Chapter 64 fourth quarter

At the beginning of 1997, Xiantai took away the various documents of the maid Donna Lawson, and then applied for an ID card with Donna Lawson's name and fictitious address in Fort Lodida.She also gave herself a new birthday, July 11, 1943.Only the photo on the ID card is Xiantai herself. One day in May, plainclothes detective José Alfonso saw Xiantai secretly slipping some lavender lipsticks into a handbag in a store.When He Sai showed his police badge, Xiantai screamed, saying that He Sai molested her.Hearing the sound, Kenny rushed to grab the bag and wrestled with Jose. Xiantai took the opportunity to escape through the door, and Kenny also escaped.Jose pursued closely, and under the guidance of passers-by, finally captured Kenny carrying the bag.

Kenny was charged with gang robbery, obstructing official duties, resisting arrest, assaulting law enforcement officers and assisting other criminals to escape.He resisted with silence at first, and then tricked the police with a fake ID card.Soon, a lawyer rushed to the police station and ransomed Kenny with $10,000 bail. When the police wanted "Donna Lawson" based on the ID in the handbag, it turned out that the same woman had also been involved in a car theft.On February 3 of the same year, "Donna Lawson" signed a two-day car rental contract at a car rental company in Daytona. The age and social security number are all bogus.

On the afternoon of June 12, a woman who claimed to be Donna Lawson came to the passport office in Miami, the capital of Florida, saying that she wanted to apply for a passport to go to the Bahamas.The staff first thought this requirement was strange, because American citizens do not need a passport to travel to the Bahamas, just like traveling in the United States, and then found that her name was on the list of wanted criminals.When the staff printed out the arrest warrant, it didn't look like it.The “lady of labor” here has little in common with the woman José Alfonso describes as “an Elizabeth Taylor imitation.”After careful investigation, it was found that the person who came was Xiantai's maid, the real Donna Lawson.Xian Tai is going to send her to Nassau this time to "clean the house of the Kemes family there".

It is only now that the police have connected Xian Tai, who is involved in the disappearance of Syd Ahmed, with "Donna" in the robbery and car theft case, and they feel sorry for the missed opportunity.When they rushed to the apartment rented by the two of Xiantai according to the address provided by Donna Lawson, they saw clothes and trousers scattered in the open suitcase, various blank forms were spread on the table, and there were plates in the kitchen. It was a half-eaten lunch, the sink was full of used pots and pans, and a few wigs were thrown on the floor.The landlady told the police that Xiantai and Kenny had slipped out the back door about 10 minutes before they arrived.

Jose Alfonso later said: "I had a hunch at the time that it wasn't just theft, that there must be something more important. No one would keep those les Fleur lipsticks for $19." Silence refuses to answer questions." After about half a year, Xian Tai and Kenny returned to Florida. One day in December 1997, the two walked into Oakwin Financial Company in West Palm Beach, pretending to be Dawei Kazidin, and used the property of the Kemes family in Las Vegas as collateral to obtain a loan of 280,000 yuan. Dollar. Years ago, old Ken Keymes, who was getting a lot of trouble because of his wealth, decided to transfer and hide some property.He requested that the property on Geelongnemo Road be placed in David's name "temporarily".Ken once took care of Dawei's business, and Dawei agreed to Ken's request because of this debt of favor.Never in Ken's lifetime had Dawi been given any trouble with the house.After a while, Dawey asked to have his name removed from the deed, and Ken promised that he would do it.Dawei had always trusted Old Ken, so he didn't ask any more questions. Over time, he almost forgot about it.It was not until January 23, 1998, when he received the installment bill for the first 12 months from Aokewen Financial Company, that he knew that his name was still on the deed. $280,000 loan, 937% interest, 30-year installment payments, nearly $3,000 a month.Dawei was at a loss, so he called the bank to inquire, only to find out that all of this was handled by Xiantai, and Xiantai had already withdrawn hundreds of thousands of cash, and the other half of the loan was transferred to Nanette Vickoski account under the name.Xiantai deposited the cash into the Antigua Bank in the Caribbean island of Antigua, and later the money was used to pay the lawyer's fees in New York.

At a dinner, Dawei Kazdin talked about it to a friend who was in insurance.This friend also dealt with Xian Tai, and he gave Dawei a blunt advice: "Dawei, you'd better not pursue this matter, or she might kill you." Dawei didn't believe it, he thought it was too alarmist.He still called Xiantai and told her that if he didn't remove his name from the deed and loan documents, he would call the police.Dawei and Xiantai quarreled on the phone for nearly an hour.Dawie told his lawyer Phil Eaton afterwards: "This woman is crazy. She can do anything." In mid-January before Dawei Kazdin received the loan bill, Xiantai used his name to insure the house with the maximum amount of fire insurance with the "Firefighters Foundation" insurance company.After receiving Dawei's call, Xiantai then changed the name on the deed and insurance policy to Frank McCullin.This person was originally a homeless man in Las Vegas. When Xiantai was doing volunteer work for the charity "The Salvation Army", he and other homeless people were taken from the shelter to work as servants at home. In late January, Stanley Paterson, an unemployed construction engineer, was hired to move for Xiantai. Xiantai asked him to pull all the household belongings to a nearby rented home storage warehouse, and then transport them to Los Angeles in four shipments.

On January 31, the 14-bedroom mansion on Geelongnemo Road, like the house in Hawaii seven years ago, was reduced to ashes in a fire. The fire department's specially trained dogs sniff out every home that has been doused with gasoline.During the investigation, the insurance company also found that the house had just changed hands to Frank McCullin, but the name on the loan contract was still Dawe Kazdin.When the insurance company asks for an interview with Dawei, Xiantai and Kenny let Frank pretend to be Dawei to attend the appointment.Later, the insurance company refused to pay compensation on the grounds of arson.Although Xian Tai failed to achieve her goal, she didn't care too much, because even if the house didn't burn down, sooner or later it would belong to Linda and Andrew.

One day in February, Xiantai took her private notary, Nanette Vickoski, to the San Fernando Valley near Los Angeles, where Dawei Kazidin lived in the Grenada Hills.They stopped the car at the intersection, Xiantai hid in the car by herself, and asked Nanetti to ring the doorbell of Dawei's house.When Dawei answered the door, Nanetti warned him, "You have to pay the loan. Don't think that you will default on this debt." A few days later, when Stanley Paterson was bringing them furniture from Las Vegas to Los Angeles again, Kenny ordered him to bring two .22 janines. In mid-February 1998, Xiantai called Parkway in Cedar City, Utah to order a Lincoln limousine.The late Ken Kemes was a regular Parkway customer, having bought two cars from there.The owner of the car dealership, James Bracklen, also met Xiantai. It was in 1993 that James went to Las Vegas' Geelongnimo Road to give Ken a second car - a silver Lincoln.This time Xiantai asked for a 1997 dark green Lincoln, a so-called "recycled car".After the customer bought the new car, he found a little problem. The manufacturer, Ford Motor Company, took the car back and adjusted it before reselling it.Parkway asked for $30,000, but Xian Tai paid $28,000, and then depreciated the 1993 silver Lincoln for a new one. The price difference was $14,973.50.Xian Tai asked the car dealer to send the car to Belliel, which is a high-end residential area in Los Angeles. At the beginning of February, Xiantai and Kenny had just rented half of the house there under the aliases of Shandi and Mani Galin respectively, and a well-known Italian photographer Danina Scala lived in the other half of the house. Monsa.

James Blacklen, unaware that Ken had been dead for four years, felt compelled to speak to Ken about the deal himself.Xian Tai said: "He is taking a shower and can't answer the phone." James still felt uneasy, and after about half an hour, he called Ken again, Xian Tai said: "You are a step late, he just went to the airport, I want to build a new hotel in Japan." James asked Xiantai for her address, Xiantai said that this place is hard to find, and she will contact the driver when the bus arrives in Los Angeles, and then she will tell the driver in detail how to get there.

On February 27, after Parkway's driver arrived in Los Angeles, Xiantai asked him to drive to the Welsh Hotel in Baveller Hills to meet her, where she booked a $500 banquet.During the dinner, Xian Tai gave the driver a check of US$14,97350 from the Welsh Carriage Bank, and US$100 in cash as a tip for the driver. A few days later, James Bracklen called to tell Xiantai that the check had bounced, and Xiantai said relaxedly, "Don't worry, I'll send you a good one right away. I was very happy that night, drink Too much, wrote the wrong check. Hey, by the way, do you have a black Cadillac, my son wants one..."

This went back and forth several times, until Xiantai turned his back on him, saying that the Lincoln car leaked oil and so on, Parkway had to sue the court.Fortunately, they knew Xiantai's real name and surname. Danina Scaramensea finds her two new neighbors strange.Like their brand new Lincoln, which never goes into the family garage, but is always parked in the neighbor's driveway.Or the woman named "Sandy" had said that their butler, Frank McCullin, was deaf, but then Daniela had seen him talking to "Money Gaylin."One day, Danina stopped Frank in a corner while no one was around, and asked him what was going on.Frank warns her that Xiantai and Kenny are "bad guys" who bugged Danina's phone.He also said: "Don't talk to me again, they won't spare me if they know." On March 8th, when the two Kaimes drove back to Las Vegas, Danina and her "tough girlfriend on a motorcycle" Jill Gallen sneaked into Xiantai's bedroom and ventilated in the air conditioner. A tiny camera is installed behind the mouth. The next day, Xian Tai and Kenny brought back a man named Shaw Little from Las Vegas, who was also found by Xian Tai from the homeless shelter.That night, the three tortured Frank in Xiantai's bedroom, asking him what he had said to Daniela.Danina later saw on the tape that Kenny put his hands around Frank's neck while Xian Tai punched and kicked him and instructed Shaw Little to slap him.Kenny brandishes a pistol and threatens to blow Frank's head off with one shot.Xian Tai took out a knife from the drawer and said that if Frank talked to outsiders again, he would cut off his tongue, and so on. Friday, March 13.Waking up early, Kenny told Shaw Little that today he was going to take him to Dawe Kaszdin's house for a "drop in" because "he pissed mom off."They each brought a clean set of underwear, and Kenny kept a box of large black extra-thick garbage bags, a roll of cable tape, and two pairs of black Nike gloves in the back of the Lincoln. At the door of Dawei's house, Kenny asked Xiao to wait in the car, and he went in first.Xiao heard several gunshots, and after a while Kenny ran out and asked Xiao to take everything in the trunk of the car. Shaw Little went into the house and saw Dawei's body curled up on the floor, blood gushing from the wound on the back of his neck.Kenny put on a pair of gloves, tossed another pair to Shaw, told him to carefully wipe off any possible fingerprints, and collect anything that might leave clues for the police, and then the two of them put the body in a garbage bag , Put three more on the outside, and then wrap it firmly with cable tape.Finally, they wiped the blood off the ground and put on clean clothes. Kenny left his mark after all.As they were loading the body into the back of Dawi's Jaguar, Kenny tried to kick the hatch shut with his foot.He was wearing a pair of black and orange Doug Martins.Kenny wore the same shoes when they were arrested in New York four months later on Independence Day weekend.Later, the shoes and the footprints on the jaguar's trunk lid became key evidence in the case. Leaving Dawi's house, Shaw Little drove the jaguar, one after another with Kenny's Lincoln, and drove along Highway 405 in the direction of Los Angeles International Airport.After they got off the exit of Sepulveda Boulevard, they went around a few times in the vicinity, found a secluded street to throw away a bag of clothes and sundries, and then threw Dawei's body in a small alley behind the airport. up the litter box.The huge black plastic bag was found by a homeless man picking up soda cans at 10.35am the next day. On March 22, Xian Tai and his wife tapped on the phone, and Danina reported to the police that they were behaving strangely and acting suspiciously, and wanted to drive them away.Xiantai and Kenny immediately packed their bags and prepared to go on the road. They planned to return to Las Vegas first, and then go to Florida via Louisiana.Before the group left Los Angeles, Frank McCullin searched for an opportunity to escape, and reported the arson case on January 31 to the police on Geelong Nemo Road, and later assisted the police in catching Shaw Little. After "Sandy" and "Menny Galin" left, Danina Scaramensea found Dawe Kazidin's driver's license, passport and other personal documents and documents in their room, as well as a notebook And a few large sheets of paper to practice signing and so on.A few months later, the photos of Xiantai and Kenny appeared on TV and newspapers along with the news. Danina recognized them and handed over all these "evidences" together with the video tape to the police. After the Xian Tais arrived in Las Vegas, they bought a few more guns from Stanley Paterson.When passing through a small town in Louisiana, they got a large camper van by cheating cars in Utah, but they were quickly recovered by the car dealer. In early April, the two arrived in Wellington, near Palm Beach, Florida, and rented an apartment in a wealthy area called the "Polo Club."During their two-month stay here, Xiantai and Kenny stole the IDs of several neighbors and began to brew a bigger conspiracy. Xiantai knows that neither she nor Kenny has the right to inherit the Kaimes family's property, but transferring real estate is not as easy as transferring bank funds. The first step is to remove Ken Kaimes' name from the contract. remove it. Before Lao Ken passed away, Xian Tai eagerly began to study and study the laws of real estate, during which he received help and guidance from many people who knew or didn't know.Xiantai quickly learned how to draft various legal documents for real estate transfer, mortgage and sale. She obtained blank forms from a title appraisal company through her acquaintances, and at the same time worked in banks in the Bahamas, Bermuda, Switzerland and Cuba outside the United States. , Open an investment account for property transfer under a false name or the name of a third party. What Xiantai wants to get is still the "Santamaria property" that makes her dream. On April 18, 1994, three weeks after Ken's death, Xian Tai went to the Santa Barbara City Hall to register and file a deed of assignment signed by Ken Kemes, transferring the Santa Maria property "for love and gratitude" And transferred to Xiantai.Ken signed the document on December 23, 1993, three months before his death.Unfortunately, the real estate tax ID number on the deed was written as 117-330-40, while the Santa Maria property's ID number was 117-330-60. On May 4, 1994, Xiantai probably discovered the mistake, and she re-registered and filed an identical deed, except that the tax number of the Santa Maria property has been corrected to 117-330-60. Of course, it would be unwise to put this piece of land under Xiantai's name. Once Kaimes' legal heir knows that the old man has returned to the west, it will be easy to find out the fraud.In order to confuse the water, Xiantai registered several shell companies in different places, and drafted many complicated real estate documents to transfer the Santa Maria property between these companies.Although these companies are all controlled by Xian Tai, she is very careful not to let anyone see her connection with these companies.The presidents or chairmen of these companies use third-party names when they are filed with city hall, often without their consent. Later, after Xian Tai was arrested, the police, lawyers and the media were very surprised, how a person who has never been to law school and has no real estate business license has maintained this scam for so many years.A court-appointed psychologist concluded Xian Tai's diagnosis: "He is brilliant, but mentally dysfunctional." On the same day that she registered the second forged contract, Xian Tai signed a loan contract herself, using the Santa Maria property as collateral to borrow 4.8 million US dollars from Aga Khan International Trading Company.In fact, not only was there no loan here, there was no such company as Aga Khan at that time.A week later, on May 11, 1994, Xiantai registered the shell company under the name of Charles Gallagher.Charles is a real estate agent that Lao Ken and Xian Tai have known for many years, and Xian Tai has obtained his consent to use his name this time.Xian Tai told him that the move was to prevent Ken's relatives from "stealing" her property.Charles was named the company's president, chairman and chief financial officer.Later, when Charles demanded that he be "excluded," Xian Tai used several names, including Ruth Tenney, her middle school friend, James Solofi, her masseuse in the Bahamas, and Dawi Ka Zidin, but Xiantai deliberately gave Dawei an address in the Bahamas, and also replaced the i in his surname with an e, so it was pronounced as Dawei Kadsden.Plus there's Kevin Precott, a character who doesn't even exist. Soon, Xiantai "mortgaged" the Santa Maria property to Aga Khan Company in order to "repay the loan".In plain English, it is to let the creditor take away the land to cover the debt if he cannot repay the money.It is worth noting that what Xiantai signed this time was not a normal "mortgage contract", but a "waiver contract".The difference between the two is that in normal real estate transactions, such as transfer, mortgage and sale, the buyer or recipient must ask a property title appraisal company to investigate whether the seller or the transferor or mortgager really owns 100% of the property.If it is, the property title appraisal company will issue a "property title guarantee letter" to guarantee that the buyer or recipient will not encounter property rights troubles in the future.With this property right guarantee, you can do normal transfer, mortgage and sale contracts.However, if the buyer and the seller know each other well, they can make a waiver contract, because the waiver contract does not require a property right guarantee, so the procedure is simple and fast, saving a lot of trouble and cost.But it is also easy to be exploited by some people.For example, some real estate has property rights disputes, or joint property rights, or "stolen" with forged documents like Xiantai. When selling, you don't want the buyer or recipient to investigate the property rights, so you will use a waiver contract.Ordinary buyers dare not accept a waiver contract in the real estate market, because without a title guarantee, it is like buying something that may be stolen. Once the real owner comes to the door, the buyer may lose everything.In Xiantai's transaction, the so-called Aga Khan International Trading Company was actually herself, and of course she did not want the property title appraisal company to investigate the property rights of Santa Maria's property, so it was logical to use the waiver contract. Two days after finishing this transaction, Xiantai made a second loan contract.This time it was the fictional character Kevin Precott who signed on behalf of the Aga Khan International Trading Company, pledging the Santamaria estate to Xiwei Narasenhan for a $4.2 million loan.Xiwei Narasenhan is the godfather of Kent mentioned by Xiantai in his early years, and the former deputy secretary-general of the United Nations from India.After Xian Tai was arrested, the Santa Barbara Court accepted a property lawsuit filed by Linda Kemes about the Santa Maria property.The court wrote to Xiwei Narasenhan specifically for this case.In the reply letter, Xiwei Narasenhan made the following explanation and reply: He first met Ken Kaimes in the early 1970s, when Ken Kaimes was selling the printed membership cards to the United Nations. poster of the national flag.Later, Ken introduced Xiantai to him, and they met twice.Once, an insurance company called him and said that the Kaimes couple had used his name in a suspicious antique theft case. Since then, Xi Wei cut off contact with the Kaimes.Siwei Narasenhan wrote in his letter that he had never been a godfather in Kent, and had never known about the Santa Maria property, or the $4.2 million loan, or the Aga Khan International Trading Company. Xiantai's next step is naturally to have the Santa Maria property mortgaged by Aga Khan Company to Xiwei Nara Senhan to repay the loan.Then, on December 15, 1997, in the third loan contract written by Xiantai, Xiwei Nara Senhan used the Santa Maria property to mortgage the Atlantic Co., Ltd. for US$2.5 million. The third deed of waiver on February 4, 1998 transferred the property from the hands of Xiwei Nara Senhan to the shell company of Xiantai registered in Antigua-Atlantic Group Co., Ltd. In fact, Linda and Andrew Kemes knew the news of their father's death in 1996, but until Xiantai and Kenny were arrested in 1998, neither of the two legal heirs of Kemes had figured out the Santa Maria property This confused account. At the same time, Xiantai also understands that her days are numbered. She has been trying to find a way to sell this land. It is safest to exchange it for cash and deposit it in her overseas account. Buyers who do not insist on title appraisal.Moreover, real estate is not real estate. It is impossible for Xiantai to repeat the old tricks and burn it after insuring the insurance company.In desperation, Xiantai and Kenny had no choice but to "exchange" the Santa Maria property with another property that was easy to sell.They set their sights on the Suleman Building in Manhattan, New York, because its owner is an elderly and frail old lady living alone, Erin Suleman.Xiantai called "Ava" from the polo club's apartment to book a room in the Suleman Building. At the beginning of June, Xiantai and Kenny drove the dark green Lincoln and took another homeless Hesher Antonio Alphali, who could only speak Spanish, they had just found from a shelter in Florida, along the road. Take Interstate 95 north to New York. Walking to a swamp in the wilderness of New Jersey, Kenny asked Hesher to stop the car. He chatted excitedly with Xiantai for a while, and then said to Hesher in not-so-fluent Spanish: "It's good to throw the body here. of." When they arrived in New York, they first checked into the St. Regins Hotel not far from the Suleman Building.Residents and shopkeepers in the neighborhood still remember seeing Kenny wandering around the surrounding neighborhood all day long, and seeing him and Xian Tai often going in and out of high-end restaurants. On June 14, Kenny moved into Room 1B of the Suleman Building under the name Mani Gaylin.Irene Suleman's feeling is correct. He has been monitoring and following the old lady, and he has also recorded in his notes Eileen's daily routine in detail, when to get up, when to take a nap, when and where to go for a walk, and what People on the phone, in particular, and whoever mentioned him, etc. On June 30, Kenny called Anthony Wen, an accountant and notary, and said that he needed to notarize a document and wanted to pay a high price for Don to come with him.He also said that Don was recommended to him by a hotel manager, and asked Don to meet in the lobby of the hotel first.Kenny's purpose was actually to observe first to see if Don Ochi went to the appointment alone.Kenny took Tang from the hotel to room 1B of the Suleman Building. Under the dim light, Tang saw an old woman with reddish-brown hair sitting on the bed. She was wearing pajamas and a nightcap, with a pair of red-rimmed glasses on the bridge of her nose. .Kenny introduced to him that this is Mrs. Suleman, the owner of the building.Don thought she looked much younger than the 82 years listed on the paperwork. The document to be notarized is a property transfer deed.Owner Erin Suleman sold the apartment building, worth at least $4 million, to Atlantic Group for $390,000.This is part of Xiantai's "exchange" plan. If all goes well, Xiantai should draft another waiver contract next, and the Atlantic Group Company will transfer the Santa Maria property to Erin Suleman. The $390,000 is actually the difference between the two. Erin Suleman's name had been signed on the deed of assignment.Tang Aoqi asked "Irene" in Xiantai's costume to re-sign the signature, and he explained that he had to witness the signature with his own eyes before it could be stamped.Xiantai hesitated, saying that she had to think again.Don Ochi later told police: "She didn't have any identification documents. She said she lost her driver's license and passport." Don couldn't confirm whether the disguised "Irene" was Xiantai, but he was sure that Kenny It is the "Mr. Wen". The next day, Xiantai called another notary, Nolly Sweeney, under the guise of Irene Suleman, and asked her to go to Room 1B of the Suleman Building for notarization.Impressed by the fine furnishings and opulent grandeur upon entering, Nolly later admitted that she hadn't noticed whether "Irene" had actually signed it.But she remembered that the eyes of the old lady sitting on the bed hugging the blanket were black, just like Xiantai's.The real Irene Suleman had brown chestnut eyes. In the next two days, Xiantai called Stanley Paterson to come to New York, and at the same time gave Kenny a shopping list, which included syringes, medical gloves, black extra-thick garbage bags, a Rolls of rope, a plastic bathroom curtain, etc. Like many criminals who prefer holidays, Xiantai and Kenny also chose to commit crimes on the Sunday after Independence Day.It's just that they never expected that they also lost their freedom forever by mistake on this day.
