Ruja Ignatova - the 'Ponzi Queen'

Ruja Ignatova called herself the Cryptoqueen.

Ruja Ignatova is a Bulgarian convicted fraudster. She is best known as the founder of Ponzi scheme OneCoin in 2014, described as "one of the biggest scams in history". She has been on the run since 2017. In early 2019 she was charged in absentia by U.S. authorities for wire fraud, securities fraud and money laundering.

In June 2016 the then 36-year-old Ruja, renowned for her expensive dresses and red lipstick, walked on stage at Wembley Arena in front of adoring fans. She told the cheering crowd that OneCoin was on course to become the world's biggest cryptocurrency. OneCoin, Ruja spewed, was the Bitcoin Killer. "In two years, nobody will speak about Bitcoin any more!" she shouted. The truth was OneCoin wasn't just a fake cryptocurrency, it was a classic pyramid scheme, with the fake coin as its product. The company claimed to have more than 3 million members worldwide.

OneCoin generated some 3.4b euros ($4b) in revenue from the fourth quarter of 2014 to the third quarter of 2016, but had zero value. The location of Ruja Ignatova remains a mystery.

Italian cop raid nets dormice—mafia delicacy

Italian cops found a cache of 235 frozen dormice, which are a protected species in Italy. They also found more in cages being fattened up for slaughter. The creatures are a favorite of the ’Ndrangheta, whose members believe eating them during important meetings brings wisdom. They are also on the menu when warring clans make peace. Dormice were widely consumed in ancient Rome, often stuffed with ground pork and pine nuts.

The dormouse population is in rapid decline both in number and range. Many species are extinct. Their habitat tends to be old woodland, which is also in decline.

The Hells Angels Nomads in Ottawa made their comeback in 2018 after violent in-fighting in the summer of 2016. For 20 years the Sherbrooke Hells Angels enjoyed huge profits from drug sales in Ottawa and Sudbury. The Nomads expanded there after arrests in 2009 decimated the Quebec HA. Drug revenue dwindled as the Nomads paid no tax. There would be consequences. On April 16, 2016 Ontario Nomads vice-president Phil Boudreault was shot off his bike in Lachute. He is said to be in a wheelchair. In August Martin Bernatchez, president, was shot three times in Sherbrooke. According to cops it was Ontario Nomads who broke club rules. When this happens the club doesn't hestitate in eliminating the problem. Boudreault and Bernatchez in better days.

Surrey police chief Norm Lipinski = $21,943 in overtime, so far

Oinker Norm Lipinski has hit the jackpot.

Surrey’s incoming swine chief Norm Lipinski is drawing fire for the $21,943 in overtime he's booked in less than 8 months. The new piggy boss has a base salary of $285k. Lipinski has billed taxpayers for about 160 extra hours, or close to five hours per week for his valuable services. The overtime revelation came from a freedom of information request. Had that not happened taxpayers would still be ignorant. Surrey Coun. Brenda Locke called the overtime payments to Lipinski “shameful” and “ridiculous.” Former West Vancouver police chief Kash Heed expressed his own shock at the overtime bill. “It is unheard of in the police community that a chief or any executive officer gets paid overtime. The practice is they keep a book and use that as time off.”

Surrey estimated the new piggy force would cost $45m but that figure rose to $63.7m. The final bill will be far higher and it doesn't take a genius to figure out that larceny is the problem. Opponents of Norm Lipinski (2 elderly ladies from "Keep the RCMP in Surrey") learned he uses a private email while doing public business.

They were threatened with a lawsuit on Aug 18, 2021. The cease and desist letter from Keri Bennett at Roper Greyell accused them of “unlawfully use and distribute [Lipinski’s] personal email address.”

Lipinski, while Deputy Chief on the Delta Police, hired a public relations firm for $43,666.88 of public money to “defend” the actions of Chief Neil Dubord’s wife on Centennial Beach on June 6, 2020. Lorraine Dubord was investigated for possible assault and threats after the incident, when she sprayed Kiran Sidhu with a hose.

Last mobster tied to Boston art heist dies

Robert Gentile, a mobster who cops suspected in a 1990 museum heist has died of a stroke at age 85. Its thought he once had possession of some of the artwork taken from the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in Boston. 13 pieces from the collection, including works from Rembrandt, Vermeer and Degas were lifted. The art has never been found. Among the stolen works was 'The Concert', one of 34 known works by Vermeer and thought to be the most valuable stolen painting at over $200 million. Some $500 million worth of art, including Rembrandt’s 'Storm on the Sea of Galilee' was stolen.

'The Concert' by Vermeer

The Gardner heist was carried out by two men dressed like cops who overpowered a night security guard who had buzzed them in. During a polygraph test, Gentile had an intense reaction when shown images of the missing paintings, while he remained calm when shown unrelated artwork. The museum offered a reward of $5m. In 2017 this was doubled to $10m with an expiration date set to the end of that year.

'A Lady and Gentleman in Black' by Rembrandt, painted in 1633.

31 years after the heist, the empty frames still hang in the Gardner Museum. 'Chez Tortoni' by Manet.

Shahin Behroyan - Stinking Cabbage

Realtor Shahin Behroyan has lost his appeal of a five year licence suspension for stealing $75k from a client.

Behroyan was described as crooked, corrupt, greedy, and using dirty money.

Shahin Behroyan had his bumhole in a twist when he sued fellow realtor Reza Mousavy in 2017. Mousavy outted the Teresa Decotiis/Behroyan $75k fraud, and among other things termed Behroyan a 'stinking cabbage', which seems pretty ironic as a few years later he was involved in the Haddad's celery root scam MEAT.c

In another ironic bum twister, the realtor association spanked Mousavy for outing the fukkin fraud of Behroyan.
