I ask because I recently had the displeasure of his acquaintance. The man completely flaked on a shoot in LV and when I posted a poor review on PSP he called me from Washington and made death threats to me.
Rather hilarious listening to him rant. He sees absolutely nothing wrong with his wasting of an entire production day.
(see my blog for details:

Long story short, I record and save all phone calls and emails for business reasons.
United States Code
Title 18 – Crimes and Criminal Procedures
Part 1 – Crimes
Chapter 41 – Extortion and Threats
Section 875. Interstate communications
(c) Whoever transmits in interstate or foreign commerce any communication containing any threat to kidnap any person or any threat to injure the person of another, shall be fined under this title not more that $250,000 or imprisoned not more than five years, or both.
(Pretty cool, look it up yourself)
I made a report to the police and handed over a copy of the phone call. I know they won't do anything about it, but at least it is on record. Idiot.
Tomorrow I'm filing for a restraining order. If he comes within 500 feet of me no matter where I am, arrested, no questions asked. $25, a copy of the phone call, and two hours of my time is all it takes. Then, if he ever lays a hand on me, the felony violation will be applied.
It will be fun to see how this wannabe reacts.
I'm just curious if anyone else has had any dealings with him.
