It’s a showcase of morally corrupt people. Business owners, law enforcement, and apparently the Mormon Church tying it all together. It is absolutely not a shock to anyone already paying attention, but somewhat rare to have it all on video.
Including Reckless Ben. He’s fucked up this case just as much as anyone else has.
Seeing Redditors cry out that THIS is surely the thing that will expose the corruption of US law enforcement when BLM barely moved the needle sure has been something.
last i saw from him, he has high powered lawyers tripping over each other to represent him. could you link a source for that claim? ben is not as reckless as he pretends to be.
There’s still time for him to get representation, but so far he has only entered that he is representing himself.
Apologies for the reddit links in advance.
Edit: My point is that the story has now evolved to include Reckless Ben’s actions, he’s no longer just a journalist uncovering information. He has inserted himself thoroughly.
thanks for the links, i will listen to the audio when i have the chance.
to be fair, he was involved by the Mansell family because they made no headway the legal way. i think it is a bit unfair to assume he is inserting himself to be selfish (i have seen this sentiment several times), he is simply doing what he can to bring attention to the situation, which worked extremely well tbf. i have followed his activism for years, and am even a patreon member. this is the most legal trouble he has found himself in to date, but he is no stranger to being harassed by law enforcement. i have faith that he will lawyer up. he may seem reckless (lol) but i have always seen a method to his madness.
he is also facing felony charges. for doing what the legal system didnt want to do. he had 500k followers before this despite doing this type of activism for years. if the authorities had responded properly to this situation, i doubt he would have gained much of anything or even been involved. sorry but this narrative of “only doing it for the views” is hilarious if you actually knew much about him. he was getting maybe 19k views on his more popular stuff before this with no reason to believe anything would change. this story just happens to be a lightning rod for people waking up to the blatant corruption in our “justice system” and he has thoroughly documented the abuse that otherwise would have been largely unknown.

he is the only reason there are eyes on this case. the son Bryan tried to go the legal route and made no progress until he reached out to Ben
And now Reckless Ben has decided to represent himself in court.
Yes, he helped get eyes on it. No, he’s not helping now.

He’s received millions of views on his videos and a lot of new subscribers. He’s making a lot of money from this.
