Hey guys if you are wondering what happened with this project I wrote a reply to the original thread on bitcointalk, it goes into much detail explaining what happened with the project and why the documentary was never released;
Before reading this you may wish to catchup on the original archived Bitcoin Talk Forum thread which details much of the evidence for their original proposal:
Tom Mckerrow of Bristol, UK - The Trust Protocol - DASH Treasury Scammer
web.archive.org
There is also a GitHub backup and an Archive of the GitHub.
Originally the idea for a DASH documentary came from Nick Hopton, a larger than life fellow from Bristol mentioned in the following news article;
https://www.dailyecho.co.uk/news/14...r-tracking-down-boomtown-festival-love-freya/
Nick Hopton was an early investor in DASH and proposed the original idea to submit the proposal to the Dash Treasury using his 50 DASH. At that time Nick was undergoing some medical issues and after an operation had to take some time off in recovery. During this period he trusted Tom Mckerrow with the funds for the entire project.
This is when Tom Mckerrow decided to steal the entire project funding and essentially kick nick out of the project, Tom and Liam conspired to do this from day 1, even when buying the equipment they did very childish and mean things like buying the latest GoPro’s for themselves but only buy Nick a second hand one of the last generation, not the latest like they had, they would laugh between themselves in front of me concerning details like this.
While Tom was taking advantage of Nick, Liam was taking advantage of Tom. Liam is no part of this is innocent, in fact, he is the person who eventually out of spite made sure the footage they had filmed for the documentary would never see the light of day, apart from a few videos Tom had personally backed-up.
They did work with nick for a while and I think they paid nick some salary but it was not long until they completely kicked him off the project, and disregarded any footage he had filmed claiming it was “all blurry and out of focus”, here is a photo of Nick when he went to visit Dan Hughes of RadixDLT for the dash documentary:
Nick is sitting on the bench while his friend Thomas is operating the camera.
Once Nick had been kicked off the project there was some dispute about paying him back the original 50 DASH investment which Tom and Liam eventually resentfully paid back to him.
Let me stress how Tom and Liam scammed Nick out of his project and it’s funding.
It was shortly after this that they employed Phillip Wiseman
(personal friend of Liam) and a woman called Rachael Hall, all three of the boys can be pictured here:
Tom on the left, Phillip in the middle, Liam on the right.
There are not many photos of Rachael remaining because Tom fell out with her and he erased any evidence of her from all social media, although originally she was a core part of the team and in many of the photographs they took.
So what happened with Rachael is that from the very beginning she was out to milk tom of as much budget for as very little work as possible and by all means, Liam was not much different. Rachael was having a sexual relationship with Liam Turner behind Tom Mckerrow’s back since the very beginning, and this is while Liam Turner was engaged or married
(something to that effect) with a partner who he also had a child with, a partner and child that came to the documentary office on a few occasions while Rachael was “working” there.
(it is rumored that he also had sexual relations with other women while also traveling for the documentary, one of which I believe his partner found out about, Rachael I think she still does not know)
Tom was infatuated by Rachael and she took advantage of that, she was a drug addict at the time and was using a variety of drugs but also would spend nights with Tom doing cocaine, marijuana etc all on his documentary budget. Probably a majority of that budget was spent on drugs with Rachael. One gram of cocaine was between 80-150 GBP for Tom and he was not the kind of fellow to just have one bag, he would often buy in 5 grams or more.
So eventually Tom fell out with Rachael because I believe as Tom was “running out of budget” thus he had to let her go
(or he found out about Liam and her) she decided to try and get one last payload out of him by threatening him with a lawsuit for indecent behavior and sexual assault in the office. She had basically allowed Tom to engage in this kind of activity with her to manipulate him the whole time and in the end, tried to use it to get more money out of him.
While she worked there she did basically nothing, she actually slowed down the documentary project to protect her interests, tried to leverage more payment, went traveling with them across the USA, etc. I tried to point out how she was delaying tasks to Tom early on to which she got Tom to bark back at me and tell me the operations were nothing to do with me, I had agreed to help tom with the website SEO early on for free and Rachael had not written a single blog entry for their website which was my first and minimum request - to add some unique content with searchable keywords to the site.
The only person who had any real skill was Phillip Wiseman, he was doing the majority of the editing, Tom is essentially a useless idiot and Liam is just a cameraman with very basic editing skills.
So this is how the project went to shit, it was stolen by two greedy scammers from the beginning Tom Mckerrow and Liam Turner, then they employed the parasite Rachael and just pissed the budget up the wall. All while there were actual talented people around them willing to help that they ignored, it’s quite disgraceful actually, the person who managed their accounts and wrote the original proposal for them a friend they called “frog” was paid nothing while manipulative people like Rachael were paid more than 2,000 GBP a month, not including the out-of-hours benefits she swindled out of tom in alcohol and drugs. Any work she had done
(other than act as Liam’s personal escourt) had been purely just basic twitter reposts that were all deleted by tom when they fell out.
When the documentary finally blew-up it was a very similar case to the Tom and Rachael scenario only this time it was between Tom and Liam. Tom was being greedy, he had control of the entire budget this entire time and claimed that the project had run out of funding, everyone including Liam knew this was not true and Liam wanted a “fair cut” I assume, of the funding they had both stolen from Nick. Tom was not going to give this to him, so Liam decided to pretend he had deleted all the footage for the documentary accidentally and that was that.
Tom has been living off the remainder of the funding he had gotten from the documentary since, which is a significant amount of money.
Tom is just a child, when anything goes wrong he just cries down the phone to his mommy and daddy, and when it all went tits up they paid off his 10,000 GBP Barclays business loan for him even though he had the funds to pay it off in Bitcoin the entire time.
You know, they could have achieved so much more, all of the footage they had filmed alone could have been cut up into 5-10 minute shorts and uploaded to a YouTube channel but none of this happened, they just made low-quality social media reposts and such. They did get a lot of brilliant footage they were just too stupid to do anything constructive with it, they had a lot of ego, a lot of narcissism, and truly thought that they knew best.
Tom ended up blinding me in one eye with a 10mw green laser, I’ve lost 30% of the vision in my right eye, that’s why I’ve decided to come out and tell you all how this went down, he’s a useless spoiled little shit who deliberately blinded me in one eye with a laser he knew would cause permanent eye damage. The laser had a warning on it and a key system to activate it, I had also obviously pre-warned him before letting him use the laser.
Don’t deal with this guy he is useless, his Linkedin description in third-person was just a copy of how I had structured mine, he is a fool.
As for Liam Turner
(Oracle Films / Cryptonites YouTube Channel), he’s just a snake really isn’t he, he let Tom be the front-man because he knew it would be Tom who took the eventual fall and not him. Liam didn’t care about any moral duty to provide the DASH documentary, because he was not in the firing line as far as he was concerned. Liam was only interested in extorting as much money and from Tom in whatever means possible, equipment, travel experiences, payment etc, a true degenerate just like Rachael.
And as for the claim that Tom is a pedophile, I think you only need to spend a short amount of time with him to realize that there’s something not quite right about him, many of his jokes do revolve around the abuse of children and he runs many WhatsApp groups that revolve around posting your genitals for some kind of “game” one is called “cock or ball” really to me it just seems like a method of grooming people or desensitizing them, many of toms friends are gay or bisexual, although tom claims to be straight it’s quite obvious he swings both ways, usually because women find him repulsive due to his unwarranted and over-inflated ego, and one of his outer-circle friends was caught with indecent images of children on his hard drive.
I’m just saying, I knew this guy for quite a while and it’s all true, he was always filming me and other people on his phone without our permission, making creepy jokes, talking about going to freemason meetings, doing funny handshakes. The guy is fucked up. Delusional. Like tarot, black magic, witchcraft, just google him it’s no secret he has a Twitter called “The Dark Side of Tom” and plenty of photos on Facebook of him doing strange magic stances.
Liam Turner now runs OracleFilms and edits the videos for the Cryptonites YouTube channel for Alex Fazel from Swissborg, although it's probably really Phillip Wiseman doing the editing behind the scenes. Tom just lives off the remaining funds from the documentary and does drugs in his living room while selling off whatever footage he has left from the documentary for pocket money.
