Scum in the world of photographers...

It started with a shoot for a radio station & ended with the police calling my work, family & friends. Recently I posted a warning to all models on FACEBOOK not to work with this photographer. One model got extremely frisky and claimed it was bullshit & cried to the photographer & got him to send this message:

Ashley requested a shoot for a 97Rock gallery. Ashley was photographed on 4/15/09. Her boyfriend accompanied her to the shoot. The shoot ended at approximately 10 p.m. A shoot was scheduled for the following morning and for the first and only time my camera equipment was left in the studio overnight in preparation for that morning shoot. Ashley, her boyfriend and myself left the studio together. The following morning it was discovered that the studio had been robbed and approximately $35,000 in camera gear had been stolen. The Buffalo police were immediately notified. They requested a list of all persons that had knowledge of the camera gear or that had access to that floor of the building. The list included Ashley and her boyfriend as well as the building landlord and others. The police as part of their investigation questioned several people including Ashley and her boyfriend. The police, solely at their discretion, decided who to question. I filed charges against Ashley and her boyfriend. There were no court proceedings. To my knowledge the police never identified the person(s) responsible for the theft and no arrests were ever made. I had no insurance on the equipment and had to purchase replacement equipment. Upon leaving the studio I had taken the memory cards with me so that I could review the photos and send some to 97Rock, therefore, the memory cards were not at the studio at the time of the theft. I emailed seven photos to Jickster from 97Rock at 12:32 a.m. that night. It wasn't until the next morning the theft was discovered. 97Rock posted these photos. Photos were never sold or otherwise provided by me to any other parties. Ashley, your comments are completely untrue and defamatory. Please remove them at once.

So if this is the truth, Bxxxx, why haven't you even thought about returning my phone calls or apologizing. How about the release that never existed & the statements on the police report stating all my photos were missing? How come when I left a message stating I was coming to your studio to speak with you I got there & the building land lord stated you just left? If you have nothing to hide from you wouldn't keep running from something that happened APRIL 18th 2009! (yeah, you also have the wrong date.)
