My guess is the money is gone, whether spent or moved out of the USA, and Brown will not go back to States to avoid jail time.

In the US the court has power to garnish income from employers, sell your belongings and home or that of your relatives.

UK/Europe much different.

State of Mass allows for far reaching judgment orders.

Never owe money in the US. They'll get you one way or the other.

Pretty sure there could have been a hundred ways for all parties to make a deal and make this go away but it seems like scorched earth was more important.

i dont think so. Brown legged it. Refused to sit down and be honest from the get go. Leslie left no option but to get a legal involved as Brown bailed to Spain.

Brown from poacher, to gamekeeper (with McQ) to now the prey. :D

Aaron likes to say "It's in the hands of the lawyers"....the same lawyers who want to drop him because he does not communicate with them?

he is not the only fraud in cycling. Ask Peiper about his wedding guest who skipped out on his bill, and took an ex trackie from Denmark for a few GBP 000's, and then threatened his life.

Seems with Aaron and this fellow, they are aping the pro dynamic on a meta level.

Brown was scratching by in Canada, then he went to Europe as some sort of cycling journalist, then the cycling journalism thing evaporated, and now he remains in Europe.

Thinking about ways for Brown to support himself and his family abroad, but I can't come up with any reasonable way for him to get money, except . . ..

Please do provide ways we could have gotten the fund back.
He moved it through accounts without telling anyone.
He refused to put it into a neutral account...but yeah there were plenty options :rolleyes:

If you believe Mr. Brown (a big if), Ms. Cohen and Mr. Brown agreed that Mr. Brown would be responsible for the fund. This would have effectively taken the fund out of the Brown v. Cohen lawsuit, but for Mr. Hue's intervention.

Mr. Hue is now going to ask the Court to order Brown to deposit the money with the Court. Brown has no rational reason in the world to fight this and no legitimate objection to doing it.

If Brown wants to object, then Mr. Hue just might request a factual hearing on the matter, where both sides can present evidence--and where Mr. Brown can be cross-examined. If the judge smells a rat, then that kind of a hearing seems possible. It would also mean that Mr. Brown would have to bring his sorry self back to the USA where he would be easily subject to service of process.

My guess is that if Brown doesn't deposit the money with the Court when Mr. Hue asks, then the money is gone. . ..

He has an article on Padraig Harrington tomorrow.

I ma guessing most people believe the money is gone or almost.

What can an USA court do to Brown should he fail to refund or show up at court to explain himself?

That's just an assumption.

It is an assumption based on what Kimmage told us at 'Whistleblowers' and some knowledge of how editorials work.

gooner said:
Walsh wrote some powder puff pieces on Lance. The 7 page write up was nothing.:rolleyes:

At the end of the day, he had little to do with Armstrong. That's fact. Hog tried to put one press conference in Cali over Walsh's whole reporting on it. Unbelievable.

Not gonna answer for hog.

gooner said:
So the ST has never written about Leinders? You happily use the Times piece with motoman as a rod to beat Sky with.
Click to expand...

Never said this. So why accuse me of it. Walsh has written about Leinders. Mas has linked it. it is behind a paywall.

gooner said:
The reason why his article was never linked is because I wanted to prove the point I think Kimmage was wrong that the British media won't touch this story. The links were shown to prove this and would have to be ones separate from the story he wrote himself. Actually the Daily Mail giving him a platform to write adds further credence to it

Arguing for the sake of it?

gooner said:
Interesting you say the ST refused to write his pieces and yet at the same time he had an agent trying to get work for him during the Tour for Sky Sports.
Click to expand...

What is wrong with that? He worked for St FFS, why not work for Sky TV?

gooner said:
There's one or two things I don't agree with Walsh on this but don't think Kimmage has no faults either as there are clear hypocrisies in certain parts of his argument also.
Click to expand...

I never claimed Kimmage to have no faults. Kimmage was very honest about his faults on the Marion Finucane interview he gave back in June.

But it doesn't change that your point is still an assumption.

Responding to hog first which you did in kind to me afterwards.

Click to expand...

Hold on.

He said on the Second Captains interview it was an "in house" thing where he had a piece pulled and here then he wants to work with Sky Sports. If he feels this way, from a principled position you don't offer your services to them.

I notice he never answered it when it got put to him.

This is with regards to Sky. Do you think he has any faults on this issue?

The Marian Finnucane was more about his life and career in general.

That type of thinking is reminiscent of Armstrong's minions. My assumptions, if you so wish, are based on solid facts of the history of the sport.

I am not going to answer for Kimmage, but if i were him being on the Sky sports panel would be an excellent postion to put all the hard questions about Sky out into the public domain. ;)


gooner said:

Click to expand...

No. If and i dont know how he feels, but he may have felt that Sky blew the chance to be a team to stand up and take the clean path. But they didn't and he is going to knock that every chance he gets. That may be a fault to be too focused on Sky, but then again they have played the 'we are clean' hand and won 2 TdFs in a row with unbelievable performances. So they are the target as they are the top dogs.

gooner said:

Click to expand...

Yes, it was, but he also talked about his faults.

I am hoping now he has the Sindo behind him he can get some space to go after Leinders and other Sky stories.

I have moved your posts from the Lienders thread. I'm not sure this is the optimal thread for your discussion, but it is certainly better than the Lienders thread.

If you think there is another thread where your discussion belongs, I'll happily move there.
