a certain someone who once worked for Mr. Ritter and presented a reference letter from his firm in a job interview was presciently asked 'isn't he in jail these days?"

you heard it in that job interview first, unless that was a confidential proceeding, which it was

Anyone know that Knight is synonomous with Ritter? Or is he the guy that the movie, "Catch Me If You Can" was about? Hmmmm....and wasn't there a book written called, "Man Without a Conscience"?

Tell me dave, have you checked the integrity of your sources? Or just not enough time in your day to actually question the stories you read. Only time to regurgitate the cud you've been served.
Has blogging become the new way to make people swing before their day in court? Apparently so.

Instead of hiding behind due process and questioning the integrity of daveberta, why don't you defend Ritter on the facts? Betcha can't.

peterpoints said...

Good point made by positivelyabsolutely. Ru Shur....where are you? If you were Ritter's criminal defense lawyer, what will your opening arguments be?

Ritter, is nothing more than a conman! I feel sorry for his former staff who now have that company on their resume.

J.Carter was used by Ritter and should have never been charged.We will see the real facts at trial!
