Art buyers everywhere beware; “The Talented Mr Philbrick” – as The New York Times’s Jacob Bernstein dubbed “vain” and “greedy” Inigo Philbrick in March 2020 – is once again a free man.
Featured in an article by The Daily Mail’s Richard Eden this morning after a certain someone tipped them off, this 35-36-year-old American of age uncertain even (Wikipedia list this swindler as having been born in either 1987 or 1988) was released from prison on the 10th February 2024 according to the Federal Bureau of Prisons website.

Philbrick to Phil-Nicked! Inigo Philbrick Hits The Clink
As “vain” and “greedy” Inigo Philbrick gets deservedly jailed for 7 years, we remind readers that he remains a pretentious pillock whilst his bird-brained ‘baby mama’ Victoria Baker-Harber remains a mouthy moron.
A Carbonara Calamity – Feckless Fergie & Creepy Christian Crooner Cliff Appear on ‘This Morning’
What was Martin Frizell thinking in allowing carbonara munching Sarah, Duchess of York to guest edit and co-host ‘This Morning’ and what was he thinking in pairing her up with the creepy Christian crooner and “fat shamer” Sir Cliff Richard?
In spite of being sentenced to just over 7 years in the clink for his fraudulent crimes, Philbrick’s release comes astonishingly exactly 1 year, 8 months and 18 days since he was sent down on 23rd May 2022. He had previously spent one-and-half years in prison after being captured by the FBI whilst on the run in Port Vila, the capital of the Pacific isle of Vanatu on 11th June 2020.
Devious degenerate Philbrick will now spend two years under conditions of supervised release. He will, however, most likely never repay the £67.8 million ($86 million) that he was ordered to repay in fraud restitution by Southern District of New York judge Sidney H. Stein. Other notable presided trials presided over by “fair-minded… giant of the court” Stein have numbered Senator Bob Menendez and Real Housewives of Salt Lake City ‘star’ Jen Shah.
Victims of this father of two by two different women, mouthy Made in Chelsea menace Victoria Baker-Harber and “Buenos Aires–born art adviser turned perfume maker” Francisca Mancini, included billionaire brothers David and Simon Reuben, art dealer Jay Jopling and son-in-law of Marc and Denise Rich art collector Kenny Schacter.
Philbrick’s ex-McKinsey & Company employee associate Robert Newland was separately sentenced to nearly two years in jail for his part in the crime. He was ordered to pay £53.3 million ($67.5 million) in restitution and forfeited four paintings and a Jean Prouvé desk.
