A Businessman facing investigation fakes own death by jumping out of his own plane, which later crashes after being intercepted by fighter planes. After parachuting to relative safety, he cons the police into taking him to a hotel by telling them he'd been in a canoeing accident. From there he makes is way to a storage unit where his motorcycle was stashed. Behind him, a messy divorce and maybe some jail time - ahead of him the open road. Man, given the sheer brass balls audacity of this scheme, I was hoping to follow the story of Florida businessman, Marcus Schrenker for months - years maybe. A regular white collar D.B Cooper. Enough to make The Daily Caveat forget all about Sam Israel and his motor scooter. Alas it all ended as quickly as it began. As of 11PM Eastern, Shrenker is in police custody.
