RECKLESS BEN: Here is a Slack conversation between a BAM person nicknamed "fran_dev_expansion" and a former BAM franchisee (who was breaking up with BAM in 2023). Hand wringing by the BAM guy, and an odd reference to "feet". Remind you of anyone?
More Bricks & Minifigs vs Reckless Ben insight.
Legal attorney @legalbytesmedia released a great breakdown today detailing why Bricks & Minifigs' CEO Ammon McNeff made a complete disaster with his defamation claims.
Utah's anti-SLAPP law, originating from the Uniform Public Expression Protection Act, is a unique legal strategy that allows defendants to throw out retaliatory lawsuits meant to silence free speech on matters of public concern.
This helps Reckless Ben's situation because if the judge agrees that his investigative videos expose a matter of public interest, the entire defamation case freezes, and the corporation can be forced to pay every dime of his legal fees.
The 34 minute deep dive exposes how a major mistake by the corporate CEO, specifically going on a media PR tour and admitting on camera that Bryan Mansell was indeed "significantly underpaid," accidentally handed Ben’s attorney (finally) the exact admission needed to prove the videos were substantially true.
Josh Johnson sacrificed BRICK BY BRICK by BAM Corporate Offices!
Looks like Bricks and Minifigs just fired Josh Johnson in an attempt to save face and save the doomed company.
They've also offered to make a deal with Brian Mansell.
But why is Ammon McNeff still employed?
Hey @LegalEagle
Can the home owner activity listening and watch cameras in an @Airbnb when guests are there? It sounded like police chief of @afpolice said the home owner called the police and then they secured a search warrant for #RecklessBen

Did I just hear police chief of @afpolice say that an @Airbnb home owner activity listening and watching #RecklessBen staying at their #AirBnB … I’m guessing privacy is not a thing… No more #AirBnB for me
