John Michael Manning, phony Marine BOLO
Someone sent us a link to the story about this John Michael Manning fellow. Apparently, he became friends with a real Marine and ripped him off;
He worked as a personal trainer at my gym in Salt Lake City and we became friends. He needed a place to crash for a few nights, so, being that he was a brother Marine, I opened my home to him. He then stole my laptop, personal effects, and my car. But most amazingly he stole all of my Marine uniforms and related items (Dress Blues, medals, ribbons, service Alphas, military record, etc.) Police reported to me that he never served in the military and is actually a fugitive on the run.
From Fox13 in Salt Lake City;
Det. Richard Chipping with Salt Lake City police said this is a situation that’s really frustrating to a lot of people.
“This is something this man has done in times before and makes it easy to assume he’d be more than willing to do it again,” Chipping said of Manning.

He’s better hope that Cops find him before REAL Marines find him.
Marines: “He stole a brother Marine’s uniforms and car and stuff?? END HIM.
Assclown is so fucked… if REAL Marines catch his stupid ass, they will make him bark like a fox until the POPO arrive.
Another gay porn shoot fluffer… looks like he probably enjoyed a few cockmeat sammiches in his lifetime.
I turned his fake ass in tonight in Missoula Mt!!!! You’re all welcome Marines!
Wait…do you mean you spotted him and reported him to the police?
Don’t leave us hanging!
Lotta big, empty deserts in Utah.
Just saying it wouldn’t be tough to dispose of a body.
Not that I’m advocating any such thing, of course.
Plenty of abandoned mine shafts in that part of the country, too.
Also not advocating anything – just making an observation.
A lot of sparsely-populated area in that part of the country. Accidents happen, ya know…
Y’know, “We were helping him train for survival school and he forgot his canteen.”
I love those types of ‘observations’ and ‘not advocating anything’ references.
I have a lot to say about someone who would do this to a fellow troop, but Jonn would be forced to ban me for life. I learned enough profanity in the Navy to curse for an hour without a repeat. I’ll leave it at this: Rot you scum. Even if the stolen stuff is replaced, it would not have exactly the same meaning, for me, as the originals I acquired during my career.
I have space for him on my land. I am more than happy to place the asshole.
It will be interesting if this dipshit is still in the area and makes his way to Park City…
Infantry Marines from Company F(-), 2nd Battalion, 23rd Marines, 4th Marine Division are located in Salt Lake City.
Hopefully some of them will run into this guy.
Soon.
This turd has All-Points Logistics written all over him.
I also have an odd feeling that he is about to receive a much need cup of warm soup and a very hearty handshake.
This guy….has truly earned the dumbest man alive award.
Dead man walking…….
You beat me to it…
He will be found.
Kind of reminds me a story where a woman on her way back out of Mexico saw a small dog injured on the side of the road. She picked it up and took it home. She even put it in her own bed and nursed it back to health. After a few days she decided to take it to the vet to get it checked out. The vet told her it was a Mexican water rat.
Be careful with what you let into your house.
He should start wearing long sleeve shirts.
To borrow from a favorite movie: “I got stuff planned for you that’ll take twenty years to kill ya and you’ll be screaming for mercy in the first five seconds.”
Cocksucker.
Start with looking in the gyms around town. There’s enough of them. Maybe post this story with pics at the gyms.
Frankly, I hope the Marines (or any other non-LEO military) find him first, and he just. . . . . “disappears”.
There are plenty of people out West who do “The Three S’s, Shoot, Shovel, and Shut up, ’nuff said…
Manning?
A relative of Bradley/Chelsea Manning?
Pretty sad that your brother/sister at least had the balls/ovaries to sign up.
Oh man, the jokes just line themselves up.
Speaking of whom-I just saw a story on Fox that the little turd tried, and predictably failed, to hang himself at Leavenworth yesterday.
Can’t even get suicide right.

Yet another Magnificent Fellow!
If this clown decides to wear any article of uniform that will display those sleeve tattoos he’s wearing (and do it in the presence of a real Marine), I’m sure that conversation would be very interesting.
This cocksucker needs to be stomped on like the Sarge used to stomp Beetle Bailey.
Any relation to Chelsea who tried to kill itself?
Just curious, how does someone who never served fool someone who did? The Marines (and Army) have a confusing jumble of numbers and names for their platoons and companies that I’ve never been able to decipher.
When I meet someone who served on submarines, I can tell in the first 5 minutes if they’re authentic or not.
Of course I’m suspicious of most folks anyway, but I would think if you became friends with someone, there’d be a lot of casual talk about where you served, with who, MOS’s etc.
Oftentimes, they’ll pick up on just enough lingo to throw off the scent.
Same here. I’m lost with Army/Air Force lingo. I understand Marine Corps lingo b/c I had tours with them, even though it was many years ago. Now, when it comes to the Silent Service of the Navy, I’m kinda lost. But, I can spot a bogus run-of-the-mill sailor and especially a Corpsman in a minute. Really, though, most of the posers I’ve dealt with never claim to be a run-of-the-mill Sailor. They all have to be a SEAL, Ranger, Special Ops. Seems if they spent a lot of time together, he would have outed the poser. Guess the guy was so skilled at being a posing turd he passed himself off as legit. Just a thought.
