REDDING, Calif. - A former Redding landlord is in hot water today after recent Reddit posts he made were shared across the app.

Charles Pierce is a 70-year-old former landlord of the Manzanita Manor Apartments in Redding. Pierce says he was fired from his role after his reddit posts came to light.

Pierce told Action News Now that under a now-deleted account, he posted that he received mail-in ballots of four previous tenants at the Manzanita Manor Apartments.

In a post to Reddit, Pierce claimed that he used all of the four ballots to cast votes for former President Donald Trump, and to vote “no” on all rent control and school bond measures in Shasta County.

      “Mail in ballots are a huge source of voter fraud. I’d know, I just filled out and sent in four of them!”

      He assumed the rules don’t apply to him. Rules are for the people you don’t like.

      He missed the part where you need a lot more money to be able to broadcast your crimes and get away with it.

      Nah, he’s telling the news that he didn’t actually do any of this, he was just trolling or whatever. And fair, nothing on the internet should be taken at face value, for exactly this kinda reason. They’re gonna investigate and see if he actually did this or not.
