) - Two Georgia men next month will answer allegations that they illegally purchased catalytic converters in the first local use of a new law designed to stamp out the black market for the devices.
“The purpose of it is to try and address the epidemic of catalytic converter thefts,” said Mobile County Assistant District Attorney Clay Rossi. “There’s extensive documentation called for by the statute to try and curb illegal possession and the stealing of catalytic converters,” said Rossi, who heads the white-collar crime section of the District Attorney’s Office.
Few dispute that catalytic converter thefts have become more common, fueled by high prices for metals contained in the devices. A theft can cost car owners hundreds of dollars a pop. Byrd said the man who sold his clients the catalytic converters arranged a meeting in a field. That violate the law, which requires such transaction to take place at a business location. He said that and other provisions of the law tripped up his clients, but he added that they believed they were complying with the law.
