Motivational speaker/radio host stabbed to death
NYC police seek suspects, motive in slaying of Jeff Locker
NEW YORK - Motivational speaker Jeff Locker phoned his wife at their suburban home Wednesday night, telling her he had a flat tire and he'd be a little late. When he didn't return, she called police.
Locker was found hours later, bound and stabbed to death in his car near a city housing project in a possible botched robbery.

Locker, who offered workshops on dealing with workplace issues and had recent financial troubles, told his wife that two people helped him with the flat on his midsize station wagon and that he was going to drop them off before returning home, possibly from New Jersey, police said. But it didn't appear the car, a 2007 Dodge Magnum, had a flat tire when it was discovered in East Harlem near the Wagner Houses, a 22-building complex with about 5,000 residents.

Investigators also were looking to talk to witnesses who told reporters that they saw Locker at a nearby deli buying condoms and bottled water around 3 a.m. Thursday and that they had seen the car there before.

Jeff Locker, who had three children, offered workshops on dealing with stress, frustration and anxiety in the workplace.
Major companies around the country hired him to speak, the site says. He also co-authored a spiritual self-help novel called "Teachings for a New World" and was a radio talk show host, it says.
"Jeff finds balance in his life by being an avid golfer and a devoted, participating father to his two sons and his little princess," the site says.

LEGAL PROBLEMS
But Locker, who lived in North Woodmere, also apparently had serious legal troubles.
A federal bankruptcy court trustee in Florida sued Locker in April, identifying him as one of the investors who profited from a giant Ponzi scheme run by Louis Pearlman, the impresario who created boy bands 'N Sync and the Backstreet Boys.

The trustee demanded that Locker give back at least $121,200 of about $373,000 in bogus profits.

Locker said in a response filed in May that he categorically denied "all aspects" of the suit and had no way of repaying the money.
"I would be forced to declare bankruptcy," he said then. "I am severely in credit card debt and my business is just paying my family's bills."

He added that he was "mortified" to have been accused of knowingly participating in a Ponzi scheme.
"I trust that the court will honor this answer to the complaint based on the facts presented herein so that I can get on with my life."

The case was pending.

So here is a guy who actually might have got some illegal funds with zero knowledge and no way of knowing so, just like many Webio people, and the feds came after him.

Imagine if someone had the potential to find out what was going on? like a business partner
