DIRTBAG ROUNDUP: Curtis Alan Zipay busted again in burglary; has a long record of crime and theft

Stafford, VA. – Curtis Alan Zipay has somehow avoided serious time in prison with dozens of arrests for larceny, theft, drugs, fencing stolen property, burglary, DWI, and other crimes in Virginia over the past ten years.  Zipay has so many arrests in Stafford County that it indicates he likes the food at the Rappahannock Regional Jail and prefers to give all of his crime spree business to Stafford instead of Prince William County.

Stafford Sheriff Decatur reports that Zipay was arrested on April 29, 2020, by deputies with the Stafford County Sheriff’s Office after attempting to break into a residence and tampering with several vehicles in the neighborhood.
