When the teen apparently vanished, his mother told police that she received a text from him which alleged that four Hispanic men had shot him before bundling him into a white van and driving away.
Before he vanished, local reports indicate that he was seen wearing a red “MAGA” hat.
Cops located his car near Marion County Airport, 80 miles from Orlando, and issued an Amber Alert to find the teen.
The teenager was later found “alive and well” on September 26.
However, Billy Woods, the Marion County Sheriff, now claims that the crime was an elaborate “hoax” devised by Speight.
In a social media video, Woods conceded that there were “red flags” early on in the case.
According to him, Speight “simply rode away towards Williston while the rest of us were left to think the worst, and my team was working in overdrive to solve this case.”
To continue the ruse, Caden, who had a handgun with him since the beginning of all of this, chose to shoot himself in the leg.
“There is zero chance that Caden’s gunshot wound came from any type of assailant,” he added.
An investigation involving local, state, and federal agencies found that Speight purchased a bicycle, a tent, and camping supplies before disappearing.
Shoot yourself to own the libs.
Ok then?
Can this be the new cinnamon challenge?
Charlie Kirk challenge.
Sounds like a plan. Hopefully a nationwide one
Ok then?
Oh, Caden
Lmao what the fuck
They want to instigate a race war.
Republicans, man. Literally will hurt themselves if it harms those they hate. Did you happen to notice the party with control over all 3 branches of government just let it shut down…?
Nazis gonna Nazi.
“Many of you have asked, ‘Will Caden be facing any charges?’
“‘What about the taxpayer cost of this large-scale investigation and search?’
“I can tell you those items are not off the table at this point,” the sheriff added.That doesn’t sound very convincing. The little shit deffo should be charged straight away.
You need the DA to bring charges against him. That could take a few days while they review the case.
Does the state allow kids to be charged for something like this? I’m sure the cops want to charge him, or they probably wouldn’t have obliquely threatened it.
Give them a second. Sheriff is still coming to himself after witnessing this level of stupidity. xD
The teenager was later found “alive and well” on September 26.
“Well” other than the self-inflicted gunshot wound, one imagines.
For a Nazi, that is ‘well’
Alive and…well…
and…well…
…kinda dumb
Totally not a cult of mentally disturbed people.
Mofo shot himself on the leg for no reason lmaooooo
My money is accidentally shout himself in the leg, the tried to cover it with the kidnapping story. But I don’t know the actual timeline, I’m just trying to rationalize the stupidity, which could be a mistake.
No: as per aticle and Op post, he purchased camping supplies beforehand. He planned it
Holstered a loaded gun, safety off, in his belt like on TV. This kid has a future with ICE.
Sanest Florida-man
(Shoots self) “Ha! Take that, Libs!”
Will we finally go full tilt and get to see one of them eat actual shit to make a “radical leftist” smell it?
I mean the proud boys stick dildos in their asses to “own the libs”.
Bro just Jussie Smollet’ed himself
His last name is a homophone for “spite”. This shit writes itself.
Is that how you pronounce it? I would have pronounced it like “spate.”
Meh, close enough. Just let me have this one
Hey! You know what? It looks like you were right! Nice work, my friend! Pizza and Mario Kart? Or if you want, my son and I have been getting into Lovers in Space. Cute game where characters have to run around your ship to get to different guns, shield, engine, and map to travel across space and kill attackers while freeing friendly animals. We could use a 3rd (And 4th).
What kind of idiot shoots themselves in the leg
Florida & Texas.
Don’t forget about cops giving gun-safety classes.
Is the drug guy really the one who should be talking about firearm safety?
Isn’t that like, a totally different agency? One that also handles some of the drugs that we pretend aren’t drugs? Man America is weird.
ICE capades.
Shouldn’t he be on a terrorism charge?
Reminds me of a nazi in Germany that had his friend hack of some of his fingers to blame it on radical leftists.
Sounds like Caden needs to watch some true crime to find out just how stupid he looked to anyone with at least two brain cells.
to find out just how stupid he looked to anyone with at least two brain cells.
We are talking about Florida people here.
Actually not. The only reason why we see these stories from Florida is because the state has unusual transparency laws on reporting offenses.
This type of Florida man shit is taking place across the country we just don’t hear about it.
Thats just a myth people on Reddit repeated over and over again believing it’s true. Wacky events get reported on wherever they occur. These wacky events just happen to occur most often in Florida. It has nothing to do with their “Sunshine law.”
Florida’s Government in the Sunshine Law, commonly called the Sunshine Law, passed in 1967. It requires that all meetings of any state, county, or municipal board or commission in Florida be open to the public, and declares that actions taken at closed meetings are not binding
Part of that lets journalists get enough details to publish quickly, before the story gets stale. We’re also the 3rd most populous state, 23 million people and some are going to get up to some weird shit.
and buy a copy of Grey’s anatomy, because there are arteries in there.
