"CHiPs" Star Larry Wilcox Busted By SEC In Penny-Stock Sting
« on: October 08, 2010, 11:04:27 AM »
Larry Wilcox, the actor who played "Jon" on the 1970s show "CHiPs" (about California motorcycle cops "Ponch" and "Jon"), has been busted by the SEC in a penny stock sting.


(Funny...I always thought he was supposed to be the "smart one.")

According to the complaint, Wilcox and a couple of accomplices were busted paying a "pension fund employee" kickbacks to buy the stocks of several companies, in order to make it appear that there was interest in the stocks.

Unbeknownst to Wilcox, et al, the "pension fund employee" was an FBI agent.

Oops.

Guess Ponch won't be the only one taking it in the ass now.

 :loser: Eric is the good one now? :lmao: Nah!  I wanted to add this.... Many many years ago around the time Estrada got in trouble for hitting his wife, Mom and I saw him in the parking garage area(Universal Studios,Los Angeles) trying to talk this young girl into his limo. I remember a couple of other women where walking in front of us and said.. Hmm "now that is Eric Estrada!"  The studio tour had a many look alike s so that is why she said that.
