A California couple, Corey Curnutt, 25, and Navy sailor Savannah Grillot, 29, were arrested for luring bike thieves with unattended bicycles and assaulting them with aluminum bats. From July to November 2019, the duo filmed their violent encounters and uploaded them to YouTube, sparking mixed reactions from their Visalia community. While some initially supported their vigilante tactics, concerns grew as four victims sustained non-life-threatening injuries. The couple now faces charges of assault with a deadly weapon and conspiracy. The case has ignited debates about self-administered justice and the ethical limits of protecting property.
