See below your post. If that was posted first I wouldn't have commented.
If the lawyer was his personal attorney, he could have known because Randy could have confided in him looking for legal advice.
That's my only guess that lets the lawyer potentially off the hook for the knowledge; Eddings or anyone else on the other hand is a different story. But I have no idea if this guy was a personal attorney for Pitchford.
Yeah at least the lawyer might even have had an ethical obligation to keep Pitchford's secrets if he also acted as a personal attorney.
But I do wonder if Eddings is just confirming the bonus story. But that part just seems like Pitchford being Pitchford.
Oh boy.

I at least am not defending him. But it's valid to ask what the evidence is. There isn't a victim claiming it; it's at best second-hand information.The defense force is strong here. compared to similar topics I'm surprised at how many people are defending this guy compared to other scenarios.
You sound like you got a cock in your mouth. Accuse me of bullshit like this and I'd meet you outside.
at this point the accusation is still hearsay, there's no first hand account of the drives existence yetThe defense force is strong here. compared to similar topics I'm surprised at how many people are defending this guy compared to other scenarios.
You sound awfully defensive for someone who supposedly isn't a pedo
You and several others grow the fuck upYou sound awfully defensive for someone who supposedly isn't a pedo

So calling out bullshit is defending him now? You claimed that a rumored USB is evidence. If the USB exists and the legal system can get a hold of it then it would count as evidence. I don't have a bone to pick in this fight except that we let due process carry out.
The attack force is here even stronger. Claiming that an alleged flash drive from 5 years ago that someone had heard contained child porn on it is solid evidence.
If the flash drive is real and has child porn on it then by all means fuck Randy Pitchford for being a piece of shit. But it is ridiculous that I get blasted as being "the defense force" for pointing out that this 'evidence' literally doesn't exist yet.
That episode was indeed shady but it doesn't relate to these allegations.
That is an outrageous thing to say.You sound like a lovely person! Please stay on topic and don't address the trolls. Can we got some mods itt

It sounds like this USB stick isn't itself part of their evidence. Just what they've heard about what was allegedly on it.
they are unrelated though. being shady when it comes to stealing has nothing to do with that, or making it more likely.It relates to the fact the guy is shady af.
It relates to the other accusations in the OP as he has a history of shady practices.
So yes, it does relate.

likely because, just like now, he has no first hand knowledge or proof. Why he's choosing now to come out with it is probably because of the lawsuit Randy put against him.Child porn is sickening but we need more proof, like why did the lawyer hold this to himself till it suited him?
yeah why would you post that cryptic shit in this situation, morons.
I had no idea what I was in for when I clicked this thread. Holy. Shit.
because this is about a legal case and you have to be careful about what you sayyeah why would you post that cryptic shit in this situation, morons.
likely because, just like now, he has no first hand knowledge or proof. Why he's choosing now to come out with it is probably because of the lawsuit Randy put against him.
He might be hoping that doing so will motivate people with first hand proof to come forward and confirm the details. Or, he might be doing it just to hurt Randy's image further.
then don't post or dmbecause this is about a legal case and you have to be careful about what you say
lol seriously
they are unrelated though. being shady when it comes to stealing has nothing to do with that, or making it more likely.
But if there was no USB stick and the whole accusation is false, can't Randy just sue for slander and assassination of character? either the lawyer has strong proof hidden or is playing reckless.
we tweet, therefore we are
I'm sorry but having an history of being a theif and liar is not indictive of being into kidsYes it does, it's indicative of his character. It's highly likely he's up to more mischief as this and the Aliens controversy with the stolen art style paint a very clear history.

according to Jason in the OP, that accusation is hearsay at this point as the lawyer has no first hand knowledge or proof with his caseeither the lawyer has strong proof hidden or is playing reckless.
He could say that, if he was sued for libel. But he'd have to say which ones, and they could be subpoenaed. It would be interesting.The lawyers proof could simply be I heard it from other employees.

Which is partly why cryptic tweets right now from ex-employees are a bit mental.

That's hearsay and not proof tho, don't see how it can hold up in court or defend himself from slander suits.
I don't see where it's accusing him of stealing.This thread is not only about that aspect, and astro is referring to the stealing 12 million dollars accusation.
