Outrageous! Our favorite band's CFO is now accused of 33 counts of theft. Check out the article:
"A former executive with Pearl Jam has been charged with 33 counts of theft following allegations that he bilked Seattle’s biggest band for years.
Filing felony charges earlier this month, King County prosecutors claim Rickey Charles Goodrich abused his position as chief financial officer at Pearl Jam’s management company, Curtis Inc., to steal $380,000 from the band from 2006 until he was fired in September 2010.
Seattle Police claim Goodrich’s thefts cost the band $566,000, including investigative expenses. Goodrich, a 54-year-old resident of Novato, Calif., is also alleged to have admitted to owing the band hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Contacted by phone Tuesday morning, Goodrich declined to comment on the allegations. He is expected to appear June 28 in King County Superior Court at Seattle to enter an initial plea." - Source
