Apologies for a slightly shorter than usual case this week, I fell behind schedule with all of the audio and video development I've been doing, so I needed a case that was quick and easy from the heart. How about the coffeehouse verdict? - I kept my opinion out of this video, but I do believe Marvin's case was conclusively seen in a much brighter light with thanks to no one else getting injured or worse. Should it have ended differently... I think people would have viewed him a lot more different too. Personally I find it difficult to accept Marvin as an all-round good man after he shot at officers and people with intent... But that's just my opinion! The man had creativity, I have to give him that. Have a good week all, and see you next Monday!

Coffeehouse is wildly off on this. They didn't cut off his road, he had the same road access as before, and is the same access road that is there today. They didn't cut off his sewer, he never hooked into it. He was just pumping his overflowing septic tank, which was just a cement truck barrel burried into the ground, into a local stream. He could have paid 80k to build the necessary lines into the sewer system, which is what everyone else did, build a proper septic tank, or if he dropped his lawsuit against the cement plant they would pay to have his line hooked into theirs. He wasn't poor either, his shop made good money. Everyone was bending over backwards for this entitled jerk.

Strange that Larry and Gary and psychopath Cody Docheff don't realize the fact that the WHOLE WORLD sees them as corrupt, bullies and murderers of a great man. They, their children, their grandchildren, their great-grandchildren have the seal of Cain on them. They are murderers.

That documentary may not be an accurate account of the story (nor may the social media legend.) There's a book written by a local journalist (Patrick Brower) who witnessed the rampage and had covered the 10+ years of ongoing bad blood between Heemeyer and the city (Heemeyer had filed many complaints/suits against other businesses/the city for various reasons over the years leading up to the incident) which paints a much different picture and backs it up with Heemeyer's own audio recordings and writings as well as court documents etc. In it he points out that Heemeyer's property had an easement allowing access the entire time (complete with a picture of the property the day after the rampage clearly showing an access easement behind the shop.) The access "road" running through the property bought by the concrete company was not actually a road/easement. It was just a path he'd been using because the lot was empty. The only mention of an easement in the audio recordings and other evidence refered to one he needed to attach his property to the town's sewage system. It was never denied. When Heemeyer found out what the cost would be, he stopped his attempt to get one and never tried again. The author could only trace mentions of the "access easement denial" part of the story to the internet and assumed it must have been an intentional/unintentional misrepresentation of the sewage easement issue which ended up becoming part of the internet legend. The author also refutes the idea that Heemeyer never intended bodily harm to anyone by pointing out that he had guns mounted on the dozer which he did fire a few times when approached by police and that there were people (including the author) in the town's newspaper building when he started dozing it who barely made it out before their areas collapsed. He also points out that Heemeyer ended up selling the property on his own (for ~10 times it's appraised value) long before the rampage (surprising the town as there were still some decisions on the matter still pending at the time) and rather than use that money to purchase new land and build a new shop etc., he used it to build his dozer instead.

The destroyed private property was most likely insured, which means that all the customers of the that insurance company paid for the damage through higher premiums. Public property may have been similarly insured, or repairs might be paid by taxpayers. At the cost of his life, he harmed the finances a lot of innocent bystanders, and likely did nothing to the individuals he targeted.

I've read several articles and watched several videos about this, and my understanding is that Marvin was screwed by the concrete plant and the city council-- they refused him an easement for himself and his customers to reach his business. I don't blame him for his anger. True: he went to a wild extreme, but his every effort towards an amicable agreement was just rudely denied. So, in a way, this was poetic justice... and fatal to only himself (he clearly meant no harm to any one or more persons). My heart goes out to his pain, and I gladly cheer what he did.

Then further fine that business with ‘nonsense’ when the city lines didn’t even come near his property. That was a buddy or in-law in power. I’d hope my death could be as poetic if I’dve been wronged that bad. Destruction with zero loss of life.

Marvin lost an auction for land that was adjoining his property. He lost not because There wasn't some big conspiracy against him, and his access was never blocked off (that seems to have been made up for effect by someone). In fact, the person that had supposedly "wronged" him even offered this idiot access to the local sewer line from their property. This would have resolved the whole thing, and he wouldn't have had ANY fines. But you want to know what Marvin did? He threw a fit like a small child because he wasn't going to "win" the argument. Then he spent more than a hundred thousand dollars on a brand new top of the line bulldozer (Komatsu D355A), and then poured many more thousands into the parts and tools necessary to turn it into a weapon. This is was a multi-millionaire narcissistic asshole that was unable to let go of his grudges; not some poor downtrodden man at the end of his rope. His business wasn't even failing, and he even had a million dollar home with an excellent view. The dude had an amazing life, but it wasn't good enough for Marvin. Even in his own ramblings left behind he states the following, "God blessed me in advance for the task that I am about to undertake. It is my duty. God has asked me to do this. It's a cross that I am going to carry and I'm carrying it in God's name." This guy was not some hero to be worshiped, you have been sold a bill of goods.

@@TheRealAsteria yeah, I'm kinda torn on this point too. If the actual accounts of the dealings are true then it does look like he was getting greedy thinking the larger cement company would keep biting on his higher asking prices because they had the deep money pockets and would need the extra space. I also don't get how he was cut off from his property if the trash company leased it and liked it enough to offer $400k? They must've had access to the property including reasonable plumbing and electrical power. Something doesn't make sense there which is why I'm wondering if we are getting the real or whole story. When someone destroys many businesses and is no longer here to defend themselves we are left with the story from other sides so we need to factor this in. Though I do find it odd that he felt he was trapped when his business was not geographically reliant on that spot in order to operate like say for example the way a skiing outfit would need a certain mountain sloped property. He already had built a good business reputation so could have used his great real estate profits to open a new welding business anywhere within his reputable range. Customers would have followed and with the property profits he could have built a better facility! Sounds like he knew he was talented and successful and started thinking he was integral or indispensable to the town for its survival. In other words he thought he was the top guy in town and when he saw there was a limit to his demands his ego got in the way of rational thinking. He was obviously very talented, crafty, and patient, but too bad he wasn't very rational or happy.

Marvin is a True Hero and a great man pushed too far by corrupt people.

Despite what he did, it’s difficult for me to totally condemn the man. He tried working with people but when talks broke down regarding the value of the property the town decided to play hard ball and essentially took his business away from him in a rather callous fashion. He snapped and planned his revenge rampage. This was entirely avoidable. At least no other people were killed or injured.

I’m glad everyone is on the same page as me, Marvin was actually a hero, everyone did him dirty and treated him wrong, he killed no one he only destroyed buildings I think that’s what he wanted was to harm buildings not people, because he started hitting buildings that people didn’t use.

Just because they talk about multiple times what he paid, does not mean that it was an unwarranted sum (though I am inclined to believe it was, as you do). The house I live in is currently valued at something like 4x or so what I paid 7 or so years ago when I got it, due to the market being a buyers market at the time and getting it as a foreclosure, then seeing a rebound of the market. And it isn't like I have some super valuable place in the middle of a giant city or something where the price would naturally be sky high. Just some food for thought. As I said, I am inclined to the same opinion as you are. But since I don't have enough info....

Just now seeing this though I’ve been watching your channel a while. Fun fact: I got to sit in the Killdozer. My stepdad used to be a police officer in another part of the state and was friendly with an officer in the area so we got to check it out. That thing was absolutely insane. It would have taken a freaking tank to stop that thing. It was a little weird to sit somewhere you knew there were probably still pieces of someone else’s brain matter.

Its a shame that Marv wasn’t more successful and that he didn’t get more publicity. What happened to Marv, happens all over the country. Small town politics, good-ol-boys clubs, and legacy families have way too much sway over the average citizen, and they use it to advance themselves only. Its truly every man for himself, no one out there will help you or stand up for you. Your efforts are appreciated Marv, well done sir.

I don't think he was a hero or a villain, just a man who had nothing left. It's honestly really sad, I feel for him.

Yep! This is exactly how I feel. It started reasonably with a man trying to save his business. But ended with an unreasonable man that was pushed to his limits. When big business is allowed to walk on the little guy eventually desperation will turn to revenge. He was Willing to die to achieve this goal! Very sad indeed.

The city government ruined his life, refused to help him and then punished him for trying to help himself. RIP Marvin

@@azuman7 I disagree, the key phrase is "could have." Yes he could have killed many people easily had he planned to do so but he did not. He only targeted those that ruined his life and only damaged buildings. I do not know the value of his property, but if he felt it was worth more than a few hundred thousand dollars it probably was. The city will never buy a property for what it is actually worth, usually they will only offer a fraction. Imagine you save up money all your life for a property and are forced out of it while being offered only a fraction of what you put in. This man was defeated but in the end cashed out his equity in the form of public damage. Rest easy bulldozer bro.

While I agree that no one should be blocked access to their property, Marvin made a mistake. At first he agreed to sell his land for 250k, then 375k which the other party agreed to. Asking for 1M AFTER he said yes to 375k is not right. You either be a man of your word or say no when offered the 375k. I don't know how much land costs there but is 1M reasonable?

I would feel compassion towards him if he had rejected the offers to buy his land. Instead he accepted a substantial offer, then demanded more, got a generous offer, and demanded more than double! $1mil? And when they refuse this obscene demand he rampages the city? He got greedy as soon as he saw those numbers and then when they went ahead with the plans, as they had every right to do, he blames them? Why doesn't anyone think maybe there's a reason this guy was alienated in this town? He could have taken the second offer and moved his business somewhere else if it was so bad, he was very lucky to get that opportunity!
