Discussion: UK Man Faked Coma For 2 Years To Avoid Court

Discussion for article #229153

Pretending to be disabled and comatose?

I would have figured him for a David Cameron supporter looking at the rise of UKIP’s share in the polls…

Possibly the best image to associate with a story ever. Nicely done.

Run him for Congress immediately. He’s a role model.

I don’t feel like going to work today. I think I just found the perfect excuse.
Ill call the boss and tell I can’t make it. I’m in a coma.

His deceit was uncovered when police tracked the use of his supermarket card,

I guess he needed those value buys if he’s going to take himself out of the fraud game to pretend to sleep to avoid punishment like a toddler.

He was just hiding from Lucilles, and loose seals…

When I read pretending to be comatose, I almost thought he was already in Congress.

Clearly, he needed to retain Whiplash Willie as his attorney.

I’m against the death penalty so I would recommend 30 days of continuous beatings followed by 30 years in a Turkish prison.

He should check Bob Loblaw’s law blog for free advice…

Acting!

Great story, great photo. Pulitzer-worthy.

Loose seals will put you in a coma every time.

Image is great.

Headline is totally misleading.

Native advertisements in the “More from TPM” section getting much harder to spot.

Way to go, TPM. Keep it up.

Or use cash–always.

Big props for the Buster Bluth pic. Hey, brother!

Better call Saul!
