I'm pretty positive all the wheels are still in motion though. It wasn't like that was all going to happen overnight anyway. Now the people who are digging into all of it have more time to turn over every stone and will be ready to move quickly after the appeal gets denied. It's just going to be awhile. The problem the conman has now its he was still found at fault so no institution in their right mind would give him a penny at this point. His only liquidity are his campaign funds and whatever measly profit, if any, that comes from his resorts and golf courses. Plus he's under the microscope now so any more shady shit he tries to pull could land him with even more criminal charges.
It's all a waiting game right now. The GA RICO case is set to kick off here in a couple weeks with Ken Cheeseballo and Slimey Powell. It will be interesting to see if they try to go the distance or wind up pleading out.
