LESLIE RUTLEDGE, ATTORNEY GENERAL PLAINTIFF v. CASE NO. _______________ HELDA BERINYUY and DEFENDANTS THIERRY A. EKWELLE COMPLAINT The State of Arkansas, ex rel. Leslie Rutledge, Attorney General (“the State”), for its Complaint against Helda Berinyuy and Thierry A. Ekwelle (“Defendants”), states: I. INTRODUCTION 1. This is a consumer protection action brought to redress and restrain violations of the Arkansas Deceptive Trade Practices Act (“ADTPA”), Ark. Code Ann. § 4-88-101 et seq. 2. Beginning in 2018, Defendants, through various self-published websites, fraudulently created and orchestrated an internet fraud scheme advertising purebred, AKC-registered puppies at discounted prices that deceived and harmed consumers nationwide. Consumers used money transmission services such as Western Union, Walmart MoneyCenter, and Zelle to pay Defendants for French Bulldogs, Shih Tzus, German Shepherds, and other popular breeds of puppies. Even after an arrest and felony conviction related to their scheme, Defendants continued their “puppy scam” enterprise. The Defendants used false and fraudulent promises and documents regarding shipping fees, and more recently, coronavirus exposure, to extract successive payments from consumers. 3. As a result of Defendants’ fraudulent and deceptive acts, consumers received neither puppies nor refunds from Defendants. 4. The State seeks restitution for affected consumers, an injunction, an order imposing civil penalties, and other relief against Defendants. II. PARTIES 5. Plaintiff is the State of Arkansas, ex rel.

    FEDERAL HIGHWAY ADMINISTRATION FINDING OF NO SIGNIFICANT IMPACT UPRR RAILROAD OVERPASS & REALIGN. (MAYFLOWER) (S) F.A.P. NUMBER STP-RHE-0023(44) ARDOT JOB NUMBER 080457 FAULKNER COUNTY, ARKANSAS Upon consideration of the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) approved Environmental Assessment (EA), public comments, and other considerations, the FHWA has determined that the Preferred Alternative for the proposed Union Pacific Railroad (UPRR) Overpass and Realignment (Highway [Hwy.] 89 Improvements) project will have no significant impact on the human environment and hereby issues a Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) pursuant to 23 CFR 771(a). As shown on Figure 1, the Hwy. 89 Improvements project is located in the City of Mayflower, Faulkner County. Interstate 40 (I-40) divides Mayflower into two sections, east and west. Hwy. 89 is the only east-west highway in Mayflower, connecting to and crossing I-40, and connecting the two sections of the city. Hwy. 89 currently has two 11- foot wide travel lanes with 3-foot shoulders east of I-40, with two 10-foot wide travel lanes and variable (up to 2-foot) shoulder widths west of I-40. Hwy. 89 is joined with Hwy. 365 for approximately 1 mile. This north-south section of road through west Mayflower has two 12-foot wide travel lanes and 6-foot wide shoulders. The I-40/Hwy. 89 interchange has single-lane eastbound and westbound entrance and exit ramps. Existing railroad crossings in Mayflower are at-grade; passing trains therefore cause frequent traffic delays. Emergency vehicles responding to incidents west of the railroad are unable to avoid such delays because Mayflower’s fire station, medical clinic, and nearest hospital are all located east of the railroad.
