Okay, so, about this guy, John Rallo. Man, what a rollercoaster ride it’s been following his story. I started digging into it a while back, and boy, was I in for a surprise.
First off, I stumbled upon this clip of him on the Joe Rogan Experience. He was talking about some “exciting news” from his company, Ground Control. I thought, “Alright, let’s see what this is all about.” I started doing some more digging, trying to piece things together. That’s when things started to get, well, a bit messy.
I found out that this John Rallo fellow, he’s been accused of some pretty serious stuff. Like, we’re talking about allegedly defrauding six investors out of over a million bucks. And get this, five of them are from the St. Louis area. My jaw dropped. I was like, “What the heck is going on here?”
More Deep Searching
- Then, I read somewhere that he’s apparently dealing with cancer, and there was some concern about him being at risk for Covid-19 in a federal prison in Marion. It’s a whole health situation on top of everything else.
- Things got even more tangled when I learned about his connection to some corruption scandal involving the former St. Louis County Executive, Steve Stenger. I mean, it’s like something out of a movie.
- And just when I thought I had a handle on things, I saw that he pleaded guilty to three counts of bribery. Sentencing was set for October 15th. I was just shaking my head at this point, like, “How did this all happen?”
- And finally I found out that he was originally indicted for his role in Stenger’s whole pay-to-play scheme and now he’s being accused of this massive fraud.
I was initially just curious about his appearance on Joe Rogan, but then I fell down this rabbit hole of legal troubles, health issues, and some serious accusations. I kept asking myself, “What’s the real story here?” It’s been a wild ride, to say the least. I’m still trying to wrap my head around the whole thing. It’s just one of those situations where the more you dig, the more complicated it gets.
So yeah, that’s where I’m at with this John Rallo guy. It’s a far cry from what I expected when I first started looking into it. I guess it just goes to show, you never really know what you’re gonna find when you start digging around. I’ll definitely be keeping an eye on how this all unfolds, but honestly, I don’t know if I’ll ever figure out the whole truth. It’s a mess. That’s one of those moments when you started searching for something and ended up with a lot of confusing details.
