There are criminals, and then there are people who spit feces at other people—Gary Bogle resides in both categories. The 44-year-old man was sentenced to 21 years in jail on a mere gun charge, in part because of his ludicrous past behavior, which included prior shootings and one dramatic fecal-spitting incident.
Cops caught Bogle carrying a loaded 9-mm in Bushwick in October 2006 (he later admitted he was on his way to shoot someone). But according to Assistant Brooklyn U.S. Attorney Todd Kaminsky, the rabbit hole goes much deeper for Bogle: "The defendant is a killer and he has robbed numerous individuals. While incarcerated, his actions proved animalistic [and] subhuman. Spitting feces at a corrections officer is so gross, words cannot describe it." For his part, Bogle, who prosecutors said was also involved in a 1993 fatal drive-by shooting, claimed he wasn't aware that having a prior felony conviction canceled his Second Amendment right to carry a gun for self-defense, and that the whole thing was a giant misunderstanding. Maybe the whole feces thing was him trying to make some exotic coffee on the go?
