This is absolutely despicable.
Hertz has had a huge number of its law abiding, paying customers arrested on bogus charges of car theft.
Hertz has been doing this, repeatedly, for many years.
Some of Hertz’s law abiding customers were held in prison for days at a time. Some of them have been arrested and jailed multiple times, despite not having broken any laws.
One law abiding customer, who was pregnant, lost her baby because of the stress from this. And this wasn’t her first false arrest by Hertz. Or her second. Or her third. It was during the fourth arrest of this law abiding woman, by Hertz, that she had a miscarriage. Between all of those arrests, this innocent, paying customer had spent a total of approximately one month in jail.
Hundreds of law abiding, paying customers are suing Hertz for falsely arresting them.
Children have been traumatized from watching their innocent parents get arrested by armed police officers.
Many of these law abiding, paying customers lost their jobs because of Hertz’s false accusations.
Hertz CEO Stephen Scherr deserves to be in jail for the rest of his life.

A Hertz customer was arrested after being accused of stealing a rental car, a lawsuit stated.
Antwanette Hill is one of hundreds of people suing Hertz for wrongful arrests over “stolen” cars.
A father and his daughter faced armed police after the company reported their rental car as stolen.
A Hertz customer was accused of stealing a rental car despite booking and paying for the vehicle in an incident that has led to her being arrested a total of four times and being held in custody for days at a time, a lawsuit stated.
Antwanette Hill used her status as a platinum member of the Hertz Gold Club loyalty program to book and collect a car without checking in with a staff member at Atlanta airport in October 2018, according to the lawsuit filed in July and seen by Insider. She had rented at least 20 times with Hertz before then.
As she got in the car, an employee came up to her claiming she was stealing it. Hill told him she was a platinum member and to look for her reservation, but instead he called police who then arrested her.
Hill was arrested three more times between 2019 and 2021 for failure to appear in court over the incident because she was not notified about the court dates, according to the lawsuit, and spent about nine days in jail on each occasion. Her case is still pending; Hertz has declined to dismiss the case.
Hill was pregnant at the time of the fourth arrest in May 2021 and suffered a miscarriage while in jail. She was hospitalized for three days.
Hertz CEO Stephen Scherr acknowledged false arrests by the company in an interview with CNBC in March, reversing years of denials by the company, but said policies had been put in place to stop them happening.
