Thats as close as anything Porsche as we want him for a very long time.

I am not all that familiar with the story, but it looks like your perserverance has paid off. Congrats!

I knew nothing of these crimes. But it bothers me greatly when criminals appear to have more rights and protections under the law than thier victims.

After being convicted of these crimes, I don't understand why the criminal's identity must be protected and not the victim's.

I want to thank those who spent thier time and energy to assist law enforcement in taking this criminal off the street. All it takes for evil to prevail is for good men to do nothing.

Mechanics skills can be used in so many ways to legally create income. I hope this guy "gets it" after his incarceration. Unfortunately it seems people who screw over others are generally inclined to do so. If they like it and keep doing it, I'm comfortable paying to keep them locked up away from the rest of us.

He actually was good at being a P car wrench and did some nice work on mine....in my own garage. I think he could have made a good living on the honest side of life if he had chosen to.

I may be wrong, but I think there are charges still pending in San Jose in relation to the burg on a local P car shop and theft of major items later traced to him. I'll see if I can find out how that stands and report back.

What a shame it takes so much work to catch & convict someone that has done so much wrong so easily. Great job by you guys keeping the law on the trail. People like this just piss me off so much. Have no clue how scum like this have no conscience whatsoever. When/if he gets out, let's hope he #$%'s with the wrong guy and gets some serious one-on-one payback

You ****ed With The Wrong Marine Sound Clip and Quote

of course in the web address you need to put the proper spelling of the F bomb in the asterisk

test: to see if his name is banned.

Thanks for helping put JD away. Great work guys.

you would've known it if his name wasn't a "protected" thing here on pp......
sure wayne has his intrests to protect, but now that he has been convicted it's not "slander" if it's the truth and any threats to pp should now be null and void since he was in fact convicted.....

i think that MANY of us here are waiting to see what the admins will do on this subject......hopefully it will not continue to "protect" convicted criminals....

This is an incredibly messed-up story. I've considered doing some mobile Porsche repair/maintenance and now I fear that the whole business plan is tainted from this guy's actions.

What a scumbag...hope he gets stomped by someone in jail.

The only mobile wrench I ever heard bad things about is numbnutz on this board. The Honda guy used to be in my office's parking lot 3 times a week. The property owner finally kicked him off due to liability issues.

One BIG problem on mobile wrenching is the multitude of business licenses you need. Each City and County makes you bend over. You can try to blend in between the leaves but there are code compliance guys you will call your ad and invite you to their 'hood.

They'll be there with their ticket book....

Good work Joe and friends.
One Porsche predator / scumbag down.

Now if we could get some others who prey on PP members put away.
Oh if there were just some way to post a thread about them.

jimmy is mcloven?

exactly......

If someone wants to see some of Jimmy's screen names, just go to my Pelican profile located here: Pelican Parts Technical BBS - View Profile: Joeaksa

Several of the posts on my profile are from Jimmy, like "1guyLA, gogogadget. socal911dude" and so on. He had hundreds of user names and the Mods were eventually deleting them.

Problem from their end is that Jimmy was kinda like Bin Laden, from what we hear he never stayed in one place for very long sleeping in different houses all the time. We have never found his large stash of parts, and feel that there are at least two storage lockers that have loads of Pelican owners engines and parts.

Funny thing, Jimmy tried to be a "good guy" after he found out that the CHP had him on several felony counts. He offered to turn in some of the stolen property. He thought that he was turning back in the parts from people that he was already known to the CHP but was wrong. He turned in engines. gearboxes and other parts to them expecting a reduction in charges but it turns out that they did not know about these cars/owners and they then filed NEW and additional charges against him!

Thats when the CHP and DA knew that they had a big fish out there. That and the prodding by Mark Fraiser, Mark Rogers and others. We were calling the DA the days before each hearing asking them for the full count and "do you want us to come over to sit in court?"

Now the sad thing is that there are still stolen parts floating around out there that were involved with Jimmy with serial numbers on them. If they are found (and some will) they will be siezed.

Thanks much but Mark Fraiser is the one who did the lions share of this. He is the one who was banned for trying to warn Pelican owners about this criminal and now needs to be re-instated.

Bell, right now there are almost 2000 of us on the thread who are as well waiting and watching. Mark Fraiser did not deserve (IMHO) what happened to him but now is the time to make things right.

I know that when I meet him he is getting a free dinner and drinks! Without him Jimmy would still be out there ripping Pelican 911 owners off, laughing all the way to the bank.

Hey Joe, Good job too all. I know a little about him but why was Mr. Fraiser banned? I mean I know you say because he was warning Pelicans but why did that cause a banning?
Thanks.

Got to love it when a good plan come together...

Good jobs guys

I do not know or understand the legal ramifications but Wayne is no fool, he must have had a very good reason to stop the posts about this scumbag. Hopefully when the dust settles he'll be able to explain it all so we'll understand.

Mark Frasier was trying to do the right thing but what got him banned was ignoring numerous warnings from Wayne and the moderators to knock it off.
They told him to stop, he ignored them and did it anyway, that's why they banned him.
I'd like to see him re-instated but it isn't my board, and Wayne has to be careful that what is posted here does not get him or his company in trouble. he wasn't trying to protect the scumbag, he was trying to protect pelican, and us.

It sux that our legal system is so screwed up by the bad lawyers that the good guys are under more threat than the bad guys, but until we round up all the scum civil lawyers and make em go away, it is what it is.

EDIT uh oh, I prolly shouldn't have said that. The next time a scum lawyer gets taken out some other blood-sucking leech will try to say it's my fault for inciting it.
Remember the good old days when we were encouraged to tell the truth? Now we get punished for it.

The question is, why was he told not to post when he was trying to save others from having their engine or car stolen?

After all, we have a thread here on Motorsheister that is YEARS long detailing the illegal operations of a repair shop. Whats the difference? As well there are others (German Auto in Atlanta area and the used parts shop South of Chicago) who have done the very same thing. People were allowed to post all they wanted on these and many others.

Maybe because MM, German Auto also sold parts and not just services. Good job on persevering and getting this guy.

But this guy also sold parts, they just didn't belong to him..


Good job Joe..

Jimmy D*e*e*r*i*n*g convicted of stealing from Pelicans!!!
 

Thanks Joe.

Good work.

Well there are others who do "business" here that will get your hand slapped if you mention anything about them, even though they are thieves and general rip off artists. It just makes me wonder about how one goes about getting such protection.


Good job guys, I hate thieves and love to see them go away.

I dunno. Maybe Wayne was threatened with a lawsuit? maybe because there was an ongoing investigation?
Could have been any number of reasons, but I bet he had a good one.
I'm thinking that eventually we'll know.

Sammy,

Doubt that Wayne would back down because of a lawsuit. More like a "I will hurt your wife and kids" might do it. Who knows, and hopefully someday he will do the right thing and bring Mark back onboard.

Had Jimmy working on my car twice, no issues ... maybe me carrying a 45 helped 'clear bad thoughts'.

Thanks Joe.

Maybe Waynes precautions assisted in the apprehension and conviction of the man.

I was dimly aware of this situation and didn't actually realize the full extent of it. It's good to see a good ending to a story like this for once. The good guys always seem to get the short end of the stick.

way back when, when I first started my restoration project, Mr. JD helped me drop my non-running engine. He wanted me to take a pic of him standing in my 911's empty engine bay. I did, and I've since removed the silly pic from my album.

Steve,

The people we got to work with us on this case were pretty much in the Southern part of the state. There were some up North but not many.

We do feel that there are just as many if not more people up in your part of the state who Jimmy stole from and who are not in touch with us or the DA. Hopefully some others will see this thread and contact us or the DA.

Joe

Good work Joe. Thieves suck. This is a great board and resource that has been extremely helpful and entertaining to me. Wayne runs a great board, I am curious though what his reasoning is that would protect those that have bad intentions. I want to know about these types and what harms they have brought to our community (Pelican). But that's just me.

Dan,
I want to know why Wayne was so strict about this too but I'm sure he had a good reason. For a very long time many of us hammered Jimmy on Pelican and tried to warn guys especially in So Cal. He got so pissed at me that I got threats from him privately. I guess we were really hurting his 'business'. Eventually we were all told to cease and desist any mention of his name.

There was one yellow Cabriolet Turbo look that I got posted by a friend that was one of Jimmy's victim's car. That turned out to be one charge that he was convicted on. The pic was taken in an abandoned chop shop location and had at least five P car bodies inside in various states of dis-assembly. It's where Mark Fraser's car was eventually found...by Mark himself. That was the beginning of the end for JD. Jimmy wrote and cussed me no end for getting that pic (yellow car) posted. Made me smile :)

So after we were banned from discussing JD in public we found ways to work under the radar. Jimmy was also banned from Pelican but used several new screen names to threaten us by using PM's Joe A likely got most of the serious threats.

Mark went to local PD's and DA's who just didn't want to move on this. Eventually he got in touch with a CHP officer who worked specifically on this type stuff. It was the diligent work of this officer who finally got JD arrested and charged.

After that, the work was really just beginning as many of us called the DDA in charge to get him to push for trial, no deals, and push hard on all counts. There must have been 10 or so of us who hounded this poor DDA :D All this took well over a year after the initial arrest.

in this area, our legal system is not screwed up. the Communications Decency Act makes it clear that a web operator is not liable for the statements made by posters, even if the posts are untrue, libelous, etc.

Joe and all who brought this guy down are to be commended. While I do not post often but do regularly lurk, I have much gratitude for those who give a crap about pursuing scumbags who take advantage of the integrity of this board. Not knowing Wayne's reasons for insulating this guy, I'm sure it will get reconciled soon.

Joekasa: My dealing with this JD Dude was limited to minor stuff on my 914 & 911restoration project. JD assisted me on dropping my engine, wheel bearing replacement and brake work. Even back then, he was difficult to pin down as to when he'd show up.

Even though JD didn't really scam me, I never let him leave with any of my parts.

Too bad for me, I then got scammed by the famous SF Dude, Rich Kreiger, Fastclassic, Born2Bfast after i received the engine he "built", things in writing was never done, etc. I had to start completely over.

Maybe this scumbag will see some of this justice.

Someone who "only" steal from one out of a hundred people is no less a thief.

I'm glad this POS is off the streets. I'm actually shocked that our legal system came through on this one - especially for a bunch of "rich" Porsche owners. I'd love to see a similar end come to other "Wenzelers" out there (a few of which have been mentioned here).

Thieves have no honor and deserve to be treated as such.

Joe and the others get a free round on me sometime.

Am a bit surprised that after this thread has been on the forum for four days at the top of the OT forum, almost four thousand views by Pelican members and almost 80 posts that not one person from Pelican has posted. They sure were quick to post (or delete our posts) when Jimmy was on the loose and stealing from us.

Mark Frasier is still not back on the forum.

Jimmy Deering is still in prison and will be for a fairly long time. As well his last name is still being blanked out. Why?

Sad to see...
