If you need to supplement your fraud income, you might want to consider writing a wildly overpriced ebook too: While we can’t say for sure it’s the same guy, there’s a “Marlon Baugh” in the Fort Lauderdale area pimping himself online as a “nationally known mortgage expert” and selling a book of “insider load modification secrets” for 50 bucks.

… The state of Florida has been cited third in the nation for highest number of human trafficking victims, which has lead to a statewide taskforce on the issue. Rundle also spoke of a Human Trafficking task force that she has now established in Dade County. Why would Miami need such a task force?

Trafficking victims are acquired from all parts of the world (Mexico, Guatemala, Bolivia, Argentina, Honduras, Haiti, Thailand, Hungary, etc) and are brought to Miami and forced into slavery. South Florida has been cited as having a significant number of “pimps” that are targeting vulnerable and scared minors.

Rothstein, 49, was sentenced last year to 50 years in prison for his $1.4 billion Ponzi scheme, the largest fraud in South Florida history. From the transcripts, Rothstein appears to be relishing his chance to tell all – including which of his law partners, business associates and investors allegedly took advantage of the sexual favors he paid richly to procure.
He told the lawyers interrogating him that he spent tens of thousands of dollars a month on women from strip clubs and escort services, and had girls on call in hotels and apartments.
