The feds will "allow" the local authorities to pursue on state charges.
The crust of it is, they feds are just too busy to pursue. Their emphasis, passed down from DC, leaves little room to worry about someone vandalizing a tower site. The good thing? Normally the locals will do you a better job. We have a boy just sentanced to 7 years, yes SEVEN YEARS in prison on state charges for breaking into one of our sites. Plus they tazed the guy. You can go to the US attorneys office, and they can make the feds do something, but the power is still with the locals, and YOUR good relationship with them. Don't take your organs to heaven, heaven knows we need them down here!
