If this couple weren't notorious already, having accepted stolen beer from Omar Thornton who murdered 8 of his co workers before killing himself. Not smart would be an understatement. http://www.wral.com/news/national_world/national/story/8147331/

I have been attacked numerous times when I was a cameraman. I've been spit on, hit, had things thrown at me, called the foulest of things, and even had an off-duty corrections officer try to run me over with his car outside the DA's office.

People are animals.
