too bad all the timeshare crooks could not meet the same fate.. Especially the ones that prey on the older folks trying to get rid of unit held for years.

"another one bites the dust".. as queen would say..

Welcome back, Carolinian. Hope all is well.

The disturbing thing about this discovery is that it took 6 days after he was found dead in his secluded garden- presumably of natural causes, that someone found multiple shotgun blasts to his chest.

Now if similar fate could befall others who cheat honest citizens out of their money.

Sad when anyone is murdered! I don't think you really wish this on timeshare salesmen? It does make you wonder though if it was timeshare related ?

Part of the problem

I am not defending the deceptive methods of the sales people but in order to better understand their plight they are under pressure by their managers to meet their quotas every month or they will be fired. They do need to feed their families as well. This is still no excuse for them but they are not totally to blame, it is the whole system.

That would excuse someone who didn't know what they were getting into. I would expect someone with moral fiber to seek another line of employment once they have discovered they are required to cheat customers to keep their jobs. Getting another job can take time, of course. Those weasels who have been lying for years, even decades, cannot point at their sales managers.
