A freak accident at least made the rounds a few days ago the
media world. It's about a certain Geoff Gaylord Jacksonville-Florida who
introduced the local sheriff's office and said he killed in cold blood best
friend. It was about a certain Mr. Happy Gaylord knew that 7 years and with
whom he lived. The state of excitement that they're under the confessor could
not have seemed strange police are the face of such horrors. What justifies the
strangeness news is that Mr. Happy was an imaginary friend, not a real one.
He told police that Mr. Happy was his best friend until he
started using drugs. After a "friendly" for many years, Mr. Geoff
Gaylord Happy killed his friend imaginary, with seven stab, cut it into several
pieces and then buried in the backyard.
"I never thought I'd ever do that. I killed my best
friend. I'm a terrible person and deserve to be punished," he said,
troubled. He even asked to be put to death because he can not live with a
guilty conscience with a crime so horrible perky against his best friend.
Gaylord alleged crime motivated follows: “His room was a
mess all the time with his toys and dolls. He left his empty vodka bottles all
over the kitchen… never picked up his empty cocaine baggies. He messed up my
apartment to the point where I just couldn’t get it clean. Before Hap started
doing drugs and acting weird he was my BFF (best friend forever)… we’d go
dancing, play on the children’s park equipment, both huge fans of doom metal –
listened to it for hours with the lights turned off.”
Gaylord says "trigger" decision to kill imaginary
friend were in a car accident caused by Mr. Happy while driving drunk. "That
drunk driving incident I got unfairly blamed for and just how messy he had
become put me over the edge and I murdered him."
Gaylord was however arrested by the police for threats made
to a police officer for not giving the death penalty. The police then went to
the home of the man, but did not find only tools used for consuming drugs and a
machine gun. The man was fined for not paying more taxes and released.
Millions have spread this news without realizing it has no
connection with the truth. It was in other words an ordinary manipulation in
which a lot of people "were bitten like a luscious fruit." In the
first 24 hours on all social networks have given more than 100 000 share,
"history" traveling at speed Internet.
On top of all that the world’s saddest mugshot was being
circulated, showing a man devastated over his actions. There’s just one catch:
the story is a big, fat, fatty fat fake. The story of Geoff Gaylord killing his
imaginary friend is as fake as fake can be.
The website Mandatory reported it as real, Inquisitr hopped
on this story as fast as they could. None of them thought to check with
the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office, or even check online to see if any such
arrest report existed (it obviously doesn’t).
Instead everyone was quick to sensationalize another
‘Florida Man’ story and report the Geoff Gaylord incident as fact, which it is
NOT.
It all started when the website ‘Moron ’ published ‘Florida Man Turns Himself
In For Murdering Imaginary Friend’ under the author named ‘moron’, and the post
took off like wildfire. I’m sure you’ve already seen it shared on Facebook or
Twitter, as that post is up to nearly 100,000 shares in the past 24-hours. This
would make for great news, if only it wasn’t all made up garbage.
The story fooled thousands of people as it spread across
social media, and at least two web sites, the Inquisitr and Mandatory,
republished this satirical story as real news.
But there is no truth to the above-quoted story. While Moron does not
specifically state that it is an entertainment web site, several clues indicate
that this publication is just another purveyor of fake news.
First, the author of this article is listed as “Moron .” Second, the web
site has previously published fake news stories, such as a yarn about a couple
selling golden tickets to heaven, or this story about child love dolls. Lastly,
the photograph included with the article does not show a man named Geoff
Gaylord who murdered his imaginary friend, but rather a man named Billy
Southern, who was included in WTSP-TV’s gallery of “crying mugshots” in 2011.
While that is an epic mugshot, and the story’s so insane we
all wanted to believe it, you simply cannot keep sharing that garbage as fact.
Because that person’s not real, and the incident never took place.
Development of the Internet has made all kinds of people,
good or malicious, can "throw" this "ocean" all sorts of
"rubbish". A minimum reserve should have to read everything and
borders on the ridiculous.
HAVE A NICE DAY !!!!
