He is already barred from offering vacation packages in New Jersey for 5 years Daryl T. Turner of Cherry Hill, the owner of numerous vacation travel club companies with a long history of complaints in New Jersey, was arrested on Monday by the state Division of Criminal Justice for allegedly stealing more than $75,000 from consumers for vacation packages and travel benefits that were never provided.

Turner, 39 was arrested at his home and was charged with second-degree theft by deception, state Criminal Justice Director Stephen J. Taylor said.

It is alleged that since 2008, Turner, through his travel companies, took payments from numerous consumers and then repeatedly failed to provide the contracted-for travel packages, or refund the money. Turner also allegedly failed to deliver various promotional items promised to consumers in return for their attendance at promotional seminars. It is further alleged that Turner used the corporate logos of airlines, hotels, and car rental companies in promotional materials without those companies' permission.

Under terms of a February agreement with the state Office of the Attorney General and the state Division of Consumer Affairs, Turner is barred from doing business in the state for five years and cannot open or operate any such business in the future without state approval. Under the agreement, Turner is responsible for over $2,188,000 in consumer restitution and $478,000 in civil penalties. He also is required to reimburse the state $419,780.10 for its attorneys' fees and investigative costs.

The vacation travel companies named as defendants in the state's civil lawsuit included Dreamworks Vacation Club, Dreamworks Vacations, Bentley Travel, Modern Destinations Unlimited, Blue Water, Vacation Clubs doing business as La Bonne Vie Travel, Five Points Travel Co., Dream Vacations International Inc., and Away We Go Promotions.

The Division of Consumer Affairs last month filed a six-count complaint in state Superior Court in Mount Holly that charges Turner his wife Robyn B. Bernstein, and their Marlton-based company, Travel Deals, as well as VIP Executives with violating the state Consumer Fraud Act and Advertising Regulations by failing to fulfill promises of complimentary cruises and airfare used to induce attendance at sales presentations, and failing to provide the luxury vacation packages at discounted prices represented during the sales presentations.

Because the charge leveled on Monday is an indictable offense, the allegations must be presented to a state grand jury for potential indictment. Second-degree crimes carry a maximum sentence of 10 years in state prison and a criminal fine of $150,000.

Det. Richard Loufik and Deputy Attorney General Mark Kurzawa coordinated the investigation. Deputy Attorneys General Lorraine K. Rak, Chief of the Consumer Fraud Prosecution Section, and Gina M. Betts represented the Division of Consumer Affairs in the state's lawsuit against Turner. Investigator Murat Botas in the Office of Consumer Protection led the investigation.
