  I worked for Homegold and they the owners used it for there own enjoyment never funded loans on time always trying to make the extra buck on every deal. hell they had a luxury bus they use to drive around the USA looking at there offices not to mention the jet and such.
  
  they knew that the writing was on the wall they took the better of the branches and tried to start a new company which also failed.
  
  they deserve what they get they stole the money and when the time came to payback there investors they tried to hide there mistakes.
  
  so i say hang em high

  Anyone who thinks that Ronnie Shepard has been unfairly prosecuted is has no brain !!!! This guy has been a crook from the get-go !There was nothing "innovative" about this guy, he got what he deserved.

  "I think these people who are getting sentenced to prison for mortgage fraud are being unfairly persecuted. What they did isn’t so bad at all. It’s a sweet way to get money for a house, or several houses. Everybody’s doin’ it!
  
  It’s not fair that these enterpreneurs are being punished for being fearless risk-takers. Once again, meaningless, dull conformity to a 9-to-5 cubicle job is being rewarded, while the trailblazers of industry are punished. When there are no more trailblzers, what then? Some day society will beg us to return, but we’ll all be in prison for our brave efforts."
  
  
  That has to be one of the dumbest statements I have ever read. This guy defrauded 8,000 people out of 275 million but he is a risk taker? He is a trail blazer?

  yeah, those who are convicted of fraud like Sheppard will plead not guilty to hide himself from further embarrassment and humiliation. He's used in defrauding others that he is also trying to convince himself that he did not commit the crime despite of the 8,000 complainants and obviously tons of evidence against him.
