That's a lot of time for a 150K fraud. I've known of some fraudsters who steal tens of millions of dollars and only do a couple years more.

Default Aw, hell!

I thought maybe the story was going to be about that crook Roger Hooper. He and his partner(s) need a 33-month sentence just as badly.

We can always hope, that forger and CC are in the same geographical area.

That does seem like a lot of time for what he did. How does someone like this (or any forger or outlet) assume that they will get away with something like this forever? I guess I don't understand how these guys operate, and of course if this State is involved, I think like the masses about that other outfit in the same area. I guess they figured out how to play the game correctly, while this unfortunate slob will have a lot of time to think about what he did in the pokey.

Cheers,
Larry

If the Roaches do go down, we can only hope they face the same judge that this schmuck faced.

This is good news indeed. The Roache's Corner has to read this. Its really scary tho, so much fake crap, from Roaches and all over ebag. I'm no autograph expert, but I at least usually know when something at the least looks bad.

You always wonder if someday the autograph collecting part of the Sports business or any other (Celebrity autos, political, etc) will ultimately really go down the tubes. There is no real way to absolutely know, unless you stand in front of the person, but so much is being placed in blind faith and authentication. Its scary.
