This Dude Faked A Pro-Trump Hate Crime On Himself, Set His Girlfriend's Car On Fire, and Staged His Own Kidnapping All In One Wild Weekend

Daily MailA Florida man was arrested twice over the weekend following a bizarre string of incidents that could have potentially put the life of his ex and their four children at risk.

Vincent Palmer III, 27, placed a note with the words ‘KKK’ and ‘Trump’ as well as a slew of racial slurs that were directed at his own children on the mailbox of his ex-girlfriend before smashing a brick through the window of her car and setting the vehicle on fire in the early morning hours of Saturday.

He then fled, but returned when his ex, Staci Winn, 35, called him to say what had happened to her car.
Police on the scene then arrested Palmer when they noticed he was acting suspicious and learned there was a warrant out for his arrest over failure to pay child support.

He was released on Sunday, and at that point scrawled a bloody note with more racial slurs claiming that he had been kidnapped, which he left for his grandparents.

His grandfather called authorities to alert them to the note and soon after the officers who had arrested Palmer one day prior eventually found him at a nearby Burger King in Ormond Beach.

At that point Palmer admitted to setting the fire, writing the note and faking his own kidnapping.

Vincent Palmer the III having a WEEKEND! Home Depot, yeah, buy some wallpaper, maybe get some flooring, fake a Pro-Trump hate crime at your house, throw a brick through your girlfriend’s car window then set it on fire, stage your own kidnapping, maybe Bed Bath & Beyond… I don’t know. I don’t know if we’ll have enough time.

First the “hate” crime:


Then the car:

And caps it all off with a fake kidnapping to try and scoot out of those pesky child support payments. All in one jam packed weekend. If anybody earned a call in “sick” day Monday it’s Vincent, I can’t even get up on Monday morning after an afternoon of football with some beers, can’t imagine how someone could do it after this string of felonies.
