The people who run Hertz are evil. Hertz CEO Stephen Scherr deserves to be in jail for the rest of his life.

[Drop Dead Fred]

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 woman is suing Hertz after being accused of stealing a rental car she'd paid for and getting arrested 4 times over the incident, lawsuit says

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.

After the first time, why would you ever do business with them for the rest of your life?

Yeah, if anything would make you question this, it's that...

 

[Donald H]

The American people will decide if it's despicable or not.

The jury is still out on declaring what is normal?

Maybe our forum's members can decide while we wait for the jury?

Fwiw, I would judge that the rest of the world will find it despicable.

Don't turn your back and walk away American!

Stand your ground and fight for what your country used to stand for on rights and freedoms.

 

[ColonelAngus]

Enterprise accused me of stealing their car after it broke down and they sent a tow truck and then couldnt find the car.

This was back in 2016.

The fucker on the phone literally told me I would be arrested for grand theft auto if I did not return the car THEY CAME AND TOWED.

I wish they did….I could have gotten PAID!

 

[Dragonlady]

After the first time, why would you ever do business with them for the rest of your life?

She didn't. They kept re-arresting her again and again on this same false claim.

She has a huge number of priors. I think there is another side to the story in her case.

The above is public information. I could continue for a while.

How can hertz arrest them? I thought the police could only arrest people once they had probable cause or evidence?

 

[miketx]

She didn't. They kept re-arresting her again and again on this same false claim.

You were there right?

 

[Whodatsaywhodat.]

It's a valid question.
Normal is decided by mental health professionals as what is accepted by the majority to not be mental health deviancy.

In Canada I'm considered to be mentally sane and of sound mind.

In America the jury is still out on what is to be considered sane.

If I was in America, would I be considered as completely fucking retarded?

Would I friend?

Just like in Canada. You would be called a fucking moron . If the shoe fits.

If a large corporation says you stole from them, that's probable cause.

The individual(s) involved in this should be the ones in court and if possible, criminally charged for a litany of offenses, including making a false report to the police.

As to why she didn't stop doing business with them after the first incident, from the story it sounds as if all of the arrests were tied to the first offense. When a consumer has put in time (loyalty) and accumulated rewards with a particular company, they are oftentimes loath to lose all of that and start all over again with a new company particularly if they believe the problem is not systemic but due only to a malicious employee(s). I know firsthand how frustrating a dilemma this can present and I believe the article did say that she held a Hertz Platinum membership.

You would think that Hertz would have offered her some form of free or discounted services for her inconvenience even if she didn't accept. Maybe it's their lack of response or concern that caused things to end up in court.

No it's not.

 

[Osiris-ODS]

You must not have read the article. The other three arrests were for failure to appear in court because she claims she wasn't notified of the court dates. It wasn't four separate incidents.

Though after seeing the list of priors in the subsequent post, including other arrests for failure to appear, I either wouldn't have taken this case or wouldn't have mentioned the three other arrests as that opens the door to propensity evidence under rule 404

[Burgermeister]

Doesn't make sense. If she had a reservation, she could have shown the police officer and it would have been cleared up.

 

[Papageorgio]

Retarded and sane are two entirely different diagnoses.

 

[Rogue AI]

Arrested 4 times because of Herz, allegedly. What sort of moron would ever use Herz again after the first time, much three other times? Some folks are barking up the wrong tree.
