bmil128 Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 Does anyone have the address? I read the book but this calls for a redo. I thought it was the modern looking house on the north side of the intersection where Memorial splits off from Briar Forest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FilioScotia Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 (edited) I know Subdude.You wouldnt believe what goes on with the rich and elite in Houston.Richard Minns was a real piece of work. Very rich, very good looking, athletic -- his biggest claim to athletic fame was water-skiing completely around the perimeter of Lake Tahoe three times in a row. He made his fortune by founding the Presidents-First Lady Health Spa chain and it was big. He had them just about everywhere. I met him in 1973 at the grand opening of his club in Fort Worth, and I remember him as your typical good looking smiling smooth talker who could charm the cash out of your wallet and your lady-friend into his bedroom. The feds thought they had him when he was arrested on passport violations while passing through Texas back in the 90s, but his lawyer cut a deal that allowed him to plead guilty, pay a fine, and go on his way. They had nothing else to hold him for. He immediately left the country for Ireland, where, I think, he still lives today. Check this out. It's a bit long, but it tells most of the story of Minns and Barbara Piotrowski. http://www.spring.net/yapp-bin/public/read/tv/69 Edited April 6, 2009 by FilioScotia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
