"The probe began in late 2001, when the Yolo County District Attorney's Office looked into the fraudulent registration of a car owned by Terry Brown, a former Woodland police officer, court documents said...........He valued the completed vehicle at $51,358. But Brown paid Weaver $200 to title the car as a 1965 Ford Cobra convertible worth $13,500....."

The whole investigation was started because of this guy's (Terry Brown) fraud. He didn't even try to make the stated value believable. There is breaking the law, and then there is breaking the law in such a stupid manner as to have a red flag raised and ruin the party for everyone. He was foolish, and now lots of CA cobra owners are getting hassled because of it.
