Not to change the subject or anything, but it amazes me that some members of this forum think it's acceptable to shoot a bum for stealing a can of beer, but a bank literally emptying out someone's house is just a minor misunderstanding.

Whatever the outcome is, it will be an example. The question is whether the lesson will be that companies can legally treat people like trash, or not.The Dude wrote:Make an example out of them I say.
AFAIK, they still aren't, but without the rest of the word it probably didn't get flagged.seamusTX wrote:There was a time, not that long ago, when terms like "bull" were not permitted.

IMO, the gun was illegally taken and should be returned (with full refund from the people who illegally sold it). I was curious if there were any guns involved.seamusTX wrote:I put a Google news alert on the name of the lady whose house was plundered.

had been turned off. The home was also nearly empty, with two dressers being the only furniture inside the premises,
and a neighbor indicated that the home had been vacant for some time. Therefore, not knowing that the GPS was
incorrect, our employees had no reason to doubt that they were at the right location, and they proceeded to change the
door locks, clean the property, and discard what they assumed to be trash and abandoned items. Unfortunately, we did
not discover our error until the clean-up process was nearly complete.
In a meeting with me in my office, I indicated to the homeowner that we wanted to compensate her but would have to
look further into the differences in the lists. We heard nothing more from her or otherwise about this situation until
being contacted by a local television station, which subsequently broadcast a story that, from our perspective, did not
accurately reflect the facts or the good faith actions of the First National Bank to resolve the situation.
