I guess the sad part is he didn't get a lot more time and a much larger fine.

mastro should have went to prison longer than 20 months when people who commit lesser crimes get longer sentences than him.

True story. But those who rob have money. Those who have money can buy lawyers. Lawyers make a difference as sad as it is. Money makes a difference in the judicial system as sad as that is. "Justice" is not and should not be claimed to have happened nor ever happened in a court room. They heard you in like cattle and get you out just as fast. They give ZERO shits about the situation only getting it over with.

Just my two cents. Lawyers on this board tell me I'm wrong I'm sure you would or could but I have ZERO RESPECT for lawyers aka whores.

Paid to lie for money, just the same.

You should be thankful that butchering the English language is not a crime punishable with prison time.

Everyone has a problem with aggressive lawyers until they or their family member needs one. A lawyer who lies regularly, particularly to courts, will have a very short, very unpleasant career. As a lawyer your credibility is first and foremost your currency. If you push it too far or blatantly ignore ethical rules you will sooner or later get your comeuppance in a big way. Just like you can't BS people for long selling cards at a high level, you can't as a lawyer. The system is unfair in that better lawyers cost more money and are unavailable to many people. I've been involved in death row cases and the level of incompetent lawyering in some of these cases is mind boggling.

A BIG +1

I would assume getting a gift was better than him turning on you like he done with others that considered him a friend. Not much worse in life that a POS turning in their friends to get a lighter sentence. Hopefully he is the new play toy.

He has pledged to never work in the sports memorabilia business again. I didn't know that.

Maybe people should send him some of his previous auction catalogs for him to read to show what kind of a loser he turned out to be when he had the best auction house and most reputable in the hobby to go from that to sitting in a jail cell make him think what he lost. Keith Janosky
