From the Las Vegas Review-Journal:
Byren Stuckey knew in June that he was going to get his revenge on Bank of America. He just didn't know when, or how.
First he had to get home from San Diego after the bank froze his account...Shortly after arriving in San Diego, on vacation, with his boat and his girlfriend and expectations of a good time, Bank of America put a freeze on his account.
The $9,000 he deposited the week before? Inaccessible, a customer service representative told him... Stuckey, an avid fisherman, thought of the worst smells he has encountered. The anchovy bait he uses to catch stripers at Lake Mead was high on the list.
So he had a friend stop by a local Wal-Mart and pick up a package of them for him. The 10 gray fish come frozen, in a loose-fitting plastic bag about the size of a sandwich bag.
And they smell. Bad.
But the fish weren't enough. He then proceeded to urinate into an empty plastic bottle.
Finally this: When the bank reopened Monday morning, employees noticed a "nauseous" odor coming from the bank vault where the safety deposit boxes were stored, according to Stuckey's arrest report.
The smell was so powerful that employees and customers had trouble breathing.
By 10 a.m., the police were called, and they brought with them a slew of officers, the fire department, and an all-hazards task force that handles terrorist events and chemical and explosive attacks.
The bank was evacuated, closed and surrounded. http://www.lvrj.com/news/59169202.html
Stuckey was arrested and spent some time in the Henderson lock up.
As a person who has been screwed by Bank of America, I could not have been happier. BoA charged me $5 to cash a check on a $17 check that was drawn on their bank. What a rip off.
So, while I don't condone violence, no one was hurt and I don't blame Stuckey for getting angry. I just hope the judge sees it for what it is, an unreasonable action by the bank and and an unreasonable, but satisfying action by a customer.
Another Drone Theory! "Conspiracy"????
