Powell Valley Healthcare attorney blasts ‘con man extraordinaire’
Embezzling nearly $1.7 million from hospitals in Powell and Indiana - and other deceptions along the way - netted Paul Cardwell a 10-year federal prison sentence on Monday.
“Whether your intelligence and charismatic personality were corrupted by greed or pride, or some rationalization, it’s really hard for me to tell,” said U.S. District Court Judge Nancy Freudenthal, shortly before giving Cardwell the 121 months in prison requested by federal prosecutors.
Judge Freudenthal called it a troubling scheme that took from hospitals that struggle to provide a vital service to their communities.
“For me, it was the escalation of the fraud in Indiana to Powell that causes me the most concern,” she said towards the end of a two-hour hearing in Cheyenne, adding “Mr. Cardwell perfected it in Indiana to such a degree that Powell Valley was quickly defrauded - much to their, I think, long-lasting detriment.
“And that detriment will be to board members that will be reluctant to agree to serve, staff members that will remain worried about their positions and their roles vis a vis the board, and the leadership by (Bill Patten, Cardwell’s successor as CEO) will in all likelihood continue to be second-guessed by the leadership within the community, which will affect his ability to lead and govern as a CEO,” Freudenthal said.
Cardwell’s prison time on the three felony counts of conspiracy to commit mail and wire fraud, conspiracy to commit money laundering and conspiracy to commit mail fraud will be followed by three years of supervised release and he faces a $1,698,664.77 bill in restitution.
In rejecting a request from Cardwell’s attorney to give a lighter sentence in the range of 63 to 87 months, Freudenthal also noted Cardwell’s flight from prosecution: While free on an unsecured bond in July 2012, Cardwell stole a family member’s passport and fled to Thailand.
He remained at large until last June, when U.S. and Thai authorities caught up to him in Hua Hin, Thailand.
Cardwell, who appeared in standard shackles and an orange prison uniform, apologized for his actions in a statement to the court.
“I was prideful, I was arrogant and I’m a thief,” he said.
Cardwell said he was so self-absorbed and so desperate for cash after suffering losses on Thai real estate that he didn’t realize the harm he was causing to the Powell Valley Hospital community in 2011.
“I simply convinced myself that the money I was stealing through Plake and Associates was due to me because of the work I was doing,” Cardwell said. “It was not true. The money was not mine, it was not earned and I was stealing to get it.”
As for his flight from law enforcement, Cardwell said he had thought he could sneak away and arrange for a young child he’d fathered with a Thai woman to be brought to the United States.
“It just truly didn’t occur to me that I was leaving under anything other than good intentions to bring back my son, although now I realize that was both cowardly and arrogant,” Cardwell said.
Court records say that when Cardwell was arrested in Thailand, he was with a different Thai woman who was identified as his girlfriend. Freudenthal noted he did not have the child brought to the U.S.
Cardwell said Monday that he’s lost everything from his poor decisions: his family, friends, employment, home, respect, freedom and trust.

Paul Cardwell testifies against former cellmate

Burlington man, a ‘sovereign citizen,’ convicted of bank fraud
Paul Cardwell was back in federal court last week - not as a defendant, but as a witness for the prosecution.
Cardwell, who’s currently serving a 10-year prison sentence for defrauding hospitals in Powell and Indiana out of nearly $1.7 million, was called to testify against a Burlington man charged with bank fraud.
Cardwell had shared a cell with Marvin Iverson while their unrelated cases were pending. On July 29, Cardwell shared some of their conversations with the jury hearing Iverson’s case.
Jury members convicted Iverson of the felony fraud count on Wednesday.
Iverson allegedly wrote a series of checks on a closed account between April and September 2012 to try paying off various debts, including a $369,300 mortgage, his Big Horn County property taxes and sales taxes for his business, Marv’s Meat Processing. One of the institutions defrauded was Big Horn Federal Savings Bank, as Iverson tendered bad checks to the bank’s Greybull and Cody branches.
Iverson opened the account in question on April 9, 2012, and closed it 10 days later, but then continued to write checks on the account.
FBI Special Agent Kent Smith said in an affidavit filed with the case that it appeared to be a scheme taught and practiced by people known as “sovereign citizens.” - บันเทิง

Didn't you guys leave the USA because of the drama? Seems to be alot of it in the Philippines.
Ya but who started it ?
Well the drama queens have to go somewhere right 😂
drama queen Mark- every man has a story--- initiated this whole BS. they should leave philippines, these type of expats with fragmented and scanty personslity should not be there living in the philippines, they're ruining thd paradise. DESPICABLE!
Mark started it.
Mark’s the biggest drama queen!
Wilma and I know first hand how you and Jen have a commitment loving marriage. You guys are a great couple. We are glad to call you our friends.
Thank you Greg. We feel the same way about you
Many people seem to have lost the ability to mind their own business. As long as your wife is of legal age, it is nobody's business what age you are. The audacity of some people is just beyond belief.
Even if she was 22, how is that a child bride?
Good point.
Exactly.
Obviously it isn't.
Focus on your lovely wife, lovely life ignore these trolls! The world is a little crazy!
Sounds like a soap opera. 😱.....He got a shitty car and apartment. SO!....Who cares? 🤔🤫🤐....Be humble!.................Give a little back.........help others......don't judge.......enjoy life, its short. .....Like my mother always said GOD BLESS HER SOUL.......If you can't say something nice about a person.....say NOTHING. 🧐
Hi mark an jen from SOUTH CAROLINA LOVE WATCHING YOU KEEP UP GREAT WORK MAN
Thank you 😊 Happy New Year 😊
Mark people are not ther in the head.
And your right it's not any one's bessines
You're the best God bless you and your family. Rock and roll
Thank you for your support
I just watch the video and he did not mention any names. If he is trying to bait anyone, just ignore him. Be REMINDED THAT YOU AND HIM ARE IN A FOREIGN COUNTRY AND THE LAST THING ANY FOREIGNER NEEDS IS FOR A FISTFIGHT TO ERUPT, GO TO JAIL AND BE DEPORTED FROM A NEW COUNTRY YOU LOVE. Fonzi "Don't be a FOOL, stay COOL". Peace Brother!
Agreed....I pretty much made a similar comment but when your emotions get messed with, especially about a loved one, you can lose your head...just ask will Smith 😂
Or give someone a little cash to take care of it for you.. lol
Agreed…
I didn’t hear any names mention either…what’s going on?

In Spain we call this a Telenovela (Soap Opera). Come on guys...."can we just get along".
I got his records from the National Archives yesterday. He is nothing but a pathological liar and lied about his service.
I got the 1st records that I requested about his Naval Service. I will update you once I open them.
I feel like IGNORING these clowns is the best response of all.
You sir arecorrect..
My wife is from Bacolod. Much like Jen. Takes care of her family, two years college, all things you mentioned.
Jen is an Angel!
Thank you 😊
The guy is a piece of work. Good on you for calling him out.
What 2 adults do is their business simple as that.
Agreed 👍
Well, I suppose I’m going to unsubscribe world zoom, because a man should not go around attacking a woman regardless…Thanks for the info 👍
Thank you for watching and for taking the time to comment 😀
Hi Mark, I love your channel and Jen's. I had subscribed to World Zoom. Was apprehensive after finding out he is a grifter, watched enough of the one in question to unsubscribe to his channel. Good luck in the future. I'm coming to Duma next week to live. Maybe after I'm settled I'll pay you a visit.
Thank you for watching ☺️
Please look me up when you get here
markfthornton@yahoo.com
He crossed the line and his character has been revealed.
Thank you for clarifying this. I never understood how he was recently a CEO and retired but then was convicted of embezzlement a decade ago. Made no sense.
I have no tolerance for liars. So is his story about having to pay guards for patients to get access to the hospital during COVID a complete fabrication?
You are on point about Paul. When I saw him I knew he was looking for his next scam.
I understand him not wanting to reveal his criminal past, but he didn't need to make up an incredible story like that
Speaks volumes about someone’s character when they speak poorly about someone’s wife. Low blow in my opinion.
negative! this guy mark initiated the drama.
@@nikkibelmont9199 how so?
I am VERY sorry your wife (and you) have to go through this. The older I get the less I trust.
Have your wife file a complaint with the barangay. He will be in big trouble if he doesn't answer the compaint.
Just watched that nasty video attacking you and your wife. Sadly that guy is one of those people who poisons this beautiful world we live in. He has no conscience. After everything he has done, most people would be embarrassed or regretful, but he is out in the public eye making up lie after lie, and now attacking a respected TH-camr like yourself. The most insidious thing about his video is the way he used a controversial topic to get the simple minded onside, while making repeated personal attacks. You did a great thing exposing him. Well done. His time will come.
Thank you so much for your kind words and support
Yes, it is quite clever how Paul turns people's norms and emotions into a weapon. And some people follow it like a puppy dog.
"These are not the droids you're looking for..." 😂
@newnachalo he's not attacking this guy mark. no mention of names at all. mark the drama queen of dumaguete initiated this whole BS to begin with, maybe to augment his vlog views. it's a shame! to see these elderly expats behaving badly in the philippines. they ruin the paradise! Despicable!
@@nikkibelmont9199 yeah, and Amber Heard wasn't defaming Johnny Depp. She never mentioned his name.
Oops. she got clobbered in the court case.
If you pay attention you will see many references that would convince a reasonable person that yes in fact Mark is being attacked. And the motive is there. Mark took offense to Paul's lies on his interview. So he called him out, and this appears to be the result. You're welcome to live in denial, but I think enough reasonable people have heard the dog whistles and understand what's going on.
Makes us US expats look not so good. I would love to meet him in person!
He's a big guy in good shape. Be careful what you wish for.
@@beefstroganoff426 The guys a wimp with man boobs. H's a jogger, not a fighter.
@@jamesortega8681at least ask him the finer points of the various hospitals first, since he's such an expert😅
@@beefstroganoff426That's a relative term. But to be clear, I don't condone violence.
and....what you gonna do. what are you ghost buster 😂
Well said Mark 👏 don't pay no attention with critics they were just want attention to obtain subscribers.
Might have paid his debt to the prison system, but not society. I think there is a big difference. Ripping off non-profit hospitals. Shame !!! Shame !!!
He should be reported to the local police and government. They need to be warned that such a dangerous criminal is living in your city.
This guy is dangerous... he will be your best friend, he will smile at you and steal you $ out of your pocket at the same time. He is the worst of the scum bags.
Almost like a convicted fellon who squealed on his fellow inmates.
He didn't insult your wife, he insulted you. He actually complimented your wife.
What a scumbag!!! He is going to offend the wrong person one day and will end up getting a cap in his sorry a$$. All the best to you and Jen.
Thank you 😊
I agree with you completely. Like that, and the best thing is to get them out of your life and don’t even talk to him and ignore them. Give him an offer. He can’t refuse to get the hell out
Paul Cardwell, Dump the Bum !
Have unsubscribed from Zoom a few weeks ago. Be careful you dont get dragged down to his level. Your above all of this and give very good and helpful advice.
Thank you for watching and for taking the time to comment 😀
Amen
I dropped him as soon as his lies and more importantly his continuing lies came out. He went from 12k to 10k. I suspect he has bottomed out. Haven't watched any of his vids, the last one being his rebuttal where he continues to lie.
I will now go unsubscribe from WorldZoom.
Thank you.
DONE.
Thank you for watching ☺️
I just saw Mikes Philippine Adventure taking exception to Cardwell’s criticism as well.
He's okay with men buying young prostitutes in Thailand but thinks big age gap marriages in the Philippines is sinful. He's a hypothetic desperate for views
A bunch of drama queens!
...are AMERICANS naieve...
No one can say something against oneselves ....mind his own wealth which is none now he will suffer for his doing hurray on him he can not come back in this wonderful country for 10 year he sat here poor wife she has now
Dont be affected with that kind of comment they just envy you ,i am filipina marry and just widow last year and we are together for 18 yrs ,god bless us
Thank you 😊
Mark. Try to let this go. The scumbag is getting the reaction and attention he wanted. I greatly respect you and the fact that you have spoken out in defense of your lovely wife. Do not lose your inner peace on account of a man that is a lost soul. No integrity, no self respect. Shut him out completely. Live your life as you have and continue to be happy. Karma is a real thing and those who cast stones into a pool of hate, will undoubtedly experience the ripple effect right back to them. Don't allow him to drain your inner peace. He is not worth a second of your time. Someone commented that he should be reported for bad mouthing phillipine women. I have to agree with that. It was also mentioned that this should not be turned into a 'fist fight' of sorts. I also strongly agree with this! Do not jeopardize your peaceful life in this beautiful country for the likes of a scumbag! You are smarter than that. I know you know that, just saying. Hope to someday meet you and have that cup of coffee my friend.
Just keep making your great videos and enjoying your life Mark. We appreciate what you do. Hope to enjoy a coffee with you someday.
God bless you and your beautiful wife.
Jim
Thank you for your support
Good exposé
just ignore him
Hi Mark. I agree with you, sir. I commend you for standing up to him. I left a nice comment for him in the comments of that video. May God bless you and your wife.
Thank you for your kind words
Zoomer’s time in Duma is running out. We don’t need this in a small town where everyone is friendly and neighborly.
Another commenter on Mike's channel said Paul isn't in PHP anymore but back in Indiana at his Mother's house. I was wondering where he was with the curtains in the background and why we haven't seen Bob.
@@RayH- Hilarious! 😂👍
AMERICANS are so CLANISH.
I unsubscribed from World Zoom.
Thank you 😊

Liars like this scum are a dime a dozen. Liars are true snakes. You and your wife are awesome. I hope and pray to meet you both some day. HELLO from Paranaque a suburb of Manila. God has blessed you both and congratulations on your news. AWESOME!

Wow, after watching both videos this reminds me of the Eazy-E and Dr. Dre feud 😂 the gloves are off 👊 😳
thank you very much for making this vlog , i am so glad he has been you tube bustted ,he has been making more and more videos since he has been busted so he can make a few dollar per video by attacking other u tubers . justice will find him. have a nice day.
Thank you for watching and for taking the time to comment 😀
For what it's worth I stumbled upon your channel a few months ago and I thought it was such a great idea to interview people making life changing decisions like moving to the Phillipines and digging into why they made that decision. Whenever someone becomes good or successful at something like you have, they'll be haters that are envious of what you've accomplished. That's my take on it and when I retire in a couple of years I want you to interview me 😃
Thanks you. I would be happy to have you on my show
thank you,, how can a guy like him even get a passport or a visa ! ..hope i run into him on a dark night !
I also unsubscribed from world zoom.
Mark - sorry to hear this. This is something that really concerns me about expats in the PI. First off, he should never have attacked your wife. You are right to defend your loved one.
The part of this story that concerns me deals with the long-term effects with the expats themselves. It's well known that the Philippine people have a very welcoming culture. The problem with some of these expats is that they left the USA primarily because they HAD to. I would love to know how many expats are running from their past and the law. This would be a great topic for one of your future videos. How do you expats who share the PI with us, guard yourselves against people like him?
Thank you for sharing this story! I wish you all the best.
he is not attacking mark and his wife.
P.C. / World Zoom is a joke, thief, and dishonest. You and Jen are an awesome couple. Consider the source.
Thank you 😊
That's called a psychopath.
Where I come from we call this type of video ETHER🔥That means you just destroyed him!
I subscribe to both “Every man”& “EveryWoman” & I applaud Jen for duplicating your genre of video for the other side of gender and not modeling bikinis for viewership. Yes, we all know we sex sells, but thankfully Jen has more modesty than that. As for this malicious troll, I thank you for exposing him. Unfortunately, when you put yourself out there in the public eye there will always be be a troll just around the corner. We should meet sometime at Ground Zero for coffee. Your friend, Tom
Don’t worry about it. You and Jen are a happy couple with great TH-cam channels. I watch both you and Jen’s videos and enjoy them. Just keep enjoying a happy healthy lifestyle with your beautiful wife.
Thank you for watching and for your support
I hope the police in the PH takes a good look and check the back ground even thoroughly...expose this guy even more.
He's already feld back to Indiana.
Thanks for the heads up.👍🏼✌️
Thank you for the update. I hope he gets the boot!
Thank you for watching ☺️
Not fun when people fight back. I feel like the nature of the TH-cam channels in the Philippines has taken a turn for the worse. It’s like a bad version of Jerry springer, and the sad part is I looked forward to watching all you guys. Just sad.
Honor and Respect, Mark and Jen🙏🏼
Thank you 😊
Cardwell has outstanding warrants from every country he's been to. Having a youtube channel is not a good way to keep a low profile. He's a very unconvincing con man that lies worse than a politician. If he maintains his current path I'm sure there's a Filipino haircut in his future.
When I first heard about his stint in prison I knew he was a rat. You don't get a reduction on FED time unless you're snitching. This was a very well laid out rebuttal to his slander. 👍
Thank you 😊. Too bad I had to make this video.
100% correct . Paul Cardwell has a lot to answer for, i did unsubscribe weeks ago, i feel your interview you did with him will help warn a lot of people against con men like Paul Cardwell, nice work Mark.
Thank you for your support
That Paul Cardwell...tsk, tsk, tsk ... A very sad human being. Wouldn't even consider him a man.
Some people can't help do the things they're used to doing. Watch for it and get them kicked out of your world.
Woo Hoo! Don't fuck with the Markster lol:). When I saw Cardwell on Paul's channel I knew something was not right. His Thailand timeline was off. But what actually made me think he was a bullshitter was his teeth. When he smiles you can see he has missing teeth. People who make $250K a year generally don't have missing teeth. I did my homework and discovered all you revealed here. He's an ex-con and a bullshitter. What astonishes me is that despite this, people still like and support him. BTW I alerted Paul and The Pea within hours of Paul's video of Cardwell's lies with links to supporting documents, like his picture on the FBI's most wanted list. Neither of them said anything to their audience. Thank you Mark for your willingness to expose this con man.
sigh, yeah, peeps fear lo$ing; integrity co$t$.....
I'm with you on this one Mark, agree with many comments below (Baiting - poisonous talk) Keep up the honest show Mark,,,,,,
Thank you for watching ☺️
Stay strong, Mark! You're a great guy! 👍
Sorry to hear about this. Maybe his whole intent here is to get a reaction from you that he can use to claim bullying, ect with YT to shut you down...may want to remove this.
It's over. He's fled the Philippines
I've heard about that guy... thanks for the heads up...
I said this to Mike and I think it's worth repeating here , Forget him, he's just another shady foreigner, deceitful and disingenuous. He's good at it and most of his followers haven't found out yet. Keep doing what you do and enjoy the life you've created. Peace
Thank you Patrick 😊

The message: Don’t be naive & fooled by the Paul Cardwells of this world 🌎 Thanks for posting this video. It’s a low act to attack another TH-camr’s spouse.
Thank you 😊
This Duma soap opera is captavating who will have the next Episode😅
Excellent video. I would ignore all those that spread lies and mistruths. They are not worth your time but I do respect that you speak up for your filipina. I believe he should be deported as he made terrible remarks about filipina's and this is a violation of Philippine law. Hopefully that video is shared with the proper authorities. My asawa and I live deep in the province and enjoy being part of an awesome Philippine community. I pick my expat friends very carefully and not many to pick from out in the province anyway. I think the best thing to do is pray for WZ and maybe he will change. God Bless!
Thank you so much for watching and for your support
Thanks Mark.
Sorry to hear about this
Sometimes it amazing how low some people will go.
He will end up living alone and broke.
And back in jail.
Hi Mark. It would be great if the American community could get along with each other in the Philippines because it's really sad hearing about these kind of negative vibes within the community. Hopefully everyone can live in peace at the end of the day.
That can't get along here in the US, so why any different. When I travel to Thailand or the Philippines, the last thing I want to do is get around other Americans....thats why I left. 😃
Exactly.. if I wanted to hang out with other Americans I would live in the States.
you see a lot of these kinds of people here in North America with fragmented and scant y personality. but to see them in the philippines is Despicable! they ruin the paradise😢

Thanks Mark for sharing your honest thoughts for the most recent attacks on you and Jen. I was very disappointed in Pauls most recent video and I have finally given up on this guy. Thanks again.
Greetings from Louisville. I think he's nothing but a joke. I kinda let him know my feelings towards him and his comments. Mark keep up the great work. Hopefully I'll see you in November. I'm actually gonna man up and get on a plane, lol.
I hope so too. I'd like to meet you 😊
In anyones lifetime you are going to run into scumbags. Can't worry about it. Just point out the truth. And remember....... You can not buy Happiness, but you can marry a Filipina, and that is kind of the same thing. You have found happiness.
Many complains about this guy! Why don't file a case and kick him out of the Philippines?
He's already been kicked out. He's back in Indiana living with his mother
Good to hear that this Moron is out of the Philippines, hope he never returns!
My Good friend Mark, The hell with this F...N TROLL. Life has a tendency to pay us back for the things we do. But for me, I too have a troll and like my brother always told me revenge is best served cold. I plan to move back there in Aug. I will let him know you and Jen are my good friends. Your a good man and us friends need to always watch our backs.
Just admired the clarity and calm of the speech on the video.
Thank you 😊
Every man has a story good or bad. A story with conflict, tension and uncomfortable moments makes for great content. You’ve been attacked before, and I’m sure it will happen again. You don’t deserve it, but that’s all part of the business; I guess. Keep up the good work.
Well said. Good details.
