LEWISBURG — Seventeen-year-old Erin DeSantis won t be eligible to cast a ballot until November, but she s working to encourage others to register to vote in the spring primary.
LARIMER COUNTY Lifelong friends, described as best friends with matching tattoos, and whose families have been closely aligned for three generations, are now adversaries in a suit filed Thursday in Larimer County District Court.
The suit alleges that Justin Loeffler, his partners from Virginia and Nebraska, and a now-defunct Greentree Ag Ventures LLC, defrauded Drew Holm of Platteville, his investment partner and their Premium Choice Consulting Corp., in a failed hemp farm operation initially in Wyoming and later in Larimer County.
The suit alleges that Loeffler and his partners used his close friendship with Holm to lure him into a hemp operation investment that resulted in the loss of $800,000. The grow operation, at the time, would have been illegal in Wyoming, and the defendants were aware of that, according to the suit.
