Guilty Til' Proven Innocent is my life story-a rollercoaster ride of ambition, success, and hard lessons. From building homes like my dad to running a legal K2 business that made me millions, I thought I had it all figured out. I expanded into new ventures-owning nightclubs, a recording studio, a record label, a limo service, and concert promotions. I lived the good life, meeting celebrities and enjoying the fruits of my hard work.

Then, everything crashed. The DEA accused me of having a banned chemical in my products-something I didn't even know about. They didn't care. They came for me anyway, using lies and scare tactics to force a plea deal. I lost two and a half million dollars and spent two and a half years in a federal prison camp.

While locked away, I met some of the most brilliant-and unexpected-people you could imagine. Doctors, lawyers, CEOs, and even an 80-year-old priest shared their stories, and I shared mine. This book pulls back the curtain on what happens inside the system, how it destroys lives, and how good people get caught up in bad situations.

This isn't just my story-it's the story of so many others. It's raw, it's real, and I hope it makes you think about what justice truly means.
