We’ve all experienced a bad breakup at some point.
Some are worse than others.
Then there’s this guy in a small Pennsylvania town, Washington Township, in America who took things to the next level.
Jason Muzzicato decided that the mature response to his breakup would be to attach explosives to a drone and fly it over his ex-girlfriend’s house.
As you do.
Over to Insider:
According to a release from the US Attorney’s Office of the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, Jason Muzzicato illegally possessed seven improvised explosive devices, ten firearms “including multiple AR-15s,” and a Model Phantom 3 drone at the time of his arrest in early June. Prosecutors allege Muzzicato combined his homemade bombs with the drone in an unsuccessful attempt to rain terror from the sky.
This isn’t his first attempt at causing havoc with a drone.
In an interview with WTAP, Charles Carcione, one of Muzzicato’s neighbors, claimed Muzzicato would use drones to drop nails from the sky.
“One day, I was… in the driveway doing something,” Carcione said to WTAP. “All of a sudden, I heard them. It rained nails. They came out of the sky. They dropped down from the sky.”
This is one of those times where the old saying ‘high fences make good neighbours’ really doesn’t apply.
Court documents reviewed by The Morning Call highlighted multiple accounts from residents around the Township describing vandalized cars and roads made treacherous by precariously littered nails. Those nails may have been the result of a strange James Bond-esque car designed by Muzzicato. The vehicle, according to those same court documents, had been retrofitted with dashboard switches that let Muzzicato drop nails, ball bearings, and paint thinner onto the road.
Okay, they need to get this guy away from all things tech-related. He’s clearly a hazard.
Prosecutors described Muzzicato as high on methamphetamine during his June arrest in court documents seen by The Morning Call. Muzzicato reportedly told prosecutors that he had regularly used meth for the past three years.
“It’s hard to conjure up a more deadly or dangerous combination than firearms, explosives and methamphetamine,” Assistant US Attorney John Gallagher said during Muzzicato’s arraignment, according to The Morning Call.
Oh good, he’s on meth too.
Muzzicato is scheduled to face trial on November 4.
If he’s convicted he’ll face up to 33 years in prison.
Fingers crossed.
