Someone sent us this story<\/a> about Eric Kappesser who has been resting comfortably in the local hoosegow after he was arrested for impersonating an FBI agent in Wilmington, Delaware. His lawyer told the judge that he should get “time served” because he was booted from BUD\/S when he got in a fight in Chicago and was stabbed;<\/p>\n

Authorities say Kappesser represented himself to others as an FBI agent, including obtaining law enforcement discounts when purchasing firearms accessories and wearing a fake badge.<\/p>\n

Kappesser’s attorney says he was on his way to becoming a Navy SEAL when he was injured in a brawl involving other sailors in Chicago, during which he suffered two knife wounds.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

He’d already got the prosecutor to drop one charge<\/a>;<\/p>\n

Prosecutors agreed to drop a second count of impersonation, as well as one count of unauthorized possession of a badge or insignia of a federal agency.<\/p>\n

An indictment issued in May alleged that between April and October 2016, Kappesser represented himself to others as an FBI agent, including requesting and obtaining a law enforcement discount when purchasing certain firearms accessories. Authorities say he also wore a replica of an FBI badge around his neck.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

So I wondered what the odds are that he was pretending to be a SEAL reject. Odds are pretty good, according to the SEALs at Military Phonies – they say there’s no record of him being in BUD\/S, failure or otherwise.<\/p>\n

I’m shocked.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
