By B. Hamilton

July 27, 2009- Update: 
Frank Bachinsky has sold his home in Charlotte and has relocated to Boca Raton, FL. Read July 3, 2008 news below and earlier reports about his activities. 
Michael Sauvante continues to post multiple website stories attempting to change true events and facts.  Dozens of shareholders supplied the courts numerous boxes of evidence and the Judges ruled appropriately.  The shareholders did not receive any return on their investments that could be verified after a thorough investigation.  The courts can still be trusted in this case.

August 4, 2008:
Santa Barbara Bankruptcy court considers not discharging millions in debts Michael David Sauvante (aka Michael Croucher), and wife Patricia Severin Carlson (aka Patricia Sue Croucher), of Lompoc, CA have filed for. The Chapter 7 Bankruptcy case is being handled by Jerry Namba, Trustee and is case number 9:08-bk-11460-RR. See document. A large creditor group claimed and alleges millions were taken and immediately removed to personal pockets that left several law firms and shareholders requesting redemptions unpaid. They are petitioning the court to block Michael Sauvante et al from running off with corporate IP that was sold to shareholders and later uncovered as only "leased" to the start-up corporate shells.  Investigations (forensic accounting and bankruptcy history) confirm the truthful evidence supplied by the law firms, shareholders, court transcripts, and court opinions.

July 3, 2008:
"Upon examining these companies’ books and records and investigating their agents, the Trustee began to unravel Bachinsky and Sauvante’s elaborate shell game."
"There is no discharge in this bankruptcy case"
- Judge David E. Weich.  Are they mini-Madoffs?

Shouldn't One Beware of Fraudulent Propositions and Get Rich Quick Schemes?
Michael Sauvante, John Willis, Glenn Sanders
and Frank Bachinsky may not yet understand the legal definition of property.  Property does not mean just real estate, it includes other assets and court confirmed shareholder money - where has it all gone?

Shareholders from the west coast to the east coast have obtained all court records in order to search for their considerable "missing investments". 

"When comparing the bank account record deposits there are immediate withdrawals to these business impostors for the years reviewed.  A clear pattern of a lack of business development expenditures for any of the shell organizations is found and contrary to written and verbal promises made to the shareholders.  Withdrawals were far beyond the expected salaries for start-up organizations and actually depleted the numerous accounts."

Forensic auditors have confirmed the courts opinions above. 

Shouldn't one be wise and research proposed investments and the parties behind them before investing?

KIMBERLY STUHLER DEFAULTS ON PROMISSORY NOTE, THEN DEFAULTS BY NOT FILING AN ANSWER TO THE COMPLAINT FOR DEMAND COLLECTION

June 5, 2009 -  Kimberly Stuhler, a resident of Monterey County and local realtor, has defaulted on a Promissory Note of $10,000.00.  On July 23, 2008, close friends who Stuhler called "family", loaned Stuhler $10,000.00 to be paid from future commissions or other sources of income.  No payments were ever made, even though commissions were made.  There were no responses by Stuhler to the Demand email and letter from the former friends ("family" - Plaintiffs). Stuhler also made no responses to phone calls or to another demand letter from  Plaintiffs' law firm.  Since there were no payments made as promised and no responses to communications, Plaintiffs' filed for collection in Superior Court.  Stuhler did not appear in court and defaulted. 
A Judgement hearing is being scheduled and an interest bearing lien, that includes attorney fees, will be placed against Kimberly Stuhler as soon as possible.  Read the Court Complaint Document.

Gwen Smith seemed like the perfect tenant for Barbara Wilt's Sebastopol apartment.
The 53-year-old single mother was articulate and bright, had good references and talked about using her law degree to help crime victims and other women raising children on their own.
But what Wilt didn't know when she handed over the keys to her converted garage on Brookside Avenue in 2008 was that she was opening her doors to trouble. Read article.


March 8, 2009:
Gwen Smith may still be in the Sebastopol, CA area per an anonymous tip from a party who was scammed in the usual pattern, as laid out below.

November 9, 2008:
    Another investigation is being made on Gwen Smith, an unlicensed attorney, who is allegedly working cross-country borrowing money and living off of people, then skips town when confronted for repayment. Gwen Smith allegedly assaults when her repayment promises are not kept.
    Gwen Smith is also known as Gwendolyn Smith, Gwen Smyth, Gwendolyn Smyth, Gwen Walke, Gwendolyn Walker Smith, Wendy Gross and Wendy Groze.
    "In addition, personal possessions and vehicles are taken without permission", states Dr. Elizabeth Hamilton. Dr. Hamilton won her civil suit in Santa Cruz, CA Superior Court against Smith for non-repayment. Dr. Hamilton also had to search and extract her "missing" vehicle. 
    We are told that Smith's former boyfriend attorney "Gary", now just a friend, allegedly additionally places strategies to block recourse for the innocent victims. Gwen Smith has used his address and collectors reach a dead-end.  She travels with her son, Harrison Zeus Smith.
    Other cross-country court documents will be posted shortly. We have viewed a Boston, MA delinquent $27,500.00 school loan document attempting to collect from Smith, a collection agency document for three credit card outstanding balances and a $2,435.00 Judgment from another Californian.
    Smith has resided in Hawaii, California, Arizona, Wisconsin, Massachusetts, Minnesota and possibly other states.
Documents uncovered:
$5,000 Judgment - California

Whole Foods Bounced Check

$80,029.75 Judgment - Wisconsin

Hawaii Denies Drivers License to Gwen Smith
