Is WANTED drifter Eric Kane McGinnis Working at Sands Point Resort Puntarenas, Costa Rica?

Speculation from those commenting on this blog is that WANTED drifter Eric Kane McGinnis, indicted in Delaware on multiple counts of contractor fraud (and perhaps bank fraud,) is working for The Sands Point Costa Rica in Puntarenas. From the website link above, The Sands Point project appears to be an investment of TideWater Partners Fund, LP based in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.

We have exchanged emails with one of the founders of TideWater Partners who thus far has refused to confirm or deny Eric's employment on the Sands Point project. He responded with, among other things, "I copied our law firms in the US and CR and will take legal action against you if you continue with this defamation (libel) against Tidewater. So please do us both a favor and spare us the legal fees..."

In my opionion, if I had invested in a company and learned that they MAY be employing a wanted man, I would want to get to the bottom of it...but that's just me!

That is all we have for now folks..continue to put pressure on your politicians and VP Elect Joe Biden to extradite this clown from Costa Rica. Until he crosses back into the United States, there is not much the authorities will do.

Eric Kane McGinnis Living Large in Costa Rica?

Watching the traffic on this blog, we suspect Eric Kane McGinnis is watching with a smile on his face and new money in his pocket from somewhere close to San Jose, Costa Rica....likely on the coast knowing his love of the sea.

By now we are certain he is building up his bank account planning to return to Delaware and pay back the senior citizens that trusted him with their retirement money to build their dream homes.

Being a man of conscience, we can rest with confidence that he is not burning his money up on fat Cuban cigars, top-shelf liquor and fine young women like he did when he lived in Delaware.

He is saving his money in a Costa Rican bank account to one day return it to every sub-contractor that Eric Kane McGinnis accepted services and supplies from but NEVER PAID! Eric is NOT blowing his new earnings on exotic SCUBA diving and ski trips or flying around in private aircraft...he is saving to pay back those he left high and dry in Delaware!

So as Kane wanders the earth this Thanksgiving, we can give THANKS to him for all the memories and undue stress he has causes our families in the last year! Perhaps we should look under the Christmas tree the hopes that Eric Kane McGinnis will do right by those he may have so cleverly CONNED!

McGinnis Construction Off Deliquent Taxpayer List?

McGinnis Construction no longer appears on the list of businesses that are delinquent on their taxes. Does anyone know IF or HOW the $164,000 was paid off?

All parties are advised to keep a folder of the debts owed by Eric McGinnis or MCS Homes. Also, keeping details and specific evidence will be useful if Eric decides he'd like to live back in the U.S. again.

He may be quietly trying to cleanup his mess with the government, so it will be up to the subcontractors to keep good records when his case comes up in court. I am sure he is counting all of you forgetting or otherwise not having good enough records to nail him

Victim Collaboration

I believe it is a good suggestion to get all interested "alleged" victims together to share notes and collaborate stories. I suggest you plan it in the Rehoboth area and be sure the time works for Officer Kevin Jones to attend. I would also suggest inviting Ryan Mavity of the Cape Gazette.

I believe Officer Jones could help focus the group on productive dialog that would be helpful to the case as opposed to having the meeting break down into a "Bitch Session"

Eric McGinnis Indicted by Delaware Grand Jury

Thanks to all of the victim's efforts, and those of the local Delaware law enformcement (Rehoboth Police Detective Kevin Jones), we finally have a Delaware State Grand Jury Indictment against Eric McGinnis. This means Eric cannot simply stay away until the statue of limitations expires, then return home.

We are nonplussed that the indictment is only for $100,000 when we have submitted a full victim list with damages exceeding $1.3M? Perhaps the Delaware State police have not yet aggregated all of the losses or some Subcontractors may not have taken the time to file their police reports?

Here is the link to Terri Sanginiti's article posted to Delaware Online. Ryan Mavity of the Cape Gazette will be releasing a follow-up article as well on Friday.

This is a HUGE step for the victims in seeing justice served. It is also good to know that the fraud departments of the local DE law enforcement agencies are working the case against McGinnis. I am sure it helped that McGinnis is #3 on the State of Delaware list of Business Tax Delinquints.

NOW it is time for the bounty hunter!

Subcontractors - Have You Filed Police Reports?

Just following up to see if everyone has done their homework? Remember to file your police reports in the jurisdiction where the house is being built.

Also, it appears someone in Nicaragua (Corn Island) is interested in Eric McGinnis (Pictured in the middle here) ...Below is a link to an article in therealnicaragua.com.
