I think we owe a big thank you to the Orange Police Department for following up on the accusations related to John and Marisa Cantu so quickly. It is my understanding that although John and Marissa have been perpetrating these con's for several years that the Detectives at Orange Police Department only became aware of the case in August 2009.
An article in the Foothills Sentry (Marjan Dunn) dated February 9th noted the Police raid on Cantu's home related to the Fraud Investigation. It's Ms. Dunn's articles that helped really start bringing the victims together and we appreciate her revisiting the situation. The point here, now, is to make as many as aware as possible so that John and Marisa are not able to continue conning people out of their hard earned money.
Where do we go from here?
I hope that as many victims as possible contact the District Attorney's Office to ask them what is being done on the prosecution side. The number of families that have been taken by these people and the money involved is ridiculous. Please take the time to drop a quick letter, make a phone call or actually stop by the DA's office to let them know your concerns.
It's time that some justice is given to these people. Both of them. I have detailed Marisa involvement on this blog as have several others. The same them has been repeated to those we have spoken with, they are in this together. She thinks she can claim innocence now, keep all the money they have stolen and just walk away. What a joke. She knows what was done, how it has affected the lives of others and is only concerned with her own skin. This woman is a real piece of work, her and her husband are cut from the same cloth.

Does anyone know who we should contact regarding the Cantu fiasco? We invested money with them in 2006 from another state after moving from Orange. Should we contact the police department? Is there a contact name?
ReplyDeleteYou should contact 714-744-7502 direct line for Detective Dave Pasino or Sgt Adams with the Orange County PD. You call 714-744-7444 and ask for Sgt. Adams. If they ask what it is re: Just say Cantu - I called on Friday and Sgt. Adams' voice mail indicated he was on vacation. I was able to leave a message for someone else.
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone know why John is in the hospital?
ReplyDeleteYou invested from another state after moving from Orange? That's horrible. If it was done over state lines, doesn't that become a federal offense? I hope you contact Detective Pasino.... They need to know. And, please confirm if Marisa was involved b/c she IS involved in almost all transactions.
