Chapters
My former fiance threatened to make scandalous public accusations about me unless I paid her $9 million in one week. Two years later, a judge ordered her to pay me a half a million dollars for the fees I had spent defending my innocence. Two and a half years ago, on a normal Tuesday morning, I was going about my normal routine and I received an email from a lawyer. A 13 page letter from my former fiance. This letter accused me of all sorts of perverse and abusive behavior. As I read through the letter, trying to make sense of reality, it was a state of paralysis I've never experienced before. It has been devastating, it has been costly, it has been stressful, it has been ruinous in so many ways. So if you bear with me, I'll go through the entirety of what has happened over the past two and a half years.
