#Boelter is apparently facing federal charges. Which opens to door to a #presidential #pardon if convicted (if not before). There should be a state prosecution here to make sure justice actually gets served (and so evidence re motive is not selectively presented to conform to predetermined narratives) #maga #trump #Whitenationalism #assassination #domesticterrorism #gunviolence #law #legal #prosecution

There is no kind of hate like Christian love. They asked for help, after the neighbors threatened to burn their house down, they got none; the neighbors burned down their house. When they went to check the mail, a neighbor killed one of them. The survivor asks we spread their story, because the press won't. State says there's no evidence it was a hate crime, effing pigs.

Three rogue traders from same family prosecuted for dodgy driveway and home improvement work

Three rogue traders from the same family have been sentenced following a trading standards investigation into their illegal activities.

In a prosecution brought by Bridgend County Borough Council, the investigation was launched following complaints from residents about shoddy work and suspicious trading practices undertaken by a company called Fix A Drive Limited.

Officers found that Michael Cassidy, his father William Cassidy and sister Charlotte Cassidy had agreed contracts for driveway and home improvement works at two addresses in Bridgend County Borough.

Michael Cassidy was listed as the director of the company and a named signatory for the bank account. However, this was in name only, and he was found to have played a smaller part in the deception.

His father William Cassidy, who was referred to as ‘the Boss’, played a primary role in obtaining and performing work on the homes of the two complainants.

The court heard that large upfront payments were taken for the work and when challenged by the victims, William Cassidy would act in an aggressive manner and intimidate the victims into paying. Any work that was done was of a poor standard and upon assessment by an independent surveyor, was found to have little to no value.

Ms Cassidy also fraudulently used credit cards to pay for materials for these contracts and upon realising their cards had been used in this way, the innocent parties were successful in making a claim against their credit card companies to obtain the monies back. This meant that the local companies from whom the materials were purchased were left thousands of pounds out of pocket. 

The rogue trading family members worked together to gain as much money as they could from their victims using tactics such as intimidation and grooming as well as taking advantage of vulnerabilities.  William and Michael Cassidy were sentenced at Cardiff  Crown Court on 6 March 2025, and Charlotte Cassidy was sentenced at Cardiff Crown Court on 2 April 2025.

William Cassidy had pleaded guilty to the offences against him at an earlier court hearing. Two of these were under the Consumer Protection from Unfair Trading Regulations 2008 for poor quality work and his threatening and aggressive nature. The other was under the Fraud Act for demanding money from victims despite telling them they didn’t need to pay anything until the work was finished. William Cassidy was sentenced to 12 months imprisonment.

After also entering guilty pleas to one offence under the Consumer Protection from Unfair Trading Regulations 2008 relating to poor quality work, and one offence relating to money laundering, Michael Cassidy was sentenced to 21 weeks imprisonment suspended for 21 months and 200 hours community service.

Following a guilty plea, Charlotte Cassidy was sentenced to an 18-month sentence, suspended for 24 months, 10 hours unpaid work, a 20 day rehabilitation programme and an electric tag is to be installed for 4months alongside a 8pm to 6am curfew.

Welcoming the outcome of the prosecution, Cllr Hywel Williams, Bridgend council’s Cabinet Member for Finance and Performance said: “Once again, this case demonstrates the importance of choosing a reputable trader when contemplating any work on your property.

“The residents and their families have been through an extremely difficult time as a result of engaging the Cassidy family. All rogue trading or doorstep crime incident is upsetting, but the despicable behaviours seen in this case are on another level, and include the grooming of a vulnerable resident as well as an attempt to steal a large sum of money from his pension by impersonating him.

“The outcome in this case should serve as a wake-up call for any other rogue traders contemplating work in Bridgend County Borough. Complaints of this nature will always be investigated by our Shared Regulatory Service, and we will not hesitate to take appropriate action.”

Yours is a very elegant reply! You haven't admitted to carrying a powerful weapon, and any observer would say you have clearly behaved cooperatively. This is the way. Be congenial while - in point of fact - admitting nothing at all.
