PB stenciled on it.

Salli & Gabe again. We know that Wil C. did not inform you of the detail

that he stole the Amp. This has sentimental value to us as everything of
my 
father's was stolen during his funeral. The family has little to nothing
of 
Dad's. We established "The Paul Butterfield Fund & Society" in honor of
my 
father & this was to be part of the Educational Archival
Collection/Exhibit 
& Wil C knew this. He also knew it was to be part of The Sweet Home
Chicago 
Tour. Out of his greed he has taken advantage of my kindness & tried to 
capitalize off something not his. I hope that you will do the right
thing.

This is Salli, Gabe Butterfield's wife. Before I was even with Gabe I
was 
exclusively managing Gabe & looking into matters of his father's estate.

That Amp was often at my house after gigs & both my daughter & I hauled
that 
Amp. I was opposed to Gabe lending that amp out to Wil C. & did not
believe 
Gabe would ever see it again. My instincts were correct. What Wil C is
doing 
is so very wrong. He has obviously gone over the deep end finding ways
to 
justify his wrong doing. For the privilege of using this Amp for so long

against our wishes, it is the least he could have done was to maintain
the 
Amp he stole from us. Please help right this wrong-this is a heart
wrench 
for Gabe.

Our phone # is 305-304-2226 & our e-mail is
butterfieldsociety@xxxxxxxxxxx 
if you would like to contact us directly. We know you probably were just

enthusiastically helping out a friend, but you should have asked for
more 
specifics--proof of repair, proof of Wil C owning the Amp something...He

lied to us & he lied to you. You can't let him get away with this. Salli
& Gabe

Thank you so much. You have been a dear and we can see that you were 
innocently caught in the middle Thanks to Wil C.  Unfortunately Wil C
will 
not return our phone calls nor will he provide a receipt for repairs. He
has 
yet to even provide a figure of what he spent or what he allegedly did
on 
the Amp. But, like we said for all the time he has had the amp against
our 
wishes he should have been paying us. Guess our biggest mistake was not 
contacting the police sooner.


Thanks to everyone for there support!!!!!
with warmth,
Salli & Gabe
