As his guests pass cash in his direction, a starving artist reaches across the table for some crumbs. This story&rsquo;s central allegation is that the man in the middle captures value created by others, allegedly withholds it and the original creators percentages, never seeing the light of day. At the very least, based on the evidence and claims shared online, one is left to wonder whether the psychiatric euthanasia was a fa\u00e7ade.
