Robert Arron Minor Owner of Texas International Resources of Dallas, Texas is a liar and has misled, misappropriated, embezzled and/or scammed 15 of his clients out of $1, 500, 000 using the bogus R. A. Knight JV Well and the R.L. minor well, both never completed!

Don Shimmon, Brian Nelson Howe, Sr, and Vickie McFerren, and other minor associates, have all played their part in swindling us!

Robert Minor raised $7, 000, 000 to drill a $2, 500, 000 well that has not been completed! He has now made a $5, 000, 000 cash call to complete the well!
He and his "staff", including his mother and an aunt have targeted the elderly and military veterans for the sole purpose of stealing their money!

Robert is telling everyone he has some "Big Deal" that has been coming for the last 5 years, which will save the project but, in the meantime, send him $5, 000, 000!
What kind of "big deal maker" would buy a well that is currently shut down and has not been completed?

Do not do business with Robert Aaron minor or any of these people! They have stolen $1, 500, 000 from us!

Tompkinsville, Kentucky:

Colt Ledger states that, "Robert Aaron Minor, a self-professed alcoholic, has used his investors' funds to pay for his extended stay in a very expensive California rehab center, his wife's $120, 000 plus wedding rings, their very expensive and lavish Hawaiian wedding, including flying the entire wedding party, and anyone who wanted to attend the wedding, to Hawaii, a financially extravagant Hawaiian honeymoon and their new home in Texas. In addition to his $180, 000 Mercedes AMG, he has spared no expense when spending investor funds! It is estimated that Robert Minor has stolen $3, 500, 000 to over $5, 000, 000 from one project, failed to drill it to specification, allowed it to go bad and now he wants $5, 000, 000 more to cover his incompetence or his escape from U.S. juridiction!"

"His investors have asked Robert Minor for the accounting of the projects, tax information, and prior proof of any ‘commercially viable wells' he has produced, etc., prior to any further investments. He has refused to produce any documents pertaining to how investment funds were utilized and/or any proof of any successful oil and/or gas projects he has been involved in."

"His investors have asked Robert Minor to buy them out, which he had offered, but he reneged."

"Robert Aaron Minor, based on documentation and correspondence sent to his victims, the results he has not produced and in the absence of any rebuttal, can only be considered a fraud, a liar, a thief, a con artist and a piss poor excuse for a Texas oil man and/or human being, period! He is all about talk and excuses with, absolutely, no verifiable results. Robert Aaron Minor is a cornucopia of excuses and miserable failures; all documented! In conversations with various ex-employees and others, Robert Aaron Minor, is considered by his professional peers to be a complete and total drunken liar with zero success, a complete failure and a waste."

"However, I disagree with, at least, some of his peer's assessments. They all refer to him as a ‘drunken pathological liar', but he has been a tremendous success as a "pickpocket"! He has "picked" his victims' pockets of $7, 000, 000 plus!", says Colt Ledger of Colt Ledger & Associates, Inc., the nation's only private investigation firm, specializing in the criminal fraud and money laundering associated with these types of interstate fraudulent investment schemes."

"Robert Aaron Minor has never drilled a ‘commercially viable well', has never been successful at anything relating to the oil and gas industry, except in the area of raising millions of dollars from the elderly, including, military veterans utilizing ‘cold calls' to offer and sale unregistered securities through unlicensed broker/agents, period!"

"Robert Aaron Minor is, apparently, incapable of any vocation that excludes criminal acts! !"

"At this point of impasse, created solely by Minor, it is my legal obligation to provide to the State and Federal authorities the same information we have provided in the past that has eventually led to 34 multiple criminal indictments and 32 guilty pleas. One of the remaining swindlers is facing life in prison so he has opted for a trial by jury and the other is awaiting his opportunity to plead guilty. I strongly believe that all of these Texas based oil and gas con artists should be put in prison for as long as possible and they should be utterly destroyed for intentionally perpetrating a known fraud scheme and targeting our elderly citizens and, more importantly, those that have placed their lives in harm's way to protect America and its citizens."

"These guys high five each other when they swindle a 70 to 80 year old man with dementia or an elderly widow out of their entire savings. Texas International and Robert Minor, intentionally, with, forethought and malice, has allegedly left our grandfathers and grandmothers destitute! But in Minor's case, he allegedly has built an organization, allegedly, aided and abetted by, Don Shimmon, Brian Nelson Howe, Sr, and Vickie McFerren, et al."

"Robert Minor, Don Shimmon, Brian Nelson Howe, Sr, and Vickie McFerren, et al. are, in my opinion, after exposing and documenting their activities, indeed extreme low-life individuals, even when compared to the hundreds or thousands of Texas based criminal enterprises run by oil and gas swindlers, that make their living and supply their families with their lavish lifestyle by, intentionally, scamming and destroying the remaining members of America's "Greatest Generation" and simultaneously preying on our American Heroes, the sons and daughters that protect our country, past and present?"

"Going after each and every one of the individuals named, herein, has been and will continue to be, an extreme pleasure for me, personally, and our firm! They are, obviously, remarkably ignorant/uninformed or they have, intentionally, chosen to disregard the deluge of local, State and Federal Court decisions, past and present, regarding the these types of criminal activity, especially, "targeting" the elderly. We have their alleged criminal activity, irrefutably, documented, primarily, using Robert Aaron's own offering materials and his communication with State and Federal agencies."

"It is extremely important that the general public understand that there is absolutely no reason, to embellish, twist, conjure Robert Minor's and/or his thugs', cold, calculating, alleged "illegal" activity in order to create some ‘fictitious criminal scenarios' to expose or leverage Minor, et.al. First, the authorities with whom we file would never accept or prosecute an obvious fraudulent complaint. Second, Robert Aaron Minor and his thugs have already exposed themselves, through the process of filing State and Federal documents and providing clients with documents and information, regarding their, thus far, undisputed, criminal activities. I am simply gathering those documents and evidence they have already provided to their clients, Texas and several other State and Federal regulatory agencies and producing an interstate criminal fraud and money laundering complaint to spotlight those items and individuals. Robert Aaron Minor and his alleged thugs had already published, offered and sold their alleged interstate securities fraud schemes, before I ever became aware of their existence and/or their identities! Therefore, I am simply using their own documents, their attestation to their ‘alleged' illegal activities, their intentional evasion of State and/or Federal securities and criminal statutues and regulations and the illegal manner in which they offered and sold securities and organized and ran their drilling schemes, as sworn to by their victims and Robert Aaron Minor's own offering documents, against them! I feel extremely confident, based on our past track record of indictments, that this group is going to wish they had been more forth right with their clients/victims!"

If you have had any contact, pro or con, with this organization or its associates, or wish to know more, please contact us at [protected]@coltledger.com

Disclaimer: Everything contained herein is the opinion of Colt Ledger & Associates, Inc. and the victims of Texas International Resources based on, one, the direct relationship of the victims with Texas International Resources, Robert Aaron Minor and his thug associates, two, the documents supplied to the Texas International Resources' victims by Robert Aaron Minor and his thugs, three, the irrefutable, but "alleged" documented criminal fraud and money laundering allegations found in our federal complaints being prepared as this information is being posted, four, the individually prepared sworn statements of the victims, located world-wide and finally, the information previously supplied to law enforcement, which has led to multiple indictments, charges, plea deals and prison. Of course, everyone, herein, is considered innocent until proven otherwise in a legal forum.

I met Aaron Minor a few years ago. I've never met a more talented person with the art of communication and sales, however he used this gift for the wrong purposes. I recently heard that he was 'disposed' of by a Mexican drug cartel, so I am glad to see he is alive and hopefully on the path of repentance and recovery in jail. When Aaron wasn't succumbing to his drug addiction, I saw a decent man who believed in God. Unfortunately, the drugs (and Ponzi scheme) got the best of him.

I also had the opportunity to meet Robert Taccia ('Uncle Bob'). He is BY FAR the most interesting and intriguing person I have ever met. A very intelligent, powerful and imposing figure who has a collection of antiquities and 'gifts' that makes the Smithsonian look like a yard sale. There is certainly more to this man than portrayed.

I along with a couple of investors have decided to file criminal charges against Robert Minor and all of his associates for fraud and embezzlement. We intend to seek possession of both wells including any and all personal property belonging to Robert Minor and Texas International Resources.

I am also an investor that hasn't heard from Texas International since 2012! If your wells are complete and producing, where are my revenue checks? I haven't received any distribution checks OR ANY INFORMATION since 2012 and every call to Mr. Minor has gone to voice mail with no return calls! Please provide status of my investment!

On behalf of Robert A. Minor, to whom it may concern:

The R.A. Knight and R.L. Minor wells were drilled and completed efficiently in a timely manner. We have over 300+ documents including the railroad commission of Texas production reports, completion reports, well logs filed with the state, as well as revenue checks from both wells that have been distributed over the last 5 years. All of these documents are available upon request by any interested parties looking to do business with this company.

The above allegation by Colt Ledger a.k.a H.C. “Blue” Hill is complete slander, and one hundred-percent false to the tune of being issued a cease and desist letter by out attorney firm Friedman & Feiger LLP. Please be informed that Robert Minor has never met or done any type of business with this individual, ever. To prove the character of the person that calls himself Colt Ledger who falsely claims to be an attorney, all one has to do is simply look his name up on RipOffReport.com, this complaint board itself, and even the SEC. These are just a few of the ways that someone can validate the claims that he is a crook who uses false propaganda to scam investors into sending him small sums of money.

There is undeniable proof through further research on the internet that shows not only were these wells drilled and completed, but there have been no complaints through the SEC, FBI, State Securities Board etc. showing any wrong doing on behalf of Robert Minor or Texas International Resources LLC. as a whole. We are also in good standing with the Texas Railroad Commission and our operator number for your due diligence is 846627. Plenty of information is available online. Texas International Resources LLC. would be happy to provide proprietary information to anyone seeking to do business with our company. The company has an accredited A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau for the last decade, a public opinion rating of 4.6 out of 5 stars on social media and have been labeled one the top private oil operators in Texas by several reputable sources.

To contact Robert A. Minor directly you can call his personal cell phone that has remained the same for almost two decades at:

(214) 914 – 3313 or email him at: Rminor1@texasinternationalresources.com

Please look us up @ http://www.texasinternationalresources.com for more documents, photos, videos / media, current projects, references and vendors. Thank you for your time and may God Bless!
