People always get amped up for internet lynchings and often take these things too far, impacting real life jobs, family, etc. But clearly thats secondary to some e-justice! Why leave things to the real police when you can go vigilante online.
Ducay, as one of the few others that was holding out hope that this was all just ignorance and stupidity as opposed to evil and malfeasance, rest assured that this is no witch hunt.

If you read all the rantings at the steroid forum, you will see what kind of person he is. You will also see that his people there turned on him for taking advantage of members generosity as well.

And we even have RTA here now to directly refute the narrative that we were given. For me thats important because I could somewhat rationalize the sloppy attempts at fundraising because it all still hinged on a guy that needed help asking for help. But when you learn that almost all of it was a total lie, it erodes that narrative and you are left with a pretty blatant cash grab.

I spoke with RTA on the phone earlier this evening and was the one that asked her to come on here and help put all uncertainty aside so that we can confidently say that what we have done is just. And while it may seem like vigilante internet justice, I think there is real value in making sure the next time he tries this, some quick googling will reveal the truth.
