I just can't see situations like these as coincidences, especially when that person has a reputation in Finland for being a shady businessman at best.
I'm a simple guy, and if something looks like sh*t and smells like sh*t, then I'll simply conclude that it must be sh*t. Rpietila carries himself like a sterotypical con-man with all his uncontrollable vanity and "trailer trash rich" mentality, and things around him tend to get screwed up. So my conclusion is simply to stay away from things that he is strongly involved in.
