fire
You’ve probably already heard by now, but the police arrested a one homeless guy and charged him with arson, burglary, reckless endangerment and petit larceny in last month’s massive fire at the Greenpoint Terminal Market; an accomplice was being sought. Supposedly, the fire started when the men tried to burn the insulation off some copper wire so they could resell it. Meanwhile, Joshua Guttman, still no angel in our book, was charged with 434 counts of “failure to maintain privately owned waterfront property” along with his son and four of their related companies. Guttman “feels vindicated in the fact that it’s now known he’s not the person who had anything to do with the fire,” said his attorney, Israel Goldberg.

  1. Yeah right. Why would Gutman put himself in the position to be blackmailed by this homeless guy ? Your conspiracy theory is way too risky for a guy who is worth many millions like Gutman.

  2. Probably Gutman paid the homeless either
    to burn it down or to go to jail for nice some of money in keyman islands. The guy is homeless anyway, so prison is acutually an hotel for him. He goes to 3 years max and he will be out in one year and 500K
    in the bank.
