Just to briefly recap a rather complex story, here...

John Foster, the mild-mannered delivery truck driver whose identity was stolen as part of a mortgage fraud at 1564 Hillside Ave. N. won a judgment of $849,000 and change, a development this blogger reported with considerable glee back in March. 

The other side didn't even show up in court to fight the lawsuit, apparently deciding a "head in the sand like the myths about ostriches" defense was in their best bet.

Best to start over.

First of all, allow me to admit that Trent Bowman is not "a big corn fed white guy." He is, in fact, a tall black guy who bears a striking resemblance to the Trent Bowman described in this link, click here, who recently was named Assistant Vice President at Associated Bank. Is it the same guy? That question has not been definitively answered but it sure seems like too much of a coincidence that two guys with the same name would look alike, have similar bank jobs in the same metropolitan area, but NOT be the same guy. At this point, I'm back to thinking that, yes, Trent Bowman was sitting in the gallery of the Larry Maxwell trial and...
