Interesting approach. I hope he got everything of value out of it before he ran the bulldozer through it!

Well ... now you owe $160K on a pile of rubble. Idiot.

I guess this is less harmful than flying a plane into a building.

“As far as what the bank is going to get, I plan on giving them back what was on this hill exactly (as) it was,” Hoskins said. “I brought it out of the ground and I plan on putting it back in the ground.”
Love this. Ridiculous. The bank could have gotten what it was owed. Now they’ll get just land and rubble.

Can’t agree with you here. The man said he owed 160 and had an offer at 170 but the bank refused to allow it thinking they could get more.
I would have done the same thing. I still would pay the difference between what the land gets and what is owed.
If you want to be a sucker, that’s your call.

Fraud, demolition without a permit...
Prosecutors are probably making a whole laundry list of charges.

Although I’ve never heard of bulldozing the whole house. I’ve looked at some foreclosed houses that the prior owners may have well bulldozed. All pipes / carpeting / electrical fixtures and wiring ripped out/ the toilets gone. Interior drywall busted out. Windows busted out, doors left open for extended periods of time so the interior of the house is exposed to the elements.

There is no jail term since the bank didn’t own the home yet....proceedings hadn’t gone through .....He will have civil proceedings filed against him that I expect he will cure with Bankruptcy....
Based on his IRS position and other financial problems I doubt that any profit over the $170K amount would have been relinquished to him.
Interesting......At least it wasn’t arson which would have placed firefighters at risk and may have been illegal....

Fraud, demolition without a permit...I doubt failure to get a permit involves jail time, and I'm not sure there's been any fraud committed.

Maybe, maybe not, but I doubt he sees the inside of a jail over this.

I’m not so sure, drastic times require drastic measures. The legal routes damned sure aren’t working!

$350,000 for a house in Ohio, you could buy half of Cleveland for that.

I wonder if he will be able to get another morgage sometime in the future?
