I would love to be wrong about this, of course. They all should be punished severely. But it's baseball cards.

I’m not as familiar with the FBI as an attorney like you may be, but they don’t strike me as an organization set up to play the role of mediator and work nicely to help get some restitution back for people. In fact Mastro and Allen went to jail and never even had to pay a penny back! I’m kind of thinking there has to be more to this but what do I know?

I don't know about that. If I were a betting person I would say restitution might come into play in the final punishment (if there is any). But then again, what do I know? I am just a layperson running a chatboard.

But Leon, aren’t we awfully early in this for the FBI to be meting out punishment already? I know some think civil lawsuits should have happened already but as another poster articulately said, these things take time.

It wouldn't surprise me if we are several years away from closure. Who knows? I doubt this is a sprint nor should it be.

So what you are saying is we have several years more of name calling, childish behavior and redundant posts about this same issue to look forward to on the boards?

And do you think if there were charges, prosecution, and some verdict tomorrow it would impact that much?

Either you or Leon could fix that for you... I hear the Kool aid is better over on the CU boards, so I would suggest that for you.

Pre-war cards are my passion and I'm still waiting for an apology call Leon. When the leader here can't say sorry, that's a problem. And a major one. Might be time for someone to take over this board. |

When it came to any kind of sentencing I think it would certainly be a mitigating factor. If Mastro and Allen had spent the months leading up to trial trying to make people whole I think their sentencing would've gone differently. Of course I too, am no lawyer.
