Virgil:
You are one creative dude. That was funny!

He is another perfect example of a rich (with other peoples money) person with absolutely no taste at all. He basically just buys anything with a big price tag and thinks that its just totally awesome because of it.

Hey Bob, I laughed out loud at Scott and Kimmie's toilet photos. $100 bucks to whoever can get Russell Adler's crapper up here. Not his face, guys...his Toilet! $200 if you can get him dropping a deuce.

Just when you thought it couldn't get more bizzare! LOVE IT!!! Where is the stripper pole?

Virgil that was so right on...I think I just woke my neighbors I was laughing so hard n loud...

kevink...Felony bad taste how bout Felony Twitching

Out of curiosity, wouldn't that be awfully heavy to lift the lid?

Can someone who knew ScottR for a long time tell us: did he always have that twitch thing. If he had it for a long time, was it always that bad. He was near out of control when I saw him out a few times.

The twitchin' must be a Jewish Avenger thing.

Wonder which voices out of the 43 or so in his head he claims he reaches out to for inspiration guided his choice of toilets. I bet he twitches while he shits.

one word " BAFFOON " IT JUST KEEPS GETTING MORE MORE MORE INSULTING ." A BAFFOON "

Too bad one of his 43 voices in his head wasn't a designer or decorator.

My favorite SR quote.
“This is not on the list of things that suck”.

Just Sayn'

Watching all of this unravel is very surreal. I consider myself a person who can determine 'personal charachter' quite quickly and I remain amazed by how wrong I had Scott and Kim as I worked with them (not at the law firm) and although quite flashy/tacky and often times Kim being a bit snobby, I felt it was all derived from insecurities and would give it a pass... I continue to think about all of the times that I would defend their behaviour in the face of so much negativity from others only to learn how terrible it really was. I say this to reinforce that it is possible for those who were close to the situation to not have known the depths of what was going on... again, I have always had a very keen sense of a 'bullshit' radar... and mine even failed me with this. We should all question ourselves and perceptions of reality while realizing how quickly we can accept situations for the sake of curiosity... I think this is why I gave it all a pass. So bizarre.

To Vanessa Vargo:

Where does someone like Kimmeee get off being snobby anyway? What -- because she screwed herself into some money 15 or so minutes ago? Then she sort of forgets her past "career" jiggling her jugs for tips while serving cocktails? Wow. She musta drank her own koolaid! Maybe she really does believe that money buys taste and washes away filth, in spite of evidence to the contrary. Scotty's in a league of his own, but Kimmie gets the "White Trash Award" in my view.

its soo ugly its funny comical. the painting on the wall looks just like the one at my kids doctor's office.

It is well known that liked to smoke cigars while sitting on the toilet:

How would anyone NOT discern what these 2 wanna be midget's were all about?

One peek at the pictures in the Las Olas Lifestyle Magazine you could feel it jump off the pages as well as when he would say ROTHSTEIN in that voice on the commercials with the diff athletes.

Dan Marino was his legitamizing front man..amongst all the others this piece of dung down the drain glued himself to.

Wake up S. Fla and all those that transplant from the north, this town is the epitome of behind the curve wanna be swine. Easily baited punks n bitches ready to buy into anything for a quick buck.

By all accounts, Kimmee is a cold-hearted, calculating gold-digger. The adage, "when you marry for money, you earn every penny." applies here. I think she absolutely deserves the shame and humiliation I can only hope she has the capacity to feel right now. I think this is referred to as, "comeuppance."

Regarding below... point made: mean, vindictive and ignorant. Some people are just TOO easy to expose.

Jesus, just when I thought this blog couldn't get any better.
I wake up to a picture of SR's gold plated crapper.
PRICELESS!
You rule, Bob.

That gaudy palace is in direct competition with Dan Marino's, 4 sale, gaudy palace in Weston. Does poo stick to gold? Just asking. Ya know?

Scotty's BLUMPKIN throne. Kim was down for it.

come on now people. do you all really think that a waitress chick would get into the big house and drive all sugar daddy's cars and live it up like she did unless she was taking care of business?

stop the spin and the b.s.

National Liquidators has the three seized yachts. It's possible that they will get some of the other stash too but we'll probably have to wait until the whole mess is settled before any sales.

Some Greek or Latin will buy Rothsteins Yacht.

No one in their right mind in the United States would want to touch that ecoli infested thing.

As I said on the previous article posted prior to this one....if these losers were dealing and doing strippers they are walking HIV/STD cases.

1 in 75 men in Broward county as per the recent AIDS Conference in Miami a few months ago, is HIV positive.

For Rothstein to Ponzi up 1 Billion bucks there's got to be
over $1,000 victims. Being in that position I'd snatch up the best attorney in town. To think well over 1,000 footed the bill for someone else's cars, homes, yachts, prostitutes,
vacations, private jets and political donations.....At least some solid foundations profited. The rest of the moola went over seas funding who knows what. Fort Lauderdale was raped by Rothstein. Wonder how well he is sleeping. A guy like that has no conscience, I am sure he is sleepin like a baby.

Christy,

Follow the blog pay attention.

Von Allmen alone dumped $50 Million into this on 2 seperate occasions.

There were a dozen or 2 dozen maybe 3 that came up with the other $100-200 Mill a pop...

$500 Mill like Bonnie Burnett were probably the bottom of the pole botox lips greedy losers that invested in this comical fiasco.

You can't write a better comic book series.

If he is sleeping without waking up at night and staggering like a drunken man in the night as the scripture in Job states....he is poppin' a few Ambien.

Scott Rothstein had nothing more than a brief stint as a rich wannabee. He is nothing more than a cunning salesman. He is cunning in no other way. He was caught.

The inspiration for such good taste can be found below.

Here we find the interior decorator for the Rothstein mansion giving a tour of his own home.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PD5i2Lpmf-I

Does anyone know what Rothstein's fascination with Capital Grille is all about? Is it part of Bova? Where did Kimmie waitress before "striking it rich"?

My ponzi scheme is bigger than your ponzi scheme

Mine is bigger n better Bitch! Get outta my way slut!

Read the article....

Bob clearly stated...these pictures were taken by someone that worked in his house.

Poor little twitch boy. Once he got that first loan from the Morse, his little putz was probably hard for months....again I say, a punk from da Bronx transplanted to Lauderhill ghetto at 16, who yearned to live on the ICW.

I want the right to the comic book series.

SNL has to create a jewish avenger character. Seinfeld used to bring up Boca and the losers in his stand up....this is Bova - Cap Grille Prime comedy.

Kimora Lee Simmons happens to have the same toilet as SR... I guess she didn't know that Scotty would have the same tacky toilet.

'And then there's the gold-leaf-and-carved-jade powder-room toilet owned by only two other people in the world, Simmons says — Oprah and "some king."'

Amy Howard, AKA flip Flop girl while she worked at Capital Grille. The chic always wore Flip Flops...

If the end of this movie is so obvious, why are you watching?

To those who are harsh on VanessaVargo for saying, in effect, "hey, I was fooled," you have missed the fullness of tragedy and the reasons for our fascination with fate.

It has taken the Pulp to tell this story, down to the bizarre details, as well as the evil tentacles in the corridors of democracy. There are plenty of righteous moral messages, to be shocked, to respond, "I would never have fallen for that," but the fact is that we are watching which means we are finding something in this story that we did not expect.

Good will come in the end from this story if some of us have modest doubt, "I hope I never fall for something like that."

yes, it really is his house.

I wonder if Rothstein shit golden turds?

I ate at Seasons 52 the other night (cap grille is so stuffy with the pics of all of those old people staring at you while you eat) Anyway - while waiting for the valet to bring our mini van back, we watched all the other ordinary folks fawn over the blue bentley left out front by the valet service. they were taking pics, leaning on it and I thought one lady was gonna suck the paint right off the car! I just laughed and thought that scotty was probably just like that a few years ago. He probably liked to sit outside at the ole' grille, so he could watch people drool over his cars. I shit you not....as I walked towards the Blue Martini cause I thought I heard live music, the guy at the front actually moved the line ropes right in front of me to block me from getting closer. He just gave me this look like I was a piece of garbage. Guess they don't like Plantation low lifes stinking up the joint.

Some of you may have heard of me and others not. I am the first official interior decorator of the United States and I am speaking from the grave. Matter of fact, I am rolling over in my grave. First, the interior decorator of SR's home should be executed. Such a disgrace. Scotty & Kimmie have no taste or class as most nouveau riche. The home must be gutted down to bare walls and that horrid faux finish covered with a good primer. Nothing can be saved.

May I rest in peace....

That pic is of his OLD throne. Here's his new thrown:

http://bit.ly/EhqIQ

Yes, that is really & truly his house. Yes, he has always had the eye-twitch, but it has gotten worse in recent years. He also has another twitch, involving his shoulder. It usually goes, shoulder twitch (up & rolling back a little), then neck jerks a little in the opposite direction (reminiscent of a boxer before a jab), then the eye blink. The guy was constantly in motion.

Kimmie#2 was a coke whore before she met Scott. She was & is a speciman of that species known as "trailer trash". Quite a few of those outrageous decorative choices were hers, approved by Scott. Her cycle guy boyfriend didn't like her hanging with Scott & threatened them, as cycle guys will do. Scott bought her, plain & simple. The girl has no manners, no class, & was only nice to people she was told to be nice to, or who had money, or who could "advance" her new career as nouveau riche wife. Puhleeezze. She does not have an "innocent" bone in her completely plastic body.

If the Israeli mob were gunning for me, I might develop a nervous twitch too.

gimme samore -

What's behind SR's apparent Jones for the Capital Grille? Is it connected with the one in Rhode Island?

As many here are exploring connections of various sorts, would it be impolite to ask?

Enjoyed your description of in-thrall patrons who lick paint from cars.

Were I to cut short my hibernation, light the wicks on the family ride, take a run over and park in front of the 'Grille, might some patrons gobble it up and demand seconds?

Not likely, but it does conjure darkly comedic images, doesn't it?

A blockbuster film? Only one? You mean they've yet to prepare treatments for the first and second sequels?

Can we fit in a cameo for Doctor Strangelove? Would "How I learned to stop worrying and love economic implosion" be a fitting subtitle?

Isn't it refreshing to see Bob Norman resurrect what's fondly remembered as 'investigative journalism'?

When visiting Miami we always grabbed Miami New Times. Then we began reading it online.

It's where we first read Catherine Austin Fitts' reports ( www.dunwalke.com ) on financial chicanery in places high and low.

Her reports had a familiar ring. One ring leads to another...

Bob Norman continues to compel our attention, as do posters beneath who, thru clearly dogged pursuit, prove that what at first may seem tangential and unrelated often proves to be pivotal.

yes they did part ways before the engagement...the RUMOR was she could not cope with his fondness for "other women" (again, RUMOR ONLY)....she left him and went back to NC I believe...Scott and his cronies and friends would meet EVERY Friday for lunch at the Capital Grille....liquor flowed like water....then the same men would show up in the VIP section of the Blue martini later Friday night....you could bank on it....same cars....same men...lots of "new" women every week...

99.9 % of you bloggers are a bunch of ignorant, immoral, low/no life, disgusting human beings I have ever come across. SR did wrong!!! YES will pay!!!YES!! but your hateful blogs are the most deplorable pieces of garbage I have ever read.

You AH's are filled with so much hate, it is just pouring out of your pores like poison.

The things you say about the wife/mother father is so vile...someday it will come back and hit you all right between your seedy eyes.

It is one thing to discuss the harm that SR has done to certain people and the community, but to spew this hate as you are doing is does not make any sense. There is no reason for it. Your words are so hate filled.

You people who know/knew him/them and took all the goodies they lavished on you when things were good... you didn't mind that now did you?... You just took and took and despised him/them while doing so. To those of you who did not know him/them... well you were just born to be jerk-offs. You all are no better than the next fraud.

Don't bother spewing hate on me because you will just verify what I am saying. Go get a fucking life instead of sitting on your computer all day speculating on what they did and did not do. ALL of the investors are just as guilty as SR...they knew what was going on!! ...Why don't you beat up on them !!!! Give me a break !!! ...

NO I am not Kimmieeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!! I doubt she would waste her time on this and hopefully she is not reading this crap...

@ G string 3:48

So....you think we are a bunch of ignorant bloggers....well you're still here...now your hooked on this blog....welcome aboard!

We know it's not Kimmie... she couldn't spelled 99% of the words in that blog.

So now we are getting pictures of a pimped out shitter !! ... Only in America.....

Just checking to see who is getting pissed on the truth that I wrote...First I am not noted as G string AH I am plain and "simple" (i mught as well beat you to the name calling) G...so get your facts right...Not related to any of the Rothsteins...Scott..Kimmieeeeeeee.....none..just a decent person trying to make sense of the hateful people in this town...and you have proven me correct by more of your vicious attacks...as I stated before you all are disgusting morons...just keep the the assualts coming so you can prove me right...come on more trash...more...more..are you all getting riled up now...you sick people...

Hey G ... DO THESE NUTZZZZZZZZZZz!

My 600k house is nicer than this piece of sh*t

Perhaps some people on this blog know or have known Scott and Kim Rothstein personally and feel entitled to share their opinions. I, for one, do know them. Naturally, I'm highly disappointed at the recent revelations of Scott's alleged wrongdoing. If proven true, he most definitely deserves to pay the price determined by our justice system. However, his family should be treated with the respect and privacy they deserve. Unless factual and from first-hand unbiased knowledge, badmouthing Kim and/or other relatives is cruel, childish and absolutely unfair. I've known Kim for many years and can attest to the fact that she's a good, kind and caring person. Of course she's human and therefore is not perfect like everyone else reading this ... but this is not the time to take advantage of an already sad and tough situation that she's been unexpectedly thrust into.

@ Unfair 8:22

It is about time some decent people start to speak up about these dumb-ass bloggers! The only difference between me and Unfair is she/he made her/his statement in a more reserved manner. I for one cannot take it so calmly...

@ make up your mind 8:29

Always looking for a slip of the tongue!! I have made up my mind...Your still all AH's..
and you all don't know the first thing about good taste. I don't know who made you Martha Stewart's all of a sudden....I would like to see your commodes...oh yeah.. a commode is known as a toilet in your world....

To G, Ditto, Unfair:

I just came on and started reading through pages and pages of comments. I don't care who knows who, who's full of it...

I have two comments. First, ranting about a person you don't know seems like an act of jealousy. Second, saying Kim is kind and caring is a stretch. I do know Kim and although she is not the evil, conniving, worthless person some have suggested, most in the circle at RRA and friends would agree that she knew Scott was cheating and tiring of her antics but she stayed for the money. But don't judge her too harshly. She did not participate in the big scam.

Who gives a shit if KIM was in on the scam. She was living it up way past her bed time and pay grade.

Party is over kids. Take your FUCKING medicine and shut your mouths.

She is your dime a dozen Blue Martini ex barntender that looks at ANYONE that has a buck to spend on them. Have you been living under a rock or are you from another galaxy? Or can't you find a woman to date. She is a piece of short bleached blonde blue contacts capped teeth fake tits midget ....I guarantee she used to vomit every time she had to give this schmuck a bj...in order to get the keys to her leased Bentley.

Look up her RE sales prior to her scam marriage..she was a 35 yr old middle age woman when she chose to enter into these scam marriage....what had she accomplished prior to her quote unquote as per their Las Olas Magazine 2007 spread....saying she landed the jackpot in terms of Ponzi Putz...

As I have stated previously....and coming from a single woman ICW homeowner sans a mortgage...or a moron who any girl with half a brain in S Fla can pussy whip if that is their goal....she ended up with a Crackpot...

He hung out at Blue Martini and targeted the dumbest blonde he good find for a front for his scam....if he was able to marry a smart girl with morals he wouldn't have been able to do the things he was doing.

1 in 75 men in Broward county is HIV. Gee I just want to run over to the Blue Martini and Capital Grille and meet the man of my dreams that spends hundreds of thousands of $$ at Pure Platinum on his off time from these other new money fraud invested joints they hang out at 7 days a week Lunch & Dinner.

Only reason they aren't there fror breakfast they don't serve it, and they are too busy nursing their hang overs from the day before.

And he claims he has litigated 150 cases?

Why hasnt KIP HUNTER been arrested? That ugly little troll KNEW EVERYTHING !

UGGGG someone needs the fire the decorator . The Gold Toilet lids and ridiculously over the top and hideously tacky .

Who is G? says: @4:30pm

NO NOT Gay R nor Godfather = SR NO !!

Is it impossible that there might be someone in Broward County that just finds these blogs so off the wall. Some of the statements being said are just down right cruel and do not pertain to the subject which is if any of you fools remember about what SR and all of these cheating lying investers have done. It is not about KR, parents or their taste in clothing and houses. You all need to stop this behavior, it just shows you have lack of intelligence and morals.......Give it a break..

I'm not a blogger, but I too must say something in defense of Kim. I have known her for over ten years. I, myself, am a college educated woman who has a good job, and supports myself independently. Kim IS a good person. She isn't the smartest bulb in the pack, but she didn't work at Blue Martini to "gold-dig". As a matter of fact, she worked at Elbo Room before that, and clearly wasn't looking for a sugar daddy there. Previous to Scott, she had never dated a man with money. Honestly, most of the guys she dated were broke and mostly loser types. Kim turned down advances from Scott for years before she finally went out with him...she did not care about the money even though she knew he was rich. After a while, he broke her down with his worship of her, she gave it a chance, and he swept her off of her feet. Most women would have done the same thing. Women date men more on their success than looks ALL OF TIME. Men date women purely on looks ALL OF THE TIME. What's really worse? Lastly, Kim did know that Scott cheated on her and she did stay....again....Women stay with cheaters ALL THE TIME REGARDLESS OF WEALTH. She loved him, and he promised to never do it again...sometimes your heart is stronger than your mind. Yes, she liked all of the fancy things. Who wouldn't? She came from nothing. She workied in disgusting bars to support herself. She's entitled to sacrifice looks for a better quality of life and some security.

Try spelling Scotty's Moroccan buddy's name Khalid Ahnich instead of Ahnick - he lives in Boca and apparently is helping Kim get set up in Morocco.
He's setting up a biz to help her gain residency there

VanessaVargo you say you feel like you know "personal charachter?" Well, first of all it's character but Kimmie was snobby??? For a chick that dye's her roots brown, has augmentation and is a $3 an hour barkeep at Blue Silicone she sure has nerve!

One of you said it, money don't come with instructions.
