The US ATTORNEYS OFFICE IS VERY INTERESTED IN THESE CASES.

Really, Richard, Chris and I handed the FBI an open and shut case. Five years latter they are still in business and have sold over 25 million worth of garbage. It is a total joke. The FBI just sucks.

Absolutely, Shelly.

Extremely disappointing.

The real problem is they can say " In my opinion it is authentic" Genuine or not in a court of law it was "there opinion". The problem is convincing a jury who 95 percent of them have never owned an autographed item and if they did just assumed it was authentic because the have a piece of paper telling them so. As sad as it may sound we are on are own to fight thru this problem. It is great we can work together to make sure we all buy the right stuff. Sad to say the general public could care less if what the have is real or not. All they care about is getting a autograph that looks close at the cheapest price they can find...doesnt matter if its real or not as long as they have a crappy "LOA" from A.M.A they feel good about it i suppose.

This is not an opinion. This was autographs that the FBI lab found to be on photo paper from yesterday with signitures of guys that had died twenty years ago or more. This was handed to them on a silver plater.
This is about thousands of military people that bought bougus items through there own PX. Forget the certs we know those guys will never go to jail. We are talking out and out Crap. The FBI knows it and has done nothing. They have allowed 25 million dollars of garbage to be sold in the last five years. The FBI is know the forger's best friend.
I know the FBI reads this web site every day. Why are you not doing your job. Your crime lab in Arizona will tell you that what I am saying is fact.When Tim Fitzsimmons retired so did you.
You shut down one place for a few months now there back up and laughing at you.

Ditto!!!

Steve Rocchi has been certing that crap since Sept. 2011.

Steve Rocchi must be proud of himself to be thought of in the same circles as Chris Morales, Drew Max and Ted Taylor.

The crap he's been certing has nothing to do with an "opinion."

I own some of the hard evidence and one day I will show it on YouTube.

Personally, I do not have faith in any entity now.
Government or commercial.
It just seems like nobody cares any longer.
This is not news to the bottom feeders.
Once in a while you may read a story about how someone got busted. In the overall picture that means very little.
Most of these bottom feeding scum are running free now.
