The one I find kind of comical though is the FBI providing about $3500 to his bank account, then charging him. They probably can't wait to get his property into auction!

Whould that not be considered a "conflict of interest"?

uh-oh...

Tomorrow morning, 12 Feb. at 7:00 am West Coast time on KPNW radio, Eugene Oregon, the host of the Saturday morning only show, Peter Laufer, is going to talk about Bill Hillar.

I heard Peter Laufer's promo for the show today.

Mr. Laufer is going to propose that since Bill Hillar did a good job teaching according to his students what is the problem with his fudging his creds just a little bit?

Mr. Laufer seemed to be serious.

The phone to KPNW's studio line is: 541-485-5769

I cannot find any live streaming info for the show.
any responses here will be directed to the show host Peter Laufer.

That goes with students attitudes towards cheating. Also most students find instructors "good" if htey are entertainnig, not if they are putting a godo solid "product" i.e., facts. The studetns would not know if he was putting out bogus crap as they are there to learn, not evaluate the information for completeness, correctness, or just plain BS.

This tells me that the radio host is a liberal idiot.

My 2 cents,

Elon award recipient arrested

I missed this one, good article Caitlin.
[Don't mess with that Hinton dude!]

Elon award recipient arrested
by Caitlin O'Donnell, February 1, 2011


According to multiple news sources, the FBI arrested Bill Hillar, a 2010 recipient of the Hometown Hero award from Elon University, at his home in Maryland Jan. 25. He is charged with defrauding clients after charging them for his expertise with the Green Berets, and claiming to have extensive military experience.

Hillar claimed to have been a retired colonel of the United States Army Special Forces.

The investigation began with the MultnomahCountySheriff'sDepartment in Portland, Ore., and moved to the federal level, according to Keith Bickford, director of the Oregon Anti- Human Trafficking Task Force. Hillar could not be reached for comment.

Jeff Hinton, a retired Special Forces Master Sergeant with the association of Professional Soldiers, along with Mary and Chuck Schantag, who also work to expose Green Beret fraud, discovered that Hillar served eight years in the Coast Guard and was never a member of the Special Forces.

"This is not the first time we've done this," Hinton said. "We don't go after the guy who claims it sitting at the bar. We go after the guys that make themselves public figures and say they can offer training."

Elon University first received notice concerning the validity of Hillar's background a few hours before the Hometown Hero ceremony took place Nov. 8.

Phil Smith, university chaplain, said the university received an e-mail with an anonymous tip. The tipster claimed military involvement and accused Hillar of misrepresenting his military record.

Hillar was awarded for his work as an advocate against human trafficking. Elon University freshmen nominate people for the award based on their interactions with them, and freshmen class officers select the final three recipients.

Smith met with Hillar before the ceremony and explained to him that the university had received an e-mail questioning the validity of his military record, to which Hillar said that it had happened once before.

His elaborate story began to unravel last year after students at the Monterey Institute of International Studies began to question his credentials. Around the same time, Hinton began investigating Hillar's records and published findings questioning Hillar's military record on Oct. 28.

Hinton found Hillar had fabricated information about his military record and conned multiple law enforcement agencies, including the FBI and Department of Homeland Security.

Within two weeks of Hinton's published accusations, Hillar's website, citing his credentials and advertising his training workshops, was removed from the Internet. Around that time, Hinton confirmed that the FBI was on Hillar's case.

Hinton has been in contact with the FBI about the investigation concerning Hillar and said he was contacted the morning of Jan. 25 with news of his arrest.

"Bill's con-games are over," Hinton said.

Nrext time I'm sending them Glen Wheaton's name and address - that'll teach 'em! And if they don't contact him, they can at least take the dead goat he'll send their way and enjoy some good cabrito!

BS. I notified them in an email more than 24 hours in advance that Hillar was a fake as well.

CYA.
