[@---cr8nw]

It depends on the person. He knew Emil was a scumbag. That makes a difference. If the ex-wife had figured out (on her own) that there was a black Scuderia, he could have been charged with receiving stolen property. Or if people started asking questions about where this expensive car came from and he couldn't reach Emil, he could've been charged with theft.

[@jamiecampbell3068]

@@---cr8nw Incorrect. You'd have to report a theft for such. As was stated in the video .. Emil had purchased TWO Scuderias. This was one of those two. Of which, he stashed in said garage. Divorce has a "discovery" process, eventually. That being the case, even then assets aren't reported as stolen. They are distributed accordingly .. eventually .. by a divorce court. Have a great day, & God bless you & yours.
