Spoke to the Douglasville county sheriffs office today. I was told the case that the vehicle (along with a few others) was involved in was about 4-5 years old, and that the owners were notified several years ago to come re-posses their vehicles. Many never did (this one included) and because they didn't, they forfeited ownership. It was never towed to an impound lot because the state never had the resources to remove and store all the cars never recovered by their owners.
I'm gonna probably end up meeting a police officer out there to verify it's one of the lot, even though the Sheriff told me he was sure since he recognized the description. Then I have paperwork to do. Lots of paperwork.
