What's In A Name? Brian Langenbach, Arizona

Years ago, a con man bought some land from my mother. It took me, my sisters and a very good real estate lawyer several years to get rid of him and get the land back. By then it was too late to help my mother at all. It was very sad at the time. Recently, my old neighbors in a small, Arizona town have run into the same sort of fellow. Third generation Arizona ranchers, this family worked hard all their lives, not for any particular goal but because that is what ranchers do. This guy, Brian Langenbach, has purchased their land and former life-long home, only to tie them up for the last two or three years, never making a payment, blocking all efforts to get it back. What sort of a person does that to old folks? Not only has he completely messed up their retirement, he has borrowed money and tied up other people,(retirees,also) with seconds and loans that will all be lost if he doesn't pay for the original loan. This man is easily Google-able, and with that, a pattern emerges of failed businesses, short and long cons and just plain low-down business dealings. Some of the stories about him show him to be vindictive to a disgusting degree. If someone happens to gain a judgment against him, he will go out of his way to trash the property that has been repossessed or just skip out, never to pay anything toward the amount of the judgment. Add that to what he has already done in order to get to that point, and an elderly, trusting person could easily have their retirement completely ruined. It happened to my mother, now to my friends, it must happen all the time. Of course, there was no Internet when my mother got fleeced. That is why Google can save people now. If ever you think of trusting someone with a glib line, or a winning personality, make sure you stick that name in the box and see what pops up! I know this guy will have a harder time, next go round!

Langenbach and his partner Jerry Dave Greene are cut throats. They are on their way to stealing as much as Bernie Madoff. They will spend the rest of their lives in prison also.

[Someone who cares]

Brian Langenbach and Jerry David Greene (goes by 'Dave Greene' now) have so far successfully ripped off millions of dollars from unsuspecting investors. I hope they go to jail for a long time & go flat broke as they have mercilessly made happen to others.

The day is coming rest assured; green is soon to be prosecuted.

Maybe green should be preparing for another fake heart attack. Criminals do that to try to avoid court. Won't help him at all. Maybe he should just drop dead. Let his wife and daughter take the fall. They are all involved you knwow.
