Translation of the
communication
from “LEVC”
Because of the confusing verbiage in this message
and the profound command of the English language by
the writer, I am providing you with a translation of
this deeply moving message, which is peppered with
new facts and obviously composed to relieve us from
any undue worries we may have had over the past 18
months.
Editor's note:
The Black type (highlited) is from the Enrique
Letter - the Red are Hank's comments.
Dear Hank,
Hello my dear Investor-Friend
Hank,
You have been very vocal with your opinion about
my business. I would like you to have a copy of the
communication you and many of your friends have
requested.
I have been reading all of
your writings about me. In the beginning, when you
supported and believed in me, I remained silent and
kept you and my other Investor-Friends guessing
desperately while I was busy safeguarding your
monies to the extreme, assuring that no one,
including my Investor-Friends, could get to it.
My brother Osvaldo announced back in December that
he received a communiqué from me. He let it be known
that he wanted all investors to know about this and
promised to release this no later than December 6th.
Because of the self-serving and selfish content of
this message, he was advised not to do this.
You insisted that he should. So now I cave in and
come humbly before my Investor-Friends with news
breaking and earth shattering tidings!
Eighteen months have passed, nearly two years,
since my brother, my family and I became objects of
one of the greatest judicial and police runnings-over
to ever happen in this country, which has prejudiced
us for life and produced severe damages to our
patrimony and that of hundreds of creditors who with
confidence loaned me their monies and to whom I paid
punctually their capital and interest, honoring my
word.
For eighteen months now, which
is the exact same as one-and-a-half years, Osvaldo,
my family and myself have been harassed by the evil
authorities.
Like all of the other High Yield businesses that
have come and gone before us, we shut the doors
after the heavy hand of these authorities became
unbearable. The sufferings of my brother, my family
and myself are truly hurting me first and foremost.
Our family’s reputation has been tarnished forever
and irreparable damage has been done to us.
Oh yea, there’s also a few hundred Investor-Friends
who may be in the dog house as well…the other
thousands are of no consequence or I would have
mentioned them.
At the end of nearly two years, there is still
no formal accusation by the Attorney General’s
office, while all the effects of the running-over
are still being produced and are deepening.
As is customary in the judicial world of Costa Rica,
we are still in the initial phase of the
Prosecutor’s investigation and because I ran like a
White Wittle Wabbit, the fall-out of my non-actions
are starting to increase to a significant magnitude.
Because I am not a criminal but an innocent god
fearing and honest businessman with nothing to hide,
I am hiding.
I am absolutely sure, because I know who I am
and I know the values I defend and because I believe
deeply in God, Who has given me of His immense
strength, that we will emerge well free of this
bitter episode, behind which spurious interests are
hidden.
To the contrary of what I stated two paragraphs ago,
I believe that praying and believing will fix
everything that I just deemed irreparable…
I come once again to reaffirm to my creditors
that I firmly maintain the will to pay my debts, in
the moment that conditions so permit. This in spite
of the stories and threats against my brother and
family members, all unjust, which are woven
including on the internet, this last medium in which
rumors, lies and fantastic novels are constantly
fabricated.
Even though I have managed to move close to two
millions dollars for myself last year, I cannot seem
to find a way to do the same for my Investor
Friends. Even though not one single threat has been
made on the Internet against my brother or my
family, I am telling you that this has happened.
Please accept this fact from me; a Global Business
Entrepreneur whose technology was limited to a
single fax machine at the Mall Office. Please note
that once again I am expressing how worried I am
about my brother and how very much concerned I
remain for the members of my family!
Those who irresponsibly treat me as a perpetrator of
fraud are quite mistaken because you, my creditors,
are the best witnesses that I have never been that,
nor will I ever be.
All authority is evil. Even though my
Investor-Friends have not heard from me since 2002
and wonder if there is any money left at all, they
will vouch for my untarnished record…
Except of course for the six hundred or so who filed
fraud charges against me and who refuse to withdraw
these, even after considerable efforts by those that
my brother and I have consistently failed to
acknowledge. Oh, and the ones who are unable to
witness on my behalf because they have passed on
from this earth or have fallen off the radar because
they were forced to live with their kids and all the
other broke souls who have simply vanished…
If until today I have been unable to pay, it has not
been because I lack the desire to do so, rather
because I haven’t been able to, nor have they let me
do so, since the police and the courts have
immobilized my resources, denigrated my honor in the
national and international banking systems, and have
made me enter into an involuntary cessation of
payments.
I have been paying my lawyers like clockwork. My
brother Osvaldo has greased some palms to exchange
his prison cell for a hospital room and has now put
bodyguards on his payroll. I managed to sell my
whirly birds for a million and a half and sold my
offices at Mall San Pedro. I have moved funds,
deposited and withdrawn amounts for my own benefit
and had to resort to Comet to scrub all the green
from my hands.
Your money is not safe and it is certainly is not
working. I have been unable to do anything with it
because police and courts have immobilized my
resources. Even though Hugh Heffner or O.J. Simpson
can open accounts anywhere on this planet, I am
pretending that I cannot do this. I would fail the
“Honor and Moral Exam” required when opening a
checking account.
I understand that in a State of Law we are all
subject to investigation by competent authorities,
but this does not authorize anyone to fabricate
stereotypes, nor spectacles before the press, nor to
stamp us with light and capricious qualifiers as
some have irresponsibly endorsed us, and who will be
evidenced as false before the Justice Tribunals.
I can run ads in La Nacion and the Tico Times
announcing all kinds of stuff and promising that I
will communicate with my friends and lenders.
Whatever anybody else writes about me is to be
considered incorrect.
To all those who have offended and denigrated us
without knowing us, to those who have been behind
this malintentioned conspiracy, to those who
motivated my leaving the country in the face of
threats received, to those who have lent themselves
to do us damage in the deepest part of our beings,
to all I say, that I have repeatedly asked God that
He give me the wisdom of forgiveness.
I was not done whining about my clan and myself yet.
My family and I are hurt deeply; I mentioned this in
two previous paragraphs but thought it high time to
remind you of this once again.
I thank all the creditors who have demonstrated
their solidarity and who continue with confidence in
me, with or without lawyers, because they know I
never failed them, those who know my case is not
comparable to others, and that, far from twisting
things around, give me the opportunity to reiterate
my will to pay my debts when conditions so permit.
This is all the thanks that UCCR is going to get
while I let them know that lawyers are not
necessary. Hank and his friends finally made me
commit to this show of gratitude. Without their
insistence and putting my feetsies to the fire, I
would have remained silent.
They were told repeatedly and without end that any
communication from me would put yours truly and the
Big Pile of Money at risk. Last Wednesday I decided
that this was incorrect, I suppose… Apparently I CAN
communicate without getting in Harm’s Way, imagine
that!
I make clear in closing that the only one able to
cancel and negotiate the payment of debts I maintain
with my creditors is me and no one else, since I was
the person who received the loans, therefore I am
the only one legally and morally responsible for the
payment of the debts when circumstances so
determine. My creditors know that in the past they
never needed an attorney for me to pay them.
I am a one-man show. Osvaldo’s presence was merely
for decoration. If something happens to me, you are
all utterly and totally up Rio Mierda. I will decide
if, when and how much you might get back. Remember,
no promises here, just my whim.
Again, lawyers are useless.
With confidence in God and faith in the truth and
justice, Psalm 70
For the director of music. Of David. A petition.
1 Hasten, O God, to save me; O LORD , come quickly
to help me.
2 May those who seek my life be put to shame and
confusion; may all who desire my ruin be turned back
in disgrace.
3 May those who say to me, "Aha! Aha!" turn back
because of their shame.
4 But may all who seek you rejoice and be glad in
you; may those who love your salvation always say,
"Let God be exalted!"
5 Yet I am poor and needy; come quickly to me, O
God. You are my help and my deliverer; O LORD , do
not delay.
Luis Enrique Villalobos
The guy pretending to be Enrique, doing an immense
disservice to those who have suffered firsthand, to
whom “moral pain” is something they would gladly
take on in exchange for decent closure.
--
I dedicate this to those who have died during this
ordeal, those who have seen their lives change
drastically and forever. To those who have been
abandoned by someone they considered their friend,
to those who have lost more than just money, to
those who have seen their life savings put well
beyond their reach because their time has run out.
To those who wish they had some helicopters to sell
so they can repair themselves instead of having to
depend on the kindness of their children, to those
who saw their lives and careers interrupted because
they succumbed to greed at the hands of a skilled
manipulator.
To those whose numbers exceed moral comprehension,
to those who deserve better than this…
Hank
