My reading that, all I can do is shake my head with raised brow. People think they can outright take advantage without recursive action? :dizzy:

What sinistral acts has he committed to those close to him?

Well, Yes. Yes, there are people who think and behave this way .... until they get caught. Then you hear
the familiar (usually from the mouthpiece):

+ He/She lost their job and the debts just piled up.
+ He/She was a good boy/girl growing up and would never do this.
+ He/She has realized the error of their ways and found God in their lives.
+ Etc., etc. Pick your favorite rationalization.

The judge in this case did the right thing. But this guy was not in the category of Bernie Madoff (I love that name!) nor the financial jokers that crashed their banks and got bailed out by the Feds (read -- taxpayers).

The vlogger and product tester Froogle did a piece earlier this last fall about this "fraudster". Apparently this was a long running and involved con that was perpetrated.

I remember the warning threads at Avsim on this guy. Glad they got him.
