 Slippery suspect warrants $1M

Man left justice center after telling authorities he had to go to the bathroom. He has escaped jail in the past.

Updated: Thursday, March 5, 2009 8:49 PM PST
There are No comments posted. View Comments

A $1-million warrant has been issued for a Tustin man who punched a Costa Mesa police officer in 2006 and tricked authorities earlier this week to escape during his trial.

Police are looking for Mark Thomas Georgantas, 46, who is proving to be a slippery one for Orange County Sheriff’s deputies. Georgantas was on trial at Santa Ana’s Central Justice Center Wednesday for credit card fraud and grand theft when he told the court he had to use the restroom.

He was free on $50,000 bail, court records show.

When authorities went to look for Georgantas, he was long gone.

This isn’t the first time Georgantas has fled from authorities.

In October 2003, he and another man escaped James Musick Jail in Irvine by using their bedding to hop barbed-wire fences in the middle of the night.

Reports at the time said he then stole a car and drove to Los Angeles, where he was caught later that day.

Wednesday, Georgantas was convicted of credit card fraud and grand theft. His sentencing was scheduled for March 27.

The charges stemmed from an arrest in Costa Mesa in 2006 when police approached him on a probation violation and found a briefcase full of stolen credit card information he was using to buy materials for his fireplace business.

When the Costa Mesa officer attempted to arrest him, Georgantas resisted and punched the officer in the face.

Police also found a gun on him.

Georgantas is considered armed and dangerous.

Anyone with information regarding his whereabouts is urged to call police.

Update,

 

Jury is deliberating, beginning 3pm today.

 

I was in the middle of my rebuttal argument when we broke for lunch.  Georgantas returned from lunch, told the bailiff he had to go to the bathroom, but walked out with his personal effects.  In fact, he fled.   There is currently a one million dollar warrant out for his arrest.  I finished my argument without the defendant present.

 

(The fact of the warrant is public record, you can tell anyone who you feel has an interest in knowing.)

 

 

I'll let you know the verdicts  once I know them.

Above are the violations just recently charged to Mark Georgantas. The founder of Fire on Ice! This person is a convicted Felon and can not receive any checks or credit cards from anyone unless he discloses that he is a convicted felon for these types of crimes. So he uses different names to avoid this minor detail. Above you will see just a few of his recent activities and below there are 6 PDF files on his last few years of activities. Interesting reading at best. We post this information as a public service for you the public. If you had a molester a rapist in your neighborhood you would want to know, wouldn't you?

 

Below you will see his court dates. Send the Orange County California DA your opinion on why they keep letting him out of jail. I can only guess it is because of job security.

We don’t post this information for competitive reasons. We post it because we are tired of hearing people getting ripped off or just plain cheated. Competition very healthy for any business as it makes you try harder and be more creative to the public. But from what I have seen and heard of in the last few years, I am just feed up with this guys antics! He has over $700.000.00 to pay in restitution just to the State of California Restitution Board! These people will never see their money and that is very sad.

Here are 6 PDF files for your reading from the Orange County DA's office on The Creator of Fire on Ice. If your going to print these files your going to need more paper. This is a must read!

Consumer Awareness

Or call 1 800 321 CSLB

 

CSLB Contractors State License Board recommends that you should check the following items before purchasing:

Check the Contractor's License

Is the contractor properly licensed? In California, anyone who contracts to perform work that is valued at $500 or more for materials and labor must hold a current, valid license from the Contractors State License Board in the specialty for which he or she is contracting.

Unlicensed contractors pose a risk to your financial security because they expose you to significant financial harm in the event of injury or property damage. Few unlicensed contractors have bonding or workers' compensation insurance.

If you contract with someone who does not have a license, the Contractors Board may not be able to assist you with a resolution to a complaint, and a remedy against an unlicensed contractor may be available only in civil court. This is one more good reason to work only with licensed contractors! Another consideration is that unlicensed contractors may not have the expertise and qualifications to do the job right the first time. You could end up having to hire a licensed, reputable contractor to correct the work-and paying for the job twice.

Ask to see the contractor's pocket license and some additional form of identification. The name on the pocket license should be the same as the name of the contractor or business name the contractor is working under.

It is illegal for one contractor to use another contractor's license, just as it is illegal for someone to use another person's driver's license.

When you establish that the contractor's or company's name matches what appears on the pocket license issued by the Contractors State License Board, and before you sign anything, check the CSLB Web site, www.cslb.ca.gov, or call (800) 321-CSLB, to find out if the license is valid. The contractor's license status page will also help you verify the contractor's business address, describe the kind of work that the contractor can perform, if any legal action has been taken against the contractor's license, and if the contractor is properly bonded and insured.

Legal action history information is available on the Web site www.cslb.ca.gov or from the CSLB Northern or Southern Regional Legal Action Disclosure telephone numbers. The Northern California number is (916) 255-4041. Southern Region can be reached at (562) 345-7656.

Complaint information about a licensee is disclosed after the complaint has been fully investigated and has been referred for legal action. Complaints involving probable violations that will likely result in legal action referral are also disclosed. (See flow chart describing the CSLB's complaint handling process.)

2 Escape From Irvine Jail; 1 Is Captured After Chase

A Newport Beach man once accused of impersonating an attorney escaped from a low-security jail in Irvine with an accomplice Tuesday in a flight that involved bloodied razor wire, a rented getaway car and a televised high-speed chase.

The escapee’s undoing, authorities said, was that the getaway car, rented by an unknowing accomplice, was equipped with an electronic-tracking device.

Mark Thomas Georgantas, 41, of Newport Beach eventually surrendered to officials after a pursuit through Orange and Los Angeles counties. Authorities are still searching for James William Costilow, 23, of Riverside.

Georgantas was serving time for grand theft and conspiracy to defraud and was awaiting trial on other charges, said Jim Amormino, spokesman for the Orange County Sheriff’s Department. Costilow had been arrested on suspicion of possessing burglary tools and was also awaiting trial, Amormino said.

The men were present during a midnight roll call at the James A. Musick Branch Jail, a minimum security jail in Irvine, but were missing during a 5 a.m. check, Amormino said.

Somehow, they were able to leave their barracks without setting off the alarm,” he said.

The men climbed over the first row of razor-wire fences into a field, then tried to climb over a second set of 15-foot fences topped with two rows of razor wire, Amormino said. After the men got scraped up, they slipped through a storm drain that they pried open with a bar found at the farm.

The storm drain cover was fastened to the cement with a dozen bolts,” Amormino said.

The men ran through an industrial complex at Alton Parkway and Irvine Boulevard, where they left behind blood and jail-issued jumpsuits, then fled in different directions, officials said. Costilow may have been picked up by a waiting car. Georgantas ran to a nearby pay phone, where he called his girlfriend, who picked him up in a rented car at Trabuco and Culver drives.

He tricked her into picking him up by saying that he was being released early from jail,” Amormino said.

When she arrived, they got into an argument and Georgantas pushed her out of the car and fled, he said. The unidentified woman will not face criminal charges, authorities said.

The escapes prompted a seven-hour manhunt with helicopters, bloodhounds and a search team. The rental car company eventually activated the car’s global-positioning-satellite system, which spotted Georgantas about 2:30 p.m. at Eastern and 3rd streets in an unincorporated area of East Los Angeles, authorities said.

Georgantas led officials on a 30-minute pursuit that snaked through Alhambra, west on the San Bernardino Freeway, then south on the Long Beach Freeway, where he got off at Washington Boulevard, said California Highway Patrol Officer Ron Burch. When he tried to get back on the freeway, CHP officers rammed his car to try to stop him but were unsuccessful.

Georgantas continued north on the Long Beach Freeway to the Santa Ana Freeway, then north on the Hollywood Freeway before the car’s right front tire blew out. He got off at Alameda Street, and his car was boxed in behind a city bus near Arcadia Street. He got out of the car with his hands in the air, waving a note, and was arrested without further incident. It was unknown what the note said.

Authorities said that Georgantas now faces additional charges of jail escape, carjacking, robbery, assault and reckless driving. Costilow will face escape charges when he is caught, Amormino said. Both men, he added, will be transferred to the Orange County Jail, a maximum security facility.

 "FIRE ON ICE" & Mark Georgantas BBB REPORT!  You be the judge!

 We have been asked why we post articles or information about other companies. Our answer is we are not these other companies! Nor do we associate ourselves with these types of companies. We won’t mention names at this point. We post information (public information) for the consumer because some customers don’t do “due diligence” or ask about the company they are dealing with or have purchased from. We sometimes hear about these disasters or problems created by these companies and for some reason we are asked to help these customers resolve their issues or help finish the projects which were misguided or just material/ information was wrongly given. Some of our strong points we would like to share with you:
We answer our own phones without answering machines or answering services.
We have an address and a showroom open to the public 6 days a week.
We address every question and or comment.
We guarantee every product and service we offer.
We are licensed, insured and experienced.
We have a fully trained sales staff to answer all of your questions and or needs.
Our customer service is second to none.
We design, build, create for you the customer.
We never say no. We can build anything!
We satisfy every customer every day.

We do not like being compared to these other companies as we feel we are DIFFERENT! Hopefully you will feel the same way. We would appreciate your comments to continue.
