I thought they already admitted that's what they were hoping to find, copper? Everyone in these parts, Ky, knows to NOT enter an abandoned coal mine!! There's no reason for it unless your looking to steal!

Good and should.

they went in to steal copper

Could or will

As they should. The resources that were used to rescue them are quite expensive.

Spoiler alert: yes, the tweakers were trying to steal copper. They should have been left there with no rescue, like the guy in the next county over who has been in one for 18 days

This is called cherry pickin'...they screwed up n almost paid the ultimate price....fine 'em, community service...whatever. How about save the big investigations on thugs, pimps, drug dealers...you know who they r. These scum walk our streets with impunity laughing all the way.

“This land is your land, this land is my land.....”

Tweakers will always find a way

Needs to be investigated but glad they are safe thanks to those first responders & the time they took to get them out.

Merry Christmas

Three words: Universal basic income.

Wow, that was an unexpected turn of events!!

😂😂😂 And copper is Cheap right now.

Lmao that is crazy

Copper mine jacking is woke as fuck.

Stop the insanity!

They should have to reimburse the state/county for the cost of search efforts as well.

Keep your mouth shut & ask for a lawyer........ Always

Who would try to steal anything from that dump of a state?

As US life expectancy falls, West Virginia offers lessonsMADISON, W.Va. (AP) — If you want to understand why U.S. life expectancy is declining, West Virginia is a good place to start. The state is a bellwether of bad health, portending major problems years before they became severe nationally. 'It seems that the worst outcomes happen here first,' said Dr. Michael Brumage, a West Virginia University public health expert who formerly ran the health department in Charleston. 'We're the canary in the coal mine.' The drug overdose death rate for all Americans today is where West Virginia's rate was 10 years ago. The nation's suicide rate is where West Virginia's was nearly 20 years ago. Just throw some pharma CEOs with predatory practices in jail and build the damn wall and use tech at entry points with Mexico. Oh god that jpeg makes me want to flee the country to one that doesn't support full-grown man on dwarf porn. WTF were you thinking? You do realize this is fake news?!
