What a dumbass... and as bad as this is... it gets WORSE:

“That vehicle was completely unmarked. In my mind, this was not good, right?" Dr. Sean Hollonbeck told WEAR News.
I can't say I've seen an unmarked Uber or Lyft car, generally they're very good about displaying one or both signs, so doubting this statement from the jump.
“I served 31 years, I was an Army doctor, I trained as a Navy flight surgeon, I served with the 7th Special Forces Group, I served with the 160th," Hollonbeck said. "I served six tours.”
Then you should know better.

"And everybody knows what’s going on in this country with fentanyl and child trafficking and rape. Terrible stuff.”
If they were engaging in child trafficking, why would they be bringing her BACK to your house? 🤔
“In this country you’re innocent until proven guilty,"
You mean, like the Uber driver?
I didn't even know marked ubers were an expectation. Here you'd be hard pressed to find a marked one.
I just went to Vegas and probably took 30 ubers while there. Almost none had signs. One had a police license plate though lol
I think there's a lot more to this guy's relationship with his daughter. She had other friends at the house and hadn't told him she'd left. She also went inside and left during this confrontation. Sounds like a very strained relationship for many reasons - eg I wonder how many times he's threatened her with a gun etc
