I sure hope the prosecution has done their job, because lately we have come to find they are wrong and have spent a lot of tax payers money trying to prosecute wealthy people. I find a bit alarming that all the prosecution does is look for wealthy people and not prosecute others who are truly committing fraud. Another item I'd like to address is that all we do in Utah is this kind of work, checking on people with money?

Please remember PEOPLE are innocent until proven guilty. But, our government has changed and now people are perceived as guilty until THEY prove themselves innocent. The government involved in this case has harassed elderly family and many friends and they "THE GOVERNMENT" need to be held acccountable for their behavior and actions. I send my love and my prayers to the families that are involved in this indictment. God bless you.

What are you idiots smoking - your 'friend' Drage, filled with 'goodness' has defaulted on loans to me and others in excess of $150,000. You fools must presume Drage to be filled with goodness because he has 'bestowed' on others, money and goods that he has literally STOLEN. Are you all in for a surprise and I look forward to the sentencing hearing. You should have prayed for him and his cohorts to have been honest.

See Ya

IN Prison Hopefully!!

IRS

When is IRS going to start delving into tax evasions of FLDS? They to have shell corporations, LLC and small businesses!! If I have to pay my taxes, why shouldn't they?

Good thing we can count on local heroes like Paul Camacho--"Special Agent with the IRS"--and other geniuses at the SEC and FBI to catch criminals that could really harm our communities, businesses, bank accounts, and general quality of life...oh wait, they were too busy "following the money" and "rooting out" a few small fish out in Utah to notice the prelude-to-a-recession free for all on Wall Street...Keep chasing the little guys and the Madoffs and Skillings will keep laughing all the way to the bank. This is not a victory for the American tax payer, it is a sad slap in the face knowing that the people who are supposed to "protect" us are petty, blundering fools.

I am thrilled these guys are getting caught. They "funded" a business I was involved with and they are criminals plain and simple. Adrian, Les, and Nathan belong in prison. They take what they want, do a few favors along the way to quell their conscious, but are simple thieves. They cost my family hundreds of thousands with their broken promises. I really hope they do solid time and find the perspective they need to admit who and what they are.
