Long Arm of the Law catches up to Gerety/Nicola with Bucks County criminal prosecution

The District Attorney of Bucks County (PA) filed criminal charges against Shawn Nicola (aka Shawn Timothy Gerety, Sean Gerety, Sean Nicola, etc) in March 2020.  See Docket MJ-07302-CR-0000117-2020 and Court Summary for the multiple charges including theft by deception, deceptive business practices and criminal attempt - receives advance payment for services and failure to perform.  He appears to have posted $100,000 bail on March 31.  

Patch reports on the Bucks Co prosecution here:
"Anyone with information on Nicola or believe they may have been a victim should contact Bucks County Detective Eric Landamia at elandamia@buckscounty.org or Bucks County Detective Tim Campbell at tcampbell@buckscounty.org
Shawn's initial hearing before Honorable Jean Seaman has been rescheduled reapeatedly since May and it seems the most recent delays are due to Gerety/Nicola's attorney, rather than COVID-19.  We'll post the new date and location when available as we believe many victims of these repeat scammers would like to attend.
