Trump’s Walk of Fame vandal bailed out by dude who also took a pickaxe to the star

Not all heroes wear capes. Some just wield pickaxes.

Trump’s name was gouged out of his Hollywood Walk of Fame star overnight. According to the LA Times, Austin Clay destroyed the star with a pickaxe at 3:30 a.m. on Wednesday, and promptly called the police. An hour later, Clay walked into the Beverly Hills police headquarters and turned himself in. He was charged with suspicion of felony vandalism and held on a staggering $20,000 bail. 

But the guy who did the same thing almost two years ago came to the rescue. TMZ reports that James Otis, who took a pickaxe to Trump’s star a few days before the 2016 presidential election, paid Clay’s bail in full. Apparently Otis plans on meeting with Clay as soon as he’s released.  Read more…
