Hitting Up Today's Rothstein Auction

• That's the gods honest truth. Kim is top notch, perfection when it comes to hardcore fuck and suck sessions. The crazyiest thing is that she has somehow avoided any of the stories from coming out. I guess for the same reason as me. Because in the back of our minds, there is the fear that somehow it will get us hurt or killed in the long run. But.. Fuck me. She is as advertised, and delivers like fedex

• I think this auction is as Heinous as the crime again"two wrongs don't make this ok"I think anyone that attends this mordern day stoneing are sick and cruel and no better than low class sick twisted freaks this is a very sad day for KR to have her pictures of herself up for auction at a judge's discretion is so WRONG this whole story is just unbeleivable this just plain and simple WRONG.

Certainly not the lawfirm that has a bunch of old geasers on staff. Only time will tell. Scott's Response: First things first Matt....learn to spell...it will make your comments appear to have come from someone other than a moron. Second....try not to speak about things you know nothing about. You would be amazed as to what you can accomplish by working hard and caring about what you do. Serve your clients well, care for your family and friends, and give back to your community with all your heart and the rest will fall into place. Take care, Scott W.

The Feds must be licking their chops to bring this guy down. The fall will be much quicker and more spectacular than the rise. Enjoy the ride before it ends.**** Scott's response: Dear Mr. or Mrs. Florida90, Where do i begin??? Let's start with the following: you write as if you actually know what you are talking about when in reality you know nothing about my firm, nothing about how we operate, nothing about what types of cases we handle, nothing about the fees we generate, nothing about what other businesses we are in and what they earn, and nothing about what other businesses I am in and what they earn. Simply, you have no idea what you are writing about. You write out of some sort of anger that makes you want to hurt others and to see others hurt. And to make matters worse you are too much of a frightened little soul to use your name when making such outrageous and slanderous comments. Among our many other practice groups, we have one of the strongest plaintiff's personal injury groups and mass tort groups in the State of Florida if not in the country. We also have one of the strongest plaintiff's labor and employment law practice groups in the country. Apparently, among others, you missed Russ Adler's recent 27 million dollar verdict in a sex abuse case. And you also fail to realize that most of the really strong cases...the big money cases, settle quietly and confidentially out of court. Thanks for all your concern about our well being but we are doing just dandy. Wishing you only the best, Scott W. Rothstein Another comment on that blog: In a world filled with greed, envy and destruction, I found a safe place to call home, my extended family (which we are all referred to as)....Rothstein, Rosenfeldt & Adler. I have been fortunate to be part of the most wonderful place to work. Everyone smiles, everyone is treated with equal respect and as a peer and EVERYONE enjoys going to work. How many people can actually say that about their jobs?? All of you negative people are suffering from mean spirited "jealousy". Mr. Rothstein is not only the most generous person I have ever met, he is of the utmost integrity, compassionate, loyal to the core, extremely hard working and simply stated "blessed". The world would be a better place with more people like him! Another comments: Should we be impressed wrote: With William Scherer, Sr as a client on fee disputes, and Ken Jenne on staff, Mr. Rothstein has, at least in my book, associated himself with several I believe who have SERIOUS ethical lapses, both having to do with government roles. One can only wonder who the past judges are.**** were they disgraced ?? Mr. Rothstein is a high roller who takes risks and loves big plays apparently. He's a businessman first.**** like Mr. Scherer and Mr. Jenne. Shouldn't he be a LAWYER first ?? What an interesting legal environment in Broward, you just never know when the entertainment will stop., More leaves to look under. Power politics and deals. Just what we need. Why did he leave New York. They rise, they fall.**** sort of like bread in the oven. Thanks for letting us know who to keep our eyes on. Bill Scherer is a brilliant attorney and has always conducted himself with the utmost integrity. I am proud to represent him and proud to say that he was one of my political mentors. Ken Jenne made a terrible mistake and paid for it dearly. Do you not believe in second chances??? Is it your life policy to forever ban from your life anyone who has done something wrong??? Must be a very lonely existence. Ken is brilliant, caring and compassionate and I am proud to have him as part of my team. As for the Judges that are my partners, you need not wonder who they are. All you had to do was conduct a search on the internet before writing a comment geared to harm those who have never done anything to you. Judge Berger was one of the most respected jurists to serve palm beach county and was named "jurist of the year" in 2006. Judge Stone served his community well as one of the most respected members of the 4th District Court of Appeal, serving for over 20 years, authoring some of the most important decisions of our time. Scott W. Rothstein. Gay D Rothstein wrote: Obviously, I know Scott Rothstein well. He believes strongly in helping family (i.e.: a 97 year old grandmother on down to nieces and nephews and everyone inbetween); also friends and, at every opportunity, he gives back to the community.

He "feeds" a lot of people, but anyone who "bites the hand that feeds them" is going to get bitten back and will learn a hard lesson.

To whom it may concern: Don't mess with my mom....as you can see she has never really left the Bronx. Thanks Mom... Love ya, Me :-)

• Mr. Lichtman...SR and KR don't have a daughter...SR has a daughter from a previous relationship but not with KR.

• Accused Ponzi schemer Rothstein loses fight to keep wife's photos out of auction http://www.sun-sentinel.com/news/broward/fort-lauderdale/fl-rothstein-auction-wife-20100122,0,1223196.story FORT LAUDERDALE - A federal bankruptcy judge refused Friday to block the sale of photos of Ponzi scheme suspect Scott Rothstein's wife posing with various public figures like Bill Cosby and Gov. Charlie Crist. Rothstein had asked that seven photos showing his wife Kimberly be withheld from an auction to be held Saturday to reimburse his alleged victims. Rothstein, 47, is set to plead guilty next week to charges he ran a $1.2 billion fraud out of his Fort Lauderdale law firm. U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Raymond Ray said Rothstein had already put the photos in the public domain and used them in the commission of a crime, specifically, to lure investors and make himself appear more legitimate. "Mr. Rothstein has them out there for a purpose," Ray said. The photos showed Kimberly Rothstein with Cosby, Crist, Dan Marino, U.S. Sen. John and Cindy McCain, California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, U.S. Sen. Joe Lieberman, Mel Martinez and Sarah Palin. Mike Seese, Scott Rothstein's bankruptcy attorney, said his client was concerned the photos would wind up in restaurants and other establishments. "Mr. Rothstein feels that his wife has been through enough," Seese said. But attorney Chuck Lichtman, who is representing the bankruptcy trustee, said it was "selfish" of Rothstein to want to keep those photos. He said they had value. "It's a waste of time and quite literally offensive," Lichtman said. Lichtman said both sides had previously agreed to prevent the sale of purely personal photos, such as those showing Rothstein's wife with their daughter. Also exempt are some personal religious items, like a Torah and other spiritual books found at his law office. More than 500 items are expected to be auctioned, including an alligator-skin sofa and a football signed by members of the 1972 "Perfect Season" Miami Dolphins. The auction will be held at AMC Liquidators, 3705 W. Commercial Blvd., in Fort Lauderdale, beginning at 10 a.m. Saturday.

• @Christy please stop trying to play the dumb blonde..you are playing mind games..you have been posting from the get go not to know the difference between all of the L's

• @ Leticia: My boyfriend is going to the auction to possibly bid on some stuff (secretly for Kim). do tell us how KR plans to pay for any of the precious momentos your boyfriend may pick up at the auction for her. is the fbi giving her an allowance (taxpayer $$$$$)?

• @christy This guy said that they paid an employee at each business to help them. They have fudged with all his medical files, blood work, diagnosis. Everyone that was in a position to help him all had operations or a family member had one to keep them occupied. Then everyone is instructed to say the same thing and tell him he is crazy. He reported this and now they are all waving and friendly. Every singel person involved has been doing this to him since his childhood. It was a plan that was carried out since his childhood. The plan was to have him claimed mentally incompetant so they could steal his estate. All of the shenanigans was premeditated. All the people involved were all friends of his family. Isn't always the accountant and business partner? This goes deeper and included elected officials, police and law firms. The government had known all because they have been listening since his family entered the US. They have helped him. He's left asking why? Why couldn't they have let him have his career and quietly have taken the estate? Why such sloppy obvious work? The technique used leads right to the people responsible. The technique is what Michael Jackson was saying also. Michael said he was isolated. This guy is saying the same thing.

• All I wanna know is when is tough guy Ovy going to shove a cigar up Paki Moe's ass!!! I am still waiting!!! If i were a tough guy and some Paki was walking around saying he rubbed my cigars on his paki sack so everyone would laugh when I smelled and licked them i would hurt the bastard.

It was all acquired with OPM thru theft and deception. Even most of his 'partnerships and investments' were started with an intent to defraud and steal from the very people he 'courted'. WAKE UP! Posted On: Friday, Jan. 22 2010 @ 9:01AM

• Okay so Levin is the local "king-Pin". Levy is the local "butcher". Rothstein is the local "fall Guy". Where is Levin and Levy today? Where is Rothstein today? Pulpbusters still have alot of work to do.

• Paul V, Are you single? I have a neighbor lady friend who would be PERFECT for you. Do you ever get to our neck of the woods?

• Christy...Christy...Christy...we are all so surprised at you...you still don't know the players?Levin didn't ask for police protection the day before SR took his little joy ride to M...it was Ovi Levy...from Renado Watch Co. and who is with (and Father)the Israeli Mafia.They play by diferent rules...they are the ones who told old SR to go back to the states and return their money or his parents (and maybe KR) hands would be sent to him in a box.Got it?Levin was the ring leader...it was because of his $$$ that SR was able to continue...SR was such a Bozo...does anyone think HE could have done this?!?Remember the email where Levin says to SR that he can put in another $300 M and SR reply was, "no, lets let it go..." and that's when THE END came...Levin is the one who is truly responsible for these big number losses.SR was too sick and simple minded to EVER pull this off!

• Scott Rothstein Song! Turn up the volume! http://www.metrolyrics.com/viva-la-vida-lyrics-coldplay.html Here are the lyrics: Viva La Vida: I used to rule the world Seas would rise when I gave the word Now in the morning I sleep alone Sweep the streets I used to own I used to roll the dice Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes Listen as the crowd would sing: "Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!" One minute I held the key Next the walls were closed on me And I discovered that my castles stand Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing Roman Cavalry choirs are singing Be my mirror my sword and shield My missionaries in a foreign field For some reason I can't explain Once you go there was never, never an honest word That was when I ruled the world (Ohhh) It was the wicked and wild wind Blew down the doors to let me in Shattered windows and the sound of drums People couldn't believe what I'd become Revolutionaries wait For my head on a silver plate Just a puppet on a lonely string Oh who would ever want to be king? I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing Roman Cavalry choirs are singing Be my mirror my sword and shield My missionaries in a foreign field For some reason I can't explain I know Saint Peter will call my name Never an honest word But that was when I ruled the world (Ohhhhh Ohhh Ohhh) I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing Roman Cavalry choirs are singing Be my mirror my sword and shield My missionaries in a foreign field For some reason I can't explain I know Saint Peter will call my name Never an honest word But that was when I ruled the world Oooooh Oooooh Oooooh

• DO you all think it is the right thing to auction all of SR personal property i think SR lawyer is correct this a "macabre" this is NOT Civil two wrongs don't make this right.

• Remember anons are invisible.. they don't exist! Keep up the great research!

• @ christy Don't listen to them. You are very good at what you do. When the anons get on your case means you have pushed on a truth button. I hope your kid feels better today.

• I keep focusing on Levy......

• I DID confuse Levin and Levy, Thanks Levin, Levy, Levinson......

• @ Christy Give it up sweetie you ain't no Columbo!!!as you all THINK you are..............

• Christy, I think you are confusing Levin with Levy.

• Christy, You're gonna get your RA title yanked again. That was Ovi Levy who got the money and asked for police protection.

• @ christy Why didn't Levin just hire an armed security guard? Why the police dept? Why did Ovi, SR and Levin use the police dept and not a security company? This guy I talk about that this group harrassed had to hire a security company the harrassment got so bad. He called the FTPD and the person that answered the phone said the police didn't do this. He explained that where he had lived in Coral Gables their police liked off duty extra work and his family his whole life had always paid the police for parties etc so the guests would be safe. The police and the Sun Sentinel changed the guys name also and made sure the whole way up to DC in every hotel he stayed in to change his name in the hotels also. It is the worst case of harrassment I have ever seen and everyone in the entire state of Florida turned a blind eye. This is why it is such a big crime. The harrassment is still going on and he realizes it was not just SR, he was part of it. It is a large network and he says its about 100 people they have involved. His phone and computer have been compromised. He can't believe it. All this just to steal an estate and his identity. He still can't wrap his head around that everyone in the community knew and thought it was fun stealing. He just sits in his house because they took everything away from him, all his friends and anyone that has ever known him, the Florida medical board where he holds a liscense, his mortgage company, the insurance companies. Anyone else that this has happened to should report this.

• What are these auctioneers smoking??? This warehouse is filled with "italianate", reproduction oversized furniture that can be bought at any City Furniture or Rooms to Go. Walk into any of these stores and this is the first furniture you will see. There is OBVIOUSLY some kind of scam going on with the inflated prices paid for this low end, fake run of the mill furniture found in any South Florida furniture store. DON'T GET CONNED AGAIN.

• Then the other question. Why did Levin ask for Police protection to sit outside his home in uniform, the day before Rothstein Fled to Morocco? http://blogs.browardpalmbeach.com/pulp/2009/11/scott_rothstein_police_protection.php

• Sold; You need to relax. She converted to Judaism. She's out of our hands. Peace be with you. JC Sold American says: If you take away Kim's collagen, botox, breast implants, facial plasyic surgery, ass lift, and hair bleaching what do you have left? I wouldn't bid more than 50 cents for her. In fact she would have to pay me $500 an hour and pay for the scrubbing and innoculations I would need after being with her. She's a dime a dozen slut with the brain of a dim wit.

• Brain Teaser: In the end, Scott Rothstein on his way to Morocco was Wiring money to Levin. BIg Money. Why?

• Speaking of Levin, we need to concentrate on the french Levins - presented as LeVin. Ryan LeVin has to be investigated for the death of two British tourists who were crossing the street on the way to the Courtyard hotel. What's the status of this case? Who is working on it??

• Listen to Robert Vesco !. He know what he is talking about.

• dustin my boyfriends face says: Dustin, you must start at the beginning. Where did Levin get the money (or did he have any investors, really)? What was the source of those funds? Did they come from a Trust in the BVI? Was it a "loan"? etc. Read up - money laundering, 101. Trust me -- Levin did not get played. Nor did Barry boy and most of the others. They're just perfecting their game. In the end, they will all be millions richer -- with assets sitting in some offshore account, washed clean.

• @ Menachem Mendel lll I suggest masks and protective suits for anyone within 50 yards twenty minutes after consumption.

• @ baked beans You sound like an excellent cook and no doubt you husband must be extremely proud of you and rightfully so. Thanks for the receipe and I will get back to you as to the results.

• Joe DiMaggio had JFK killed!! I have video and audio proof.

• @ Menachem Mendel lll Sorry, I was getting my husband a beer and I slipped on the ketchup and pancake syrup that's stuck on the floor from last week. No, never heard of Vorspeise. Just stick to my light snack of hot dogs, baked beans, apple pie, corn fritters, peanut butter and jelly sandwich, jar of peanuts, gallon of ice cream and a six back of Milwaukees Finest. Didn't have time for dinner tonight. I was busy buzzin the beaver.

• @ Christy and Herb Levin was not taken for a ride, darlings; he was this train's engineer. He's too smart a business man to throw good money after bad if he didn't think he was MCing the show. He could have cheerfully skinned SR alive ... not for bilking him out of millions ... but because he knew exactly what was going on and was not happy that SR was going to blow the whistle on the whole thing before he, Levin, got all his money out. You'll see; it will all come out in the wash.

• @ Dustin You are so right about Levin. I strongly suspect he masterminded the whole scheme; as to why he kept reinvesting ... to make more and more, of course. In fact, he begged SR not to give up the ghost and to keep it going. He's as crooked as they come. SR is minor league compared to him.

• @Baked Beans Mazel Tov and Congratulations on a job well done. Regretfully me can't partake in what sounds like a beautiful bouqet and aroma. Could you describe for us on a scale of 1-10 the "REEK coefficent" so we or better yet me, can vicariously "enjoy" the experience. Baked Beans, have you tried wolfing down a few dozen rotten swine testicles as an appetizer or in German Vorspeise.

• You guys are roughing it. All the way into the 70's you could get opiates over the counter in certain medications. You didn't need to go to the Dr and pay for a visit and get a diagnosis. You just needed a stomachache and a ride to Rexall. Gourmet magazine when it began had all Liquor ads. Then as it grew its advertisers changed. Gourmet went out of business this yr. I think it began in the 50's. New Times has its great new look. Speaking of drugs. I had a friend that made a documentary on meth labs and addicts in rural America. She said people would sell their urine in bread because there was meth in it. They would sell their scabs for the same reason. The meth moonshine version is so toxic they get these scabs and itch all the time. The city meth we have here is different. How low can you go? The police have stopped busting them because it cost $12,000.00 each arrest and to process them. The only places that are helping to rehap them are the churchs. Moral here: Go to the Dr and get a script.

• @ Baked Beans Hey honey, bring me another beer!

• Man, am I gassy!! My house stinks. My ass stinks. Even my dog couldn't take it and left the room. Oh boooyyyy. That was a good one. deep, long and loud. And the aroma is magnificent.

• Down payments are needed for loan A. Levin is slick shit, but he did not win. He also personally guaranteed the investments of the outside investors. That means you are personally liable for all loses. I would bet if Levin had to do it all over again he would not repeat. He did get played, bad. By the time the personal lawsuits are settled he will be out a few hundred million. Scott out-scummed even the scummiest. Magical in it's own right. Scott was incredible for all the wrong reasons. Remember, "Only in America" - D. King

• @What happened? Don't worry Bro, you is not alone that I can promise you. Me is up until at the very minimum until my Flomax kicks in and perhaps longer. Relax cousin 'What happened', the night shift doesn't start hoppin' until 1:59 AM.

• Just like it is impossible for Michael Jackson's Doctor Conrad Murray to walk away a free and clean man even though for many it is yesterday's news his legal nightmare has yet to begin. It is also only a matter of time before the $75,000.00 Chopper rider will be reacquainted with his long lost 'friend's' that he apologized to ad nauseum in his pre Yom Kippurim soliloquy only because he knew for sure the Yacht, RR, 5* Restauarnts, Bentley, Farrari, Lambo, Bugatti, Choheba, $5K glorfied pic pen, Cognac, 80" plasma, $2 million home AV system, $10,000 William Fioravanti suits party is over.

• It's 11:30 and no one is around. A few weeks ago this blog was jumping. It sucks here now!!

• @ The Man Pull over dude. Aren't you aware that the New Times paper and this website contain ads for 86 pain clinics (pill mills) where anyone can go get their own drugs for cheap. Now move on and don't waste your time here. I should give you a ticket for stupidity.

• all: think we ae all SRothstein'd out, lets move on. he will go to jail and others with him. next story. lets now focus on knucklehead politicians that have compromised the peoples trust, and votes. SR is old news.

• I've got pain pills for sale. Fresh from the pharmacy, just written by multiple pain clinics in Broward and Palm Beach counties. I can get all you want. I'll just recruit more people to go to the doctors. Percocett, Vicodin, Lorcett, Oxycontin, Morphine, Tuinall, Seconall, anything at all. Step right up, don't be shy. Buy tonight, get fucked up tomorrow. No Huss, No Fuss. Or just donate money so we can give our middle and high school students more drugs. Afterall, they only have a certain amount of friends over 18 who can go to the doctors. And Mom and Dad's medicine cabinet is running low. Come on, have a heart. Afterall, They Are Legal!! Step right up

• @Confused? You must be confused. Nobody has ever played Levin. Educate yourself about him. Try this - Mortgage a property with bank "A", take a 2nd out (with a company that you own), never pay a dime on the 2nd and (the company that you own) forcloses on Levin and bank "A" and gets clean deed. How can you make that shit happen? I dunno, but he did it. You can't play a player.

• Oh, I'm sorry...how rude of me. Goodnight Kim. I hope you have sweet dreams about jail.

• Kill all the social programs. No medicare, no welfare, no medicaid, no food stamps, no subsidies, no tax credits, no unemployment insurance, no nothing. If you haven't got the money don't ask me to pay for you. No more free rides. Go live in the park or commit suicide. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH....Kill the health bill!!

• If you take away Kim's collagen, botox, breast implants, facial plasyic surgery, ass lift, and hair bleaching what do you have left? I wouldn't bid more than 50 cents for her. In fact she would have to pay me $500 an hour and pay for the scrubbing and innoculations I would need after being with her. She's a dime a dozen slut with the brain of a dim wit.

• @ model citizen I have been watching the same on MSMBC. Tomorrows headlines definitely are going to include the word Prostitute.

• So true, MM. Someone here recently questioned the existence of Karma. As a supernatural force, perhaps they are correct, but in practice, your bad deeds sure do seem to come back and eventually bite you on the old brown star.

• herb caen entertainment award says: Supreme court rules 5-4 corporations can spend what they want on elections. Special interests and lobbyists have more power than ever now. ___________________________________________ herb, This is a sad day for America. This quote pretty much sums it up: "We are moving to an age where we won't have the senator from Arkansas or the congressman from North Carolina, but the senator from Wal-Mart and the congressman from Bank of America," said Melanie Sloan, director of Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington.

• @ Menachem 10:32pm LOL Last yr someone dumped a ton of shoes on the Palmetto Expressway. They had to stop traffic to clean them up. SR would have dumped all KR Manolo Blahniks on the Palmetto.

• Dont know who is guilty anymore except for SR. But, the article recently quoted Levin re-invested all the money back into the ponzi. Maybe he is guilty, maybe not. But, why would he perpetually re-invest the money if he knew it was a scam. Any crook would at least get their initial investment back and then worry about playing with the houses money. Anybody who knows a scam, knows eventually someone ends up holding the bag. If he was on the inside why would he wait to get burned and not at least milk out what he invested initially before the collapse. Doesn't make sense. Levin seems to have beed played, as was Von allmen. Sometimes the student gives the teacher a lesson.

• @Model Citizen I agree with All That Glitters, Rich people do not become wealthy by looking for ways to throw away money that was earned though that horrible 4 letter word W-O-R-K. To throw away $45,000.00 his 'investors' money because in his neurotic mind the party was never going end due to end because of his superior intellect why delay gratification when he wants it yesterday? IMHO this is why The Hebraic-Irish-Colonel is vilifed to the level of Imelda Marcos. Bernie Madoff, Michael Milken even Gordon Gekko did not go out of their way to flaunt belittle and ridicule people of all walks of life as Scott Rothstein did in a few short years.

• @ christy Thanks for the refresher. This has been going on for so long and has so many aspects. I forgot about how Levin offered to save it from collapsing. I'm having a hard time wraping my head around why? His parents and some very smart people were around him. why? It must have been the coke. He bottomed out.

• There was nothing there I would bid on. There were a couple things I liked. The Godfather photo collage was cool and the map mini bar. But all things that I could get without the bad SR mojo.

• @ Herb Without "George Levin" The whale , the mark.... Sr would have failed earlier in his sceme.. As A Previous Bob Norman article said... "Here's the kicker: Scherer says Levin kept rolling his returns back into the scheme and never took any profits. "Levin let it ride," Scherer says. "Rather than take it out, he would reinvest it back in. He thought he had $850 million in it total [with the profits]. If he would have tried to call in his money, it would have collapsed a lot sooner." Suddenly it makes more sense. I wondered how Rothstein managed to steal so much (from appearances, at least a couple of hundred million during the past two years), keep his Ponzi going for so long, and still have $230 million left to plunder during his break-out in October. It looks like Levin-related money is the answer. He was Rothstein's biggest mark."

• A lawyer died and arrived at the pearly gates. To his dismay, there were thousands of people ahead of him in line to see St. Peter. To his surprise, St. Peter left his desk at the gate and came down the long line to where the lawyer was, and greeted him warmly. Then St. Peter and one of his assistants took the lawyer by the hands and guided him up to the front of the line, and into a comfortable chair by his desk. The lawyer said, 'I don't mind all this attention, but what makes me so special?' St. Peter replied, 'Well, I've added up all the hours for which you billed your clients, and by my calculation you must be about 193 years old!'

• Supreme court rules 5-4 corporations can spend what they want on elections. Special interests and lobbyists have more power than ever now.

• @ christy I hope your kid gets better soon. SR crimes were not all like Madoff. SR started up in 2005. SR had messed up records of transactions. Extortion, bank acct. robberies. Off Shore accts., forged guardianships etc... Madoffs' clients had accounts for years with him. He had been at it for 50 yrs. Bernie ran all transactions through the Chase Bank. How long has George Levin been running his?

• The IMF cancelled all debt that Haiti owes on loans.

• "Unforgiveable & Unexcuseable" Just like Madoff.

• I was going to go take a look for fun but when I read through the list of stuff up for auction, it looks like all junk. Lots of "Kevin Charles" (for Rooms-to-Go or some such) furniture, used appliances, and a couple of photo's that maybe you could sell on Ebay once Vanity Fair does an article. I'm gonna pass...

• @Model Citizen and Christy $45,000 to have it delivered early! The super rich wouldn't even spend their money on that. That's the key word their money. He squandered other peoples money! The dirty dog

• The show says it will take at least 1 year to see the damage and results of these scams...For Rothstein to strike a plea deal is smart because I think we will see more damage caused by Rothstein as time goes by. Rothstein is trying to get a deal before "atomic bomb"; are uncovered. For Example, today hearing SR paid $45,000 like a lunatic. Millions of dollars of OPM he gave away.

• @herb caen: Unfortunately the cigars had to be destroyed. Someone at the auction house noticed rash-like sores on some of them and tests detected the presence of the herpes virus. The lab said it was a Pakistani strain.

• @ Christy: Madoff. Same story here in Broward. One man, one scam when all is done. Maybe less than 5 other arrests post SR conviction. Small town, small town cover up. National Liquidators will have the boats in 2-4 months. That's the auction you want to go to, interesting folks at Bernie's auction?

• most horrible of all = This one man from MA starting from 2000 up until 2008 contacted the SEC several times and nothing was done!

• I had previously seen this. I'm it watching again. The words they used to describe what it's done to charities Atom bomb devasted. Everyone should watch this to get total insight into his $65 BILLION scam.

• Please go away Chaz. Go to your own blog and post your lame material, instead of stinking up this place.

• If your near a TV Check channel 31 ... Scam of the Century/Bernie Madoff . They will be discussing how smart people became Madoff's victims.

• @ butter SR robbed someones identity that had a rather large account and gave it to everyone in town. Everyone in town knew. Everything he did was a mimic of this guys life. Crime of the century. He was watched for quite some time. All of them were. Pulps telling it the best. It must have been alot of money, RIP involved. What happened to the illegal Cuban cigars?

• Channel 31 CNBC Good story on about Madoff, on now

• When do we get to bid on the contents of his house? That is where the good shit is. This is just an ego collection and retail stuff.

• Doesn't it look like Anna Nicole is getting crushed from behind in that picture.

• Thanks Godfather3 I'd just about given up caring but did they say what it was worth?

• @G3 You gonna bid on anything?

• Wow he didn't just skim a little for himself like most crooks do he freaking squandered the money like a child. And Kim didn't notice anything wrong with the picture. Unbelievable.

• @ glitter girl There is no reserve the starting bid is whatever anyone bids. Its an absolute auction.

• @Anonymous @8:46 Not Nice Not nice at all!

• I wonder why dickweed paid an extra $45,000 to receive those chairs a week earlier. Was it a phony quick-ship fee to somehow launder some cash?

• @sick child my tuckos whoa, you are desperate. but she is a tease isnt she.my guess 205 pounds of research.

• @ Sick Child Have the Benadryl and sudafed receits and leftover homemade chicken soup. True Story.

• @Dustin Mifartz Thanks- We'll know next week what it sells for. If it sells at all. The more I see this gaudy over priced stuff the more I wonder who would bid on this shit.

• That's OK Christy- I was just curious. In the whole scheme of things it won't change my life one way or the other. I wish your child a speedy recovery.

• Hey, Bob, the Fisher Auction Company should give you a commission for promoting the upcoming event. Did old man Fisher know who you were? Does he read the Pulp???

• @All That Glitters..... I believe it's no reserve.

• @ Glitters I was joking, I had a sick child home today, I didn't go.

• @Christy Since you were there. I've asked so many times, can you tell me what the starting bid for the Godfather painting is? I'm sure it's the old saying "If you have to ask you can't afford it"
