Please Note: A Radio is Not a Weapon

Follow me on:

Here's a weird story out of Granite City, Illinois, from bnd.com. Brett L. Nash was in federal court earlier this week. It seems he tried to recruit a buddy to help him rob an elderly man. The plan was to lure the senior citizen using his wife, carjack him, hold the guy hostage while he wrote checks, then kill him.

How was the killing to go down? Nash and his accomplice were going to put the victim in a Jacuzzi and electrocute him by throwing a radio into it. Then, they were going to add a cat to make it look like the feline had knocked the radio into the Jacuzzi.

Nash was arraigned on charges of "interference of commerce by threats of violence." I think it's obvious this guy should never be allowed near a radio or cat again.
