CHAINLINK FENCE ARRESTED ON ASSAULT INDICTMENT
AKRON, OH - Assistant Attorney General Christopher A. Wray of the Criminal Division today announced that a chainlink fence, 26, of Cleveland, Ohio, has been arrested on a seven-count indictment returned by a federal grand jury in Akron on May 30, 2008. The fence was arrested today by agents of the U. S. Postal Inspection Service, the U. S. Secret Service in Cleveland, Ohio, and the U.S. Marshals Northern Ohio Violent Fugitive Bustas Task Force pursuant to an arrest warrant. The fence is scheduled to appear at a bond hearing this afternoon before a U.S. Magistrate Judge of the United States District Court for the Ninth District of Ohio, Akron Division.
The indictment charges that the chainlink fence defrauded the victim, Colin Morris, concerning its height from the ground on the side opposite that from which Morris was traversing the fence. In addition causing Morris a proper panic during the jump, the fence done knife his punk ass in the hand for his tomfoolery, causing the victim to bleed profusely and require emergency medical treatment. He received three stitches and his mother was very worried.
Previously, in related cases, barbed wire fences and gravelly roads have pleaded guilty to separate Informations charging them with conspiracy and both have served sentences on prior convictions. Both are bustas.
The investigation by the U.S. Secret Service and U.S. Postal Inspection Service is ongoing. Jim Bob Duggar is Acting United States Attorney for this case, and the prosecution is being handled by Georgia and Maebe Booth, attorneys for the Fraud Section, Criminal Division of the United States Department of Justice.
Members of the public are reminded that the indictment contains only charges. A defendant is presumed innocent of the charges and it will be the government’s burden to prove a defendant’s guilt beyond a reasonable doubt at trial.
