The video doesn't even match the written words by the Reporter, video she says he graduated from USA and the article states he graduated from Alabama. I know that this will be censored by deletion with Local-15 WPMI but this is ridiculous to present a story fabricated and not have any facts and truth to it. The entire story is nothing but lies and fiction yet this stationn allows it to be broadcasted and posted on their website and on-air. This is exactly why the American public has no faith whatsoever in what is being fed to them as information and news. It's all fake propoganda and these reporters are dumb as dirt. Back in the day 30 years ago if this kinda' fake untrue crap would have been broadcasted and aired on TV or innprint the people of the media source would roll from top to bottom.

I’m the mother of Charlie’s six year old son and I feel compelled to clarify some falsities in this report: 1)He’s actually 29, not 25. 2)It’s hard to find a “legitimate” job when he can’t pass a drug test. 3)He didn’t go to the University of Alabama or the University of South Alabama. In fact, he never graduated from ANY college, at all. 4)He doesn’t have student loan debt, he has child support debt from dodging payments for the majority of the last two years. While he may not have student debt, I do. I take out extra loan money every semester to supplement his missing support for our son while I finish my graduate degree (that will, in fact, lead to a job because I can pass a drug test.) Kudos to Channel 15 News for such outstanding investigative reporting. If wearing a University of Alabama sweatshirt allows a reporter to assume that the person is a graduate, I know some Rhodes Scholars down by the interstate that would really love your extra change, “and a cigarette too, if you’ve got one, man.” But, it’s ok. The lies published in this report in no way diminish its value. I was able to show this video to the Child Support Enforcement Officers so that an income deduction order may be sent to Picklefish. They can deduct some of the delinquent child support from his $2.15/hr. pay (and the tips that I’m sure he won’t claim.) That is, until he quits or skips town…oh, I mean, “relocates to find better prospects.” So thank you Modupe Idowu and channel 15 News, great reporting!
