The Missing Projectors
Columbia, SC
A 27-year-old man filed a report with USC police April 7 when he discovered two projectors, which should have been removed from a building on Assembly Street in February, were not removed. That building, the Carolina Plaza, was imploded Feb. 5.

Was a great insurance scam. $500 projectors insured for $5000 and none of the said projectors ever existed. Implosion, inside job done well. Outside job done better. Damn geeks

Quick, get a lawyer over here! What’s the name of the crime where property is NOT removed from a building? Isn’t that anti-burglary? No… anti-burglary would be putting property INTO a building. There’s gotta be something in the rulebook, somewhere…

The crime is called “stupidity;” at least, it oughtta be a crime…

Ummm if said projectors were not removed, because it was there responsibility to remove them, i’m going to guess that the insurance company would not replace them????? Well if you have the right insurance company it might…I dunno…dont mind me i’m rambling today….

insurance companies will definately try anything to avoid paying out cash. I think there should be some laws for the conduct and price control when it comes to them.

Hey, I just thought of something…maybe they were talking about two of the workers who did the imploding…Sal “The Projector” Verelli and Louie”The Projector” Brunello.
