“A Day Before Nautica Malone’s Demise, He Was Seen Without Pants In The Viral Video
An anonymous member took the private Facebook group Arizona Moms Helping Another Moms to warn others about a man at Bikini Bean in Tempe.
In the video, Bikini Bean staff are seen approaching a man in his car, asking if they could assist him. As they get closer, they notice he is semi-naked without any pants on and engaged in inappropriate conduct.
So they blurt out: Sir, you need to leave. Unacceptable. Then, he drives away abruptly.
People had also posted about it the day before and were able to identify the person (27-year-old Nautica Malone) involved.
After speaking with his wife, Tori Malone, they learned that the individual had taken his own life.
Therefore, the member expressed mixed feelings, acknowledging that while his actions were wrong, the outcome was unexpected and challenging to process.
They also hoped that no one had sent hurtful messages that could have contributed to his decision.
The member had only spoken to his wife and provided his information to the owner of Bikini Beans to be handed over to the authorities.
People were skeptical, wondering if the staff were recording random customers in the drive-thru and happened to capture this particular incident, feeling that there was a lack of context.
In the video, the staff member mentions that the man had driven through multiple times, so they thought of recording him.They pointed out that when the man pulled up, he seemed to be smiling or laughing, and when the staff member yelled at him, he appeared confused and then horrified.
However, Nautica Malone’s taking his own life was a huge shock, even to his close friend Anthony, who had known him for 15 years.Anthony expressed how heartbroken he was and that they couldn’t make any more memories.
