His New Recruiters
During the late ‘90s, Jacobson had been waiting to hop on board a cruise when he met Don Hart. He was from George and previously operated a trucking company. When he became a part of the scam, he introduced Andrew Glomb and Richard Couturier to Jacobson. The latter liked to give away the Monopoly pieces at parties. Meanwhile, Glomb was a guy who already served time in prison for transporting cocaine and preferred to give them away to people in desperate need of money. He gave one of them away to a guy who had been arrested for dealing 400 pounds of cocaine in 1999. Together with the other “recruiters,” the guys sold pieces to a number of “winners” over the years.
What Uncle Jerry Means
They tracked down people willing to buy the pieces and instructed them on how to claim the prizes. One time, he sold a piece worth a million dollars to Gloria Brown, one of his wife’s friends. On the side of a highway, he handed her a piece worth $40,000. Later, Brown talked about how Colombo gave her directions on what to say and asked her to lie about her residence to avoid raising suspicion. He drove her to a McDonald’s himself so that she can claim the prize. As they neared their destination, he called “Uncle Jerry.” In the Italian mafia culture, calling someone “uncle” is a way to show respect. This was the end for the man who put his money in strip clubs, fought off South Carolina local authorities trying to shut down his business, and enjoyed a lavish lifestyle. You see, he got into a car incident.
