The article was right: This just keeps getting weirder and weirder!

[JIM F.]

Either this guy is a crook or a complete insufficiently_thoughtful_person. In my opinion, probably both.

Mike seems pretty adamant that he'll be cleared of everything and his suit against Noe will succeed.

There is nothing unusual about somebody taking a vacation even during an investigation. Certainly the stress of an investigation along with the fact that he is out of work would lend itself to vacation time. I know I wouldn't be sitting around the house... especially since the police locked up the wine.

 

The press published the value of the assets and the location. The police took custody but failed to safeguard the assets. Seems another investigation is in order. Perhaps the police have sticky fingures.

 

And, if you read the orignial articles by the Toledo Blade, you will see the independent auditors simiply said they did not "observe" the coins in inventory as many were being graded (thus the subequent reference to NGC), in the hands of consigners and in the hands of potential purchasers for inspection. From this, the very partisan Toledo Blade has tried to make this a political issue relating to campaign finances etc. Facts will come out in the end but there is a way to go yet before passing judgment on anyone.
