What Happened To The Hollywood Men Accused Of Child Sexual Abuse In 'An Open Secret' Documentary

  1. Marc Collins-Rector

 

According to An Open Secret, Collins-Rector played a huge role in the organization of this Hollywood pedophile ring. He was the creator of an internet company known as DEN, which created original programming exclusively for the internet (kind of like the modern YouTube) and mainly starred child actors. The actors in the documentary described how Collins-Rector would throw extravagant parties at his home for the kids and the older DEN investors. He’d offer the young children alcohol and drugs. One of the victims claimed Collins-Rector would force everyone to enter the hot tub naked after dark and lace the young boys’ drinks.

 

In 2000, one of the victims came forward and filed a suit against Collins-Rector. A New Jersey federal grand jury indicted Collins-Rector on five counts of transporting a minor across state lines with the intent to engage in sexual activity.

 

In 2014, Buzzfeed released a report on Collins-Rector’s whereabouts in the years since his indictment, and they are not pretty. He fled to Spain where he stayed until 2002 when Spanish police arrested him and held him for over a year before sending him back to the United States, where he was eventually convicted, registered as a sex offender, and sentenced to three years of court supervision.

 

According to An Open Secret, Collins-Rector flew to Britain in 2006 for brain surgery and never returned to the U.S. A year later, he applied for a civil union with an 18-year-old boy and in 2011 renounced his U.S. citizenship. Over the years following his indictment and conviction, Collins-Rector attempted to build new business, though none were successful. He managed to lurk under the radar for the most part, but in 2014 Buzzfeed found him alone in his apartment in Belgium.

  1. Brock Pierce

 

You probably remember Pierce best from his role in The Mighty Ducks. Though his IMDB page lists some subsequent acting roles, as a teenager Pierce transitioned to more behind-the-scenes positions when Collins-Rector made him Executive Vice President of DEN when Pierce was only 18 years old.

 

When word of the shady activity at Collins-Rector’s home came out in 1999, Pierce resigned from his position at DEN. Pierce told Buzzfeed in 2014 that he cut all ties with Collins-Rector. “I figured out rather quickly that there was nothing to be accomplished with Marc and instead decided to go off on my own to pursue my own entrepreneurial activities,” he wrote in an email to BuzzFeed. In 2014, he became a Bitcoin Foundation board member, an election that caused at least a dozen resignations due to Pierce’s connection to Collins-Rector and DEN.

Tether probe ruling puts another spotlight on Brock Pierce

An appellate division of the U.S. Supreme Court published an opinion on July 9, 2020, giving the New York State Attorney General approval to further investigate the Tether “stablecoin” and its web of corporate backers. The news generated more bad press for entrepreneur Brock Pierce, a Tether co-founder who announced recently he would launch an independent campaign for President of the United States based on his image as a businessman in the tech industry and as a blockchain advocate in particular.

 

Tether launched in 2014 as the first “stablecoin“, a blockchain digital asset designed to be less volatile in value than existing ones. The initial idea was that each Tether unit (USDT) would be backed by one dollar in existing USD reserves, and would be redeemable for the same. This (in theory) solved two problems: traders would have a more stable asset in which to “park” digital asset value in volatile times, and exchanges could more easily transfer USD value between themselves and customers.

 

The problem with Tether

 

Tether’s exact structure is complicated and its image has long been clouded by claims it isn’t backed by USD at all, and that fresh supplies of USDT are “minted” and sent to exchanges right before sudden BTC price rises. The asset itself (which may also represent EUR or JPY value) exists on multiple blockchain platforms as a native asset or token. Issuer Tether Holdings Limited shares a parent company (Digifinex Inc.) with iFinex, which owns the Bitfinex digital asset exchange. Tether Holdings includes the companies Tether Limited, Tether Operations Limited, and Tether International Limited.

 

New York’s investigation concerns the case James v. iFinex Ltd, which does not accuse anyone of wrongdoing, but seeks more information on the exact nature of Tether’s real asset reserves and its governance structure. USDT has a market cap of around US$9.8 billion, though Tether Limited’s lawyers said in 2019 only 74% of that was in actual U.S. dollar. No official audit has ever been released (despite being promised) and details of exactly what assets back the remaining value have been vague.

 

The published opinion does not accuse Tether or its associated companies of wrongdoing per se, though as respondents to the James v. iFinex Ltd. suit they had attempted to limit the authority of investigators to examine their operations. The appellate court’s statement overrules that attempt.

 

What does this have to do with Brock Pierce?

 

Pierce is not mentioned in the appellate court’s opinion, though he was a Tether co-founder, and is still listed on its website as an advisor. However, in a recent interview with Bloomberg, he said he hadn’t been involved with Tether since 2015 and described it as “one of the most important innovations in currency, but it also seemed like one of the higher risk businesses.”

 

Pierce, a former child actor, is one of the digital asset industry’s most well-known names and faces, as well as one of its most public advocates. His name appears in association with numerous projects, often causing problems for both Pierce and the projects in question.

 

Pierce is the current chairman of the Bitcoin Foundation, where he is described as a “founder, advisor, board member of GoCoin, Tether, ZenBox, Blade Financial, Expresscoin, Noble Markets, BitGo, ChangeTip, BlockStreet, Coin Congress, and Plug and Play.” He was also a co-founder of Block.one, which grew out of Pierce’s company Blockchain Capital and produced the EOS blockchain project and asset.

 

Block.one disassociated itself from Pierce in a “mutual agreement” in March 2018 following a TV segment in which comedian John Oliver skewered the digital asset industry, singling out Pierce in particular. Oliver had referred to a past scandal involving Pierce and asked his audience to Google it.

 

In 2000, then 20-year-old Pierce had faced lawsuits from three former employees of his 1990s tech startup Digital Entertainment Network (DEN). Pierce has publicly denied the allegations made in one of the lawsuits, describing them as “part of an extortion scheme.” He eventually paid US$21,000 to settle one suit, and the remaining two were dropped.
