Default Mastro Auctions Investigated for Shill Bidding

Posted By: warshawlaw

Come on, Jeff, you're a criminal defense attorney; do you really expect Mastro or Allen to post a public recitation of the facts pertaining to a potential criminal investigation beyond the denials already released? The allegations are awful if proven (although as Leon points out, nothing more than we've all kicked around on this board before), but it isn't fair to call out Mastro to respond here when you would never let your clients post their stories on a public forum in a pending case. If Doug was naive enough to speak to a reporter on it, I am sure he has since lawyered up and will henceforth be quiet except for very carefully prepared non-factual statements. And no, I am not defending Mastro if the company did something wrong, I am only pointing out that calling them out here isn't kosher, IMHO.
