I am hoping the judge rejected the plea because he plans an upward departure, but he could also not want "his hand tied" so he can downward depart from the guidelines for a lower sentence. .
I like how they refer to him as the "King of memorabilia". He used to walk around the shows like he was the greatest thing since sliced bread, it was pitiful watching dealers and collectors acting like he was some celebrity. This guy did more damage to our hobby than just about anyone, but what amazes me even more is that his company lives on and people still bid on things like nothing ever happened.
These guys are thieves and nothing more.
