Eh...Am I the only one to think it strange that a man who OWES $50,000 in child support would choose to set his OWN MERCEDES on fire?

Hmmmm...

There's a good chance that he was going to lose the car anyway to repossesion. Sounds like this guy doesn't honor his obligations.

Two reasons I can think of:

1. He was trying to get an insurance payment with which to pay his debts (although he'd never get insurance money from such a public display).

2. He knew that SHE liked the car...
