Kiefer Sutherland Caught Up In Cattle Scam

"Dude, I've got this GREAT investment for you!" Keifer Sutherland: "What is it?" Other guy: "CATTLE!"

What is wrong with this picture? Who invests in cattle of all things? Well, it looks like Keifer did and he supposedly got scammed out of over $800,000 dollars for his trouble. Apparently Sutherland's advisor told the 24 star that this was a good idea (I wonder if he's fired yet) and that this guy he was investing with would purchase cattle from Mexico and sell them for a profit in the U.S.

Several people join Sutherland in being duped by this guy who took money (at least a mill total) and cattle and now it's all gone. One other guy says he "loaned" the alleged criminal 54 head of cattle and now they're gone too. The suspect, Michael Wayne Carr, faces 12 felony charges, among them multiple counts of grand theft, forgery, embezzlement, obtaining money by false pretenses and falsifying corporate books.

There are so many circle the wagons and brokeback mountain jokes just waiting to be said.
