Trashman a hoax
“Trashman” Nabbed For YouTube Threats:
You may remember a site I briefly had called Vice Tube. It was supposed to be the YouTube version of MyCrimeSpace but it never took off. One of the posts I made at Vice Tube was about a guy who called himself Trashman.
He made videos claiming that he infected multiple women with HIV and that he was in the process of poisoning Gerber’s baby food in order to kill thousands of baby’s.
At the time of that post I said that he was a fraud and it turns out I was right.
Yesterday Trashman, aka 42-year-old Anton Dunn of Harlem, was arrested yesterday on federal felony charges of threatening to tamper with food. Gerber executives say that there was never any danger of their supply being tainted.
If only all attention whores could be charged with federal felony charges.

They probably shouldn’t have arrested this guy.
He’s a satire artist, his intention and he says it in some of his “real” videos, is to bring attention to the fact that there are people out there tampering with our food and deliberately infecting our people with HIV.
I think Trashman actually does a public service, only his methods are a bit unusual, he’s no different from any of the others, so why is he being arrested? Are we going to arrest Bill O’Reilly?
Trashman is not a criminal, it should go on record. And doing satire is not illegal. Finally there are white guys who do far worse(or better?) satire than trashman who aren’t being arrested.

To all the people defending Trashman — why don’t you go and bail him out?

Matt, I know you and Trashman have a serious feud, and it’s personal between you and him.
I don’t know Trashman personally, but I knew he was pulling pranks all along, I don’t see why we should arrest him although his threats against gerber were stupid. You can’t threaten corporate American and get away with it.
He is lucky Gerber execs haven’t hired hitmen to inject him with AIDS.
