REWARD Offered for the Recovery of Steve "Doc" Betts STOLEN Fender Telecaster Guitar

By: TERESA BREWER

Stealing from a dead man immediately after his death and before his only surviving child and other family members have been notified of his death, is the ultimate betrayal!

That is what happened on the evening of January 1st, shortly after a resident walked by and witnessed artist and blues man, Steven "Doc" Betts, shoot himself, while he sat in his chair on his front porch at 3030 Hwy. 176, in Rockaway Beach on the evening of January 1st.

Later that night, witnesses saw a suspect rumaging through his house who they claim, was run off by law enforcement officials.

Doc's black Fender Telecaster guitar was stolen from his house immediately after his death and long before his family was ever notified. A police report has been filed with RBPD. Calls regarding this matter, have not been returned to the survivors.

I am hereby, offering a reward to whom ever offers information leading to the arrest and conviction of the person responsible for stealing “Doc's” guitar. It rightfully belongs to his daughter Brooke and no one else.

I am asking for your help to get it back to his daughter and to make whomever committed this crime accountable. If you report your knowledge to the police and they do not respond please contact me by privately by email at Teressa.Brewer@gmail.com , or by posting your tip to The People's Press comment section herein. You do not have to give your name to post an anonymous tip. To receive your reward, once the guitar has been recovered, you must email me privately with your information, which will not be disclosed.
