Mastro is scheduled to be sentenced before Judge Guzman in federal court in Chicago in August. He will be receiving a sentence of most likely less than 30 months pursuant to his cooperation agreement with the government. The deal he has with the government requires him to pay back *zero* dollars in restitution to his victims. In addition, just today, Bill Boehm, Mastro's codefendant, received a sentence of three months house arrest for his actions in defrauding collectors who bid on Mastro auctions.
If anyone would like to write a letter directly to the judge expressing your feelings about Bill's conduct and his impact on our hobby, the sentence he is about to receive and the fact that you will not be receiving a penny in restitution despite the massive fraud he committed, now is nearing your last chance. Address your letter to: Judge Ronald A. Guzman 219 South Dearborn Street Chicago, Illinois 60604 The case name is U.S. v. Mastro, 1:12-cr-00567. Finally, it is also my understanding that Bill is presently reaching out to some high profile collectors and sending them happy little packages with some cards for their collections along with a happy note. As Bill never had a reputation for generosity, it is curious timing so close to his sentencing but that's just my opinion. Please don't let such a package deter you from telling the truth about Bill's negative impact on our hobby.

Orange is the new black and "happy little packages" are the new steak dinner at the National. Hardly a surprise.

I think most americans would agree the healthcare delivery system is "broken"...and in need of a major overhaul. Can we say the same thing of the legal system? Last edited by ullmandds; 06-29-2015 at 05:59 PM. |

While we're off-topic, can we get Pete's take on the state of dental care?

How do we get from the sentencing recommendation of a single prosecutor to the entire system?
