A man in Concord, North Carolina, was arrested Tuesday on charges of failing to return a 14-year overdue VHS rental, according to an arrest report.
The officer asked Meyers for his ID and walked back to his car behind him, Meyers told BuzzFeed News.
The officer returned about 30 minutes later and asked Meyers to come around to the back side of the car.
“I don’t know how to tell you this, but you have a warrant out for your arrest for not returning a VHS tape to J&J Video,” Meyers recalled the officer saying. “A tape called Freddy Got Fingered?”
That law was put in place to keep people from renting things like furniture/appliances/electronics and skipping out on the bills with the property without being able to be criminally charged. This state needs to amend that law and put a dollar value threshold on that, because stuff like this is beyond stupid and a waste of time and will clearly get tossed out of court. That poor guy tho.
