Vehicle scam claims <\/p>\n
The backstory:<\/p>\n
Alleged victim, Jay Tenenbaum, said Hogan<\/a> showed up in uniform and sold him a car for $9,000.\u00a0<\/p>\n Tenenbaum said Hogan made continuous excuses about the title, stating, “He kept putting off giving me the title, ‘Oh, I got it. I’m in Kabul.'”\u00a0<\/p>\n Tenenbaum admitted he had given up on police catching Hogan after waiting over a year.\u00a0<\/p>\n Authorities dismissed the warrant after failing to serve it due to a bad address in Cobb County for Hogan.<\/p>\n Ongoing fraud allegations <\/p>\n What they’re saying:<\/p>\n South Fulton Police fired Hogan in 2024, less than two weeks after receiving a complaint about a possible vehicle scam.\u00a0<\/p>\n Hogan also allegedly borrowed $20,000 from a law enforcement co-worker to buy a nonexistent building, repaying only a fraction before disappearing.\u00a0<\/p>\n Reflecting on the arrest, Tenenbaum advised buyers to “get a real title right away” and added, “this guy needs to go away for a long time.”<\/p>\n The Source: The information in this story was gathered by FOX 5’s Kevyn Stewart, who reported live from the Atlanta Police Annex in Northwest Atlanta, as well as statements from victim Jay Tenenbaum and police reports.<\/p>\n Cobb County<\/a>Florida<\/a>News<\/a>Crime and Public Safety<\/a>Jasper County<\/a> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"ATLANTA – A former metro law enforcement officer turned fugitive is in custody after months on the run,…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":370979,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[150010,630,47,28,30,29,5677,89456,115,628],"class_list":["post-370978","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-florida","tag-cobb-county","tag-crime-publicsafety","tag-fl","tag-florida","tag-florida-headlines","tag-florida-news","tag-ga","tag-jasper-county","tag-news","tag-us"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/370978","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=370978"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/370978\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/370979"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=370978"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=370978"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=370978"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
