good day everyone I was born and raised in Detroit growing up there I saw people like me running things this is a courtroom not a circus so we going to calm down I'm sorry what I found there was a passion that I didn't know existed this is the bottom line I'm excited to freef fall into the Limitless possibilities with we the people so many are fearful of the law they think it's something that works against them I think you need to begin to accept responsibility for your mistakes we are the people Cassie Brinkman claims her
boyfriend made big bucks posting pictures of her on a fan site after she wanted to take a break all R sea Woodson says his ex broke their agreement with her sock side hustle court is now in session the honorable Judge Lauren Lake presiding you may be seated good morning your honor good morning thank you Sean good day everyone y this is the case of Brinkman versus Woodson Miss Brinkman you are suing Mr Woodson for $10,000 you say for fraud because he made money using your only fans page is that correct yes and the defendant you
say that you own the rights to the work is that correct that's correct all right I'll start with you miss Brinkman tell the court why you're here so basically I'm suing my ex-boyfriend for fraud because for 2 months he was using my photos all my likeness making all like all this money and didn't give me any of the profit and that wasn't our initial agreement all right so take me back you guys were in a relationship yes how many years about 2 years so two years you were in a relationship yeah and how did this
only fans thing come up well I wanted to be a spicy dancer at first but the agreement was to not do that that so instead of like finding you know a spicy dancer an exotic dancer oh but yeah but you know you wanted to be an exotic dancer yes but you know to respect the relationship we decided you know let's just do this virtually so that I'm not with any customers in person you know and then I even invited him on board to even like you know help me with the account and everything so even
he knows what's going on and it kind of builds some trust and some transparency between us and I make money he makes money vice versa so did you all decide together that you would do an only fans page or you decided I'll do an only fans and asked him if he'd be okay with it we decided together you remember that decision Mr Woodson yes it was uh she texted me asking about the only fans anybody have that text I do so when she text you your response was I wasn't like sure about it and I
told her that we can speak more about it when we got when I got home all right so you just threw it out there like what you think about only fans yeah okay all right and you say did you have time to think about me starting an only fans you say yeah I've been thinking about it and I'm not sure if I'm down with the whole lifestyle and then you said Well we'd be in it together it'd be a great source of income we'd be in this 5050 you say Okay tentative yes but let's chat
when I get home so the yes was tentative at tentative uh so at some point you all started the only fans page yeah who set up the account I did you set it up yes under your name uh it was us I used her name but as far as like uh setting up the uh bank account and all that stuff where the money goes to uh all the bio information I did all of that you added all of that you did the physical setting up but it was the account was in her name because it
was her only fans yes but you did the work yes did the bank account that the funds deposited into was that her account alone or was that a joint account between you and Miss BR it was actually my own account but um I would send her her cut every month it was in her name but the bank account information was yours yes then you would send her her did you go with the 5050 5050 split Yes actually have evidence of that let me see that so you went with the 50/50 split and every month when
y'all get paid you'd send 50% to her yes okay oh and y'all even did a little agreement on a piece of paper we agreed a co-run and you put the name of your account and split it 50/50 you signed it these are your signatures all right and then here are your payments you made to her one month was 2,000 consistently for five months you were in your business yes and on this only fans I'm scared to ask but what were you doing on there selling my feet SE oh pictures of your feet okay all right
no I I've actually read that before people are into feet yeah if you have really nice feet they can sell so you would show your feet M and you guys were collecting money well it seems like you are were making a lot of extra income you didn't have to take your clothes off you just had to take your shoes off so how did this go wrong coming up he didn't like it stopped it for a second the agreement was that if I'm in then he's in but if I'm out he's out but he continued it
so now I read the little paper it doesn't say that and later so you drink the coffee what happens the coffee wasn't very good well okay so I start drinking the coffee and then she starts laughing and she's like your honor I was not laughing if you'll be in the Los Angeles area and want to bring your case to court call 1888 55267 you're watching we the people with judge Lauren Lake we're back with a dispute between Cassie Brinkman and her ex-boyfriend Shan Woodson over profits from a fan site according to him um I had
decided to sell my socks on the side on a separate account not an only fans account just like a separate Etsy Shopify type shop and um using those same customers that I helped build that's how I sold my socks and about 2 months in when I was like finally getting some Revenue I had told him about it and he didn't like it so he broke up with me when it wasn't his business in the first place but he broke up with me and then I had decided to kind of step away for a little bit
take a break from the only fans because if our relationship has issues that means our business going to have issues so I stepped away not necessarily but if you're not mature enough to do both right he didn't like it stopped it for a second the agreement was that if I'm in then he's in but if I'm out he's out like it's 50/50 but he continued it so now I read the little paper it doesn't say that well is not what a 50-50 agreement is though no a 5050 split in profits you specifically said only fans
page and split the profits 50/50 if I agree to step away that means he still steps away too why that wasn't in the agreement it's not in the agreement but that's not you so you can't make money pretending to be me whether it's photos that were taken beforehand or after hand it don't make sense but my point is what if you never posted another photo but the account generated another $100 a month just from new people jumping on then we can I feel like we can still split that profit but he's pretending to be me
though he was selling like my socks that I left at his apartment after we broke up I asked her to come come pick it up she never came back she said I can throw it in the trash so I saw a revenue stream that's to be so I want to understand this because I I I actually from the testimony can understand what both of you all intended did you say hey just understanding we're going to do a joint venture and then if we want to do our own independent things outside of that we're okay did
you have that understanding did you say that expressly yes did she say that expressly Mr Woodson no she didn't so what was your understanding so when I found out she was selling her socks on the Etsy shop I felt betrayed the the sock Venture was a byproduct of the only fans so again my work being used somewhere else and I'm not getting paid for that's like my whole argument was she like putting the socks on on the only fans and showing people take socks off but then selling the socks on the Etsy page were there
any socks on your only fan page before you all broke up and then you start was there any pictures of just feet did she ever say to you hey I really think I want to start an additional business she brought it up briefly um but I I just wasn't trying to so once you found that out you felt betrayed what did you do I just broke I broke it off I I felt kind of bad and I didn't want to be with her anymore you felt betrayed you felt like you went out and made some
money without me I don't like that because you convinced me to do the only fans page I finally agreed I set up everything for you we're doing fine we're doing 50/50 now you want to go make extra money and is it so much that she went to make the extra money or is it that she didn't tell you it's more that she didn't tell me right I told them hey I've been selling socks for about 2 months but you did it for 60 days before you told them yes I was still going to tell them
I was going to not tell them that I was selling socks in the side okay were you going to tell them and were you going to split any portion of those profits with him I had no intention of splitting it all right so you had no intentions of splitting the profit so I'm seeing how much money here there is a graph that shows how much money was made on this only fans November and December you all made $8500 together or was this the socks November December is what he decided to do without me oh so
for November December on the only fans page you made $8500 yes I I logged her out of the the only fans account you changed the password and everything oh you got real real mad yeah are you posting pictures of other people's feet pretending to be her or are you just posting more pictures pictures that you've taken but she just is no longer doesn't have access to the account that's yeah that's correct I'm just using all the pictures I've taken in the past and just basically I've heard cont uh you all agreed to operate in only
fans together you didn't agree how you were going to get out of that if you all fell out that's the problem the thing is Mr Woodson just because you get mad that she starts another venture where you decide she's betrayed you and hasn't included you which I agree it was a little bit Shady how however you can't change the passcode and collect the profits on something you all agreed to split 5050 you did not agree to do the sock business you did not advertise or offshoot this business on the only fans page is something she
started onl on her own and Miss brinkland I hope that what you've made off of these socks right what you've gained is worth what you lost in a relationship because at the end of the day if he decides he doesn't want to be in a relationship with you more that's fine but you cannot take the 50% of the profits that were made and keep them from her so it has been determined by this court judgment for the planning for half of the $8500 that was made on only fans that is $4,250 court is adjourned all
right judge lake has ruled in favor of the plaintiff the defendant owes $4,250 coins together excuse me come back not until I dismiss you hope he makes some money with with those socks follow me out please coming up you had the coffee when you were in Bali that's right when you first drank the coffee what did you feel like I kind of was taken a back a little bit but then I thought well we're in Bali so I'm going to do as the Bal needs do you're watching we the people with judge Lauren Lake Cassandra
Crawford claims the Exotic coffee her friend brewed for their hike made her extremely sick Tasha white says that delicacy is safe to drink even though the beans are digested before roasting good day everyone this is the case of Crawford versus white Miss Crawford you are suing Miss White for $375 for getting sick from coffee you say the defendant made is that correct yes ma'am the defendant Miss White you say that the plan didn't get sick from the coffee that's correct all right I want to start with the plth how did this happen um Miss White
and I used to be co-workers and then we became friends that hiked together and had coffee together and so we've been doing this for a couple of years she got this coffee on Bal and I couldn't go to balet so she was trying to recreate the experience she had hiking we got up really really early and we climbed this really steep mountain and when we got to the top you know we she was talking all about this food she was bringing like lock lock and monkey bread and the how the coffee was so good but
she never told me how the coffee was made but I tried a little bit of everything because she brought it and it was a special occasion you know um what was the special occasion the special occasion is that we were sort of recreating her trip and her spiritual this was an experience that she was recreating for you exactly all right so you drink the coffee what happens the coffee wasn't very good well okay so I start drinking the coffee and then she starts laughing and she's like your honor I was not laughing okay I was
actually Reminiscing on like when I first experienced it I saw it in her face how she was experiencing it and kind of and what is it about this coffee tell me about this coffee I'm not a coffee drinker but what was the big thing about this coffee so the name of this coffee is called copy luck and the way it's produced is these Civic cats in Bali eat the coffee beans and then they poop them out coming up were you aware that she was allergic to cats I was aware that she's allergic to cats but
not coffee that's kind of our Mo you're watching we the people with judge Lauren Lake we're back with the case of Cassandra Crawford who brought her former friend Tasha white to court over distasteful coffee if I can please give you this diagram all right i' like to see that evidence so the cats eat the coffee then they poop it out and through this fermentation process the coffee is made people pay hundreds of dollars for this coffe she think this is good coffee because it's expensive the digestive enzymes inside the cat so then the workers's hand
picked the coffee beans out of the poop and wash dry and roast them that's right your honor and they have a smooth distinctive flavor people really ain't got enough to do at all I I I I don't even understand how why why we need why why do we need the cat to eat the coffee and then poop it out and then pick it out and then clearly people need some more to do but okay and I believe you you had the coffee when you were in Bali that's right when you first drank the coffee coffee
what did you feel like I kind of was taken back a little bit but then I thought well we're in Bali so I'm going to do as the ballan do I wouldn't have traded it for the world after you drank the coffee Miss Crawford what did you feel like immediately I started throwing up as soon as you drank it I was starting to drink the coffee then she started laughing and told me and I also started throwing up at the same time and I got really upset with her because that I've had a lot of
issues before I had to beit with stomach issues and I am also allergic to cats after I started throwing up I was afraid that I was going to have a terrible allergy situation in my stomach and so I had to go to urgent care judge lakes's verdict When We the People returns you're watching we the people with judge Lauren lake so youve paid $150 at a emergency mhm and then your Pharmacy bill was $25 for the drugs and then2 200 for your hiking shirt and your pants yes because what happened I couldn't get the vomit
smell out of it or the stain Miss White were you aware that she was allergic to cats I was aware that she's allergic to cats but not coffee that's kind of our Mo we hike and we drink coffee seeing as though you had the knowledge that Miss Crawford was allergic to cats I do think it is very irresponsible of you to have her drink something that in some way came from cats I don't think you meant any harm but you caused harm it doesn't always have to be intentional judgment for the plth for $375 I
hope your friendship can withstand this and I hope at some point you all will sit down as grown women and just work through this issue instead of having to come to court to resolve things that you could easily have resolved between the two of you court is ajour Judge lake has ruled in favor of the plaintiff the defendant owes $375 who thinks that the food that their friend is serving comes out of a cat's behind who who would ask that and you know I've never eaten anything that came out of cat I would known it
would come to this I would have resolved it a long time [Music] ago [Music] this has been a production of Allan Media Group
