Excuse me, but what are the “very serious allegations” brought by Mr. Gorell against the Gucci Gang? I can maybe see a fraud charge against Montano, but what has the Gucci Gang done wrong? Drugs? That would require a police investigations with charges of posession, intent to sell, etc. Otherwise, I dont see anything in Gorell’s blog about criminal activity.

I don’t even understand how this is a legitimate news story. At best, it deserves mention in the gossip/entertainment section. The unverified one-sided rantings of a spurned lover constitutes hard news? Please take a long hard look at your journalistic standards.

Brian is a social climber himself and tried to live the easy, good life while in Manila and Boracay. He was trying really hard to make friends with the Gucci Gang, and hoped to be one of them.

They, of course, rejected him in the end which is why he is so bitter.

I do believe DJ did take his money, though. But why Brian was so stupid as to just blindly send his life savings is his own stupidity.

But really, saving for your whole life and all you have is $70,000? That’s really pathetic. Brian is almost 40 years old.

That’s the problem with these gold diggers from outside. They offer nothing but HIV, but expect to live like a king because they are white and in the Philippines.

I have no sympathy for white opportunist trash like Brian. Good riddance!
