No problem, from what i understand, a lot of shady characters there, I think a lot of folks were there just to wash some cash, because I cannot understand the prices all the cars went for, even the Veyron and SV are not good deal like you would expect when buying form an auction. The rest of the cars...sold for more than they would at a dealership...hell the 67 vette would of never fetched that kind of money in Barrett Jackson. not what i expected at all
Lots of rich idiots are familiar with Rothstein and probably wanted a piece of his notoriety and so they overpaid.
Good luck to the plaintiffs. As they've hopefully learned there is a fine line between being an "investor" and being a victim. The next thing they're going to learn will be that the attorneys will be the only ones seeing any money from this debacle. RM
Jason: Would it change your opinion if you knew it wasn't running and hadn't been for a couple of years??? Never underestimate the cost of a boat mechanic or a jet engine mechanic -let alone a boat, jet engine mechanic. Scottie
I believe his sentence can be further reduced based on post-sentencing cooperation with authorities. Unfortunately.
and the only person to go to jail is the guy who ran into thr FBI office yelling I did it I did it!!! please put me in jail and I will tell on everyone I know... I promise - and what about the rest of the perps? I guess our government can wrap this one up and wash their hands of it......another job well done? there is an old saying that rings true here "GOVERNMENT DOES NOTHING WELL"
It would certainly give me a little faith in our system if that were true - but if it's just Debra Whateverhernameis - that just deals with the two nitwits that ran in asking to be cuffed to the desk while they confessed to stealing a bunch of money - so G men we the public would love to think you guys are competent so go arrest some folks - unless you guys think the two nitwits you have now acted alone....
If the weisel is singing to the Feds, finding accomplices/partners/victims should be like shooting fish in a barrell as there is likely one degree of separation between each of their greedy asses. RM
I thought he was going to rat out some mafia guys. Good thing he will be in jail for the rest of his life. Otherwise his severed head would probably have wound up under the clear engine cover of one of his Ferraris as a warning to others. Teh women who is being sentenced on Friday is suppossed to get 10 years, but I think it will be more like 15-20 if public opinion counts. On the news last night they had a survey and 70% of the people thought that Scott should have gotten more than 50 years.
a message from the judge - a way to express himself..... as he knows the guy aint doing all that time...just wanted SR and Broward to know what he thought of someone forging a federal judge's signature..
I don't know if it has been mentioned as I'm on the road, but congrats to Scottie Saidel on making the front page of today's paper!
From todays Sun Sentinel. Still can't comment on the rest except to say I hope for the best for Scott. Scottie Image Unavailable, Please Login
