Next time idiot, hire a professional when you need work done

Years ago a friend, "Big Z", told me something I've always remembed. "Mike, you can get good work and you can get cheap work, but you can't get good cheap work."

Dumbs$%^, get someone who can handle the job...


Man pleads not guilty in murder-for-hire case - LA Daily News
No one's ever happy with getting a traffic ticket, let alone having their car towed away.


But a 21-year-old Burbank man allegedly took his anger to another level when he tried to have someone kill the officer who wrote him a ticket and impounded his car.


John Stephen Forbush pleaded not guilty and has spent the last month behind bars after police were tipped off to the murder scheme, according to police.


"We're not going to tolerate anybody reacting to police action in that way," said Sgt. Mitzi Grasso of the Los Angeles Police Department. "We're actively moving forward with the investigation."


The District Attorney's office remained tight-lipped about details of the pending case. But police officials said in August, Forbush allegedly provided a hit man with the officer's name, serial number and description, and said he wanted him shot in the head and buried in the desert.


He allegedly offered to pay $200. But the alleged hit man was later arrested for driving under the influence, so Forbush tried to hire someone else. That person alerted investigators from LAPD's Robbery Homicide Division instead, police said.

...Forbush's alternate public defender, David Cho, called the case "a weird one" and "complicated."
"The charge sounds serious, but it's probably not as serious as it sounds," Cho said last week after appearing in court with his client.


If convicted, Forbush could face up to nine years in prison, according to prosecutor Frank Tavelman.

  1. What's crazy is he was not convicted and took a deal on another charge, he was released and parolee retained him, so he filed a petition with the state
