I lay awake last night thinking about the Airways Auto Tag mess, the three girls that were railroaded by our favorite police chief, Orlando Martinez de Castro and asshat former MDPD detective Jorge Baluja when it dawned on me that the investigation into the alleged theft of tens if not hundreds of thousands of dollars from the tag agency was done all wrong.
Considering the alleged theft occurred using computers and the internet, it seems to me that the jurisdiction wasn't correct. See, the agency that investigated and subsequently arrested the three tellers was Miami Dade County, while they have the authority to do anything throughout the county, I would think that because the wires (internet, phone lines etc) were used, the proper jurisdiction would have been federal. Take a look at the federal wire fraud statute and tell me what you think...
- Whoever, having devised or intending to devise any scheme or artifice to defraud, or for obtaining money or property by means of false or fraudulent pretenses, representations, or promises, transmits or causes to be transmitted by means of wire, radio, or television communication in interstate or foreign commerce, any writings, signs, signals, pictures, or sounds for the purpose of executing such scheme or artifice, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than 20 years, or both. If the violation affects a financial institution, such person shall be fined not more than $1,000,000 or imprisoned not more than 30 years, or both.[3]
Now, go back and review the events surrounding the Airways Auto Tag mess, tell me, how do you think a real cop would perceive things? I wonder if it's worthwhile to give the feds a call. What do you guys think?
Mike, you're getting closer. Orlando Martinez de Castro's tag agency is within the jurisdiction of the city of Miami. Both Orlando and his wife called the Miami pd to make this case but they refused, that's why he went to the county where he used his hook ups to get the tellers arrested. He wouldn't dare get the Feds involved as he'd end up getting his whole clan locked up.
ReplyDeleteMike, its time you called the Feds
ReplyDeleteWOW this story gets more interesting as the days has grow into months and soon, months will be a year (around March 2013) What in GODS name is this man made of, what does he have on the others that keep them AT BAY, and off his ASS. It appears no one can bring him to justice. This case smells BAD, and yet the Ethics Commission, Miami Dade States Attorney’s Office won’t or should I say are scared to, or even better ARE not able to do the lawful thing necessary in order to bring this mess to justice.
ReplyDeleteWhile you are technically correct about the Feds, they routinely turn away cases that could be handled by local law enforcement if it doesn't meet their criteria. Additionally, just because it COULD be handled by the Feds does not mean it HAS to be handled by the FEDS (Not in all cases, such as a bank robbery, etc.)
ReplyDeleteHaving said that, I don't mean to imply that the events did not transpire as you suggest. I honestly don't know ;)
Go for it, Mike; call them! It sure helped Fane Lozman when he questioned Riviera Beach's jurisdiction in the matter regarding his houseboat. Give Fane a buzz; he's living over on the Beach now. He'll set you straight...
ReplyDeleteIt's funny that you mention Fane. My company was actually contracted by the City of Riviera Beach to store his "houseboat" after it was removed from Riviera Beach and we were ultimately paid to destroy it for them and dispose of it. If the world ever saw what that "houseboat" actually looked like inside and witnessed first hand the deplorable condition that it was in, I believe the public opinion of Fane and his motives would have been completely different.
DeleteHey Mikey, maybe we need that Prosecutor that charged Aaron Swartz down here to get Chief Martinez de Castro...Huh? You would love that, right Mikey...No Innocent people being railroaded in your blog, right Mikey??
ReplyDeleteMust have been having another all-night smoker with Harris,Welch, and Stoddard...Remember "Puff Puff Give...Puff Puff Give"
I think the record speaks for itself.
DeleteWhich record is that, Mikey? You're still striking out at bat. Sure hitting a Home run in rumors and innuendoes don't count.The Tag Agency girls haven't been found Guilty or Not Guilty, either has Big Man OMC...That's your Record?? Bwahahaha!!!
ReplyDeleteDo you really think Mike blogs about rumours and heresay. I don't think so. Mike does his homework before he writes a story. Get real
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry if I don't believe every rumor, innuendo, and hearsay that a "Blogger" puts on the web.He put's alot of emphasis on future insider info, but then goes nowhere with it. Only 1 person has given deposition to the Ethics Committee. They have already seen that this case is going nowhere, so they are postponing it until summer to see if someone "Legitimate" would come forward with "Real" info. Not Bloggers Rumors or Hearsay. Capiche??
ReplyDeletehello, hello there! the scent of the "perfume" of this comment goes deep and wide. but wait a minute - do i recognize this "perfume"?
ReplyDeleteo ya, i do, i do. so, do we know each other, "sweat (and sour) heart"? again, yes WE DO. and you probably already recognize, this is Eda Harris. ya, it's me. but not to worry, i will not "blow your cover", at least not now. at least not yet. my definition of patience is extended time. so, sit tight, your time will come.
now, a few corrections to your so called "truths". i know it will make you extremely happy to learn that i was NOT ARRESTED. NO, I WAS NOT. EVER, IN MY LIFE. AND NOT THIS TIME. so, the omnipotent, omnipowered, omnisized source of yours is mistaken AGAIN! oops! that is a major OOPS.
so what other OOPSes do we have?
good question, but i am not going to be discussing it just yet. i am becoming a "hoarder" of sorts of your and HIS OOPSes.
now in regards to the topic of POT. let me refresh YOUR memory, since you know it up close and personal. here it is: more than a decade ago i almost died. i had a very aggressive viral pericarditis, that went on misdiagnosed and mistreated for almost a year. by the time my chest was full with fluid, they finally diagnosed it and after spending time in most of the hospitals in miami, it permanently damaged my heart and my lungs. since then i can not even be close to any place or anybody who smokes ANYTHING, let alone smoking pot myself. so nobody in MY household smokes anything at all.
sorry, your memory betrayed you, you better check for Alzheimers.
but, to make you feel completely confident about my using pot, i came up with an idea. i am willing to take a drug and alcohol test at any time, every week. with two conditions. being a spouse of a commissioner, i would request company - another spouse of a commissioner to do the tests with me. how about Kevin, Valerie Newman's husband. now, he DOES have a record with this issue. I DO NOT!!!!!!!!!!
the next condition, the taxpayers should not pay for your "suspicions". it should be paid either by you yourself, or your omnipotent, omnipowered, omnisized source of yours. so, let me know, since we can prove or disprove your fears very easily.
now in regards to my favorite topic - KARMA. wouldn't you say that hector mirable's best friend became his worst karma? seems like karma is at work.
and in regards to "idiots". there are quite a few here, i am just not sure who is who. on a closer investigation, you might find yourself in that category. OOPS.
future and karma are undeniable.
