I wonder what will happen to this guy?  Sad to see the profiteering by individuals especially when it involves critical equipment needed by healthcare workers.

 

 

Coronavirus Price Gouger Coughs On FBI Agents: Feds
 

BROOKLYN, NEW YORK — A Brooklyn man tried to thwart FBI agents investigating his suspected price gouging by unleashing a defense befitting the new coronavirus outbreak: he coughed.

So says a federal complaint levied against Baruch Feldheim, 43, whose hack-filled Sunday encounter capped off a probe into a scheme to sell vital medical supplies at inflated prices.

A trail of jacked-up sales of COVID-19 materials — masks and other protective gear — led FBI agents to Feldheim's home, where they watched person after person leave with boxes or bags, the complaint states.

When the agents confronted Feldheim, they tried to keep a 6-foot distance over coronavirus concerns. Feldheim didn't budge, the complaint states.

"When the agents were approximately four or five feet from FELDHEIM, FELDHEIM intentionally coughed in their direction without covering his mouth," the complaint states.

Feldheim then told them he had COVID-19, according to the complaint.

The agents arrested Feldheim on suspicion of assaulting a federal officer. Feds also charged Feldheim with making false statements to investigations — he claimed, among other things, that he never sold protective gear to people.
