Revisiting past disputes of the dubious kind

Recently on my blog, I named Realtor Patrick Torre and towing company operator John Warrington my "Poster Boys for Bad Behavior." Today, the promised update on their escapades.

[Nicole]

Warrington sounds like a character from "The Sopranos."

[Tammy]

Patrick Torre is a liar and a thief. Anyone who believes the lies that this man tells is dumb. He will soon be serving time for passing so many fraudulent checks. If he's really going to pay back all of the money he owes people, how come he hasn't started? I cannot wait to see this scumbag in jail. Patrick Torre is a liar, a crook and a thief,

[Libertarian]

Sounds like Greg needs some folks to help "convince" these scum to do the right thing... ;-)

[John Hoff]

Towing companies seem particularly prone to abusive behavior, and I've been documenting these patterns all over the nation on my blog, www.towingutopia.com

I am more interested in "non-consent" towing horror stories than the "scratched my car, didn't pay me" kind, but those who do one do the other. If you have any non-consent towing horror stories for Orlando, please contribute to my blog.

[Lucky]

These low-lifes should be damn glad that their victims opted to take the high road. Me? I'd be just as likely to extract what they owed from their hide, particularly this Warrington thief.

[Michael]

I would be going to small claims court, or filing fraud charges against the two driver. Along with contacting the BBB.

[Tammy]

Patrick Torre is such an unethical thief he doesn't even belong to the BBB! He and his wife Irma have changed names of their businesses and assets so many times to get out of paying their debt. Torre should get ready for jail.

[Have a Life]

It seems to me that you "Tammy" need to get on with your Life. Do you get off on slamming people that use to take care of all their worthless employees when the market fell out and they sat around collecting paychecks while chatting, watching movies, diddling themselves...basically doing not a damn thing to even TRY to keep their product alive and revenue coming in. Or do you think those people, "Tammy", have forgotten about that??
I would think that if you exert half the energy you now have with all these negative blogs just think if you would have spent that kind of energy when you were taking handouts from Pat Torre and his kind wife Irma. Would you sell your car to make sure that your people and their families were taken care of?...I don't think so.
You should be ashamed of yourself.
Build a bridge and get over it.

[Tammy]

Hi Pat! I'm so glad you're reading these comments, you low-life crook! You are again blaming others for your problems and lying about what kind of people you and Irma truly are, CRIMINALS! I can't wait for you to be sentenced to state prison for all of the bad checks you have written as well as the money you STOLE from innocent people and then tried to come up with lame excuses. The reason you are out of business Torre is that EVERYONE knows what worthless people you and your wife are. People won't stop blogging about you until you repay your judgments and go to jail, where loser criminals who lie and cheat their way through life belong. You fooled me more than once, dirtbag, never again! Trust me on that, you have a big surprise coming your way!

[Tammy]

In case you want to keep lying and blaming others for your crimes, let's see just some of the people and businesses you stole from! Remember, there are many, many more judgments, not to mention the $47,000 lien to the IRS because the Torres cannot be bothered to pay their taxes.

Jason and Judy Black :$5,150 Way to go! The Blacks are wonderful people who are true realtors while Pat is a fraud!
Kleber Plumbing Services:$420
Falcon Termite and Pest Control:$724 Looks like Pat likes to prey on small businesses, too!
Graphic Systems, Inc:$3446.40
Credit Management Services:$4,019
Paul McGarigal:$15,000 Wow, trying to cheat another realtor! Didn't get away with this one!
Pohl & Short, P.A.:$24,000 Looks like the Torres cannot even pay their lawyers anymore!
Tile and Carpet of Altamonte Springs:$7.800

Now don't forget... there was no sales rep for over a year. How would the "Diddlers" have any work to do without an outside sales rep?

[I C 33rd]

He wanted his employees to sell something that wasn't being produced. So, basically "Have a Life", you wanted his employees to join in on the scam of charging clients for something that never came out!! Come on now, you just proved the scam is true! I hear he was charging people left and right for ads that didn't even exist.

[Tammy]

The best part is if you call Irma about their magazine she lies (comes easily to the Torres) and says there is a new copy at Publix stores all over Florida. HAHAHA! Why can't you stop lying for once, Pat and Irma? You're such criminals and sociopaths.

[GFL]

Rumor has it Pat Torre was arrested. Can anybody confirm? I'd love to frame his mugshot.

If you have a dispute with Patrick Torre, please contact Orange County authorities to let them know about other criminal activity.

[Scott]

Kim or Tammy,
I worked at Tower in 04. I didn't notice anything strange back then, but I left before 06 when the news says he tried to sell that house. He always seemed a little too slick. Do you know what kind of schemes he was doing? I'm just curious. It's always crazy when you see someone in the news that you knew.

[Ginnie]

I saw that he donated over $10,000 to the Republican Party in 2006. Seriously, if you owe all these people money why are you donating money to the Republican party.

[karma is a bitch]

I'm ashamed to admit I was related to this man at one time. Thankfully, my aunt had enough sense to leave him many years ago.

[not important]

Okay guys , first MR GFL don't pay it off like you now nothing , all this time you have know what was going on thru we b sites etc--If YOU ARE :Larry Stuart "the victim" and are hiding behind this false name be a man and come on out
You will be in court and on the news as well
such stupid comments and calls about Pat leaving the country because he has millions off shore!!!!
OMG have you all lost your mind, don't you think if he did he would write the damn check for 145k you have been whinning about instead of having to go thru this?????Besides Larry "investments are risks-you have delat with Pat for quits some time and as soon as the market crashed you became the victim-remember you didn't want your noame on any paperwork--"hiding something are we"
As far as Scott goes ,don't get involved if you are just one of the "followers" who have nothing better to do shame on you
All you so called "victims" will not be able to hid anymore--you started this and we will finish it, you have to prove yourself in a court of law as well.And the news will hear the other side of the story and since none of the "victims "have been mentoned I will be sure the news has that info-then people can go to your business etc and find out what you are all about
Get some rest you will all need it

[GFL]

I am not Larry Stuart. I will be calling the detective when I return to the country to let the authorities once again know how Pat stole from me and my company, I will reveal my identity.
