innocent until proven guilty. When you are in business with someone, sometimes you get caught up!

Alicia and Jennifer remind me of Friar Tuck in the cartoon movie "Robin Hood" when he was fighting the sheriff and uttered the famous quote "You want taxes?! I'll give you Taxes!"

Every good thing comes to an end. If you live in that neighborhood.......you know the gossip. That is why they did so many taxes.....They lied to get people more money back,,,then they reused their clints kids social security number.........yes...they rode in mercedes benz and rentals daily...Kept a $200 weave hairdo.

A shame..........greed...

A couple of real skanks huh?

[farrah]

i fell victim to similar circumstances... I just wish the ladies the best, whats for them is already ahead of them.. As far as people looking from the outs or spredding the rumors maybe yall can shine now since these 2 very educated ladies like myself are faced with their situations...

[The Truth]

There are no excuses for this type of behavior. If we are going to be what they call shining (driving expensive vehicles) we need to get the finances to purchase them legally. Not by scamming hard working individuals, utilizing their childrens social giving them bad credit already and acting as though we never done wrong. If and as I say if, they did commit this offense as they will be tried by a jury of their peers, yes they will suffer. Simple as that! Let Justice Be Served!
