with this guy and are trying to do something about it. Doesn't look like a jilted girl friend .
I do get your point about the nuts that are on the internet 
|
and who is the other guy? same jilted GF?
i notice uship has some good reviews too.
smells fishy. just needs some air to clear it up

mtgoat666:
Please reread my original post. I only stated the facts pertaining to us and our dealings with JIM CONNOLLY, who by the way is still missing in
action, along with the money we paid him and our boat and trailer which he drove away with 22 days ago.
We accuse JIM CONNOLLY of fraud, lying, deceit and completely unprofessional behaviour. Fellow nomads and police authorities we talked to have drawn
the conclusion that he was the one who stole our boat, based on the facts that we told them.
We could have just sucked it up, realized we were swindled, accepted the loss and moved on, but we are glad we didn't because we have been in contact
with other people who have serious legal issues with JIM CONNOLLY. If he is disabled from deliberately hurting other innocent people then we will be
satisfied. Until then we hope as many people as possible stumble onto this thread and save themselves the misfortune that befell us.
As for being a newbie, I would imagine most people joined the Baja Nomads and made their first post because they had something important they wanted
to say.
With regards to anonymously posting, I was under the impression that was the point of choosing a username. JIM CONNOLLY knows who we are. The
police and our friends know who we are. Anyone who needs our support or wants personal contact with us are free to send an email.
Hopefully that clears it up for you, latina

It is good to see that self appointed moderators can give an anonymous opinion and then chastise if it does not fit there perceived notion of life.

Latina, saw your post over on BD. Sorry to hear about this dishonest BS. I truly hope you get to the bottom of this and that justice is served. Ignore
the trolls... they only post to be able to read their own drivel and to sew deviousness. Most of all, I hope you get your boat back! Good luck.

Thanks for all the support and kind offers of help. We are drowning in a sea of paperwork that is required to be delivered in person to various
authorities, so we will be returning to La Paz sooner than we planned to take care of it all. We don't wish this on anyone.

23 days have passed and still no word from JIM CONNOLLY.
It is highly unlikely that our boat is in the condition it was when it left our house on March 2nd. Check out La Tina's photos again. We hazard to
guess she is the only 19 foot Carolina Skiff on the whole Baja, so no one in their right mind will try to use her the way she was. She will be
stripped of motor and controls, canvas, gas tank, electronics, center console unit, etc.,etc.. and the aluminum trailer will have been quickly
recycled as well.
JIM CONNOLLY is about 6'3", 220lbs, dark hair, possibly blue eyes, 40ish and is a US citizen. He DRIVES a charcoal 2004 F-350 4 door deisel pick-up,
California license plate #7N59613 and could be travelling with his girlfriend Dulce and their 8month old baby.
It is unlikely you will spot him towing our boat and trailer. If you have seen him in the Baja, or elsewhere, and would like to share, we would be
most interested in his location. Thank you

Dear Latina
I have been following this event and find some of the treatment you have received by the "sourdough" Baja types to be rude and self serving. I have
experienced the same. You see this bs by "old salts" in Alaska also. It seems to happen when these guys fulfill their boyhood fantasy of rugged
individualism, in their campers, and have way too much time on their hands.

That's pretty funny. BajaNomad is nothing if not cynical. Those who benefit from the wide-spread reactions are those who take what works and leave the
rest.
This isn't an Honor Society nor is it a church group although it most often is what one is looking for, information that pertains to a certain
question.
If victims in Baja, or anywhere else, are looking for a community of grievers, they have probably come to the wrong place.

Somewhere I read "attitude is everything."
I think some of the people on Baja Nomads should remember that.

grisslefish:
i love the country where people are innocent until proven guilty, and i appreciate the court system where anonymous allegations/testimony are not
admissable, i don't believe 80% of what is posted on the internet, and i ALWAYS doubt anonymously posted information on the internet. the louder
latina protests, the more i doubt.
i don't believe any newbie that has posted about only one thing, and that thing is an allegation of criminal activity. the skeptic in me says it
smells fishy.
