    Why spend money for trials? He is rich, so he will not be guilty of anything. /s

    “Hi ChatGPT, Im being accused of despicable acts by my own flesh and blood. Please draft a foolproof legal defense. Make no mistakes.”

    Super old news.

    Also his sister seems like a straight up psycho – I remember first seeing this allegation years ago and it was co-linked with her social of some kind (insta, youtube, onlyfans – I don’t remember which)

    Lots of reasons to hate this guy but this probably isn’t one of them. His sister is very unwell and this is an old story.

    I don’t think I will ever trust relatives suing rich people. It’s almost always rooted in jealousy and wanting a piece of the pie.

    “Of course our family member that financially provides for us is innocent. It’s that one family member that has nothing to offer us that you really have to watch out for.”

  7. Is there a high profile person in tech that people generally *like* at this point who hasn’t been accused of something monstrous?

  8. I hate the guy, but come on, this article is over a year old. Where are the updates on this?

    This happens a lot in North American, Caucasian households. As a kid, I was molested by two friend’s brothers who were both 5-7 years older than me. As an adult I have many friends with similar situations… always white, older brothers of friends.

    Downvote all you want but it doesn’t change the experience.

  10. Hold on. Isn’t this the old news where it was already disproven and the SIL had a mental episode? The family did say something of the sort as far as I remember.

  11. The woman has psychological issues. However, redditors are only happy to take these accusations at face value.

  12. Well, since this guy spent the last few years painting himself as an absolute dipshit that have zero respect for humanity as a whole, consider laws a nuisance that should not apply to him or his business, and see people as a commodity, I’m shocked he acted like this.

  13. I don’t doubt her for a second.

    Despicable shell of a person willingly turned into a mouthpiece of exploitation
