I have to agree with about everything posted on this thread. The good, the bad, the ugly.

Hopefully things will work out and Joe will land on his feet and finally calm down. Either way it is a sad event.

Wealthy people are very often the target of bullshit charges, especially when it comes to crimes of violence as they are precursors to lawsuits. Lemme tell ya, there is NOTHING better for a civil lawsuit than to have the state of Florida hand you a criminal conviction first. Talk about a slam dunk.

I posted this just a bit ago on that other board.

In Florida, Aggravated Assault is a threat made with a weapon. Not a gun though as that would have been listed specifically as an enhancement (gun charges in florida carry mandatory sentences). Could have been anything like a pool cue or a bottle, etc. Usually amts to someone holding up a stick and saying something like he will knock them back into the next century. It is a felony but also know that in Florida cops arrest with charges that are reviewed by the asst state attorneys who have to make what is called a filing decision. The charges in fact could be elevated or reduced depending on what the prosecutor thinks of them. Right now, I am sure hired counsel by Joe E is attempting to get that pushed to a 1st MM charge of simple assault.

The battery charge can be anything from some punching to a simple push. It was not a massive beatdown as then it would have been listed as an aggravated battery. Joe E is lucky thats not the charge because in Florida Ag Battery on a +65 yr old carries a mandatory three year stint in the pokey.

My experience has been that money settles these cases quite nicely. An agreement made with the victims and suddenly the prosecutor is getting calls saying, "well now that I think of it, I wasnt really thinking he would hit me with that stick" and "well I pushed him as well and I think I would rather not testify".

The Dealing in Stolen Property is a second degree felony which is classified as a max 15 yr felony. The Ag Assault is also a 2nd degree and the Battery charge is a 3rd degree Felony charge which is a 5 yr charge. The pot charge is a 1 yr max 1st degree Misdemeanor charge. For severity rank on potential sentence the most serious is the ag assault with the DSP charge next and then the battery and lastly the pot charge.

In Florida, upon conviction for a felony, the sentence range is decided by a points system. Charges are assigned points, with additional points added for previous record and other factors such as victim injuries. Unless Joe E has a major record, these charges if they all hold up (unlikely but just for the sake of discussion say they do)score at the range for discretionary state prison with a sentence range of about 18 months. Thats assuming he has no prior record and the victim injury was slight.

I cannot believe how many have jumped on the bandwagon on this thread and bashed Joe E. I dont think a third of the bashers here have cause....

I personally believe in the golden rule...


and Joe E has always treated me with love, respect, kindness and passion. He often called me "The hardest working guy in adult internet"., especially during set ups at tradeshows! Anyone that truly knows Joe knows he has a heart of gold...
He is very passionate about his family and friends.


I have counseled Joe E about what he was doing, where he was going... as a concerned friend..

Yeah... Joe partys....

HELLLLLLLOOOO - WE ALL PARTY !!!!!!!!!!

Joe E took partyin to a different level... and got to where he could not stop... How many rockstars, sportstars, actors, business mogels have we seen this happen too... hmmm?


TONS

Joe E is not alone is his plight. Many have walked down this road.

I will not turn My back on My Friend during his troubles.

fuck all the haters, i agree with that!

JoeE was one of the first people I ever met one on one in this biz, it was internext years ago....we met up with him for the first time on the gaming floor in vegas and he loved my wifes frog backpack, and offered her a $1k chip for it....she debated and then was like, wtf why not!.....he threw the backpack back at her and said keep it all.....
we ended up hanging with him all weekend, and he was just a cool ass mother fucker, nothin but a good guy that took care of the people around him...it may have been for attention, but how many of us don't do shit for attention when we are fucked up.

FREE JoeE!!!!

and on a side note...if the cops walked into my house right now, i would probably have similar charges to what he has, aside from the assualt, but if my neighbor walked into our yard and bitched at me and I pushed him, i would have that charge too....YES, pushing someone can be an assault charge

I think when a person looks for trouble they are going to find it. A person that needs a bodyguard is someone that probably does some agressive things to people.

The path to big money, is a path of greed and ruthlessnes.

[illnet]-Romeo 06-03-2004 07:43 AM

I meet Joe E at one of his house parties back in 99 I think, the Maimi show. Always a nice guy to me even though we had really not done much biz together. Shame to see all these people talking shit about it...

Mike, you definatly hit the nail on the head... I wish I would have said sometihg to him when I saw him a few months back here in Tampa. It was late night at someone in the biz's house in Tampa. I didn't think much of it at the time but before I left he looked at me and said stay clean kid and gave me a kiss on the head... I guess i though he was just fucked up but looking back I kinda wish I said you too...

Anyways... Joe E good luck and we wish you the best!

Webfather 06-03-2004 07:55 AM

Looks like several threads talking about JoeE. Basically most true. The good, the bad, the ugly.

Personally he is very charming and charasmatic. In business he was as ruthless as they come. (Not necessarily a bad thing)

Either way.....he is part of the history of what we all do and many of us have some history with him in many ways.

I hope things work out for him.

Webfather 06-03-2004 08:03 AM

KRL,

This is all your fault. lol

I thought I was posting to the other thread. DUH!

This is Hilarious...
How many of you were actually sending traffic to his program or conducting business with em speaking of "Johnny come fucken lately nobodies"?
I would suppose most of you won't go there but will express all this ass kisser sympathy. Put your traffic where your heart is and see how far that gets you.

This industries hypocracy is in full fucken swing these days with attempts to look good and all but really its just formal posturing.

kmanrox 06-03-2004 10:36 AM

It's not really a big deal. Shit happens to everyone, even Joe. Back in 1996 there was a misunderstanding about some money Joe owed me from one of his site that went defunct. When I saw him at a Ft. Lauderdale party I asked him whatsup. He told his accountant who was by his side to cut me a check the next day. And he did. That's good people in my book. And drugs? Who cares... I've done drugs with about 50% of the bigwigs who've posted in this board.. And when I say bigwigs, I mean multi-millionaires, liquid. You only live life once.

Thats part of the problem...

None of you old school fucks will give me the shot that I have asked for years...

Rest assured you people would not have to carry me out of jail having a drug habit then having to put a paparazzi spin on it in places like this.

I know none of ya will help me anyways...
But I do know the newer generation of webmasters will...

So with a garbled shit comming out my mouth and into your eye...

Peace.

gabe100 06-03-2004 11:03 AM

I agree Big B. The golden rule.

The first thing I did was call him and lend support, as if he needs help from me...

I saw him a month ago, spent 4 days at his pad.

He'll say, no one is your friend, it's all business-but he can count on me being his.

you should ask yourself why. You won't though. You'll just keep pretending your betters are the problem, not you.

chompers 07-22-2005 08:50 PM

I've got some really good crack I need to unload. Anybody have JoeE's number?

Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooo Whhhooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

Persignup Qon 07-22-2005 09:46 PM

JoeE is a good man - he's also a wild motherfucker with a thing for hot ass women, hot cars & a good time. the majority of cats in this biz would kill to be in his shoes or have his personality when he's at the top of his game. NO ONE in this biz has had more charisma & drive than Joe Elkind.

i met joe at the IA2000 (currently known as internext) in las vegas back in '98. i actually was there because of YNOT Rick (i did t-shirts for YNOT network that year). anyhow, JoeE was running Traffic Cash, met him @ a dinner @ Rio with a few industry big wigs & we hit it off. he hired me to replace JD (his traffic guy at the time) because he liked me & i was just a kid trying to get in the biz running my own little sites. i let him know i wasn't a traffic guru but he didn't care... i think he just hired me cuz he liked me & wanted to give me a hand.

anyhow... he got me setup with an apartment in ft lauderdale & we worked daily out of that little "shitty hole of an office in a strip mall" on the beach. Joe would take us out for lunch & try help us to relax even offering us a joint on some occasions :1orglaugh - it was fun but after a while, JB (the more business minded, biz stickler in the partnership) saw i was not that useful & fired my ass. i was mad but looking back i don't blame him... he's a shrewed, cunning business man. i respect him but i do think he did JoeE in the whole breakup... Traffic Cash wouldn't be SHIT without JoeE & IMO he just deserved better.

anyhow... i'm sad to see his going thru some issues but knowing JoeE & the things he's been thru in life, this is just a bump in the road. JoeE is my nigga & will always be. keep ya head up man... hopefully i'll be lucky enough to sit in your presence again at another dinner. :thumbsup

RRRED 07-23-2005 11:13 PM

Awwwww don't pick on JoeE... He was one of the first people in the biz who was nice to me AND my ex husband when we were going to our first conventions. He's always been so charming. We all have periods in our life when we lose a bit of control. Give him a break! :helpme

Seriously though I've seen people start living life like a rockstar when the money comes rolling in but 9 times out of 10 they lose it all! Watch and learn.

Yes I remember last year he was going for the straight and narrow. When we can learn from our issues and try to fix ourselves, that can sometimes be the ultimate definition of "success"
