This story has to be one of the most disturbing things I have read in a long time:

Ikenna, a 28-year old construction worker, went to deposit a $8,463.21 Chase cashier’s check at his local Chase branch, only for the teller to decide that neither he nor his check looked right and he got tossed in jail for forgery, KING5 reports. The next day, a Friday the bank realized its mistake and left a message with the detective. But it was her day off, so he spent the entire weekend in jail.

By the time he got out, he had been fired from his job for not showing up to work. His car had been towed as well. It ended up getting sold off at auction because he couldn’t afford to get it out of the pound. He had been relying on that cashier’s check for his money but it was taken as evidence and by the time he got it back it was auctioned off.

All this while the cashier’s check had been issued by the very bank he was trying to cash it at.

Only after this story went public and an attorney wrote a scathing letter to Chase, did they decide it was time to apologize. This is another example of the corporations ruling the over citizens and it goes against everything that America was founded on. Hopefully this victim can file a lawsuit against Chase and recover some of what he loss.
