    And I guess the leopard is going to change his spots and work hard and pay everyone back……Give me a break…..A con, is a con, is a con….He (TOM) has an addiction…and it will take a long time to get that mind straight. The Judge has seen his kind, and knew that paying us back was not in the cards. Why do you think he had money hidden somewhere else. Let him out and he is gone…I like knowing his butt is somewhere where it will be appreciated.

    I disagaree with you Charlene – TOM won\’t RUN – he\’ll FLY right straight to Nicaragua where he\’s got all out money hidden! He\’s a con-artist of a magnitude that\’s not to be believed.

    He even had his partner stymied and running in circles. He didn\’t know which end was up, like most of us. Tom\’s a fast talker and Steve got talked into it just like the rest of us.

    I do know one thing, if STEVE is allowed to have a suspended sentence, he will work and he will do the right thing, he will pay us back as best he can. Speaking for myself and some of the other investors I have spoken with, we\’d all rather have some of our money – than NONE of our money! How about you?

    Steve has a wife that is willing to help.
    He has a family that he will never leave.

    Steve is an upright man who will do the right thing.

    What we need to do as investors and losers is to write to Judge Rapp and to Attorney General Charlie Crist and make them know we want our money.

    Here are the addresses to use, some of us are already writing. It\’s important to do this:

    Honoragle Judge Stephen A. Rapp
    15th Circuit Court
    Main Palm Beach County Court House
    205 North Dixie Highway
    West Palm Beach, FL 33401

    Office of the A.G., Charlie Crist
    State of Florida
    The Capitol PL-01
    Tallahassee, FL 32399-1050

    Do it, it might work. I\’ll invest two .39 cent stamps to get the bulk of my investment back.

    I would be happy to separate fact from fiction in this case for anyone who is truely interested. I can supply a copy of the charging document which contains facts that were not disputed by either Mr. Masciarelli or Mr. Petrarca. As this case is soon to be closed I am able to more freely discuss this case. I can be reached at 561-837-5635.

    From reading these postings, I find that Steven\’s family has been mentioned on numerous occasions. What a nice wife he has, great children. But what I don\’t find is Tom\’s family coming forward in his defense. Did any of his family show up for the trial.

    Tom is the devil\’s spawn – no body could be that evil.
    His parent\’s are deceased, he has one brother in RI who wants nothing to do with him, and no he had nobody in court!

    Believe me only the devil could have conned everyone they way he did. Nobody else except the devil could have gotten Steve so bamboozeled the way he did. It\’s like Steve sold his soul to the devil himself.

    Detetive…..I am in need of a pen-pal, and since the case is near close can you share the address of one Tom Masciarelli?

    steve is a great man. i hate to admit to this but he had i had an affiar. i work at a club where i met steve. he took car of me with my bills, etc. i am sorry for his wife. i even stayed in their home. his wife was away in Rhode Island. i want to say i am sorry. i feel bad that this has happended to him. he is a great guy treated me well. but what i feel bad about is that his wife is without him, even though he and i had great times, he did love his wife. i know this tom guy he and some girl came in to see us. the three of them i did not see much in the two of him. however steve was so generous with me. i feel so sorry for him. he is a good man. means no harm.

    ARE YOU KIDDING ME OR WHAT? NO BODY IS THAT DESPERATE! WRITE TO TOM! THAT WOULD BE LIKE WRITING TO THE DEVIL HIMSELF!

    Have a martini and relax, read a book, go to a movie, to to Classmates.com and find an old friend from high school and write to them. Please, spare yourself the BS he\’d throw your way.
