Lenny Dykstra Arrested

Posted on April 16, 2011 by Matthew Stockwell

Lenny Dykstra, the man they used to call "Nails," was arrested on Thursday for allegedly attempting to purchase a motor vehicle through fraudulent means. Details on that transaction are not currently available. However, while in jail, Dykstra was charged by federal authorities with bankruptcy fraud. Dykstra, who has a host of legal and financial problems, filed for bankruptcy in 2009, claiming he has approximately $30 million in debt. Once you file for bankruptcy, you are not permitted to sell assets that could be used to repay creditors. Dykstra allegedly sold sports memorabilia and fixtures from his mansion, and hid and destroyed other assets at an approximate value of $400,000.
