    Desiree was the one who ****ed Tyson. How can an event with two witnesses with opposing views be treated this way unless the decks are stacked.

    Similar to today's cancel culture. No evidence required to defame Johnny Depp, even Pablo Picasso. A lot of what we are told is complete fabrication.

    I haven't read the book. Sounds interesting and hopefully truthful.

    It shows how Tyson was train wreck waiting to happen. There is a chapter called "Sign this" where Gonzalez finds out Tyson can't read but he signs papers before his morning jog.

    Mike Tyson was a really avid reader, in prison he studied a lot of Maoist works.

    This book covers Tyson before prison he very clear he couldn't read he didn't receive his GED until he was in prison but he was clever enough to request a tax lawyer for his trial LOL!

    This is the most idiotic thing people ever believed. That someone would think Vincent Fuller was a tax lawyer shows they have no understanding whatsoever of what happened in Tyson’s case.

    Fuller was literally one of the top, if not the very top, criminal defense lawyers in the country.

    Fuller did defend Don King (successfully) on charges of tax evasion. That’s a criminal trial. A criminal defense attorney doesn’t advise people on tax loopholes and how to shelter money — that’s what a tax lawyer does.

    Fuller represented some other famous clients in criminal proceedings:

    John Hinckley, who shot president Ronald Reagan in an assassination attempt (not guilty by reason of insanity on all 13 counts) — Fuller didn’t do Hinckley’s taxes.

    Jimmy Hoffa — mobbed-up organized crime figure who ran the nation’s largest union (before his mob buddies decided he was a liability and disappeared him).

    Frank Costello — mobster known as the Prime Minister of the Underworld and one of the biggest figures in New York illegal gambling.

    Fuller didn’t prepare tax forms for any of them.

    Okay Saints where are you receipts? Tyson hired a Indiana tax lawyer to defend he may got replaced by someone but initially he hired yet another bloodsucker along for the ride
