I have not insulted you Derek we can get that straight. As a matter of fact I had the image of you and your wife taken down. There are other aspects to this story that I have my own beliefs about. That I choose not to post. Mike is a friend of mine in the same industry so we stick together. If you have spent as much time in and around pool players as I or most of the other people on this forum have you would understand that typically pool players aren't to be trusted any how lol no mAtter who they are. All I ever said was I am disappointed. Because you typically are a nice guy. A little talkative but there is nothing wrong with that.Good luck in life and let all your mistakes be lessons.
Ps. A word of advice. People have short memories. So give it some time and everyone will forget. Unless you keep bringing it up.
Look my name is David Savoie, Derek is my nephew it took me awhile to get him to tell me what happened but I can say for sure he's not proud of the way he acted on here but as far as you wanna be tough guys, I will say this my nephew is no punk yes he is out of shape and myself and his other uncles tell him that but Derek did box, that is neither here nor there. I'm on here for Louisiana Tim aka Tim Jerkins, my nephew did not steal and by the way that court date was set for if he WAS guilty he has been cleared and I am asking as politely and christianly as I can for you and those other clowns that took advantage of him to back off. I live in Jennings Louisiana and I will be more then happy to answer any questions anyone may have. My nephew will not be ganged up on here or any where else anymore. If anyone knew Derek they would know he'd do anything for anybody and he is not a thief, yes he does lie at times and I pray that he quits that asap but he does not steal. I just want him to put this behind him and move on. He will have a support system here for him. But Tim you and I can talk about this anytime my friend or Derek will be more then happy to talk to you. You decide.
Can you please clarify how walking away with 3 cues that do not belong to you is not considered stealing? Thanks in advance.

He finished his statement then left, they told me don't worry this will be resolved, I went to jail as soon as I went in front of the Judge it was dropped she told me as well as the lawyer that there was NO evidence that I had did anything wrong so I was released. Now all of you tough guys who took it upon yourselves to bash me and to harass MY wife have balls and come to me I'd be more then happy to discuss it, I'm no thief and I'll get very violent over this matter, make fun of my weight make fun of my clothes badmouth me all you want just have the guts to do it to my face and we'll see who has the last laugh. I love the game of pool and I've lost that because of this, I've lost a few things but everything happens for a reason. Regardless, I'm not some dumb white trash guy who runs around stealing from people. I work hard and pool was a passion of mine that I inherited from family, I wouldn't pollute the game by stealing especially from a booth with 8-10 security cameras in it. I'm not a coward and I have nothing to hide, that's why I spoke up.

Mike's text below-

Half way across the room I stopped him in front of some APA officials, took the 3 cues back and had him arrested.
The most amazing thing is that we have 8 cameras in our booth. He was caught on several cameras taking the cues and walking out with them.
We rewinded the cameras for the cops, they read him his rights and promptly arrested him.
The 3 cues were a Meucci and 2 poison cues.
Grand larceny due to the values of the cues."
Great Job Mike so glad you got him.

About the only thing I can make out of all this is it seems pretty clear someone is lying. Both these versions cannot be true.
I can vouch for Mike - his word is as good as gold. Anybody want to vouch for Derek?

Well Mr Derek. I Know you pissed but you brought that on yourself. You talking about your love for your wife. I was the first one to see your pic on the internet while we was waiting at the airport. The first thing i did was have one of our teammates text your wife and tell here what was going on. That you had been arrested. I really shouldnt of done that being you are getting a divorce at least that is what you told us in vegas one night unless that is a lie to. You are on camera taking the cues why not just own up to it an quit all the lying the tapes dont lie. I know there is at least 4 other sticks they dont no about that you tried to sell of give away. Just so you know they have already contacted the Dective in Las Vegas to let them know. I agree your wife should have never been brought into this mess because she is suffering from your mistakes. I know there was some cues at the city cup that went missing and somehow ended up in your hands. Your name always comes up when something goes missing. Coming on here and threating people will get u no where. So chill out and get on with your life. I hope you show up for your court date because i would hate to see someone come looking for you because the bond was forfieted.
I'm not only outraged by the person stealing the cues but by dog-piling lynch mobbing that goes on the board. Some people just seem to thrive on these types of threads ..

You are not allowed to bump what you are selling but once every 48 hours. Where are the mods?![]()
Someone mentions NPR and then another poster comes in crying about their criticism while accusing that poster of being a crybaby.
There couldn't be a more perfect example of the NPR sub-forum.
I just got home from Las Vegas. Here are some facts:
On August 20th, 2012 Mr. Derek Savoie was arrested and charged with Grand Larceny for stealing 3 cues at the Riviera Hotel and Casino.
On August 23th, Mr. Savoie pleaded GUILTY in front of Judge Tobiasson, according to Dectetive Zeh of the Clark County Tourism Crime Unit. Mr. Savoie was sentenced by the court and is scheduled to appear in court again on November 28th.
I accept the court's verdict, but I am extremely disappointed in the DA for offering the plea deal that they did to Mr. Savoie WITHOUT consulting me. I was never consulted and would have never agreed to the deal that the DA offered Mr. Savoie. I am not sure if there is any legal rights that I have, but I would like to explore them.
Message to Mr. Savoie, you probably hit the biggest jackpot of your lifetime with whoever it was that prosecuted your case. Somebody upstairs is looking out for you, and I hope you use it to better your life. From reading your posts, I am not certain. I do feel bad for your wife and family as they have nothing to do with this. I would advice you to make good on your end of the deal with the court.
This is one reason why theft is such a hard crime to prosecute. Even though I personally saw with my own two eyes the whole thing -from the moment that Mr. Savoie walked into the booth, took the cue, and left the booth with the cues without paying- it becomes a he said/she said thing. In this instance, I am lucky to have the cameras backed up my claims.
I am not sure if I can have my say in the next court date, November 28th, but if I do, I would certainly be there to have my piece.
P.S: As soon as I have figured out how to edit, copy and post the videos -yes, it's plural-, I will release them to refute what Mr. Savoie had said earlier in this thread.
