The story just doesn't seem real. One lady is sitting outside in the dead of winter talking on her cell phone? People just don't ignore the dead man, they actually go out of their way to denounce him? There doesn't appear to be any other witnesses to the selfish cutomers- not even Starbucks' employees?
"One lady is sitting outside in the dead of winter talking on her cell phone?"
I lived in the Rockies for several years, and that doesn't seem so far-fetched to me. People who are accustomed to cold and dress for it can be outdoors without discomfort.
"People just don't ignore the dead man, they actually go out of their way to denounce him?"
Did you read the article? He wasn't dead.
"There doesn't appear to be any other witnesses to the selfish cutomers- not even Starbucks' employees?"
Again, it was 10:30 at night. There may not be enough evidence in this article to convict anybody, but I don't see any reason to be overly suspicious of it, either.
