Kelly G Rogers Trial date set...

It's about time!

On Friday, March 19th, the DA of Collin County finally announced a trial date for Kelly Gordon Rogers, set for July 19th, 2010. This announcement follows a multitude of delays, dating all the way back to October 29th, 2009.

One plausible reason for the delay was to give Mr. Rogers time to return the money. He either chose not to or he couldn’t come up with the money and now time has run out.

The pretrial conference is scheduled for July 14th, 2010. Pretrial conferences are conducted in criminal cases to decide matters that do not inquire into the defendant's guilt or innocence. Under rule 17.1 of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure, pretrial conferences for criminal cases may be conducted to promote a fair and expeditious trial. In practice, federal and courts use the pretrial conference in criminal cases to decide such preliminary matters as what evidence will be excluded from trial and what witnesses will be allowed to testify.

At issue will be Mr. Rogers involvement concerning the "Misapplication of fiduciary property" amounting to $435,355. The indictment details the transfer of money from Lionheart Energy to his personal account, QBiz, Rio Grande Coal, Pool Environments, Superior Soils, GS Investors, TNT Office Supply and Cash.

As an interesting side note, TNT Office Supply was sued in December of 2005 and shut down by the SEC in connection with the Travis Correll Ponzie Scheme. Mr. Rogers was invited to participate in the Travis Correll scheme by Harry Robinson "Robbie" Gowdey, a friend. Rogers was the trustee of Gowdey's personal trust and not only participated in the Travis Correll scheme but also solicited others to participate. According to the SEC (Top of page 12). Rogers went on to create Level Par, for which he was sued by the SEC. He eventually signed an agreed final judgment and paid a $150,000 fine.

At this point; “Fair and Expeditious Trail” has a nice ring to it.

Master of deception--Kelly Gordon Rogers

Does Kelly G Rogers speak with forked tongue? More importantly, is he a master of deception? This is an excellent question and one that's been discussed often among those who've lost money or been involved with Kelly Rogers. After all, how else can you explain why one person ends up being indicted, sued by multiple investor groups, disliked by so many......all the while claiming that somehow he's a "victim" of a vast right wing conspiracy...a plot of some type.

The short answer to this question can be found on the professional networking site called Linkedin. This is the site used to discover his involvement in the "Takedown Group" and "Land and Minerals Corporation" and a host of other corporation.  Recently, we conducted a search for "Kelly Gordon Rogers" and found 4 different profiles. First, Kelly Rogers; President at Land and Mineral Corporation of Dallas, TX. Second, we found Kelly Rogers; Law Terms and Legal Definitions in the Greater New York City Area. Third, we found Kelly G Rogers Kelly Gordon Rogers; Legal definitions in Houston, Texas. Fourth, Kelly Rogers Dallas Kelly Gordon Texas; Lawyer Kelly Rogers in the Greater Los Angeles Area.

Hmmmmmm, Dallas, Houston, New York and Los Angeles? The master of deception?

This information was turned over the General Counsel for Linkedin as a violation of the User Agreement as published by the company. In response; "We have received your inquiry regarding profiles belonging to Kelly Rogers on LinkedIn. We are currently reviewing the profiles in question and will take the appropriate actions upon them. Please note, per privacy reasons, we are unable to disclose further details regarding actions taken upon the accounts”.

Our guess is that these profiles are an attempt to deluge the internet with misleading Kelly G Rogers’s propaganda so the truthful site that discuss his indictment, lawsuits and bankruptcies are hidden to the general public. When attempting to pursuade someone to invest in one of his finanical schemes, the last thing he wants is to have any information about his real life available for all to see.

And as evidence to support these deceptions, Mr. Rogers evoked the cooperation of a convicted felon assigned to harass and intimidate individuals related to cases against Kelly G Rogers. These activities were abruptly halted after phone calls were placed to the Collin County District Attorney's office to report what was happening. No one knows exactly what happened from there but the campaign came to an abrupt halt.

And were happy to report that Linkedin has enforced their user agreements to the extent that the deceptive profile pages have been removed from the site. Chalk one up for the good guys!

These are just a few of the bazaar events taking place in the day to day operations of our subject. Master of deception? You draw your own conclusions.
