WOW - 25 pages.    Anyone heard anything on what agency is involved in regards to investigating this(State or Feds)? Will there or has there been an Indictment or arrest yet?

so perhaps the 2 biggest stars in our sport publicly fire their agent and accuse him of embezzlement, coupled w/ his agency firing him from the agency. This is all announced on IG knowing damn well it was going to start a shit storm of noise. So we come to the actual races and they just say "Meh, no comment"? Do I follow?? And not one other media member asked them anything?

...but we're a real and serious sport....ready for the mainstream "growing".

Some of you guys act like this public press release (if that’s what you want to call it) was the actual firing. Most likely he had gotten fired a couple days later and then finally broke the news once it all got ended officially. There’s zero chance the agency and the Lawrence fired a guy through a press release and not directly. Mirtl acting blindsided is him doing exactly that, acting. Most likely wanted to keep it quiet and they had other plans. 

The statement said they fired him that day at 9am.  (Though Mirtl claims he didn't know until he saw the post online.)

This. Keep in mind, neither the Lawrence’s nor Wasserman posted the news. They sent press releases and the media posted it. Seems like a minor difference, but it’s not. Press releases to established media is the legitimate approach. Mirtl responding directly on IG (without spellcheck, at that) was not the professional way to rebut.

You’re lost on how the world works, legally.

There's going to be a whole lot of stuff coming out....

People love to say this then nothing ever happens 

Yep, RIP Jeff Alessi but he would post that kind of stuff almost daily for a while and nothing.

Claiming he has no idea where the claims are coming from is not helping his cause. It's not believable at all. Even if the claims are way off he should at least be smart enough to know where the confusion is coming from. Surely he was asked something in the past two weeks to give indication of where the questions are being asked. He's full of shit and too arrogant to know when to shut up.

If what he said on Pulp is correct, WMG is going to owe him a pile of cash. If that happens, we will never know though.  I have no opinion one way or the other, but don't talk shit in this thread until you listen the interview.  At least he is sharing his side instead of broad sweeping IG posts like the Lawrences and WMG.

WMG has over 3000 employees. Their HR department alone is probably 100 people. I seriously doubt they made a mistake here.

You're way too hung up on the "public" part. Whether you like, or agree with it or not, there's nothing illegal about the Lawrences or Wasserman putting out press releases to a member of  the moto media saying Myrtl doesn't work for either of them any more.

I get the feeling WMG is a pretty fly by night operation and probably don’t have any proof so they will be open to litigation.

Are you being sarcastic, or do you actually think one of the largest sport & entertainment agencies in the country is "fly by night"?

They didn't say he "doesn't work for them anymore"  They said he was fired for theft.  Not the same sir.  Hope they were right for their sake, but also hope we find how this ends and we likely will not

I thought it was obviously sarcasm. Companies like that don’t make emotional decisions or anything half ass.

No, they did not say theft…… but let me guess, details do not matter?

Are you that dense??  What does misappropriation of funds for his benefit mean??  Let me help you.  

Embezzlement is the fraudulent taking of personal property by someone to whom it was entrusted

He also likes to ignore the "two weeks" part. There is no way in hell a company like WMG, with all their lawyers, goes public without real proof. The Lawrence release is directly tied to the WMG release.

For some reason a few people in this thread just can't fathom how an entity with $1B in revenue doesn't just release emotional statements without HARD evidence lol.

Agree. If the evidence they found wasn’t pretty damning I feel like they would have suspended him or brushed it under the rug but to fire him the way they did seems like they had to have him dead to rights. Even if your totally justified, if it’s not a slam dunk it might still cost you a bunch of money in court.
