I had 1 thing in common with main<br />defendant – We both graduated from Arizona State University, but<br />after that fact, our lives took quite different paths. I will add<br />that this was a complex case and I actually worked on this<br />investigation for over five years. Some might say, wow you are pretty<br />slow, but the case involved multiple defendants, federal and state<br />charges, over 100 properties were involved and millions at stake.
