"This is for the safety of our guests. We will have a scanner that runs fingerprints and can identify you."

The police raid on the Motel 6 at Jefferson Boulevard location 2 days ago was deemed a success by everyone from Mayor Scott Avedision to Motel 6 vice-president of safety and security Victor Glover . It wouldn't seem to have a negative except for one man who has came forward.
"Motel 6 ruined my life" claims Johnathon Foster who stayed at the room which had the police bust the door in and drag him out 3 days ago.
The actual story is Foster was confused with someone else and the cops who dragged him out of the room didn't realize he was a different person. They also didn't realize Foster who was a married father of 3 , was having an affair with a coworker who was also dragged out of the room.
"They call my wife and ask if I'm her husband and that I'm with an unidentified female and its complete f--n hell breaks loose !" Foster continued. Witnesses claim Foster's wife had to be held away from the woman her husband had been with til she could leave.
The entire scene played out for minutes as poor Jonathon Foster now laments , "My marriage is likely over thanks to motel 6."
