True, BudgetMum, but let's be real: with those charges, "legal bills" will be the least of his worries once the feds are done with him.

Spot on, Cal. I can't even imagine the legal bills and lost wages this guy is facing now—what a complete waste of a life.

Absolute chaos outside the Javits building! Can't believe someone thought fireworks and a pellet gun were the way to go on a Monday morning. Talk about starting the week with a bang for all the wrong reasons. Who do you reckon is actually responsible for keeping the peace in these spots?
