Masterminds of MasterVend Plead Guilty

According to this press release from the Department of Justice Southern District of Florida:

"R. Alexander Acosta, United States Attorney for the Southern District of Florida, and Henry Gutierrez, Inspector in Charge, Miami Division, United States Postal Inspection Service, announce that defendants Evans Eric Baros, Jr. and Dana Kerri Elmowitz Pearl pled guilty today to one count of an Indictment pending against them, charging conspiracy to commit wire fraud. Defendants Baros and Pearl are scheduled to be sentenced on April 6, 2007 at 1:30 pm, before U.S. District Court Judge Ursula Ungaro-Benages, in Miami, Florida."

You will recall that MasterVend was a knock off business opportunity fraud. I wonder if the original criminals will sue the MasterVend criminals for breach of license? What happened to honour among theives?
