Affidavit: Southlake man keyed more than one Hummer
Fort Worth Star Telegram ^ | 9/23/2008 | Bill Miller

Posted on 09/23/2008 11:46:31 AM PDT by Menehune56

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.' ''

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.

For that you owe me a keyboard.

The vehicles, he complained, “have a big carbon footprint and they use four times as much gas as the rest of us,” according to the affidavit.

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

Forgot to point out ‘also an Obama supporter’.

Today it’s scratching paint on Hummers that use 4 times as much gas. Tomorrow it’s running over fat people who eat 4 times the amount of food he does.

What a loon.

Hummers in Southlake?

That is the very definition of "Target Rich Environment".

He's probably voted for every stinkin' Dem since Roosevelt. What an asswipe...

If I were the judge....I might settle for sympathy. He’d have to pay for damages without any question. Then I’d require him to quit (in writing) from all environmental groups, and not be a member of any environmental group for three years. And finally, I’d require him to attend environmental rehab...where they would take the “Gore” out of him.

There is something sad and pathetic about a 72 year old man with the mental and emotional capacity of a 13 year old junior high student. It also makes you wonder who else has been the victim of this childish liberal tool over the past 60 years.

He told police that he used his car keys to scratch the paint, which he thought “would be harder,” according to the affidavit.”

So now he thinks Hummers have got cr@ppy paint. This dude must be some kind of keyin’ expert.

His keying of the Hummers is excused by the fact that he has "financial problems". He also says: "I walked up and saw the Hummer there, and I read about kids at Southlake Carroll driving $50,000 Hummers. 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."

So we're supposed to feel sorry for this "little guy" teetering on the poverty line, who's taking out his frustration on wealthy people.

Umm... uhh... except for the fact that he was buying 5 pricey football tickets. And he drives a gold BMW. And he belongs to a country club!

Not quite the clearcut picture of class warfare that he painted, is it? More like a case of "Limousine Liberal" attacking "Humvee Conservative" (or if not a conservative, then at least a non-Greenie as evidenced by his "carbon footprint")

I wonder which two major environmental organizations he belongs to?

I wonder if they can also charge him with repeatedly lying to police officers? When they showed him the video, he claimed he had a "twin". When they proved his BMW was parked nearby, he confessed but said it was the only time he'd ever done that. When they found surveillance videos of his BMW parked near other vandalized Humvees, he confessed to those too. Isn't lying to police investigators a crime?

Over scratched paint? That's pretty childish.

No, over expensive property damage. Keying a car is childish, and in this case with damage to 5 Hummers the damage is probably close to 5-figures.

And his old BMW gets about one mile per gallon better mileage than those Hummers.

That's pretty lame analysis.

"the surveillance video clearly identified him"

Did you see that the owner of the truck had trick micro, motion activated cameras on the corners of vehicle?

Yes, but wishing the complete destruction of someone's family over paint on a car is... Well I used childish but I guess it's actually pretty damned sick.

Maybe someday I will be well, like you, and not wish ill on the enemy. You're very righteous.

Mr. Jeppe would kill you in cold blood if he felt he could get away worth it, fool.

The guy lives in a $410K house with 4 beds, 3 baths, 2,944 sq ft.

Multi-car garage, nice big lawn. He’s not one of those oppressed by capitalism, probably just feels guilty about having it all.

His zip code contributed about 18 times as much as the average zip code.
2008 Contributions: $724,306
Average Zip: $41,307

Most of the presidential $$$ went to McCain 66% to 33% with $200 each to Bob Barr and Ralph Nader.

He’s in a heavily Republican area so it must be a bitch for him and why he has to sneak around...

From car keyer to killer. How'd you get there? I think Mr. Jeppe's not the only one to worry about around here.
