Convicted AZ phony Marine busted in NV
The other day, I wrote that John Williams Rodriguez was convicted on 12 counts of felony fraud in an Arizona court room despite the fact that he didn’t show up for his court date. Well, apparently he’s been taken into custody in Lake Tahoe, NV.
Deputies arrested 31-year-old John William Rodriguez at a home on Eloise Ave. in South Lake Tahoe on Thursday. They had been tipped off by detectives in Arizona where he was wanted for 12 counts of fraud and forgery.
Rodriguez has been posing as a U.S. Marine, an Iraq war veteran, an FBI agent and a detective with the Department of Veteran’s Affairs, among other things. Deputies say he often wore the uniform of a U.S. Marine, gained access to military installations and attended functions such as the Marine Corps Ball.
El Dorado County Sheriff’s detectives say Rodriguez has been engaging in similar activities in the Tahoe area and may have defrauded several people.

He was busted over a year ago. I’m guessing he hasn’t learned from his mistakes.
Thanks to the detectives in the case for keeping us up-to-date.

He needs to be put in a room with a group of pissed-off jarheads for some wall-to-wall counseling.
‘Nuff said.
I’m begging people to come in and tell me that the shit he and others pull is simply a matter of free speech. I’m begging them.
