One thing I didn't realize is that he already did a stint in the slammer for fraud back in the early 90s, long before he got into either racing or the payday loan business.

Yeah, watching his daughter have to deal with the cognitive dissonance from all of that is pretty sad. (my dad who loves me and is the person who provides for me and protects me is a bad person or has done bad things - is he a bad person, etc) She will probably find therapy helpful in processing all of this.
Tucker (and his lawyer) definitely come off as pretty unsympathetic characters, as does the one tribe chief I think. You see tucker being upset about someone coming to take his two race cars from inside of his grand mansion, while alternatrively hearing from the people unfortunate enough to have used his 'service.'
