Hansen admitted that he took Mol-enaar’s heifers after Frank told him Molen-aar owned the blue-tagged heifers. Neither United nor its attorneys asked Molenaar for documentation of ownership, but Molenaar voluntarily sent them copies of his purchase invoices and an identifying photograph. Hansen admitted that he did not even consider postponing the sale of the heifers to investigate Molenaar’s claims. Three weeks after Molenaar first asked United to return his heifers, United sold the heifers outside the state. These facts support the jury’s verdict that United permanently deprived Molenaar of possession of his property.
