I might add that I looked up this man's biography for laughs, but he seemed like the real deal who worked his way up. He just targeted his advertising.
More recently, he became a judge.

A Florida lawyer is accused of being a “serial bank robber,” who was busted this week as he allegedly headed to his sixth raid, federal prosecutors said.
Aaron Honaker, 41, is accused of holding up five Miami banks since Sept. 30 — but only successfully getting cash in two of them, and even then only $1,850, the US Attorney’s office said.
He was arrested after a detective spotted him downtown Tuesday — and was carrying a hammer and demanded notes as he confessed to heading to another planned robbery at a TD Bank, according to the Miami Herald, citing the criminal complaint.
Honaker is listed on the Florida Bar as a member in good standing. Both that and his LinkedIn page say he is with the Coral Gables-based firm of Martinez Morales — but the company told the Miami Herald he disappeared two years ago and never came back.
Duke University School of Law also denies he graduated from there, as he claims in his online profiles — with the Herald noting he is instead listed as having graduated from Wake Forest School of Law.

I guess Florida Man comes in all education levels.
Most lawyers are crooks...they just use the law to cover there tracks..
Drugs.
I appreciate a man who practices transparency in his business dealings.
"There's no proof of that! You have no proof! What gives you the right to make such an unfounded accusation! I demand an apology! You should be ashamed of yourself!"
$1850 total? Jeez dude, I can shoplift more than that in an afternoon. And not go to jail for 10 years.
He was cutting out the middle-man and robbing the source
He was s**ty lawyer.
“I can shoplift more than that in an afternoon. And not go to jail for 10 years.”
If you drive over to California, you can not go to jail at all!
Reminds me of a scene from The Wire, where a “stick up man” who robs drug dealers is being cross-examined by a sleazy defense lawyer who represents drug dealers:
Levy: “You are amoral, are you not? You’re feeding off the violence and the despair of the drug trade. You’re stealing from those who themselves are stealing the lifeblood from our city. You are a parasite who leaches off”
Omar: “Just like you”
Levy: “the culture of drugs. Excuse me? What?”
Omar: “I got the shotgun, you got the briefcase. It’s all in the Game though, right?”
He must suck at being a lawyer if he had to resort to out in the open theft....vs. Legalized theft.
You can educate them. You can dress them up. But deep down they are still Florida Men.
Never saw that but an excellent description of our reality.
If you don’t mind fast forwarding through the occasional HBO-mandated gay sex scene, it’s a pretty good show. Fortunately the scenes are pretty mild compared to most of their other shows. Definitely gives a good “inside baseball” look at how Democrat-run cities actually operate.

I thought attorney=robber was understood...
Reporter: “Why do you rob banks?”
Willie Sutton: “Because that’s where the money is.”
The Republican Party should have been running a National Campaign advertising to Criminals, Move to California where you can Steal $950 Per Day and NEVER get Arrested!!
