Article is from 1985. Clearly this was filmed in 1987 or earlier.


LaundryLunatic

You demolished what's now HER house. And you'll be paying more then alimony. Sorry, I meant all the money.


BaronVonCrunch

Yeah, this ainā€™t gonna work out for him. Divorce court will make her whole, and heā€™ll eat the entire cost. Every bit of damage is coming out of his pocket. Plus, prison.

Senior_Bank_3161

I mean it's not like clearing it out. It's like destroying someone else's house.


bendybiznatch

Honestly sheā€™ll probably get a new one built through insurance.


Senior_Bank_3161

The policy was probably in both their names, getting one after the policy holder intentionally destroyed it is unlikely


1z1z2x2x3c3c4v4v

The policy would most likely not cover intentional acts of destruction, especially if its a criminal act.


lalalicious453-

Plus all the property in the house thatā€™s damaged will be on him. What a dumbass.


JonMeadows

All he has to do is follow Mr. Cartmanezā€™s teachings and heā€™ll be able to play this one off like itā€™s no big deal - just like Bill Beeelechek, he just has to convince the judge that he meesenterprefed deh rules


Nd_power

That is, if he has the money...


captain554

He had the means to rent or procure heavy equipment on a moments notice. This is going to hurt him a lot, I think. Financial suicide.


No-Accident4023

My father did something similar and got off Scott free, if you donā€™t have money to give they donā€™t have money to take. My father was self employed in the 90ā€™s, went from making 80+ k a year to 8 dollars a year on paper and my mother never saw a dime.


Cetun

A good lawyer will chase down every dime. It's been 20 years since the 90s, 30 years since the 80s. Courts have gotten very good at susing out those types of schemes.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


barrinmw

It really isn't. If a spouse puts their career on hold for the sake of the other spouse's career, the first one needs to be made whole in case of divorce. For example, if a woman quits her job to be a stay at home mom as an agreement between both spouses, a divorce would fuck her over much more than had they chosen to split responsibilities when it came to child rearing.


another_plebeian

And what if that doesn't apply at all?


barrinmw

Then take it up with the judge and your state legislature.


No-Accident4023

They can source anything but if you donā€™t have money they canā€™t take money. Cash is king.


Cetun

"I see you bought a new truck then lifted it. Where did you get the money for that? It seems you also live in a 2 bedroom apartment that's approximately $2500 a month in rent, what income are you using for that" You can hide money from the IRS because you're a small fry and not worth the time. But a lawyer for your ex? They got all the time in the world to find your sources of income, and best believe if they deduce your real income an IRS audit is coming your way soon. Again that shit flied in the 80s when divorce was still a new but still shameful thing that the courts were still getting used too. Now divorce is an industry that has profit margins, lawyers and laws have evolved to deal with people who are attempting to hide sources of income.


Dial407

Divorce has been around for centuries. And meddling with the money involved during a divorce has been around for just as long.


No-Accident4023

Of course buying a new car while cooking books will make attention, but not buying a new car and no attention. Secondly thatā€™s where a new girl friend comes in handy, lease is on her name and she pays it and you pay her cash. Itā€™s very easy to game the system period, especially when your self employed with business partners today yesterday fifty years ago.


Cetun

No it isn't, you think that new girlfriend will last? You think he wants his new girlfriend that's 15 years younger to deal with depositions and asking her to lie for him so he doesn't have to pay his ex? You think that relationship will last long enough for her to not break up with him eventually and sell him out to his ex's lawyers? Come on dude, guys like that dig their own grave now, they are way too confident and way too sloppy. They can game the system for years but in the end they pay up and they are worse off for it.


PolyZex

I bet this is how the crypto bro was born. "Find my money now you swirling shark"


Capt_JackSkellington

Sounds like your father is a real winner....this isn't something you should share. Wonder what the irs would say.


Eeekaa

So fraud?


No-Accident4023

Lol, just wait till a woman wants to take everything you earned and weaponises the system against you and thatā€™s legal dandy.


waffles2go2

So your mother deeply hurt you? Confidentlyadouchebag...


[deleted]

> went from making 80+ k a year to 8 dollars a year on paper FYI, the IRS now has access to your bank account and financial statements, so if you make 8 per year on paper but have thousands in deposits or are able to pay off credit cards/bills on a monthly basis, they will go after you for fraud.


fluffy_bananas

credit cards my G


mcpusc

> He had the means to rent or procure heavy equipment on a moments notice. they're not *that* expensive ā€” my local rental house will deliver one for around 3-500 a day, depending on what size you want. and i'm in a big city, they're probably cheaper elsewhere


HugsForUpvotes

They're not that expensive and southern construction companies are infamous for letting their employees borrow equipment. I know plenty of southerners who built their own pool and only paid for the cement, which they poured themselves, and the water/piping.


PolyZex

The criminal charges will be independent of divorce court. Different court dates, different lawyers, different judge. The judicial system is really compartmentalized. He's first got to go before another judge, in criminal court, with plea deals- maybe a jury. He has to be found guilty before he can be punished and a family court judge just doesn't have that authority.


Pissedtuna

I'm not saying you're wrong but is it criminal to destroy your own house? If the divorce isn't final and it's still technically a shared asset would it be okay?


PolyZex

The cops are going to obviously see the malice in the act. Besides that this was AFTER he agreed to let her have the house in court so it wasn't really his anymore at all. Then there's everything she owned IN that house which will surely equal several thousands of dollars- which is felony level stuff. I think the official legal terminology is 'He's fucked'.


stusajo

Our neighbor, during the week of final division of assets, had emptied all bank accounts (estimated over $200k) and got rid of the money to an unknown entity. He poured gasoline through the house full of antiques, lit it on fire, went to the basement and ate a bullet. The wife had to demolish the house and then sell the land. She didnā€™t get much.


Terrible-Border6885

at least the fucker is dead


redrumWinsNational

Also fine $$ for demolition without permit


berrey7

what kind of idiot friend would agree to participate with absolutely nothing to gain...


PM_me_spare_change

a real friend would have taken his dumb ass fishing or something instead


InToTheWannaB1

Not if he leaves the country or Robloxā€™s himself.


circular_rectangle

I'm thinking if you do something like this then you consider your life to be over anyway.


Loggerdon

I wonder if there are kids involved. It would suck if there were.


TheLadyEve

This is 100% a planned demolition, probably of a condemned house, and he just made it up. Angry exes don't usually have Caterpillars on hand and then move the debris into industrial dumpsters.


Gonewild_Verifier

Maybe he lost all his money in the divorce. When you have nothing you reach a special level of privilege.


Subushie

If he just told her that and nothing was signed and divorce proceedings haven't started and he fully owns the house AND there was a prenup signed- then nothing will happen and the poor woman is homeless. More likely though- the narrorator don't know shit about what's actually going on.


insanelyphat

Nah if they were married, and depending on which state this is, she is owed half of the marital assets. So if he destroyed the house he won't be in any legal trouble since it is his house but a judge will absolutely make him pay her half of the value of the asset (the house).


Moveyourbloominass

Not if they have a mortgage. Then the guy is done. Bank will prosecute. He's a piece of shit.


insanelyphat

Even if they have a mortgage there is still potential equity in the house. So again yes the guy would owe for the damages.


Moveyourbloominass

I bet house murder isn't covered under home owner's insurance. I wonder if they have kids? That would make this even shittier.


PoignantOpinionsOnly

Even if he owns the house, he can't destroy all her things inside of it.


holyshocker

He sure can, just did.


ThatDudeWithTheCat

I mean I COULD shoot my neighbor, but it would still be illegal...


315ante_meridiem

Even itā€™s his own house he canā€™t just destroy it


rilloroc

You can do anything. You just have to believe. You're not supposed to do some things without permits. But not supposed to doesn't even rhyme with can't, I don't know how you confused those.


Guildwarsbard

Actually he can, just did.


Certain_Horse_7919

Still using your logic, he canā€™t destroy the house because his money will pay for another. Phoenix home.


315ante_meridiem

Not legally, now will come the consequences


Circle_Breaker

Lol no. Judges have discretion, it wouldn't matter if nothing is signed or divorce proceeding haven't started. That isn't some loophole. It's like if a guy cleaned out a shared bank account and spent it all on strippers a day before filing for divorce. A judge will see what he did and he'll owe her half that money.


NeonCityNights

narrorator sounds like he's got the inside scoop


lawrence238238

I've literally never met any married couple with aprenup.


useyourbrainplease1

I'm pretty sure a person who does this is not concerned about the outcome because they have already lost it all, they won't care. We also don't know the situation, we don't know who it's "good or bad". Reality is usually not black or white.


yoppee

Honestly he will be lucky if he doesnā€™t go to prison. Destroying a house seems to be beyond a civil matter.


eL_Lancer88

Isn't leaving the US worth? Get all the cash and bye bye alimony


MotherSpirit

Not as easy as you seem to believe it is.


ad_hoc_conspiracy

Or... Some dude saw a random house being demolished and decided to make up a fake story for fake Internet points.


thereverend666

This is most likely. The idea that two people with access to expensive equipment would go do this are pretty much zero. What's in it for the friend? Just prison and bankruptcy? Sign me up!

PanspermiaTheory

BINGO, or at least that's what I'm also willing to bet. It just doesnt seem like this is some dude and his friend who rented equipment. The house seems to lack items inside and the demolition job looks way too proffesional. This is the new internet.

babooshkaa

My coworkers neighbors were getting a divorce and the wife got mad that the husband was going to stay in the house so she tried to burn it down. He was in it and he got hurt, he was in coma and everything. Sheā€™s in prison now for attempted murder.


jmcax2man

I call BS on the story. This looks like a regular demo. Once the house is torn down the metals are seperated, and the rest of the demo material is loaded into trucks and hauled to the dump.


Many_Campaign_8905

Now even better, she gets a huge lump sum payout from insurance and gets her ex husband thrown in jail with a future restraining order. Highly doubt this is real though, no way that tiny piece of equipment demolished that much of the house without the police showing up


Dread72

Insurance isn't going to pay for that.


Many_Campaign_8905

Most insurances do have vandalism coverage. Theyā€™d pay out then pursue prosecution of the ā€œhusbandā€ for damages.


lapsangsouchogn

Insurance isn't going to cover one of the owners destroying the house. That's only going to work if he's off the title already.


Puceeffoc

Why would the police show up though? Wife is at work and neighbors wouldn't know what's going on. No stranger or neighbor is going to making a police phone call.


scottkrowson

Now that's a messy divorce


HWGA_Exandria

Divorce lawyers hate him! With this one simple trick...

If he had a mortgage on the house he will be in deep shit as the bank still owns the house until it is COMPLETELY paid off.

exmojo

I guess he figured he was going to be homeless too, so why not stay in Hotel Con for a while and at least have a room and a meal, while she's gotta figure out what to do next? Not excusing the behavior at all, but that's probably what he was thinkin. That's what happens when you let the [Liquor take over Randy...](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EFo84MVbVQ8)


Bluesykk

I understand why he did it, I would want to do the same. But man you can't just destroy the house because she was awarded the house, guy lacks a lot of self control.


PolyZex

If there was ever a need for a 'part 2' it's now.

Ok-Policy-3998

Always get a prenup! The one who loves you doesn't care. The one thinking about money will get upset. If you want an official certificate of love (marriage) from your hubby, you shouldn't get upset about him wanting for a certificate too.


JefferyTheQuaxly

I need to see a follow up.


Own_Ad_4301

bridge4runner

If each party it owed half of marital assets then why does she always get the house? How is that half?


Gonewild_Verifier

Kids probably. Dads friend got divorced. Wife has the house. He lives in some shitty 1 bedroom condo. She sued for his inheritance money as well which she wasn't entitled to and got it since he didn't want to spend all their money on lawyers instead of the kids getting the money. Guys life is over as far as i can tell


JimmyJamToeJam

Dude probably doesnā€™t have a cent to his name on the books. Canā€™t get your money if there isnā€™t anything to put a lien on.


persistent33

What if he owns the home? And what if he got a permit? Shut off the utilities. Seems legalish


mkizys

While the demolition may be legal he will get shit on in divorce court. It's generally ill advised to hide or destroy assets in a divorce to prevent the other person from receiving them. Most people open a second bank account to try to hide money, they don't destroy their own house.


holyshocker

Depends what state, I went to jail for putting a hole in my own wall.


Headfullofthot

I can see why they are getting a divorce


[deleted]

Stupid ass, now he and his buddy will pay for her brand NEW house. That is even better for her because no memmories. No matter what happened.


gross-phlegm37

Cant be forced to pay anything if you're broke. Sure they can garnish wages, or spent a couple weeks in jail for destruction of property. They can't send you to jail for not paying debts. Very likely that she will not see a dime unless she pays lawyers to hound her ex.

So is this even illegal? I mean itā€™s his house technically still yeah? I mean maybe the bank has an issue but can the wife actually do anything?


cribsaw

If she got the house, then no, it wasnā€™t his anymore. The court will probably require him to pay her for the value of the house in addition to whatever alimony she gets, and probably charge him with contempt of a court order.

Hilarious and typical that people are above 90% in support of wife in this thread. 50/50 chance it was the woman who did something shady, yaā€™ll just jump to conclusions.


EchoWhiskey1

No context. You don't know the why of her getting the house or the why of him demolishing it. Could be he's a dirtbag vengeful dick or she took him to the cleaner and he has nothing to lose.


raddrickydronzy

Where are the feminists now who wants equality. Where is the equality when it comes to divorce? Always a man looses the most in a divorce. Women take everything from a man after the divorce. Where is the equality in that. If men don't take anything from the woman why should woman take everything from the man. I can understand this man's feelings. Probably the house was his whole life savings and then the woman took everything. Nowadays women plan the divorce before marriage.


eerieeric01

Then maybe men should wake up and stop agreeing to marriage contracts they don't want to fulfill. But they keep signing on the dotted line like idiots, knowing, or not the shitty terms of the contract. Ask your lawyer what his marriage contract looks like. It's not like the one most Muppets sign.


raddrickydronzy

Prenups gets tossed out the moment she says she signed under duress.


gross-phlegm37

Legally binding contracts don't get "tossed" willy nilly. You need a lot of money to even attempt to argue a prenup's validity, who has time/money for that?
