If even a KV lawyer said this was bullshit, I'm still pretty solid it actually was. Now, that's as to the actual "trust fund," which appears to have been minuscule. I'm sure he's had financial help from family and I believe he has said as much. It's fairly clear from the fact he mostly represented indigent clients at rates that couldn't support his lifestyle even then that he didn't actually need to make a living from the law.

The fact he's responded coherently to this instead of with angry spluttering also tends to support that. He knows he can't defend the degeneracy, because when he can defend something, he does.

It isn't entirely clear to me how minuscule the trust fund is. It appears to have been minuscule relative to the size of the estate, especially when you consider that the trustee could only spend up to the annual net income earned by the trust. But if the estate was 9 figures, a number of $650,000 or less could also be considered small.

You're doing some good detective work here, but your dates here at the end are borked.

Funimation opened their "investigation" into Vic on January 22nd. He was let go a week later.
Subsequently, he was let go from Rooster Teeth on February 5th.
The GFM started up on February 19th.

Understand, I think there was probably some nepotism in Nick's referral of Vic to Ty, but the timeline simply doesn't support the idea there could have been a quid pro quo thing tied to a real estate purchase concluded in November of 2018. Even if the faggots at Funimation were plotting against Vic in 2018, neither Nick nor Ty could have known about the shitshow that was about to happen.

Basically, if Lawtwitter were to make that claim, they would also have to prove Nick is a psychic, or has a time machine.

That's not what I said. I never said that there was an explicit quid pro quo, and especially didn't say that Nick/Ty knew in 2018 that a GoFundMe was created. Obviously you're right that makes no sense.

I just said that the GoFundMe was created about two months after the purchase of the Robert Lord property, 2.5 months to be precise. "The home was purchased barely 2 months before Nick started the Vic Mignogna GoFundMe with Beard and Harris as the beneficiary" is just a fact.

My point in bringing it up was that if Ty was somehow involved in the purchase of the property, even if his involvement was not related to his service as the trustee (such as by facilitating the creation of the Robert Lord trust) then it is reasonable to assume that Ty's name would be at the front of Nick's mind and he would have an incentive to do a solid for Ty.

The date discrepancy is a good catch here, but the overall idea that Nick is less than transparent here is gaining more ground. I think it is more than likely that he is simply exaggerating his income ability to big-dick on the interwebs. It was an effective tactic and got under the skin of poor anime fans and VA's. His facade, however, was just better than Toye's.

What is more than likely here is that he received the benefit of the trust without receiving actual money. His parents and grandparents probably went in to set him up with the law degree and house after marriage with the stipulation that it was setup in a way that if he fucked it all up, he couldn't just take money and run. They did get married very young and with more and more of the chaotic energy that LR seemed to introduce as a Protestant to a Catholic family, they might have had some doubts besides...

I will not opine on family dynamics that I have no clue about, but it seems that the elder Rekieta clan members are possessed of some wisdom wanted to avoid the spoiled brat pathway for their children--whilst also taking care of housing for their grandkids. Even Nose admitted that his house was in a trust so that neither him or LR could screw the other over in a divorce.

Based on his hair splitting with Keffals and the wall saga, it needs to be said that 'I own my house' is VERY different than 'I have no mortgage'.

How the fuck would this not end in divorce or at least a separation for most couples?

No way for an open relationships to work in my opinion. If you have a regular marriage with all the good and all the bad sides of it and some side "relationships" that only have the fun part - someone will get too emotionally invested in the side stuff, no way around it.

Look at how, 'You don't spend enough time with me! You are always wanting to do [Insert Hobby]!' with inanimate objects, friend groups, or work is weaponised in normal relationships.

Add sex to the mix, shake well, and stand back 30-50 metres to watch the fireworks.

Turns out those with partners too much into inanimate objects are lucky. Animate objects can be much more problematic.

Nick made a statement that i think explains all this shit with lady rackets
someone made a joke superchat about buying time with lady rackets or getting with her.

he said "you couldn't keep lady rackets entertained."

that has me reeling, like is he doing all this to keep her "entertained." it sounds to me like lady rackets is the one with the midlife crisis and nick is the one whos bowing to it. remember she was the one who posted the ass bottle thing first.

 

[Darkholme's Dungeon]

whilst also taking care of housing for their grandkids.

With how Nick and his sister turned out they may have traded the former (not spoiled kids) for the latter (security) for the grandkids. They'll eventually end up with neither.

I am not convinced that the parents are too upset... (just... disappointed)... with Nick and Kristen. I will hold to my position to not opine on family dynamics, but having a religiously ambiguous YTber son and a free-spirit, divorcee daughter into what looks like New Age philosophy is pretty common.

I have seen parents tolerate a lot from their children for the sake of grandchildren, though...

It's a folie a deux of midlife crises. At least they're fighting the paranoia and going the opposite direction of exhibitionism.

Oh, I agree. That's why I said there's probably some nepotism in his selection of Ty. Hell, there might even have been a lot.

It's just that you brought up Lawtwitter having a field day, and in case one of those yokels wanders in (that HAS happened a few times), I want it on the record that there's no way Ty getting the Vic case could be directly tied to the earlier real estate deal as a form of kickback or something. Notably, you omitted in your earlier post that Vic didn't have a cause of action until late January/early February the following year. That's important to note here because Nick couldn't have even been planning the GFM when the real estate happened in November.

Put another way, I don't think Nick was doing anything unethical or illegal in referring Vic to Ty. Even in thanks to the real estate thing. I just think it was a really fucking bad decision. Particularly in hindsight. As history has pretty clearly shown now.

I think that's also a poor choice on Vic's part, he should have asked Ty to recommend an attorney that specializes in defamation and does actual trials. Ty to his own acknowledgment has stated he generally does estate planning and corporate deals, both of those generally the party(s) are willing to work with each other.

There's the lack of experience in that area of law, but to @AnOminous's earlier point, ANY attorney should absolutely know how a goddamned notary public works. Ty didn't just fail epically in terms of defamation law, he failed in terms of basic bitch law and document submission protocol.

As for Vic, he probably just believed whatever Ty told him about his legal abilities. I dunno if that's really on Vic, or what his experience with the legal system was at that point in time.

Remember, there IS a case to be made for Vic going after Ty for malpractice, but that's probably not gonna happen.

I have seen parents tolerate a lot from their children for the sake of grandchildren, though...

That's true, but I've also seen grandparents go to court to get custody of their grandchildren from the biological parents.

Not saying that's gonna happen here, but I'm chuckling at the thought of Nick standing in front of a 70 year old Family Court judge, explaining how liberating it for parents to be fully open about their sexuality to their children, and how the government should go fuck themselves.

You are correct in that we probably shouldn't opine on family dynamics too much. That picture of Nick's father speaks volumes to me though.

Vic had been in a lawsuit (small) before, and a beach cop in MD. I don't think we have to parse his words from the depo as much as Nick, so I believe it.

Almost certainly, he had no idea what he was in for. I imagine that he told Ty to 'take care of it' and wanted to be as far from teh fray as possible-especially in the dark, early days. This (with how nice Ty is generally) reduces the possibility of malpractice suit neat to nil.

That's true, but I've also seen grandparents go to court to get custody of their grandchildren from the biological parents.

I doubt this will be an issue unless shit goes way downhill, but I expect it will be more carrot-stick with money to set the children up in life like they did with Nick and Kayla.

You know it'd go a long way for both his own peace of mind and his brand if he just came out and said he was bullshitting the trad dad act. Hell he'd get respect from some for honesty, and probably some for having kept up the act convincingly enough for so long.

But mainly it'd rid him of the cognitive dissonance he's experiencing that is very clearly fucking with him pretty badly.

This is not bothering him nearly as much as the drama resulting from it is annoying him. He can and will ignore it until (and unless) the consequences of his actions get too big to ignore.

He's a cow, and subject to laughter, but many cows live their own weird fantasy lives without much bad effect.

Counterpoint: He already could've and should've ignored it, but didn't, and still reads his thread.

You misunderstand my point: It is not bothering *him* it is disrupting the *show* since chat interaction is a part of it and he lives on SM. He cannot ignore it as much as he needs to and still gets roped in to it more than he should.

He also totally still reads this thread.

Happy new year prudes and incels I hope we get another juicy story about how Nick and our wife celebrated New Year’s Eve is it back to the gay club for them?

 

[Captain Manning]

I am guessing he had a vastly superior lawyer for that. I know that FOP and other police union lawyers can be rottweilers. If he did, that might have colored his perception on how effective lawyers can be.

Unfortunately for Vic, Ty is a posturing gasbag who wants to try and draw parallels between Vic's case, and the Battle of Thermopylae, or some shit.

It was cute at the time... I won't lie... but now it comes across as gay. I don't think I could ever go back through the archival footage of Ty's 2019 show appearances and not cringe.
