happyjillin Posted July 7, 2022 Report Share Posted July 7, 2022 Gee my not close as Mexican families are knowing about each other, know who's good bad or ugly and what we all had for breakfast. And y'all are so naive that you don't think this family knows when a member changes his underwear even!-SNORK! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given the lack of facts I think Enrique has hit the nail on the head..just my 2 cents/pesos. I wonder if there are any folks who used to be in the Old Trailer Park and had to move/evicted. There is a trail of bad experiences........ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m well aware of the history, but let’s stick to the facts at hand and not rumors. Hopefully we will learn more as the investigation progresses.

alberto Posted July 8, 2022 Report Share Posted July 8, 2022 This is all rumors. Mexico is very corrupt, give money and you can put someone in jail. This has nothing to do with Orourke other business. It´s strictly about Centro Laguna. Omar did nothing but make Mr. Donald the orignial owner a great investment, Donald invested in Omar who is a great visionary and actually made this mall a very successful project, the daughter husband was very jealous of Omar because Donals loved him. Daughter came in and her and his husband which hated Omar decided to play him very very dirty. He did not deserve to go though this. Fake news and rumors is all there is. Corruption, extortion and injustice is what this is. People that know Omar know him for his great projects, hes a very hardworking and honest man. It´s very unfortunate and sad that these guys pulled this off. Im happy to answer any questions. Don´t believe what the media says, they got a good ammount of money too. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This sounds as possible as what we have heard to date, not sure as if I would agree with Omar being so lily white. But when your in the real estate business you can expect to make some enemies along the way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alberto Posted July 8, 2022 Report Share Posted July 8, 2022 On 7/6/2022 at 7:25 PM, Enrique said: Omar owns centro Laguna mall his office is at the back kind of behind the Chinese food place. His family run O’Rourkes investment and they are tied with Lloyds. And they’ve got the radison blue thing. As well as other property developments around the lake. He’s in for $10,000,000 usd in fraud. Also rumors of laundering for organized crime through the casino and the investment place as well as other business. Anyway If the authorities go after that money then yes all these businesses could be affected. It’s been rumored for years they’re mobbed up. If you have business dealings I’d get out while you can. I’ve heard Lloyd is already trying to disconnect from them. By the way I’d stay clear of centro Laguna for a couple months incase of reprisals. Certain groups here get mad when they’re financial interests are interrupted. This is so not true Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Don't listen to rumors but.... here are mine". That´s my opinion and I´ve been living in Ajijic for more than 20 years, I know the people involved. All I can say is to wait until the investigation continues but what I know is that there is money involved and Omar is being extortioned.

It’s the same press release that’s been circulating in the news with the exception of an additional paragraph saying close relatives of the family contacted the newspaper to underscore that his case has no connection to the Radisson Blu Condo Hotel nor any business owned and operated by members of his extended family who have been involved in local real estate and investment enterprises for more than six decades. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
