Andrew Fortner; 8 years for phony fund raising
Someone sent us a link on our Facebook page about this Andrew Fortner fellow, a former sergeant in the Army Reserves, who was sentenced to eight years in prison in Missouri for pretending to take donations for the Wounded Warrior Project;
In 2013, Fortner was twice captured on surveillance footage at the St. James, Missouri, Country Mart actively soliciting and receiving donations for the Wounded Warrior Project by using fake literature and trademarked logos.
Representatives from Wounded Warriors confirmed that the charity does not utilize store front fundraising, nor have any donations ever been received by or from Fortner. The Wounded Warrior Project hopes that cases like this raise awareness of these types of scams. At the time of the incidents, Fortner was in the United States Army Reserves serving as a Sergeant.
According to the article, Fortner was also discharged from the Reserves because of this arrest, the spokesman from the Reserves claimed that he was an habitual liar. His attorney had asked for parole, but the judge rejected that request and tossed his ass in prison, four years each of two counts. That’s pretty stiff punishment.

Not bad, they need to make examples of scumbag snotweasels like him. There’s another addition to Bubba & Thor’s cellblock harem! 😈
Effing knob. Enjoy the big house.
Surprised this guy was not part of WWP.
Maybe when he gets out, he can be hired by All Points Logistics. Their standards are that high; I heard that one of their senior executives out of their Reston office had an extensive criminal background.
“Their standards are not that high.”
Hack Stone Publishing regrets the error.
YOUR A BUM !!! (In my Burgess Merideth voice)
And his DD214 is gonna say Narrative Reason for Discharge “Habitual Liar??”
That might be a first.
Was it worth it? Scumbag.
Good. He has that look of a habitual liar. Or maybe a druggie?
I wish every Judge would be as hard on these dirtbags. it seems that standard it to just chase them away from whatever corner they are on.
Based on the chin and jaw to forehead ratio, I might suggest this morons parents are also his aunt and uncle.
Would that more judges gave equally appropriate sentences to more posers.
I hope he gets a stiff punishment every day of those 8 years he’s in the klink.
