For those of you that know the story of tim and OCM in havasu that pulled the national marine shim sham and screwed a LOT of people out of a LOT of money...he was finally arrested today hiding out on a boat in the Newport Beach harbor in so cal. He had a no bail felony warrant and is being charged with 23 felony counts of theft and fraud.
I know there’s some members on here that got wrapped up in his mess of robbing peter to pay Paul - selling boats with no title, not paid off and selling consignment boats and never paying the owners. It took a while but now hopefully he will be held accountable.

Glad to hear a dirt-bag boat guy got what is coming to him! I've lost money on 3 different occasions to owners of boat manufacturing companies. That's part of why I'm such a die-hard Skater fan, Peter Hledin is the most stand up guy you'll ever find in the performance marine industry.

Being filed in Az...Each felony count is a minimum of 2 and max of 12 year sentence. I presume he'll plead out and do 5-10 years. Unless the feds decide to charge him as well since there was a lot of crossing state lines and tax evasion issues. That could still be pending.
