Affidavit: Southlake man keyed more than one Hummer

A self-confessed hostility toward people who drive Hummers, along with worries about family and finances, prompted a 72-year-old Southlake man to scratch paint on five of the sports utility vehicles, police said. (snip) '' 'I've got a mentally ill son and everything went together, my wife is diabetic and having problems, the stock market, and I just looked at the truck and I gashed it. 'I don't have a twin, I'm 72 years old and I'm awfully sorry.' ''

Reminds me of the Seinfeld episode where Uncle Leo is busted for shoplifting in a book store and his defense is that he's elderly. I'm glad this bozo was caught so quickly - the surveillance video clearly identified him so it was just a matter of time. Probably an Obama supporter too.

This ought to help him out with his financial and family worries [/s]

'I've got a mentally ill son

Hum, I wonder where the kid got that from?

[noname07718]

Why is this old fart not in jail!? If it was a kid, he would be in the slammer. With all of this idiot’s problems, how was keying 5 Hummers going to help? Lock up the jerk!

[renosathug]

He keyed them because “they have a big carbon footprint”...yep definitely an Obama man.

'I've got a mentally ill son and everything went together, my wife is diabetic and having problems, the stock market, and I just looked at the truck and I gashed it. 'I don't have a twin, I'm 72 years old and I'm awfully sorry.'

What a coward/baby.

Another envious little lib.

[Red Badger]

Nut doesn’t fall far from the tree.......Maybe he should go around and key some Priuses to balance out the Hummers......

” Yep definitely an Obama man “
not if he lives in Southlake - No way no how nobama.

[wideawake]

He keys Hummers because:

(1) His wife has diabetes.

(2) His son is mentally ill.

(3) Hummers have a "large carbon footprint." He himself drives a gold BMW, which is the preferred choice of aboriginal peoples who live in harmony with nature and at one with the land.

(4) He is aware of this "carbon footprint" because he belongs to two different environmental groups.

(5) Hummer drivers take up two parking spaces sometimes.

(6) He is having trouble in the stock market - no word on whether this trouble is endangering his proud membership in the local country club. Not that country clubs and gold courses have any carbon footprint at all.

If he thought he had problems before, just wait until he has to pay his lawyers. Maybe they can get him off on the insanity plea, but it’s going to be very expensive no matter what.

Jeppe told Fulgium that he is a member of two well-known environmental groups.

Oh. Well. At least he was just a concerned senior citizen/community activist trying to save the earth.... /s

"worries about family and finances"

It's gratifying to know your life is dysfunctional. Thanks for sharing. Hope the fine and restitution breaks you and your family scatters.

If this is the guy they caught on the video, he did not look distraught, seemed purposeful in his movements and without hesitation walked up to the side of the vehicle, damaged it, and left. No angst, no hesitation, no waffling, no signs of anxiety were present, with the exception of a look to see if anyone was watching.

With that, my BS meter is pegged.

He knew what he was doing, and in a premeditated act, did it.

[AlaskaErik]

And he drives a BMW, just like all the other granola munching eco-fascists.

[MrB]

He’s to blame for his own envy,

but those who incite envy/covetousness in others in order to advance their own political agenda are even more guilty.

[TLI]

The guy is some sort of hotrod in the Homeowners association where he lives and is known for making a big deal over what color stain was put on a wooden fence and having the “wrong” kind of swing set in your back yard for the kids.

Sound like a Class A - Industrial Strength Azz&ole.

Over scratched paint? That's pretty childish.

[Leftism is Mentally Deranged]

Ah the tolerance of the left!

[Sooth2222]

But police told him that the school's surveillance camera showed a man leaving the parking lot in a gold BMW, similar to the one he owned.

He drives a Bimmer???? He's more confused about his identity than Mr./Mrs. Garrison.
