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.
(Shoots self) “Ha! Take that, Libs!”
Missed his head. Typical.
Caden
K
Jeez, the alternate timeline where Tom Holland turned to Meth is wild!
How do you miss your own neck by that far?
Totally not a cult of mentally disturbed people.
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).
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.
and buy a copy of Grey’s anatomy, because there are arteries in there.
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.
Mofo shot himself on the leg for no reason lmaooooo
Holstered a loaded gun, safety off, in his belt like on TV. This kid has a future with ICE.
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
Definitely something a Caden would do
Dude shot the wrong part of his body but that’s not a surprise
This guy is a full blown loser.
Bro just Jussie Smollet’ed himself
Can we now call this guy Jessie S’mullet?
Shoot yourself to own the libs.
Ok then?
Ok then?
Oh, Caden
Sounds like a plan. Hopefully a nationwide one
Can this be the new cinnamon challenge?
Charlie Kirk challenge.
To what purpose?
Tik-Tok “blame it on Mexicans” challenge.
for the grift. There’s money to be made being a facist in America because you can con your fellow facists for money. He wanted to be a martyr for “the cause” and then ride that clout for financial gain. go be on some podcasts, start his own podcast, start a crypto currency, etc, etc, etc.
To these idiots shooting oneself in the leg is a minimal price to pay for a potential multi-million dollar payday.
Incite hate while becoming a new MAGA star. If it worked out he could become an influencer and be famous forever as the kid who escaped being kidnapped by scary brown folks.
So…basically…Tik-Tok “blame it on Mexicans” challenge.
Are Americans well?
I guess that depends on which one you’re talking to.
