Rick, Philipp and Doug,

 

As you know, there are always two sides to every story.  Not that any of you 
have, but others have already jumped to conclusions.  

 

I've known Jaime for over 15 years and anyone that knows Jaime knows that he is 
one of the nicest, laid back people you could meet.  Jaime is also one, who 
maybe to his own fault, could be a little gullible, but minds his own business 
and does not ask questions.  We don't know what 'line' he was given when he was 
asked to do whatever he may have done.    

 

Personally, I feel Jaime had way too much to lose to knowingly participate in 
this scam.  Every time I talked with him, he was always backed up with work and 
it would take a while for me to get my pieces done.  His restoration business 
was doing good.  I don't believe he received any profits or a percentage of the 
sale of the fake items.  I believe he was paid only for the work he did.  

 

Of course, I could be wrong, but I really don't think so.
