I'm in the same boat (sent him money, no response to inquiries for
months), so I talked to the chief of police in Yates Center. He indicates
that the Fredonia address is probably for a farm he rented when he first
moved to KS, but he's since moved into Yates Center.
Jim's financial problems are apparently well known in town (it's a small
town), and the police (there's just one) didn't sound optimistic about our
chances of getting our stuff.
FWIW, I have no interest in pursuing this as a criminal matter, but if
you're out more than $500, that could make it a felony in KS. The chief
offered to ping Jim in person. I'll send an update if I hear anything
back.
