The Elusive Ponzi Kinghunt | Portland News

A cold case detective is on the hunt for Leonard Weston Ramey Junior, a master of deception who allegedly ran a massive Ponzi scheme since the 1970s, vanished in 2014, and may still be hiding along the West Coast.

Detective Corey Alexander, obsessed with solving this case, is determined to bring closure to the victims—and justice to a ghost who’s fooled too many.
