Just saw this on NBC3 in San Jose. Fraud suit in Los Angeles has resultd in a Guilty verdict against the Simon family owned investment firm that was sued by an investor. 65 million awarded plus 22 million punitive.
I guess they didn't get an OJ jury.
Nothing follows Yet!
We haven't heard anything about this case, which is hard to understand given Davis' proclivity to personal attacks. Nothing on the NBC3 site or the LA Times site about it. Are they sure it's even the same 'Simon?'

Didn't Davis rip on the oil people???
The Court Decision Is Fundamentally Flawed - The decision is fundamentally flawed and it is expected that the judge will set aside this judgment or it will be overturned on appeal.
Former Pacific Coin Executive Ed Hindelang Is A Convicted Drug Trafficker - When the company first invested in Pacific Coin, it engaged a number of independent consultants to conduct due diligence on the company. It was later discovered that Hindelang concealed facts about his background and was actually a convicted drug felon who had drug proceeds that were later forfeited to the federal government.
Hindelang Was Suspended As Soon As His Criminal Activities Were Known - The company immediately suspended him in December 1998; a thorough investigation confirmed his background as a drug dealer, which resulted in his termination in May 1999.
As an Assistant U.S. Attorney, Bill Simon Fought To Keep Drug Dealers Off the Street - When Bill Simon was a federal prosecutor, he fought to keep drug kingpins off our streets through asset forfeiture and enforcement of our criminal laws, and he certainly is intent on keeping them out of any businesses in which he’s involved.
Hindelang Is Exactly the Type of Criminal Simon Used to Pursue - Hindelang has admitted he was simultaneously negotiating his asset forfeiture at the same time he was negotiating to sell a partnership interest in Pacific Coin. Ed Hindelang, the individual involved in this lawsuit, is precisely the kind of criminal Simon used to pursue.
