Anyone know how to get a hold of Paula Bacon? She was suing Jelly for this Russian guy who gave him like $30,000 cash. I doubt he ever saw a dime.

Anyone can lease a shop, bring their tools, and call themselves a tuner/performance shop. This is the norm.
Invariably there's a cash crunch and customer B's money pays for customer A's build. This works okay for a while until there's no customer C. Eventually there are hiccups and you can only buy so much time with empty promises and the house of cards collapses.
That's basically the gist of nearly every performance shop.
The other thousand pages is just gossip about who got fucked and what the money was squandered on, and neither of those really matter (unless of course you worked there or were a customer)..

But at the end, he started lying to customers to get more deposit money. He claimed to the end he never ripped anyone off, that the only reason he went out is because the credit card company locked his account and funds. Even though he was sued multiple times and lost.
