Text: Goetz obtained a $40,000 short-term loan from Hedvig Larson in 1989. When Larson asked for repayment, Goetz persuaded her to leave $20,000 with him to invest on her behalf and gave her a check for $22,287.52. The check was returned by the bank for nonsufficient funds. Goetz had spent all the money and did not invest any money on Larson's behalf. Later, Goetz told Larson that he would pay the debt if Larson would refuse to cooperate with criminal or disciplinary investigations of his actions. The hearing panel found that Goetz was dishonest and deceitful to Larson and that Goetz interfered with the panel's investigation in violation of NDPRLDD 1.2(A)(3), (8).
