A Missouri man accused of tampering with merchandise at a local Walmart as part of a coronavirus prank video has been charged with making terrorist threats.
The video shows 26-year-old Cody Lee Pfister, of Warrenton, asking, “Who’s scared of coronavirus?” before licking several sticks of deodorant, according to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
According to court documents, the alleged incident happened on March 11.
Warrenton police posted the following statement on Facebook:
This particular video, which won’t be shared here, has gained some international attention and we have received numerous reports about the video from locals, nearby residents, as well as people from the Netherlands, Ireland, and the United Kingdom.
Court docs say Pfister “knowingly caused a false belief or fear that a condition involving danger to life existed,” and acted “with reckless disregard of the risk causing the evacuation, quarantine or closure of any portion” of the Walmart store.
Pfister has previous convictions for burglary, theft of a firearm, disorderly conduct and driving while intoxicated, according to the Post-Dispatch.
Topical SCUM!!!!
Any link?
While it may be more of a nanny state thing. Maybe stores should post a warning on their front doors that tampering with any item (even in a joking manner) may constitute a federal felony.
Put offender’s head on a pike at store entrance.
Here is a article that has a picture of the perp..
Not so funny now, huh...
I don’t see the guy as a terrorist, but what a lame ass dude
for not realizing that would offend people to the max, and
be seen as absolutely a flagrant violation of common sense
if nothing else.
Nah, make him lick fish-tanks clean with his tongue. That will cure him of something - the virus, stupidity, loving fish!
Just imagine how much it cost Walmart to pitch everything this moron may have touched.
Make him lick the Walmart bathroom clean. That would cure his problem!
Exactly...
Idiots will do anything for clicks on YouBoob.
A dozen strokes of the cane, immediately administered in the parking lot, would serve the purposes of punishment and deterrence...
Have all the employees do a class action lawsuit to boot. Sue this guy into oblivion. If he lives with parents, go after them too!
Imagine how small his manhood is. “moth” reference. :-)
Let him go.
What is with all the 20-something people constantly licking things? Seems to be a new thing.
Licking things is all they are teaching them in the pubic schools.
