    Sorry hes dead, but I would say he was pretty arrogant to think the DR is in any way shape of form like the USA where you can Foreclose and Repo stuff. Down there, they take that kind a shit personally.I think he should have known better.
    Absolutely.

    Armando has a very long history of always coming out ahead in dealing with 'investors' in his dealings. Nuff said.

    Hey, it happens every day. Where do you think Anoeca makes it's money?

    How do you think they can pay the interest rates they pay?

    Ever asked Aneca for a loan? I'm surprised the guy doesn't own half of Puerto Plata.(maybe he does)

    But it's one thing if a local does it(or even a well connected expat), it's another thing when somebody gets off the boat and tries to do it.

    Two detained in killing of American lawyer Art Tarlow

    posted on: Jun 28 2010 19:5 .


    As family and friends shared stories at Art Tarlow's memorial service Friday afternoon in Portland, police in the Dominican Republic awaited analysis of two guns recovered this week as part of the investigation into the lawyer's slaying.

    Tarlow, a prominent Portland business and construction lawyer, was shot to death June 10 inside his winter home in Sosua, a small town on the Caribbean country's north coast. He was 68.

    (Original article at http://www.oregonlive.com/business/i..._detain_t.html)

    Police have been investigating whether the death was connected to a legal battle waged by Tarlow and a group of investors against a Sosua businessman after a failed attempt to build a luxury casino. Tarlow's group, Mocarello, had recently won a $3.9 million lawsuit that would force the sale of a hotel that the investment group's documents said served as collateral.

    Sosua police executed a search warrant Thursday and confiscated a pistol and a revolver, said Eddie Bueno Disla, the lead investigator on Tarlow's killing. Bueno said he had detained two people -- the driver and security guard of Sosua businessman Armando Casciati.

    The investigator did not release the names of those detained or say where the search warrants were served.

    Casciati, the Italian owner of the company that Tarlow's group faced off with in court, has been told that he cannot leave the country, Bueno said.

    Police sent the pistol and the revolver to the country's crime lab on Wednesday to see if they matched with the gun used in the shooting.

    "There's a lot of things I can't say over the phone," Bueno said Friday.

    Initial investors in the casino deal put in $1.8 million, with Tarlow providing $100,000 in May 2004, according to Mocarello documents. The $3.9 million was to cover the initial $1.8 million investment as well as damages, legal fees and a separate $750,000 lien on the property.

    In an e-mail earlier this week, Casciati told The Oregonian that he believed Mocarello's investors were all Dominican and that a decision on the sale of the hotel remained in legal limbo.

    "I never met Mr. Tarlow -- I did not even know of his existence," Casciati wrote. "All the shareholders of Mocarello are Dominicans and I have no clue of other people having interests in this company."



    Let's all watch and see what an American or expat's life really is worth in the Dominican Republic
    DON’T HATE THE PLAYER !!!!! “HATE THE GAME”

    Thanks for the link. I was aware of it since the day after his murder. That's why I said the other foto was a file photo.

    Thanks again.

    Dominican authorities investigate death of British investor



    Cabarete.
    Zoom Picture


    Santiago- Dominican Republic authorities announced Wednesday an investigation into the death of a British national Denise D. Courtnay, 60, whose decomposed body was found in a grassy area near the town Cabarete, Sosúa (north).
    Sosúa Police commander Nelson Diaz Araujo told the press of the ongoing investigation, but clarified that there are no arrests so far.
    The coroner Freddy Salazar transferred the foreigner’s body for an autopsy to Regional Forensics in Santiago.
    Courtnay’s body was found yesterday in the sector Playa Rocon, Cabarete by locals who found her by the smell and notified the Police.
    A police source said the foreigner, who owned three apartments in Cabarete and Sosúa, had disappeared one week ago and prompted a search by agents and some residents.

    Seems that somebody investing in the D.R. brings out the worst in the locals

    He's also still practicing at the new CMC in Sosua as well as at his private practice.

    He's not known locally as Dr Death for nothing!!!
