Golfing Con Man Arrested After His Mother's Funeral
/You may recall the viral story from a year ago when an aspiring mini-tour pro was supposedly dropped by his sponsor because of a bible verse on his bag and professed love for talk show host Glenn Beck.
The story was eaten up by The Blaze, an online publication devoted to socially conservative causes which, amazingly, still has the story posted even after Ryan Ballengee exposed Cochran as a serial con man who had made his way through golf in multiple states from Florida to Nebraska, including a stint at The Prairie Club.
Ballengee reports that nearly a year after the above mentioned incidents, Cochran was arrested after his mother's graveside service in Michigan.
