Seems to me that a note to the Texas authorities from a Texan resident and person who was taken would result in at least a review of the allegations.

Just my .02
He has been reported to ebay on numerous occasions.

As far as the authorities, some guys from the stovebolt board have attempted, but I don't know what happened. It was reported that he spent some time in jail last year, but I never found out why.

The company, Superior Chrome, was a well respected company doing quality chrome plating for hot rodders. The owner died, and the business was passed on to the daughters. It has since gone downhill. One of the daughters married James' brother Bobby. Bobby tries to do right, but keeps saving James' butt just enough to stay in business. Everyone would be better off if Bobby would leave James hanging out to dry. At least that's my take on the matter.
