Serious allegations leveled at Dave "Youngblood" DeHaan and DYE in lawsuit

[vijil]

Swept under the rug and settlement out of court iirc.

I was hoping they'd be forced to sell off the company, or it would all turn out to be false. Either way I could hang on to the gear without getting the icks every time I look at it. But if this is all we get and he's still an owner... it's going in the dumpster and I'll not be buying more.

Of course there's people running most big businesses who do things I really don't like. The HK guys come off as though they're dealing on the side. So on. But sexual crime is another level.

The hk guy comes off as a stoner bro that is gonna be busted for Tax evasion or something similar. Definitely a different type of “shady” character.

For sure.

But to me at least that's in a different category. It's the difference between 5 years and 50 in the clink.

I generally try not to support Kore due to monopolistic business practices, Dye is off the table, so that basically leaves me HK and PE as major PB brands, with a little help from Inception

Would love for that list not to get much shorter.

Definitely cocaine. Hell.... Mr. H in itself isca drug reference

Iirc the kressins *were* recovering from drug problems, but that was when hk was picking up like 10 years ago. Idk what's going on now, but a big part of their business model has always been promoting/throwing music events which is where they were getting large bursts of money from and why they were able to bring so many people into the sport who had no idea about all the different crimes snd allegations of everyone they sponsored (like bilzerain, etc)
