Sad indeed!

Wow- that is truly awful

He was also an owner of Napa point brewing if that helps people remember him

5

A report on Wine Industry Insight this AM reveals his background, the web of lies, subterfuge and deceit he put up in the face of legal injunctions against him. A tragedy just waiting to happen.

6

It has been a tough week in Napa Valley…couple found dead, police shooting and yesterday’s shocking development.

the former investor, Santa Clara County resident > Emad Tawfilis> , had met earlier Monday morning at Dahl’s winery to discuss a $1.2 million loan dispute, said > Kousha Berokim> , a Los Angeles attorney who represented Dahl

What nationality are these people?

I’ve never seen first or last names which look even remotely like that.

Here’s that report from a few days ago…

What does that matter?

10

Might be Persian/Farsi/Turkish part of the world.

11

Sounds like an execution… http://kron4.com/2015/03/16/napa-sheriffs-dept-investigating-shooting/

12

You are one strange dude…

13

I was not expecting that.

14

I think he may have been a Californian, but it’s tough. All those “investors” look alike.

“Berokim” sounds Beverly Hillian. maybe Westwoodian.

15

Persian [of one sort or another] was on my short list.

Also thinking maybe Albanian, Macedonian, Greek, Armenian, Georgian, or Ethiopian.

If those are Muslim names, it begs the question of why they’re trying to get into the alcohol bidness.

And it immediately brought to mind that story of Charlie Trotter -vs- the Albanian mafia.

16

Sorry, Nathan. You’ll have to be a little clearer than that. What is it you’re actually implying?

This is a terrible incident and you’re off on some odd tangent about Muslims. What gives?

17

Wackadoo

18

How did politics get into this?

19

Nathan…

'Nuff said.
