          I actually didn’t either, I only knew of the original theatre incident, only learned the part about the pictures today.

            I think there was some vendetta things happening to him for some reason. Is he gay or something? I don’t even know but it really sounds like a set up if you look at the sources from his wikipedia page during that time.

              There was apparently some homoerotic subtext in the Netflix special? Not sure.
