Jackson Jambalaya

Filing these lawsuits is throwing good money after bad.

Everybody's mad right now and they all want a pound of flesh.

A lawyer's dream client.


There won't be enough money recovered to make a trip to Tico's

11:48

Is correct and incorrect

The real money lies in Richards pockets

He is running fast

Also don’t forget there is actually insurance for this so the hoas who Have policies in place will recoup most of the monies.

And Ridgway Lane prob has some type of insurance though it prob won’t cover 2.5 mm in theft

I'm convinced there is a woman behind this-

I grew up in Jackson, but moved to TX about 30 years ago and stayed. Just found this blog two days ago.

From what I gather, the city is now basically divided into an uninhabitable third world hellhole and a sprawl of suburbs where lawyers and assorted con men try to rob the handful of folks who still have two nickels to rub together.

How far off is that assessment? Thanks in advance.

Attn 12:02 Are you telling me that the home owner associations which were run by Ridgway Lane had insurance? That is to say that the management (Lane) bought insurance against theft and then stole from the HOA,s and you want me to believe they will recover those funds?

This is either going to be a very interesting study in mass hallucination, OR this guy made off with a bunch of money.

I sold my townhouse at Timbers in February of 2018. I lived there 11 years, and I knew the Lane's were up to something but you couldn't put your finger on it, because the statements they gave us were all bogus. So the only way to figure it out is to actually examine the bank accounts. The sad thing is most of the Timbers neighborhood is made up of retired folks who trusted the Lane's way too much. The board just did whatever Lane and his group said. Very sad I hope they can recoup some money. By the way David Lane Sr. and Jr. and a lady named Donn Pennick ran things for all the HOA's. She had to know of the fraud. Very bad people.

Approximately how old is daddy Lane and son Lane, just curious.

12:41, pretty accurate. Scatter in a few pretentious doctor's wives, a smattering of piglets sucking off the state government teet, pretending to be "consultants", a smidge of crooked lawyers, a herd of hypocrites who'll sit in church each Sunday and nod their heads, and then act like they're in sodom and gonorrhea the rest of the week, and a gaggle of swingers and hotwives, and you'd be spot on.

Anybody have any idea where ~$2m went? Can't hide that type of money.

2:45, They spent half the money on gambling, alcohol, and wild women. The rest they wasted.

Lane Sr. bought a condo in Chicago and a place in Oxford.

Will the DA go after them? He has screwed up the Canton voter fraud prosecutions. I hear many more to indict, but he hasn’t. He has already let two elected officials walk. He had the opportunity to clean up Canton, but appears he has totally dropped the ball. Don’t be surprised if the Ridgway Lane folks walk.

Do the HOA board members get to walk?

I'm reminded of a very well known and popular Trust Lawyer who practiced in Ridgeland for years. He traveled the state speaking to senior groups and had a Tuesday radio show, convincing seniors and others to join his 'trust empire'.

Made what must have been millions convincing retirees (and others) that his boiler plate trust product would allow them to escape probate and shield their holdings from things like Medicare.

Even promised everybody who signed up (paying thousands) that he would be there with free advice, counsel and assistance to negotiate the medicare pathway to a nursing home and he'd be there forevermore with free advice.

Turned out he got old, retired, sold the business to three other attorneys who balked on all his promises and wanted 4 to six thousand to give advice on negotiating medicare rules in order to get into a nursing home and divest holdings.

Those three are now two and are still in business in Ridgeland, screwing everybody (hundreds of clients; maybe thousands) out of nickles and dimes and thousands of dollars.

I don't reckon he (or they) stole; but, they sure mislead, misrepresented and made millions off the stupidity of others.

there is not a type of business entity in this country that receives less financial scrutiny than NON-PROFIT corporations. and all of these neighborhood associations are set-up as just that, nonprofit corporations. true, a management company stole all this money from these HOAs, but there are plenty of HOAs out there that are being managed by certain homeowners and those homeowners are knocking the bank accounts dead every 30 days because they know no-one is looking or demanding a yearly audit. fraudsters and flip-flam artists absolutely prey on any type of non-profits ,especially HOAs.

Post at 6:58 I meant MedicAID not MediCARE. The labyrinth is tricky and takes three years or so, but the point is that promises were made but never kept.

You summed-it-up really well - SCARY well. One might want to include among those robbers, though, the medical corporations and narcissistic/sociopathic/psychopathic physicians. Some of these are home-grown 'Big, Loud Church' types, who love playing the 'Big Man in Church', and big, showy 'Ole Miss Dad'/'Ole Miss Booster', while doing their best to get you hooked on opioids, and "advance" your health conditions to a point where they can start amputating your limbs, in order to pay for stadium sky boxes, and half-million-Dollar weddings for their daughters. Then, there are the ones whose origins are extremely alien - reflecting ethnoreligious affiliations which serve as justifications for fleecing and destroying the health of Mississippi's largely Protestant/Christian populace (in other words, one is considered by them to be 'Fair Game'). The very biggest of these for-profit medical concerns, mask their true nature via expensive media campaigns which imply that theirs is THE medical system preferred by Jesus. "You can trust us, because..."

Community Bank named again as the bank the HOA used.

2:35, I love that summation and I’m all in for the swinging and hot wives....I’m STILL trying to find that discreet entrance with a pineapple to the Barrington. Is that where the swing parties are since they moved them from Reunion? Just askin for a friend...

In response to TRUST ME: I would be very suspicious of any attorney who advised clients to divest assets in order to qualify for Medicaid. In my sometimes-humble opinion, that is at best shady, and may rise to the level of fraud.
