Maybe Ive watched too much Sopranos but arent Meli,CC, Wright potential whack targets. They have to still owe major $$ to the "families". I'm sure some internet tough talk is sure to follow my post. Some yadda yadda about so and so's uncle from Bensonhurst who knew Quickie G and might have placed a bet one time with Fat Dom's cousin Vinnie The Nose. Anyway, guys who are the target of a federal investigation are being watched by the feds all the time, for better or worse. And yes, the mob is no where close to what it was just 20 years ago. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends which Mob your talking about, the Chinese, and Russian mobs would kill someone while the Feds were escorting him if they wanted him dead, and that was their window, but yes the Italian Mafia is a shell of its former self.

Jetsbb Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Carton can't claim "gross misunderstanding" He literally got the hedge fund money by calling the concert promoter that the hedge fund sent the money to and telling them the wire they got was a mistake and they should send the money into his personal account. He is dead to rights there is no wiggle room if you read the complaint and the civil suit which goes into even more detail. He was running a real tight rope the Hedge fund actually wanted to call the concert promoter to confirm the wire info and he lied to them the executives were in meeting and couldn't get back to them. He could have easily been caught if the Hedge fund were just a little more diligent. Carton must have been really desperate to take such high risks really crazy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legally he's still in big trouble but ripping off a hedge fund looks better than ripping off average ticket buyers. Plus the hedge fund looks incompetent for not vetting Carson. Either way, I think his career in New York is done. A hedge fund guy who is as sharp as bowling ball if he fell for this crap. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it's me, but that doesn't look to code. Where's the fence around the pool (or property) that would prevent an unattended child from reaching it and drowning? That fence looks like it's for horses (or, since I don't see stables, it's essentially decorative). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said that in my post as well - "(or property)" - but it has to be more than just any fence type imaginable. Has to be one of a few types, of certain minimum height, etc. All I see is a low fence for blocking large animals that any child could crawl through blindfolded. It does look pretty nice, though.

What a scumbag. Definitely the guy has issues. Like Kietel in Bad Leuitenant, Carton now is ‘Bad Sports Host’. He’s fortunate no one took violent offense to his dirty deeds. Had the world in his hand and blew it all away to do what? Gamble? Threw his career, rep, and family down the toilet. Addictions will get you sooner or later. He’s hit rock bottom. Hopefully he gets the help he desperately needs. Wonder if Boomer was aware of this as it transpired. He must be shocked ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
