Subject: [MOPO] About Jamie Mendez Statements
Sean, Bruce (and others),
I've discussed this with Sean and with several other people who are "in
the know" privately, off-list. And all I can say is this:
If you (or anyone) has got private inside information that actually
*proves* something about Jamie Mendez then you (or anyone) can only do
one of two things publicly:
1) Tell the rest of us precisely what you know -- BUT...
2) -- that's probably not possible right now because of the
legal/lawsuit situation. So you have to restrain yourself about what
you say publicly about Jamie until the legal situation changes to where
you *can* tell us what you know.
Bottom Line: It is unfair, unethical and plain wrong to continue to
condemn Jamie publicly and urge that people stop doing business with
him based on hidden facts that are known only to you and a couple of
other people. We just don't do things that way in this country. Kerry
is different because there are several people who are eyewitness to him
selling and trading verified fakes who have already stepped forward and
made sworn, public statements to that=2
0effect, But as far as I know
there are no eyewitnesses who have come forward to testify to what they
personally *know* Jamie did or didn't do.
What you know may very well be completely true, but if you cannot tell
us what you know publicly, then you are under obligation not to make
*public* condemnations and recommendations based on private information
which you can't reveal at this time.
Given that, it's best to just let this matter play out in the legal
system, which is what Heritage has obviously decided and why they
continue to do business with Jamie until he is *proven* guilty -- or at
least until someone is willing to step up and make a sworn public
statement against him citing provable facts (as has already been done
with Kerry).
That's how it is supposed to work.

[MOPO] FAKES-Thing's Will Improve In The Hobby
Like Grey mentioned the sky is not falling. It
will get better. Even though ALL of this is indeed overwhelm
ing it's
best to try NOT to panic. I really believe things will stabilize
eventually in our hobby. Things will be better. We will learn from ALL
of this. Future accountability will help make this hobby better.
