    You’re absolutely right. However, it was not my intention to imply that Greg actually knew about the alleged fraud. Rather, I meant that because it seems Greg got fucked by Jirard in the money department, he would be more likely to suspect it was happening to others. Because of that, I wondered if it played a part in his decision making. The detail about the Open Hand photos adds more of a conspiratorial twist to this message than I meant. I was surprised that Open Hand was old enough to be around the same time as Greg, and only included that to point out this fact. Upon rereading it, I do realize that my comment takes a very matter-of-fact tone, and I appreciate your measured response counteracting that. I agree that it’s totally pointless to speculate without an official testimony and with an obvious answer already present, and will try to refrain from doing so in the future.

      You are good mate, this stuff just always happens where it gets a bit annoying. We see this in the drama cycle where news comes how X person is an awful person or did something wrong. We know about Y events that happened in the past so people try to draw Y events around this new bit of news but we don’t really live in a fictional world where all these plotlines/events all culminate into something satisfying. Life is a rather complex thing and it makes it feel so small when it all culminates into every event we the public know about a public figure have to fit into each other like a complete puzzle when huge portions of a public figure’s life is typically shrouded in mystery.
