FORT WORTH, Texas -- Fort Worth police arrested a Crowley man accused of trying to cash a stolen check for billions of dollars.
Police said Charles Ray Fuller, 21, tried to cash the check at a Chase Bank, but the teller did a double take after noticing the check was for $360 billion.
The check was made out to "Fulla Comp and Entertainment," the record company Fuller wanted to start, NBC 5 reported.
Police said Fuller stole the check from Paula Prettyman, the mother of Fuller's girlfriend, Andrea Greer.
"I wouldn't picture him doing something that stupid, I mean, hurting me and my family," Greer said.
Greer and her family said they don't know what Fuller was thinking.
"I didn't think he'd do this, something this dumb. I think it shocked everybody that knew him," Greer said.
Her grandmother Sharon Laird agreed.
"I said, 'Do what? Is he crazy? We were just in awe," she said.
Laird said if her family had $360 billion, "I wouldn't be sitting here. I'd be somewhere drinking margaritas. It's five o'clock somewhere, sometime."
Authorities said Fuller also had a gun and marijuana in his possession at the time of his arrest.
Fuller told NBC 5 he police caught him with a gun and a small amount of marijuana, but he denied trying to cash the $360 billion check.

(As they say, the hanging is the same for two as for one. May as well go down for a 360 billion dollar check as for a 150 dollar one.

I say give his grams a couple mil for this classic quote: if her family had $360 billion, "I wouldn't be sitting here. I'd be somewhere drinking margaritas. It's five o'clock somewhere, sometime."
LOLOL!
As for Mr. Fuller, prehaps his defense team should spin this as "crime as political performance art"...a statement about the continuing cost of the war in Iraq, or the mounting national debt. He could get on Oprah or Larry King or something. He could have an instalation at MoMA. He could go viral, encouraging others to attempt to cash checks of similarly large amounts and post their mug shots on a specialially designed web site... |
