CROOKS IN THE INDUSTRY

In 2005 I was contacted by a man named Ray Pouncey Sr. At the time he told me he represented Bobby Brown, and as time went on, I saw that at least unofficially, he was telling the truth. He was behind at least 35 percent of the projects Bobby had, but mostly it was his brother Tommy who had his back, formally. At the time I was trying to get money to produce my film, LEVI'S GIFTS. Ray knew this and kind of led me to believe he would fund me, until he proposed that I write his life story, whcih I did, the screenplay was titled FATHERLESS. You could say we co-wrote it, because he told me his story and I wrote it in screenplay form. But afterwards, not only did he not pay me, (and I'm making a long story very short) but he took me through so much bullshit and lies!! What happened (I found) was all the proposed deals we had, he had blown EVERYONE!!! with his EGO that disgusted most people AND HIS DISTRUST AND PARANOA towards everyone. In fact as time would teach me, HE WWAS THE ONLY PERSON WHOM PEOPLE NEEDED NOT TO TRUST. One day while taping a trailer for his movie THAT WILL NEVER BE MADE!!, there was a lady that walked and talked with me and a newer friend of Ray's and said, "be careful with this guy he is a snake" Ironically enough, that week, ray introduced me to the lady and it happened to be HIS SISTER!! the one I met a few days before. That was the sign, but being niave in this business, I shrugged it off. By 2007 It was clear that Ray was both a user and a crook (i left out the fact that he tried to copyright my other scripts-and so many other shit but I am making a point) We had a 3 year contract that I was told in 2007 that it was an illegal contract and he knew it! but it didn't matter, not only was he a crook, but he was a weak business man, and was not able to do ANYTHING REGARDLESS. Our contract ended in March of 2009 and I was free of this loud talking fat as crook! And learned a valuable lesson. Get an attorney 1st!!!!!!!!! always. I know another lady who he probably didn't want me to meet who entered into a contract with and she deeply regreted it. Today he so called runs a business (management firm) called PONCINI ENTERTAINMENT. For you artists out ther BEWARE!!!!!!!!!!!
