Crazy online feud
« on: July 26, 2007, 01:22:05 PM »

Wow, this happened a while ago, but this is the first I've heard of this story. I think I'd better start being nicer to BackstageThingsWereFal.

Man burns down trailer in online feud

ELM MOTT, Texas - A Navy man who got mad when someone mocked him as a "nerd" over the Internet climbed into his car and drove 1,300 miles from Virginia to Texas to teach the other guy a lesson.

When he finally arrived, Tavares burned the guy‘s trailer down.
...
Tavares would not let the feud go even at his sentencing. According to Pack, Tavares took cell-phone photos of Anderson in the courtroom while the judge was hearing another case. Authorities ordered the photos erased.

And in October 2005, Tavares took a leave of absence from the Navy. He drove from the base in Virginia to Waco.

He took a picture of himself in each state he passed through, posting it on his Web site. The photo of him by the Texas welcome sign was dated Oct. 9. Tavares’ Waco-based attorney, Susan Kelly Johnston, said she was unaware whether her client intentionally came to Waco to seek revenge on Anderson or if he took a detour to Waco on his way from Virginia to his parents’ home in Arizona.

Law enforcement officials say they don’t know, either.

But Tavares’ intention that day, officials say, was to knock on Anderson’s door, point a shotgun in his face to scare him, then fire a round at his computer.
John Anderson's trailer, the charred remains of which were still to be seen Monday on his Elm Mott property, was the scene of a bizarre 2005 attack spurred by an online feud.

Instead, Tavares later confessed, he used a homemade accelerant to set a fire near the propane tank outside Anderson’s trailer home.

First I've heard of it too, and it's really too bad that that happened.
