Richard Wayne Bennett Crime Time Line

The following are some highlights from Wayne Bennett’s life of crime. I pray that this information is discovered by potential victims prior to being hurt or losing everything… Bennett’s cunning skills of conning are so adept that you are likely to think that he is the most sincere, loving, caring individual with a difficult past. He may say things like, “The past is the past,” or, “but I’ve changed.” And you might buy-in to his benevolent facade. Many have… and many are, right now, in this very moment as he continues to build-up and bolster only to bilk, belittle and betray. – David Masters

Interestingly, as creative and intelligent as Bennett is, he inevitably will attribute his own psychopathic attributes and criminal attributes to those who may stand in his way or dare to thwart his continued criminal activity… even though this is a clearly documented textbook tactic of psychopathic behavior. I find it fascinating that many of the claims that he makes about me, in an effort to discredit me, come from his own documented criminal past (as seen here). I am somewhat disappointed that even though he has exerted 20 years of dedicated, strenuous non-stop effort to “take me down” (and invested “a million dollars” to do it) that he couldn’t even be creative enough to accuse me of things that he hasn’t already done. Well, there’s still time… – David Masters
