Lou's visitors
Periodically I check with the Orange County Jail to see who's been visiting Lou Pearlman. The last three months the faithful visitors have been his girlfriend Tammie Hilton, who has made 28 visits, usually with her son, Michael, and Dave Hedrick, who has visited 10 times. Dave is the guy who bought so much of Lou's stuff at the auction and who has even expressed an interest in buying Lou's house. Lou's only other visitors: Mary Cooper and Linda Mayo, who visited him together in October.

St. Petersburg Times personal finance editor Helen Huntley writes about money topics and answers questions about financial planning, investments and personal income taxes.
Oops, someone forgot to serve the defendants. Darn the details.
It's starting to look like the case was a PR stunt similar to the one Lou filed against Alec but never served.

No recognition wanted. Making a point to Benscher who reads this blog.
Posted by: Kim | December 02, 2007 at 07:03 PM
Everyone stand up and give Kim a round of applause, she was right. I guess she needs the recognition.
Posted by: | December 02, 2007 at 06:25 PM
Are AD and Julian Benscher business associates?
Posted by: | December 02, 2007 at 05:38 PM
Guess I was right about Benscher. (Previous post back in October or November)

Helen,
I just saw this article about Julian Benscher trying to buy Trans World Entertainment for a huge sum. Scott Bennett, Pearlman's former public relations representative, is now performing the same function for Benscher. Is Kapila looking at these guys? Benscher is the one who said he knew Pearlman was a fraud in 1998 but told nobody, after having reached a settlement agreement with LP. You'll notice in the article Benscher and Bennet's company is based in Switzerland with interests in the British Virgin Islands.

I was in LP's house and he had a picture of Tammie on his wall unit in his home office. He said that was his girlfiend. Did anyone ever see her at any party that he made? I thought his girlfriend was a women named Stacie that had a kid that looks just like him.
Posted by: | December 01, 2007 at 06:13 PM
I haven't looked into this new story about Fischetti yet. I think that in time as the state prosecutors build their case, most of those that dealt with Pearlman will more than likely have to pay in one way or another.

"How can Kim even make any comments about Tammie if she has never even met her? The truth is no one really knows anything about her and to be viscious or malicious just because is wrong. From everything I've heard she is actually a really nice person."
I met her, i won't say anything untrue: She shares a love of food w/the fatman this is true. How could she stand by her man when so much has come to light? She has been rewarded unjustly with stolen money, for this alone she should at least explain herself. When the fatman was in the hospital she was 24/7. She Knows something, why else continue to visit this fat pig? She knows he has money!!! She also knows he's not getting out. 1+1=2

To Tammie Hilton: Please ask LP if he has any regret or if he feels the pain he is putting his cousins in and others. Ask him if he is a sociopath. Please make sure you tell him how we the people that trusted him are in deep pain and are suffering because of his actions.

How many sales directors are there named "ROBERT FISCHETTI"? Who are crooks?
Notice the dates--2002-2003. Maybe he ran this scam then did the EISA scam.
Surely the indictment has his middle you can compare?

Florida Company Pleads Guilty To Rigging Bids On Navy Contracts
POSTED: 9:30 pm EST November 29, 2007
CASSELBERRY, Fla. -- A metal sling manufacturing company pleaded guilty Thursday to conspiracy to rig bids on U.S. Navy contracts, the federal officials said.
Authorities said Certified Slings Inc. rigged bids for manufacturing metal sling hoist assemblies, which are used to transport items such as bombs and other munitions.
The central Florida-based company also agreed to pay a $150,000 fine, according to a statement from the U.S. Department of Justice. The plea was made in the U.S. District Court in Islip, N.Y.
Certified Slings was part of a conspiracy to rig bids from December 2002 to October 2003, where "conspirators discussed and agreed among themselves which of them would win contracts from the U.S. Navy," the statement said.
A telephone message and e-mail left for the company by The Associated Press were not immediately returned Thursday night.
Four others have also been charged as a result of the investigation.
Pennsylvania executives Thomas Cunningham and Richard Barko pleaded guilty to rigging bids on U.S. Navy contracts in February and are currently awaiting sentencing.
In July, the former sales director of a New York-based company, "ROBERT FISCHETTI", pleaded guilty to two counts of participating in separate conspiracies to rig bids on military equipment. Roger Jacobi, the president of another New York-based company was charged with conspiring to rig bids on DOD contracts in September.

Has Hornberg visited LP yet? Saving his visit for pre- sentencing? Maybe the Pope will give him a ring to kiss while he shows him the level of Dantes Inferno Lou will be burning in.

I don't get why Pearlman has not been charged for his EISA crime. Do they think the victims will just go away? Could someone out there tell me why?
Posted by: | November 30, 2007 at 07:28 AM
Is David Siegel no longer his friend?

155pm
How about Tammie sit down with Helen for an interview and photo op?
Kim is well respected these days on this blog.
Posted by: | November 29, 2007 at 02:54 PM
How can Kim even make any comments about Tammie if she has never even met her? The truth is no one really knows anything about her and to be viscious or malicious just because is wrong. From everything I've heard she is actually a really nice person.
Posted by: | November 29, 2007 at 01:55 PM
You go girl
Posted by: Kim supporter | November 29, 2007 at 01:49 PM
No I have never met Tammy. I have only heard about her. As for what I look like, well, that would be none of your business and let me assure you honey, that I most certainly didn't come from underneath a rock nor will I ever crawl under one. That is reserved for you.
Posted by: Kim | November 29, 2007 at 07:56 AM
Hey Kim what do you look like. Get back under your rock. I know for sure that you never met Tammy.
Posted by: | November 28, 2007 at 08:09 PM
I think Alan Gross should go visit him. Big Poppa will feel worse when he sees in person an old time friend is not supporting him.
Posted by: Fafafooey | November 28, 2007 at 07:29 PM

Somebody here who was scammed should try and see him. See if he's man enough to face somebody he scammed...
Posted by: | November 28, 2007 at 06:56 PM
the words girlfriend and lou don't really go together all that well.
Posted by: | November 28, 2007 at 12:48 PM
Kim,
Have you met this Tammie?
Posted by: | November 28, 2007 at 12:21 PM
I'm sure Pearlman is now skinny.
Posted by: | November 28, 2007 at 10:24 AM
Why does anyone see him? Its beyond me!
Posted by: | November 28, 2007 at 10:24 AM
Tammie was his nurse several years ago when he was hospitalized for a cyst on his kidney.
She's bigger than he is.
Posted by: | November 28, 2007 at 10:14 AM
Pearlman has to agree to see his visitor/s. Has anyone shown up who he has refused to see?
Posted by: | November 28, 2007 at 10:13 AM
she doesn't have to be hot
she is Pearlman's connection to the outside world
serves a purpose
Posted by: | November 28, 2007 at 12:24 AM
Not even!
Posted by: Kim | November 27, 2007 at 10:07 PM
Is Tammie hot or not?
Posted by: | November 27, 2007 at 09:11 PM
As with the visit of jail by Anthony Pellicano's girlfriend, one has to wonder whether Pearlman's girlfriend is also an informant for the US Government.
Seems like a great idea to find those missing $500 million
