Doesn’t even mention the drug arrest. This could have been settled with some drug counseling. What a shame. People make decisions without fully thinking them out. I am sure the girlfriend feels guilty but really shouldn’t.

Just which one was he?
I stopped watching a long time ago because of how rigged it looked.

Well, there you go. His fiancee should have stayed until the whitecoats came. Don’t any of these people have any common sense?

As I understand it, this was to be his 3rd offense, which means that he was looking at a possibility of life in prison.

Yeah, knowing how its rigged does take the fun out of it, but I still watch because I enjoy learning about the rare collectibles, and antiques they take to get appraised.

He didnt appear on many episodes. One I recall he was constantly outbidding all the others. Apparently it didnt matter to him how much he paid for each unit.
Another of one his more famous moments on the show:
