[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If the only damage by the swimmers' "vandalism" was the poster, then the security guards' demand for money was pure extortion, a shakedown, as many knew the moment they heard about it. Whatever story Lochte told, overdramatizing the actual events, the swimmers were robbed at gunpoint and then charged with crimes by the Brazilian government.[/quote] http://sports.yahoo.com/news/jimmy-feigen-last-of-four-lochte-robbery-swimmers-releases-statement-124037496.html A "robbery-that-wasn’t-really-a-robbery-but-still-was-a-Brazilian-shakedown," followed by a further shakedown by officials when they forced Feigen to cough up a $10,800 "fine" for his passport so he could leave the country (that was the negotiated rate, down from $31k, then $47k). Lochte got out just in time, otherwise they'd be holding him hostage for cash too. [/quote]
