What's not to love about the story of a man who faked cancer to buy heroin?
Usually when a surf website makes normal news it is for something tedious and tawdry. Like posting images of underaged topless girls or the publication of anti-Semitic slurs. And BeachGrit is so proud to toe this historically important line!
Your humble servants made it on Denver’s local television news broadcast last night because we featured and pushed the story of a man who faked cancer in order to steal money in order to do heroin. Of course we were not mentioned by name but there is the homepage right there beamed into the living rooms of hundreds of older Coloradans.
I was actually surprised, in all honesty, to see Micael Kocher in prison orange. We Facebook chatted, briefly, after it became public that he scammed people. He asked if I was disappointed. I told him I was not but that his story really begged for a bigger blast at the end. Like a sprint to Europe at the very least.
He responded that his dog literally ate his passport so he could not leave the country and then apparently turned himself in.
Bummer. But look at us on television! Watch us shine in the most tedious and tawdry manner possible! And how good are those prison video chats? Does it make you want to visit the land behind bars? Do you think they trick inmates with a fake camera at the bottom of the phone console so that they can’t look all dreamy into the camera? Why else would Michael K be staring awkwardly downward featuring the zit on his brow?
The camera is above the screen, the reporters face required me to look down. I look people in the eyes when I talk, it was intensely frustrating.
“The dog ate my passport”? what an attention seeking cunt.
I mean, that’s actually what happened. Plus the whole needing to take responsibility thing.
Dude’s hella fat for a junkie. Is “heroin” a code word for “desserts”?
I haven’t done heroin in almost a year. I have done a lot of cocaine and I was much fatter before that. I like cake.
why denver
Where I’m living unfortunately
oh come on now. living in beautiful, healthy denver is probably the least of your problems.
It isn’t by the ocean?
I really wanna know the behind-the-scenes story of how he got found out! Is Rory a Sherlock? Chas a Jessica Fletcher? Derek maybe Poirot?
I’m not gonna tell you the story, because whatever you think happened is cooler than what actually did.
I respect that.
Lemme guess, he told a girl he was sleeping/getting high with, he slept/got high with another girl,
first one got mad and spilled the beans?
Something very like this
