kidpower toys?, search returns no active website, no such public company, filings, or SEC existence
http://www.kid-power.com/

------------------ >>

The third and fourth links work and are about the C&D. Lower down, is a link that simply shows no web info at all on Kid Power, the co that Shepp supposedly ran some time back.


A google search shows nothing on his supposed recent start up company: http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&sourceid=gd&q=Atkinson+Technologies
and a hoover's search: http://www.hoovers.com/free/search/simple/xmillion/index.xhtml?query_string=Atkinson+Technologies&am....
nothing on silver Bells Music as well:
http://www.hoovers.com/free/search/simple/xmillion/index.xhtml?query_string=Silver+Bells+Music&w...

So, except for some hearsay in that company bio, all we know about Shepp is that he was conning some poor Christian folks.
