Pat sends us a link to Inside Edition<\/a> in which Don Shipley tells the story of AJ Dickens’ lies once again;<\/p>\n

Although skeptical at first, [ Colorado TV producer Harry] Vested said he was certain Dicken was the real deal after he got emails apparently from none other than retired Lt. Colonel Oliver North.<\/p>\n

\u201cOliver North came back and said, \u2018This is fine, I verify anything that A.J. says as a national hero and I will stand by him\u2019,\u201d explained Vested.<\/p>\n

Vested was even present when A.J. Dicken cut the cake at a ceremony honoring him and other veterans. Pictures Vested provided to INSIDE EDITION show Dicken wearing a hat with the Navy SEAL insignia.<\/p>\n

But after Dicken hit Vested up for more money, Vested said he grew suspicious. So he contacted retired Navy SEAL Senior Chief Don Shipley, and that\u2019s when Vested\u2019s worse fears came true, Dickens claims were false.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s a phony. A.J. Dicken has never served a day in the military, not one,\u201d said Shipley.<\/p>\n

That’s right – Navy and military records checked by Shipley and verified by INSIDE EDITION show A.J. has no military record whatsoever!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

We wrote about Dickens earlier this year here<\/a> and here<\/a>. I guess his story fell apart when the 56-year-old began taking credit for shooting bin Laden’s face. But his stories were good enough to fool someone into hiring him to provide security in Africa – putting the lives of his employees in danger;<\/p>\n

Dr. Romaneschi and other investors say Dicken used their money and phony military credentials to attend meetings in New York City at the United Nations building, where they claim he allegedly tried to pull off his biggest con yet.<\/p>\n

Dicken was actually named Chief of Security on a mission to Africa.<\/p>\n

Carol Roberts accompanied Dicken on the African adventure and said, \u201cHe\u2019s a fraud and he’s dangerous. He’s leading us in Africa and he doesn’t know a single thing.\u201d<\/p>\n

Roberts says Dicken was drunk during much of the time and provided zero protection.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Inside Edition found the fugitive in an RV park in Arkansas where he was hiding out from the people who want his fat ass on the chopping block.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
