Metro-State equipment on ebay

I wasn't exactly sure where to put this (if anywhere) but I figured some may get a good laugh out of it. I found a seller peddling a bunch of ex-Jeremy Dewitte Metro-State warning equipment and apparel on ebay. I feel like most people on this board probably know who he is, but if you don't, here's the quick and dirty:
He's a multi-time felon who started a funeral vehicle escort company in Florida and repeatedly was arrested for impersonating police. He lied about military service. He used a fake ID to get a security license. He told a Florida sheriff's deputy he was a local municipal police officer after being stopped. The list goes on and on. He's also incredibly unashamed of his crimes, even proud in some situations, and often freely admits his guilt. A simple Google or YouTube search will provide tons of videos and documents regarding him. He's pretty infamous in the public safety world.

The seller's name on ebay is "udvogt". I couldn't link to it through the ebay app on my phone, but I've included a quick screenshot.

If the shirts weren't pit-stained and $75 I might bite just for a laugh.

Another seller is offering some of his vehicles. Looks like they still have graphics and they just edited the photo. How they have 250 feedback and 0% positive is beyond me, but that's what it shows.

Great. I see metro state and I’m like I know that name. Read the post and I’ve been watching that idiots videos for 2 years. It’s great to see the difference between him in court and when he’s yelling at people on the street. Now I see his eBay name and I’m like uh oh I just was going through my eBay purchases this afternoon and I see item removed. Check emails to see who and what. udvogt. Click on name. Gone everything no listings no feedback. Probably couldn’t follow eBay rules either Anyway Ibought 2 Whelen split Lin6 500 R/W on June 18. Got here the 24th. Now Ive been reorganizing for the past couple of weeks and just spent an hour trying to find them with no luck. Am positive I got them. Just wanted to retest them. Oh well. Maybe I’ll see if he’s got some new videos out. Lol 8A250FA5-8B36-428A-BF97-A972713BA505.png

From what I know, they base feedback on the last 12 monts. Not having received feedback in the last year makes it zero. The other numbers are because they received feedback more then a year ago.

Something I think we're overlooking here, isn't DimWitte's brother named Dylan Vogt? As in u d vogt when you break down the user name? You know the one who got tangled up in the craigslist sting?

Makes sense because Dylan's last known address was in Ocoee, FL.

True but I had left feedback and all the listings are gone. So they either sold everything over the weekend or were suspended. Makes more sense since my item was removed less than a week after purchasing.

Interesting. Someone by that name (Dylan Vogt) tried to defraud me on eBay a year or two ago. He bought some stuff and a couple months later he filed a claim that the credit card purchase was unauthorized (of course he still had the stuff he bought). That went nowhere - eBay's problem not mine, since they accepted the payment - but it was pretty obviously an attempt at fraud on his part.

He couldn't afford the dream team he needs to get out of it. Maybe he is going to plead insanity. Habitual impersonation.
I'll drink to that.

Not to ressurect an old thread but he's listed a ton of stuff lately. Lots of white lights with "professionally applied" purple tint, as well as a motorcycle or two, made famous in the multitude of arrest videos.

Again with this crap... sigh. I assume professionally purple and tint means they're covering up red or blue with purple film to avoid being illegal?

Does anyone else remember on the old site when Jeremy posted a video of their escorts and got in sooooo many arguments? He was only on for like a week.

I wonder if they bought something cheap just to leave that review. The purple tint appears to be over blue LEDs based on wire color of the heads.

When I saw the first light with "professionally applied tint" I rolled my eyes. Then I saw the sheer number of lights... The biggest Dominator Whelen made, two of them, and all the other lights at ridiculous prices, I said this has to be DeWitte. Guess he needs money...
