Further enraging Californians were Singleton's claims to innocence and his absurd threat of a forcible-kidnap complaint against Vincent. (She won $2.56 million from him in a civil suit, but he had no funds.) When Singleton moved in 1988 to his native Florida, the reception was equally hostile. A Tampa car dealer offered him $5,000 to get out of the state, and a firebomb exploded on his lawn. He had more luck later in Orient Park, where he moved into a house owned by his family.
