    There’s more info than that. They actually drove him to the bank like gangsters, waiting for him to withdraw the money. They seemed reluctant to get another credit card machine and wasted a bunch of time trying to get cash. Oh and that watch was his personal property he was auctioning off for charity so it’s not like he was trying to sell it to buy some supplements. The Germans really came off as buffoons with this one. It’s not like he wasn’t good for it or couldn’t be trusted.

      The auction is the issue. If it was for personal use and if it would go back with him, it would be fine, but since it’s going to change owners in Europe it needs to pay custom fees. That aside, the German police is a caricature of itself.

        A “different solution” was then found for the outstanding payment of the security deposit.

        He slept with the cops?
