    @fne8w2ah “Two of the central players of the operation, Roy M. Cox and Aaron Michael Jones, were under lifetime bans against making telemarketing calls following lawsuits by the Federal Trade Commission and State of Texas.”

    WHY AREN’T THEY IN JAIL

      How much money were they making off telemarketing that they were fucking banned for life from doing it and they still did it?

      Also:

      At the time, the FTC said that Cox was issued "a $1.1 million civil penalty that will be suspended due to his inability to pay.

      Oh ok, so this fine for more money will certainly mean something…

        I feel like we have places to put people who ruin society. Was it mail, rail, shale? I dunno, set them free and bring me a coffee, bailiff.
