sorry...I made a boo boo

the scam: a man offered to "store" wine for people and did store some very expensive wine for individuals AND wineries. He then sold the wine at auction and lived off the money. Eventually his crimes caught up with him. He torched the warehouse and destroyed millions of dollars of wine...ended up in jail. Many wineries lost all their retail wine for about 2 yrs.

This is a pretty old story - arson in 2005.
