Next Gen NYC: Crypto Crimes & Scams (Part 1)

Trigger Warning: Discussion of abuse.   Denise Richards cannot seem to catch a break when it comes to the men in her life. In this episode, we’re breaking down her messy divorce from Aaron Phypers and his long list of lawsuits, including one for misrepresenting he could cure cancer. Let's just say, his “healing through frequencies” routine is falling apart and we see right through his tabloid interviews.    What’s on the docket?   Denise and Aaron’s relationship timeline and RHOBH history   Aaron’s lawsuits for debt, fraud, and exploiting a cancer patient   Their divorce battle and why Aaron representing himself complicates everything   Aaron’s petition and eyebrow-raising income and expense claims   Denise’s temporary restraining order and her declaration of abuse    If you or someone you know is experiencing abuse, call the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-SAFE (7233).    Access additional content and our Patreon here: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://zez.am/thebravodocket⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠                 The Bravo Docket podcast, the statements we make whether in our own media or elsewhere, and any content we post are for entertainment purposes only and do not provide legal advice.
