The Binge. Feed your true crime obsession. The Binge. On the surface, Sarah seems very open. But I know from talking with her all these months that her stories have a tendency to change. It's tough to figure out what her motive was. Did she intentionally con investors? Or did she think she was running a legit business?
Or maybe she started out thinking she would run things the right way, but just kept fucking up. And instead of coming clean, Sarah got deeper into denial as she was getting deeper in the hole.
So I'm sitting in her office one day.
This is George Polos, one of her company's investors. You remember him from the last episode. At this point, George had a feeling that her hard money lending company was bullshit. But he was still hoping to get his $125K back. So he stuck close to Sarah. One day, he was visiting Sarah's office in Fashion Island.
I pull up in my truck. I see a tow truck out there. And it's right next to her Rolls.
As he parked, he saw Sarah's Rolls Royce, the one she had wrapped white on white with the navy blue soft top.
I mean, I watched it get repossessed. The guy's loading on a flatbed. He's got it out there. He's cranking that thing right up. And I run into the office. I go, Sarah, they're taking your car. She goes, oh, well. She didn't even, like, flinch. I go, how are you going to get home? I'll walk. And you could see the scared look in her eye, like, what the fuck? It's all coming down.
