I would definitely question the integrity of any AH that hired a person that has done that much damage to the hobby.

If Arod can get work in MLB again after what he did and the ppl he screwed over, anything is possible. Different world we are in where notoriety is more important than integrity

Put more charitably, people tend to be forgiving especially where the bad guy has acknowledged his sins.

Easier to acknowledge your sins if you only have to pay $250,000 for millions in fraud, methinks.

I believe that was in the nature of a fine, not restitution. I guess as far as these things go he got a pretty good sentence.

Has anyone said or heard that ML hired him, as opposed he was just chatting with the folks there? He is in Chicago so maybe he just came by to talk.

I read the above that he was behind the counter of the memory lane booth. And perhaps erroneously assumed that since he was behind it he worked there.

Does reputation mean anything in a hobby where PSA exists?

I would point to the Bryan Dwyer/REA thread and say yes it does.

I would agree to a point. Unfortunately the Pareto principal applies to the hobby at large, you can only rely on about 20% of folks to have integrity and a moral compass. The good news is you can find a majority of those types of people on this sub.

It's been true for a long time. Obviously there are many fine individuals and businesses, but on the whole the hobby institutions that could make a difference are on the wrong side of the fence IMO.

I read somewhere that he found Jesus again or something like that?
Anyhow, he has been in the hobby since the disco days, and it would be very interesting to interview him. He has seen it all.
