He called again the other night. I picked up the phone once again thinking it was my friend Holly calling me back and boy, was I wrong. The ironic thing was (as there is always something ironic going on when he calls) I was watching "Mr. Brooks" about a guy in recovery who's a killer. Of course, fake cancer guy said he saw it which is probably also a lie.
Now fake cancer guy has called to tell me he has a name for the book that I am supposedly going to help him write: "Two Brothers: From Rags to Riches." "Only it's not about money," he says.
Yeah, you're right, it's not. Because you don't have any.
That was his good news he called to tell me - the title of the book he came up with.
Sorry, but that's not good news to me, I feel like saying to him. Good news concerning fake cancer guy would be that he's decided to jump off a cliff.
Do us all a favor.
In related news, a woman has fallen victim to a con artist and the judge won't back off the verdict of letting him go scot-free.
Supposedly New Jersey has a victim's bill of rights but it did Trish Ryan, formerly of Ocean City, NJ no good.
Dennis SanSeverino took her
home, cleaned out her inheritance, and left her with credit card debt, according to lovefraud.com. According to the Press of Atlantic City, his lawyer went for less damages since he had no job.
But then SanSeverino was charged with bouncing two $25,000 checks at an Atlantic City Casino. Despite all this, the judge reduced his monthly restitution to Trish. By the deadline he had only paid a little over $5,000 that he owed her by the deadline.
After being told she could no longer talk to the Victim Advocacy rep by a higher-up, Trish, understandably frustrated and angry sent a 12-page letter to the NJ Attorney General, the U.S. Attorney for that state, the Cape May County prosecutor, and numerous other legislators and involved parties.
"The defendant has managed to play with our legal system because he can," Trish wrote among other things.
She got some responses.
By going into the casino, the SanSeverino violated his probation terms.
So Ryan has continued to write letters despite being stonewalled by our elected officials.
Love Fraud even interviewed Trish and ran her story while attempting to get some kind of response from the county.
But, turns out they got the same results as she - nothing.
