28. How would you prove he knew it was a lie, a psychic?

How would you prove he knew it was a lie, a psychic? If he devalued the stock, that means she received more stock. If the goal was to have her get as little stock as possible, Rmoney should have said Staples stock would be worth more than it was.

I just read that Staples didn't go public until two years later so Allred saying he profited a few weeks later is rather disingenuous.

This is going to be on the news cycle pushing real things like rmoney's yet to be released tax returns and a hundred other things he's done that are part of the record to the side.
