EJVOrgCom

The grassroots Earl Jones Victims Organizing Committee (EJVOrgCom) consists of the children whose parents are victims in the Earl Jones fraud.

The EJVOrgCom has been relentless in its pursuit of justice and restitution for the mostly elderly victims, raising money for those most in need, suing the government for income tax refunds, and negotiating the rescue of 11 homes from foreclosure.  Their efforts also featured prominently in passing Bill C-59, the Abolition of Early Parole Act.   As a result, Jones is serving a minimum 44 months in prison- not the 22 months under the old law.

In February 2010, Committee member Virginia Nelles, sued the Royal Bank of Canada in a Class Action, alleging RBC was aware Jones was using his personal account as a business "In Trust" account and did nothing to stop the fraud.  A settlement was finally reached in March 2012; HOWEVER, as of December 2013, NO victim has received their settlement cheque.
