A 63-year-old man was arrested in Utah years after he was charged with crimes related to selling a fake cure for the coronavirus, officials said Monday.

Can't wait for his Mormon neighbors to come out and defend him as a pillar of the church and community!

And the dude killed in a shootout just last week after he threatened the President.

Happened when the president of the seminary I attended was caught with a 16 year old.

Wildly I actually have met this guy and he was super nice, great kids, but was involved in a handful of snake oil like products including colloidal silver even a decade ago.

I'm wondering how, in today's age, a manhunt could take up to three years. Either he's great at flying under the radar or the hunters aren't very tenacious.

It's the dichotomy of the world we live in and I struggle to fully comprehend.

We are tracked, recorded monitored constantly, yet dickheads like this take 3 years to catch.. I don't get it. It's not like he was living alone in the woods.

Because in both instances there are rich people making money and neither one are interested in providing a service to the public.

Because cops are mouth breathing retards. ALL cops, even federal ones.

The VAST VAST VAST majority of wanted criminals are arrested in traffic stops.

Cops are just as bad at their jobs as they are for the safety and peace of humanity.

He was arrested in Utah County, officials said. The news release, shared on Monday, did not say when he was arrested or how he was taken into custody.

Guarantee they only found him because of a traffic stop.

I swear to god if you could avoid getting into a private vehicle you could skate free for the rest of your life and no one would ever catch you.

Law enforcement in this country is fucking pathetic.

The link goes to a 5 second, mute video for me for some reason, but going by the thumbnail, isn't that the same stuff that turned this guy blue?
