Full Episode
I was a good cop who got conned by one of the smartest guys in the world. Looking back on the story, I feel like a fool. Something I deal with every day. How could I let that happen? How could I let this guy destroy my life? Darko Jovanovic, the time I met him, he was a fraudster from Windsor. He had convinced people for like two years that he was a doctor. He was doing like analysis and stuff.
He was scamming people, tens of thousands of dollars. I think there was like 17 victims and he just didn't care. Like, you know, he, he had one of the victims was a young girl and he said that she had a brain lesion and he said, and he said, he claimed that he had like, um, uh, ability to kind of, he had like privileges across in Detroit.
So he diagnosed this girl with a brain lesion and then told the family, look, you know, I set up an MRI and treatment for you in Detroit. It costs $58,000. I think it was, you can, I've already paid for it. You can, you can pay me in like, you know,
know every month or something like that right and so he gets convicted he does a little bit of jail time they come in canada they don't give a lot of people i think he did eight months or something and then he was in london now when i met him he introduced himself to me as aaron barack and he said he was an engineer and how i met him was i was selling my car and i live in an okay neighborhood
had like an old lexus rx that i needed to kind of sell and and uh so he calls me and says hey look i'm uh i'm an engineer i'm busy i've got my own consulting company um you know i'd like to you know take a look at your car can i come next week and i said yeah no problem you know like just call me back and other people are interested so comes back the week after And calls me up and pulls up.
He's driving like a, like a mint Lexus LS. I think it was a 400, 450, whatever it was. It was an older one, but it was like pristine. And he comes up and gives him the story. Actually showed up, said he was Israeli. Said that he was Jewish, Israeli, whatever. And he brought a bottle of wine. you know, to see the car. I'm like, man, that's strange. He goes, oh, I'm Israeli. That's what we do.
We don't show up to people's houses without something. I'm like, oh, okay. You know, I've never met an Israeli before. So you're telling me that. And so he looks at the car and he's like, oh, yeah, I'm very interested. You know, it's for my stepson going through a divorce. But, you know, I want to make sure my stepson has a car. So he goes, but I'll call you back and I'll come back and see it.
So he befriends me. To make a long story short, he befriends me. I don't tell him much about who I am. But he wants to get together. He wants to meet over lunch about his divorce and stuff. He's going through a rough time. So we become friends. And he's a nice enough guy. And eventually, actually, I meet his mom.
And the funny part of this whole story is that his mom kind of supports everything he says. And his mom's like, she said she was 80. She's probably like 65 or whatever. She said she was a Holocaust survivor, you know.
