Antonio Colmenares arrested
The Daily Caller reports that Antonio Colmenares, a retired Marine lieutenant colonel, was arrested for lining his pockets with the money he made from selling things meant for homeless veterans in the Miami area. He was the volunteer director of the Miami branch of Florida Veterans Foundation and named the 2017 Military Service Person of the Year by the Greater Miami Chamber of Commerce;
Prosecutors say that Colmenares sold off $300,000 of meals, blankets, sleeping bags, cots and backpacks that were donated to the Florida Veterans Foundation in 2015. They allege that Colmenares deposited $46,800 in a personal bank account, Task & Purpose reports.
“These donated items should have gone to help feed and warm veterans struggling to get back on their feet — instead they were sold to fatten the pockets of those charged with preying on the good intentions of others,” Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi lamented.
Colmenares was arrested and booked in a Miami-Dade jail on Wednesday, charged with felony first-degree grand theft. Another Florida Veterans Foundation volunteer, 60-year-old Antonio Sabatier, was also arrested and faces the same charge.
From a local interview a few months ago;
“What we’ve got going here is truly an attempt to help our veterans get off the streets,” said Lt. Col. Antonio Colmenares, the Director of Veteran Services in the City of Miami.
“It’s helping me out considerably as far as me getting my act together and a lot of things I don’t have due to the fact that I’m homeless,” said veteran Arthur Woods.
Nice.

$47,000…
To throw away an honorable career and nice pension with health care…and go to jail.
For the cost of a truck.
I wouldn’t do something like this for $47 million. But then again, I have conscience, a sense of morality, and desire to not be a complete shitbag.
Stand that p.o.s. up before a formation, strip off all his insignia, break his sword and drum him out of the Marine Corps….!! imho
Yes, TOW,
What is it about people today?
Where is their sense of morality, of conscience, of gentlemanly behavior, of . . Honor?
Why is it so hard for most people these days to demonstrate these characteristics.
I understand a lot of things, but this I just don’t understand.
Randy C.
Only in Florida. what years did he serve.?
In the meantime, the talking heads at Fox Business still talking about a market correction coming to destroy our economy, despite the projections for the first quarter over 5% GDP growth.
On what planet does that tidbit of information come close to being related to what this LTCOL did????
Yef, HOW MANY times have I told you to STOP huffing the floor wax?
Shake your head Yef, maybe something of value will fall out! damn boy, take your pills!!
Better yet, he needs to grab ahold of his ears and pull as hard as he can until he hears the *POP!* which will be the sound of his head coming out of his ass.
If convicted of a felony, does he also lose his military retirement? Or does that only apply to civil service retirement? This is one sonovabitch that deserves everything he gets but my money says some weak knee prosecutor will let him plead to time served and community service and a fine.
No, there are a very select list of crimes that will cause a military member to lose their pension. Even if he’s sentenced to 20 years in prison he’d be the most popular man there on commissary day.
If he goes to jail he would lose pension during that time.
So you’re saying that he loses his pension while incarcerated, but gets it back after his sentence is over?
From what I understand Prisoners who draw any sort of Government pension have it docked for the costs of their incarceration while locked up.

The information I pulled came from here, I think only VA disability is effected, but what the VA doesn’t keep paying then goes back to the service to resume paying. Like in my case I medically retired just short of 20 active years even though I had 25 altogether. So my retirement pay is offset by my VA disability dollar for dollar. If I was incarcerated as I understand it for a felony my VA disability would go down but then the onus would be on the service to raise my retirement pay to the same percentage level of my retirement.
Here’s another I think.

Antonio Colmenares, a festering boil on the asscrack of humanity, should spend a day for every dollar he scammed emptying bedpans, cleaning shitters, or polishing headstones at a VA hospital/cemetery from dawn ’till dusk, sleeping outside and thinking about what a monumental disgrace he is to the Marine Corps and the United States.
This dumpster runoff should wake up with taste buds on his asshole.
Atomic Cocksucker.
Boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooom
SHACK!!!
DTSH. MFR he is.
Badabing badaboooooooooooooom!
hang this cocksucker by his balls
On a meat hook.
Hang this asshole by his SQUEAKHOLE!
Ummm, that’s even gheyer than yesterday’s comment you made. You do know what a squeak hole is. right?
Yea. He does. It’s a new term we’ve been throwing around here at TAH recently. Google ‘Dork The Squeakhole’ it’s TAH-fabulous. Not sure if you can actually hang a squeakhole BY it’s squeakhole, but I get Willy’s point. Think it’s hang an asshole by it’s asshole. If I got it wrong, Willy is free and clear to correct me.
Ummm, ok, wasn’t it one of the corpsmen here that started that whole squeak hole business? I can’t understand why they are so fascinated with a man’s starfish? It starts off with the silver bullet in A School, then before you know it, it’s “dorking squeak holes”. It’s a totally ghey term that gets magnified by 10 since it got its start by a checker of peckers.
Kinda makes one wonder about the one making an issue of it, eh?
No, It is ghey. But ghey is okay, so long as one is not.
Yeah, I’m the ghey one. The person talking about one dude hitting another dude in the brown eye is not ghey at all. Makes perfect sense.
And there is some reason any of us should care???
That grin tho…
$10 says this dude has follow up charges for being a tickle monster.
First time I’ve done this- TOI request on Antonio Colmenares’ AO. Expedite, Danger Close Authorized.
((OVER))
Second, and aye!
Segundo! Hechale la Torre de Insultos a este pinche condenado!
Si! A la Torre con este cabron!
Looks like you guys have this all wrapped up this fine Monday. Sorry I may be a day late and if Antonio Colmenares had anything to do with it, I’d be a dollar short as well.

Sweet baby jeebus. This is so beautiful In terms of development, this has gone from a Hirsohima sized nuke to the Ivy Mike test. The logical progression will next be Castle Bravo, then Tsar Bomba.

He also apparently ran for political office a few times.
Shitbag
And he sold off donated cots, blankets, and sleeping to a tactical supply comapny for 80Gs. He was well respected and very well known. That tells me that each i was dotted and every t crossed before the charges were lodged. In other words, he’s much more likely than not guilty as hell.
Temptation sucks. Surrendering to temptation sucks more. Again, just because someone was a good soldier, Marine, sailor, or airman doesn’t necessarily mean he is a good anything else.
It tells me that he was experienced at being a fucking thief. More than likely he did some shady shit in the Marines, I have a BIL I seldom mention who was also an O-4 Logistics Officer. He was taken to a Special CM because of some shady shit that was happening with Government Credit Cards and other shit. He walked but I often suspect he was pulling some shit.
Looks like ANTONIO COLMENARES is gonna be getting DORKED IN THE SQUEAKHOLE by the boys at the BTJT DELI…
Karma can be a bitch. Perhaps after a stay in prison he will become a homeless veteran in need of a sleeping bag.
Maybe he’ll need Shane Kunzeman and his resume skills once he gets out of jail?
ouch
2017 Service Person of The Year…That went downhill fast.
Can an Officers retirement money be pulled if he/she engages in conduct like this?
It seems to me that I remember a story where one was recalled to active duty then punished and reduced in rank.
Felony conviction and there goes the retirement pay/benefits…
He should be sent to Quantico. I am sure the Marine guards there would be glad to see him.
Someone please smack this guy so hard his head spins around three times. Thanks.
The only veteran he got off the streets is himself. But that appears to be a ‘win’.
On his “Together We Served” profile, he claims 17 awards on his ribbon rack. In the photo Jon posted, he’s wearing 14.
https://marines.togetherweserved.com/usmc/servlet/tws.webapp.WebApps?cmd=ShadowBoxProfile&type=Person&ID=90590
It’s like the old Soviets or DPRK.
You wear multiple of the same ribbons instead of devices indicating multiple awards.
He could only fit 14 before starting a 5th column or going over the shoulder. The scale of the picture indicates he’s only 4′ 5.
