Phony Marine guilty of felony fraud

John W. Rodriguez, the Arizona phony Marine we’ve been watching for a year has been convicted of 12 counts of felony fraud (Fox 11 AZ link);

A Maricopa County Superior Court found 31-year-old John W. Rodriguez guilty Monday on charges of forgery, fraudulent schemes and presentation of a false instrument for filing.

Arizona Department of Public Safety investigators say they were first alerted to Rodriguez after a former Marine saw him introduced as a decorated veteran at a special military function. The man noticed Rodriguez’s uniform was not complete and thought it was odd for someone his age to be wearing the Navy Cross.

One down and a million more to go.
