A masked Manhattan mad man was busted today for posting disturbing videos all over the Internet bragging about poisoning millions of bottles of Gerber baby food in an effort to kill black infants, the feds announced.
Anton Dunn, 42, who calls himself “Trashman,” allegedly posted three rambling videos on YouTube and other sites, the last of which was Sunday, in which he claims to have used an employee at Gerber to add poison to the baby food.
In the first video, he insists that “the plan is in motion” and boasts of already having murdered four babies through his scheme, two in California, one in Chicago and another in New Jersey.
He claims it’s “too late” to stop the killings because the food has already been shipped, according to the criminal complaint.
In his second video, Dunn says that he hatched his diabolical plan to kill black babies, but concedes that white babies will likely die as a result of his homicidal actions.
Gerber received hordes of calls from frantic customers after his unsettling videos made the rounds, but the company has found no indication that his threats are founded in reality, according to court papers.
In addition, the Food and Drug Administration has not received any reports of death or illness from baby food as Dunn described, according to the court papers.
The feds have charged him with falsely claiming to have tampered with a consumer product, indicating that they don’t buy his disgusting tales. They’ve also charged him with sending threats in interstate commerce.
He faces 10 years in prison if convicted.
Dunn’s posted dozens of other disgusting videos over the years as well, including one in which boasts of stabbing someone to death and killing another person with a tire iron.
