Homeless phony vet arrested

Jeffrey Prince

Someone sends us a link to the story of 57-year-old Jeffrey Prince in North Fort Myers, Florida who dressed in a full Army Combat Uniform and soliciting donations at a shopping center. Deputies questioned him and he claimed that he had been in the Army, but he wouldn’t tell them when.

Prince then said he borrowed the military uniform from someone he would not name.

According to the arrest report, Prince changed his story and told deputies he served in the Marine Corps, but again refused to give his date of service.

Upon further investigation, authorities discovered Prince tried to receive humanitarian care and enroll at the VA, but was ineligible because he never served in any branch of the military.

Florida Man Prince has been arrested more than 70 times in Lee County. Deputies say that he started yelling obscenities at them to punctuate his arrest.

      Maybe Danni-boi can “defend” him in court? Or, take him in as a boarder for that cash he needs to pay off people and the CA State Bar?

    70 Times arrested….does anyone suppose this turd will ever be a useful member of society?

    1. Slick Goodlin

      In the words of my old First Sergeant:

      “No one is completely useless…you can always serve as a bad example for others.”

      1. Veritas Omnia Vincit

        I suppose there’s that….he definitely qualifies as a fine example of how not to live your life.

    That meth is a helluva drug.

    Cmon, Danny-boi. Take up his cause. Shitbag fakes gotta stick up for their own, ya know.

  15. A Proud Infidel®™

    He looks like a hybrid cross between Iggy Pop and Jimmy Janos.

    1. He looks like a Klingon on meth.

  18. BigHead Tom

    Funny. He reminds me of a Gunny I had back in the day who was but mid-30’s.

    Cocksucker.

  20. Combat Historian

    A pathetic piece of drug-addled shit…

  21. Carlton G. Long

    I’m not defending this guy by any means, but this seems more of someone being what some of my “urban” contemporaries call “a hot mess” more than anyone really cunning or deceptive.

    His “stolen valor” seems more like when I was eight and tried to disguise my voice to call out of school…

    “Carlton is sick and won’t be at school today.”

    “I’m sorry to hear that. Who is calling?”

    “This is my father.”

    What can really be done about these types? My idea wouldn’t fly.
