Rock star namesake to appeal sentence

An Adelaide man who took the name of a rock star while defrauding $25 million from financial institutions has dropped a bid to appeal his conviction.

The South Australian District Court last year jailed Romeo Pacifico for 16 years - the longest sentence for fraud handed down in the state.

Pacifico pleaded guilty to 19 fraud charges after obtaining cash loans for more than $25 million to prop up his failing business and fund a lavish lifestyle.

At one stage, Pacifico changed his name to Richie Sambora - a guitarist with world renowned rock band Bon Jovi.

In the SA District Court on Monday, Pacifico's lawyer George Mancini said his client's application to appeal his conviction had been dismissed.

But, Mr Mancini told the court, Pacifico still wanted to appeal his sentence, with a date for that hearing yet to be set.

This is how the legal system FAILS the general public ON PURPOSE.

A similar crime, one committed by a lone 'criminal', the other (Eugene Kukuy Russian/Jewish migrant, aka - Henry Kaye), with the support of Bankers, Realtors, Lawyers and politicians, a law suite the was filed for $52,000,000 which Eugene fled from with the aid of the law, by them giving him a passport.

What a 'JOKE' (you have got to be part of the 'boys' club) the criminal justice system is.

Federal Court finds Henry Kaye misled over 'millionaires' advertising:
