Navy on the hook, too? Why? Because this idiot reporter wrote the following line without attributing it to the storage company’s attorney as to why his client is blameless:
“Navy officials stopped paying for her storage in 2010 and told the West Bend company it could sell off the goods”
Good grief. Use some common sense. I would bet when you whip open your parked car door and ding the car next to you; it is the other guys fault for leaving his car to close to where you would be parking 20 minutes later...
“Good grief. Use some common sense.”
Are you asserting that the Navy did NOT stop paying for her storage in 2010?
Are you asserting that the company did not seek permission from the Navy to sell the goods?
Are you asserting that the company did not try to reach the owner of the goods?
So yes, use common sense. The Navy f’ed up and started the whole mess.
