You being in jail, or not, is NOT "proof" of innocence on your part. Being in jail, or more specifically prison (as I would argue that your crimes are more than likely felonies), is not a binary option with regards to your activities. The simple fact that the overwhelming majority of your backers simple do not want to spend even more money on trying to prosecute you (which I agree is an assumption on my part, a logical assumption, but an assumption nonetheless) doesn't mean you are innocent.

BUT its easy to just say embezzlement or make some other shit up to make yourself fell like you know something.<br /><br />The late TSR collapsed because the president had a big EGO and wanted to keep up with WOTC. At the time WOTC was grossing 100m. and TSR only 40m. She was convinced thats Dragon Dice would be TSRs version of Magic. They LOST millions in the process and eventual sold out to WOTC.<br /><br />While hundreds lost their jobs, Loraine went on to own stock in WOTC and be on the board of directors and made millions more during the buyout to Hasbro and thus rewarded for sinking TSR. <br /><br />Ken whitmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06144091155251014289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724254580047847936.post-36882791222274787672018-01-28T21:49:18.878-05:002018-01-28T21:49:18.878-05:00His then girlfriend/wife owned the hotel, not him....His then girlfriend/wife owned the hotel, not him.
