\"Greg<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n

Ten months after I first exposed him, Greg Allen from Marin’s House of Steel now faces a federal misdemeanor charge for using a phony Purple Heart to raise money. Possible penalty: 1 year in prison, $100,000 fine, 1 year supervised release. The FBI tells me there could be more charges coming.<\/p>\n

Allen ran the gym, training young men who wanted to join the Marines, and he often spoke about his service as a Drill Instructor, a Recon Marine, a Sniper — all lies. He wore a Purple Heart, Bronze Star and other medals at public events and fundraisers. He never served in the Marines and did not receive those awards. The affidavit says he and his girlfriend at the time bought the medals online, at sites including Sgt. Grit.<\/p>\n

Allen is scheduled to appear in Federal Court next week.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

It takes a while, but it’s nice to see these guys getting busted.<\/p>\n
