KC, you and I know nothing of what happened there or how it went down. But I do know this--if they took stuff, and notified LE about it later, then LE no doubt took the stuff off their hands.
I wouldn't call that stealing, and I wouldn't call them thieves.
On the other hand, if they kept the stuff, didn't mention that they had it and just notified LE that there was an illegal camp there, I don't think that's the right thing to do, and I doubt LE would think so either.
Do you?
