I've posted a number of blogs about fraudsters Anna Sorokin and Alexander Marc Hatton as well as pieces about the Casanova Scammer and the Tinder Swindler. It's about time now to try to figure out they can be differentiated. So, Narcissist versus sociopath. What're the differences? Using the following two lists, a leading London therapist, psychologist Mark Levrant, weighs in on the attempts to distinguish between the two. Narcissist versus sociopath - how to tell 'em … [Read more...]
Casanova Scammer uses “Privilege”
Privileged Offenders. Here's yet another take on privileged criminals. They create a "privileged" persona to scam others. I just blogged here about Simon Leviev, the Tinder Swindler, who worked this angle to the max. The Casanova Scammer Brian Wedgeworth seemed to have a way with women. Posing as a medical doctor who had attended such Ivy-ish universities as U Penn, Duke, and … [Read more...]
The Tinder Swindler – a male Anna Sorokin?
This website is about justice and equity, and so today it's about the Tinder Swindler. It's only fair that I give equal time to a male who's similar to fraudster Anna Sorokin whom I've blogged about here and elsewhere. I have less info about the the Tinder Swindler —Netflix's name for him— than I did about Sorokin, so I promise to add second blog soon about another male who preys financially on women, the Casanova Scammer. And in order not to discriminate visually as well, I'll … [Read more...]
Criminal Fake Heiress Sorokin Deported Yet?
Anna Sorokin, whom I blogged about last time and a while before that, proves my assertion that celebs get special "justice." Before our very eyes in recent years, fraudster Sorokin's gone from a shadowy subject of a Vanity Fair piece on her criminal behavior to a privileged celebrity. Her Netflix series served as an accessory to the crime. It gave her a national audience. So did her zany battle in court to absolve herself of criminal charges. As has her fight to avoid deportation for … [Read more...]
Is socialite fraudster Sorokin still a con artist?
I've written about Anna Sorokin as well as other imposters and con artists here. And I've also written about innumerable psychopaths on this website. Is Anna Sorokin a psychopath? Here's the question needing to be addressed right off if you want a quick answer to whether Sorokin is still a con artist: Is she a psychopath? I'm not sure if she is. However, she's likely a type from the three inter-related Triad diagnoses which includes - narcissists, Machiavellians (manipulators), … [Read more...]
Discrimination in sentencing for gun/tasar mixup “mistake?”
A judge just sentenced Kim Potter to two years in prison. Is this a case of discrimination in sentencing? Postter did admit to making a gun/tasar "mistake?" Her sentence is less than state guidelines recommend. Potter shot victim, Daunte Wright, through the heart. While I've blogged and written extensively about highly privileged white male criminals "getting away with murder," this case is somewhat different. Potter, the defendant, is female...less privileged than a male. But she was … [Read more...]
Another serial killer targeting the Marginalized
Kudos to San Francisco for opening cold cases involving a killer targeting the marginalized. In this situation, the prime suspect is a black man. Allegedly he killed about the same time some of my murderers in Privileged Killers did so in the same city. Targeting the marginalized. I'm slammed today, and so will print the S.F. Chronicle story here in its entirety. However, I've had much to say in the past –and will continue to speak out– about the injustice of allowing the preying upon … [Read more...]
