Former WPO Champ Ron Palmer Arrested

…on 25 counts armed robbery

For anyone who really knew this guy this should come as no surprise. Whats surprising is all the people that “can’t believe Ron would do something like that”. This guy already served a 5 year stint for armed robbery which is where he was introduced to powerlifting, i know because it was my brother in law that first put him under a bar, the guy squatted 600lb the very first time he squatted!

Truly an amazing specimen strength wise but that doesn’t make you a good person. He and his cronies had their little “lionheart charity” that was used to scam maoney from well meaning people, and his toy drive which was how he supplied his own childrens christmas. He even made a big speal on his website to have people mail him new cd’s and dvd’s for “the troops”. The key was he needed them in original packaging and they were to be sent to him direct. The loser was taking them to Walmart and demanding his “refund”.

I also know his ex landlord well and to avoid paying the remainder of his rent the jackass kicks in the doors and busts out the windows and swears someone “broke in and stole all his stuff.” The only people i feel for is the young girls that he would convince to do his dirty work for him…and the 6 or 7 women out there caring for his kids…truly a piece of shit, with luck someone will finish him in prison.

Couldn’t have happened to a nicer guy tbh… I’m glad he got what was coming to him.

I knew a guy that lifted with him. He said Ron was incredibly strong, but an idiot scumbag thief deadbeat dad type. Good for him.

Lionheart was just trying to fund the struggle against the English. Prison won’t hold him. It’s just like that part of the movie where he puts that warpaint on his face and yells “they can take our lives, but they’ll never take our freedom!!!”
