Democrat Activist Caught in Giant Hoax – Then Quickly Gets Jaw-Dropping Justice

They say nobody gives something for nothing. But that must be doubly true for so-called Democrat activists. Progressive figures in communities across the country claim to be fighting for the “little guy.” But all too often, they are exposed as con artists who bilk hard-working Americans out of their money.

One leftist activist had claimed to receive 21 military medals, fought in Vietnam and Iraq, and even received multiple Purple Hearts and a Silver Star.

He even coaxes over $1.3 million from police and first responders for the Catholic Alumni PAC. But when people started asking questions about his history, this man went MIA. His supposed nephew claimed he died in January. Now, the ugly truth is coming out.

From The Post Millennial:
A San Francisco-based Democrat activist faked his own death and fled to Mexico after claiming to have raised $1.3 million from first responders.

Richard Parina, 78, also lied about serving in the US military, claiming to be a retired Army brigadier general who received three Purple Hearts…

Parina confirmed to the publication that he is, in fact, alive and blamed his “adopted nephew” for spreading rumors about his death, saying “If he just kept his big mouth shut, nobody would have paid any attention.”

Woah. A man named Richard Parina was a Democrat activist in San Francisco. He had claimed to be a veteran of Vietnam and Iraq, retiring as an Army brigadier general. He had raised over one million dollars for a Catholic PAC, getting donations from retired police and firefighters.

But it seems that the money—if it was real at all—may never have reached its intended destination. He said he had “no idea” what happened to the funds. But he did admit to taking money he raised for a judge candidate, to purchase medication for himself.

In January of this year, he disappeared, deleting his social media accounts. A man named Richard Francis posted on X that he died. But it seems that post raised too much attention, as people started talking and offering support to the family.

It soon came to light that Parina was not dead, but living in Mexico. We do not know if he in fact staged his death. But he did admit to “stealing valor” by pretending to be a veteran. It is against federal law to say you are a veteran when you are not. It is possible people were getting suspicious after Parina claimed to have received so many medals. Did he flee to Mexico to avoid the consequences of his lies?

Perhaps. But this is yet another reminder to Americans not to trust someone, just because they tell you to.

Key Takeaways:

  • A Democrat activist from San Francisco admitted to stealing valor.
  • People are accusing Richard Parina of faking his own death and fleeing to Mexico.
  • He might have stolen $1.3 million he raised from retired police and firefighters.
