Torrance police are investigating the discovery
of hundreds of recall election ballots in a vehicle where a felon was found
passed out with drugs, a loaded firearm and multiple driver’s licenses one week
ago, authorities said Monday.
Approximately
300 ballots were recovered from the vehicle, which was parked in the lot of a
7-Eleven convenience store on the night of Aug. 16, according to the Torrance
Police Department.
Officers
also discovered a loaded firearm, methamphetamine, thousands of pieces of mail,
a scale, and multiple California drivers licenses and credit cards that were in
other people's names, a police news release stated. Xanax pills were also
located on the unidentified male subject, who authorities described as a felon.
He was
arrested on suspicion of a number of offenses, including weapons violations,
narcotics and forgery violations.
This guy could just be a common gutter thief and have stolen some mail without knowing what it was
ReplyDeleteOften, in SciFi, there are depictions of spectacular battles. Usually it is in the form of a technologically superior belligerent using their technology to overwhelm their foe. Yet this method is as old as all of history; massed means, whether they be neanderthal rock throwers or spear chuckers or uncountable numbers of nano-drones. Or, even illegal aliens flowing across borders.
ReplyDeleteThis means that even the less advanced can engage those very same tactics. It can even be argued the simpler the means, the better the chances of prevailing.
The title of the post implies a background check was necessary and that the selected person may have failed that check.
Why not hire the felon, the misfit, the homeless? They are plentiful and by their very character they are easily dismissed.
And no one will miss them when they disappear.........
