Only in Florida: Hell Hath No Fury

Breakups Are Never Easy

In my column Only in Florida, I'll be taking you down to the Sunshine State for the latest and greatest sex stories that can only be found in the craziest state in the union. 

Breakups are never easy, even when it’s the right thing to do. There are still hurt feelings, there’s that awkward moment you divide your things and give back gifts you no longer want because they remind you of that person, and there is nothing worse than running into ex when they are with someone else. But when the breakup is one-sided, well those are the absolute worse. And sometimes when you are breakupee, not the breakupper, it can be hard to let go – especially if it ended badly. Those bad endings can lead to revenge, and one Florida woman got her revenge all right - the problem is she got her revenge on the wrong car.  

Carmen Chamblee wanted to let her ex-boyfriend know that she wasn’t happy with the breakup and decided the only way to truly express that anger wasn’t with a note, a mean voicemail, or slandering him online; instead, she wanted to set his car on fire. So Chamblee jumped on her back, set his Honda Accord ablaze. But her revenge fell short because she set someone else’s car on fire.  

The car belonged to a man named Thomas Jennings. His roommate was the one who saw his car and fire and even tried to put it out. That’s one hell of a roommate.   When Clearwater Police arrested Chamblee, she explained that she thought it was her ex-boyfriend’s car. Chamblee was charged with second-degree arson - there is no word on what her ex-boyfriend did to deserve to has is car set on fire.  

They say “Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned,” which might be true, but when you are scorned, make sure you set the right car on fire.
