Operation Foul Ball......where's my helmet?

[karamaxjoe]

A long,long time ago I consigned an Eddie Murray Indians helmet to the infamous North Shore Sports during the big FBI raid on that company. To this day I have yet to see that helmet turn up anywhere and am guessing it's stuck in some evidence warehouse.

I'm very curious to find out if someone on this forum acquired it somehow back in the day. The helmet was from about 1995 and the indian logo was coming loose. Of course if someone has it I woudn't be interested in getting it back since I wrote off that sad story years ago.

Eddie......are you out there?

Mike:
I too had several items seized in the FBI raid on North Shore Sports. And I got all my items back! Several months or maybe even a year passed and I got a phone call from the FBI field office in Charlotte, NC telling me they had my items and where I could go to pick them up at. The FBI in Chicago shipped them down to Charlotte. At the time I was in professional baseball (Minor Leagues) and they stated they had no issue with my items and if I just came by their office I could have them back. So I did, I signed a receipt and off I went.

The local FBI agent made it REALLY clear to me that he had more important things to do than help me. I understand others received items back also, but I never received a call back.
