Scammer Busted for Fake Art in Jacksonville

-----------------------------------------------------
MilwaukeeWorld: ART FAKE DEALER KENNEDY, FIGURE IN 2005 MILWAUKEE CASE, ARRESTED ON FEDERAL CHARGES IN FLORIDA

A repeat offending art scammer was arrested this week in Florida on federal charges and now faces as much as 10 years in prison. The final charge was for retaliation against a witness or potential witness, but this guy has been moving around the country selling fake art and even pushing it online.

All the details are at Milwaukeeworld (I told you, this guy gets around!)

Thanks to the Jacksonville FBI offices and other local law enforcement for catching up with this guy and keeping the Jacksonville art scene honest.
