House flipping fraud in Florida alone cost us $10 Billion

'Flip that house' fraud cost billions | HeraldTribune.com | Sarasota Florida | Southwest Florida's Information Leader And there is no money to investigate or prosecute. So all these scumballs are free to do it again.
Key Documents: * FDLE report on mortgage fraud (PDF - 3275kb) * Flipping trends (PDF - 3843kb) The deals -- many of them inflated sales among friends, family and business associates -- drove up property values and tax bills during the boom, fed bank bailouts and failures after the boom, and fueled the foreclosure wave that has gutted property values. Unscrupulous property flippers would buy houses or condos, then drive up the price in a few days or weeks by selling it to someone they knew. Buyers used the inflated price to get bank loans for more than the property was worth, leaving money for flippers to split as profit. Despite their role in one of Florida's largest white-collar crime sprees, the vast majority of unscrupulous real estate flippers will never be prosecuted. Most Florida law enforcement agencies have done little to investigate property flip fraud. The FBI has been left to chase far more cases than it can handle.

"The legal age of marriage is puberty."
Selections from convicted child rapist Tony Alamo's press release of July 17, 2009

tony-alamo.jpgTony's up the river for the next 175 years for being a piece of shit rapist and taking underage victims across state lines. PRESS RELEASE | From Tony Alamo | July 17, 2009 | Regarding Government-Vatican Persecution vs. Tony Alamo
It is a violation of the US Constitution for the government to attack any religion, especially Christianity!! My trial is government vs. the Bible. The five young women who are falsely testifying against me have all been convinced to do so by the FBI. The FBI paid all of their tuition to go to a place called Wellspring, which is a “deprogramming center.” ... Deprogramming is a nice word for hypnosis, brainwashing, mind-control, voodoo, black magic. ... They are under a hateful spell of witchcraft. ... The FBI is against the Bible, Christianity, God, and all Christian churches. ... The legal age of marriage is puberty. ... Webster’s definition of puberty is “the age when one becomes capable to bear children, which is marked by maturing of the reproductive organs, with the onset of menstruation in the female; the period at which sexual maturity is reached.” The Bible says this as well. God’s Word, the Bible, never condemns a man for having more than one wife! Remember how they murdered, burnt up, the Christians at Waco, Texas! They are demonic.
No, raping 8-year-olds is demonic.

Texarkana evangelist convicted for taking minors across state lines for sex

Jurors convict evangelist on 10 sex-abuse counts
Alamo stood silently as the verdict was read, a contrast to his occasional mutterings during testimony. His five victims sat looking forward in the gallery. One, a woman he "married" at age 8, wiped away a tear. "I'm just another one of the prophets that went to jail for the Gospel," Alamo called to reporters afterward as he was escorted to a waiting U.S. marshal's vehicle. . . . "We believe he will face the rest of his natural life in prison," said Assistant U.S. Attorney Kyra Jenner. The penalties on the 10 charges total 175 years in prison, she said, and violations of the century-old Mann Act also carry fines of up to $250,000 each. The five women, now age 17 to 33, told jurors that Alamo "married" them in private ceremonies while they were minors, sometimes giving them wedding rings. Each detailed trips beyond Arkansas' borders for Alamo's sexual gratification. . . . With little physical evidence, prosecutors relied on the women's stories to paint an emotional portrait of a charismatic religious leader who controlled every aspect of his subjects' lives. No one obtained food, clothing or transportation without him knowing about it. At times, men were ordered away from the compound and their wives kept as another Alamo bride. Minor offenses from either gender drew beatings or starvation fasts.
