    Fake Attorney Busted by His Own Associate

    DateSaturday, February 8, 2003 at 5:06PM

    Con man Harold Goldstein was on supervised release from prison for fraud when he decided to open a law office. An attorney he hired as an associate turned him it after seeing a brief Goldstein had filed to modify the terms of his supervised release. Now he's on the lam, and facing a 10 year sentence, according to this. Apparently, he actually tried a few cases without being discovered. UPDATE: He's just been caught in Las Vegas.
