I didn’t know there was an update a couple of days ago.
It’s a bit weird that ltt published their own summary of the independent investigation. If they don’t publish the real report, can’t they just make shit up?
Maybe there’s law for this or something and the report is not just privileged between the firm and their client. Or maybe Madison has access to it since they are involved. 🤷♂️.
I wonder if there will be a response from Madison. Hard to tell. Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence so I have no idea if the claims were true or not. And the “threat” to sue them isn’t that great for Madison. Or anyone who might consider speaking against that company in the future.
Nothing says innocent like threatening with lawsuits…
It’s got big corp, reputation at all costs over doing the right thing vibes. The latter is reflective and willing to improve even if things aren’t bad, but could be better.
People will make their minds up based on how much they trust them. Personally, I don’t.
