Lance D. Bennette; Stolen Valor Baby Sitter

| January 24, 2019

A Brick man is facing a slew of forgery and other charges after police say he passed out fake military documents to dupe parents into trusting them with their children — and he was already facing similar charges in another Jersey Shore town.

Lance Daniel Bennette, 22, is facing three counts of forgery and one each of identity theft, tampering with public records and stolen valor after his arrest Jan. 18, according to a statement from police Capt. Robert Lokerson.

Bennett “used forged and fictitious documents that purported to be the act of (U.S.) military officials, who did not authorize or have any knowledge of these documents,” Lokerson wrote. “These documents were distributed to a few Point Pleasant residents as Mr. Bennette was soliciting to perform child care for these residents.”

“The documents indicated that Mr. Bennette was currently in the military and was required to complete family care hours as a requirement of this military program,” Lokerson wrote. “It is alleged that Mr. Bennette used these fraudulent documents with purpose to instill trust with the local parents so that he could be considered to care for their children.”

Bennette already was facing charges of allegedly having improper firearms identification in both Brick and Hamilton and of illegal impersonation in Toms River, according to court records. In yet another case in Mantoloking, he is facing three more counts of forgery, another count of impersonating a member of the military and one count of hindering by giving false information. All of those charges were filed in February or March of 2018.

I don’t remember doing any “family care hours”.  Barracks restriction I understand, Field Day I understand and of course Office Hours I knew well.  When I did have kids of my own nobody said anything about extra credit for  “family care hours”.

Family care hours are required for the Pedo MOS.

Good God another link between pedos and stolen valor. Something I would not have believed were it not for the many examples provided here over the years.

The Sundae. It’s a real thing.

Sounds like a very creepy case.

Green Thumb

Yeah.

Dude looks off. And he appears to be looking for easy access to kids….

We have seen that before.

All sorts of alarm bells went off when I read this.

Good job on the resident’s part, notifying the police.

I sincerely hope this individual spends some quality time in the graybar hotel.

I know what’s next. ‘Hi. Sorry to bother you. I’m selling magazine subscriptions in order to work my way through Basic Combat Training….’

Da Fukk?

Great to get this creep off the streets. We hope. And he supports the strange phenomena we see of there being a disproportionally high number of pedophiles among valor thieves.

Seriously, folks. we need a study which supports the anecdotal evidence we, and LEO’s around the country, have observed. When folks like us notice something like that, the next logical step is to study the data. Looks like a great potential thesis topic.

I don’t care what paperwork that guy comes with, I’m not letting him within 100ft of my kids.

At -some- point, you need to teach your kids how to run a wood chipper.

Now, now someone already got in trouble over that wood chipper stuff.

Family Care Plan abuse…

Dude just LOOKS creepy.

Rope, tree, perp; some assembly required.

But, but, but, stolen valor is a victimless crime.

Good job and BZ to the LEOs for getting this POS off the streets. Wonder how he’ll like the unwanted advances from someone with “bad intents”?

Is that a look of “oops I got caught and have to face the consequences for my actions” on his face? Or is that a look that he knows he’s going to be in for a world of hurt and it’s just beginning to dawn on him? Maybe both? Worthless piece of trash. And only 22 years old? He’s the same age as me and he already has a criminal record (though there have been cases with people even younger). Absolute garbage.

I’m sure there are victims. He wouldn’t of kept doing it if it hadn’t of worked. They won’t have to look very far.

Family care hours… all I remember is ,” if the Army wanted you to have kids, it would have issued them to you!”

I’m hoping he’ll be very popular in prison. He’ll soon be in the comforting arms of Bubba and Mr. Tiny. He’s young and pasty looking. I’m thinking he might be worth 10 smokes per night on the marketplace, maybe more if there is a bidding war.

FUCK. HIM.

Hack Stone

Maybe someone should crowdsource donations to his prison commissary account so that he will have a sufficient quantity of I Can’t Believe It’s Not KY Jelly.

HMC Ret

I’ll give him one thing, though, he’s very inventive. Some dufi (the plural of duffus) might have have fallen for the ploy.

What da FUCK????

Hope he enjoys his new “playmates” at the local poundhimintheass prison.

A Proud Infidel®™️

Here’s hoping that Bubba, Thor, Julio and “Tiny Tyrone” know what he’s in for and give him the time he deserves.

You guys are just being a big meanies and endorsing prison rape of a man who hasn’t been convicted of anything; and besides he likely votes Democrat. (See LC, I can spell it out).

Outcast

And all this time I thought it was spelled Dumbocrats, ok. ok I’ll start spelling class all over, they still have that in school don’t they. (Ducking into closet in case Mother Mary throws cast iron frying pan at me.)
