Xavier:  As I've said, I've always found Bob Nelson to be an honorable man and, in fact, he does have a very well established and  outstanding reputation for his knowledge of real estate, especially residential income properties.  He, as well, has a reputation as an honest person.  

All I've asked of people, is that they withhold judgment until the accusations have been addressed by the Civil Courts system.  I don't feel it's fair to condemn someone based on a news article which has as its sole sourse the filings of a suit to seek compensatory and punitive damages.  The suit may be "well founded", it may be frivolous.  I don't know.  I will wait for the legal process rather than to join others who seem willing to "pile on".  Is that unreasonable?
