Update on the Ed Fitzgerald Saga

After a lengthly hiatus of not writing about the disappearance of yacht broker Edward Sellers Fitzgerald, it's time to dust off the desk and get writing again. Fitzgerald left Dana Point, California, on or about July 17, 2009, and has not returned. The problem: he allegedly left with close to $3,000,000 in debts owed to almost 40 different people.

He remains a "person of interest" with the Orange County, California Sheriff's Department, but no warrant has been issued for his arrest. I am told by my sources that the OC Sheriff knows where he is.

Why hasn't a warrant been put out for his arrest? White-collar crime cases take time. The Sheriff needs to dot all of the "i"s and cross all of the "t"s before presenting the case to the District Attorney. The officer investigating the case has been promoted to a new position, but it is rumored that she is taking the case with her to her new position. Something tells me that 2011 will bring some action in the case.

It's time to resume a dialogue and flush out new information that might help the Sheriff move the case to the next level. If you have information to share, please post it in this blog.

A new Ebook will be available on www.smashwords.com under my name fairly soon.
