Jackson Jambalaya

Man what a loser. Stiff a local business and then purport yourself to be holder of the truth. What a tool.

HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA. Dang, what a spewer of crap.

I like the memo line of the check: "Gospel Brunch"

So you will post the debtors address and checking account number on the web, but redact the name of Tye's attorney. Why?

I didn't redact anything. If I find out the name of his lawyer, I will include it, Fair enough?

I was going to say, it does not appear that this was signed by an attorney. Usually protocol is name and Bar # I believe.

Bless Othor's heart. He defines "wannabe". Really.

Othor, by these facts (judgement presented in the post), appears to be a thief. Maybe a local news agency could look at this behavior and hold their own accountable - CHANNEL 16 ARE YOU THERE???

Here's your headline...

"Local talk show host stiffs local small business in the name of the Gospel."

I'd be executing on that judgement and teach his ass a lesson about stiffing people...even if it meant just getting his TV and couch.

Its shitheads like this that make it real hard on small business and a burden on the courts

DON"T GIVE UP TYE!! DROP THE HAMMER ON THIS BASTARD!!

He WANT's so much to be a big shot

Doesn't Tye owe some money himself?

Who gives a 'flighin rat's ass'?

Tye needs to add himself to Other's list.

Tye had to close his restaurant. I'm sure he had bills owed like most other business owners who are forced to cease operations.

3:51-- I didn't need representation, but thought it would be wise considering the bad check was over $1,000, so who cares who my attorney is.

5:56am-- The restaurant put me in debt over $100,000 in only 24 months, so yes, as you can imagine, I owe a LOT of money, to a lot of people, but NEVER wrote a bad check for $1,000 or more.

Yes, I was sucked into the whole "DOWNTOWN JACKSON REVITALIZATION idea" Whether I was too early, or too late, or whatever, that is for another thread somewhere else at another time. I met, and continue to stay in contact with, many good friends while we were open.

I had a working relationship with Othor in the past, which consisted of payments through Jackson State, so I never required him to give me a deposit, as the previous checks were always from JSU and were made good.

Look, I had a great time while downtown, but that little place wasn't worth losing my wife, my kids, my friends, and my SANITY over. It was a poor decision to open a restaurant in that location, at that time, PERIOD.

TYE,

Nice to meet you. I can sympathize with your situation. Had to close the family business of 35 years down, in downtown. Agreed it is not worth losing everything. We paid all of our bills and played by the rules when we closed. Closing a business is no fun. It is especially not fun when you have a person who, in good faith, stiffs you without any response. We had several people where we had to file judgments through the years and unfortunately, they would just change addresses, names, phones, etc. In the end, we paid off our debts; much like I am sure you are challenged with in your closure.

Othor is a public figure. He's also a bit of a tool. I just read he pretty much put himself out of business after his Atlanta gig. I wonder what he did there??? It is pretty low for him to do what he did to your business and continue to write like he does. He complains about crime in Jackson; I thought "kiting" a check was a crime - and if over a certain value ($1,000), a felony. Can criminal charges be brought? I think all you have to do is to file a complaint.

Hey where are all the knuckleheads that frequent Othor's blog. I thought for sure they would be over here busting a cap in our arses. Perhaps the truth set them free; I noticed not many comments on posts lately. If its not about some "girfriend" and some other JPD officer and some other "girfriend" it probably does not interest his readers.

Othor has a history of failing to make his debts; he used to live in an duplex on Madison Street just a house or two away from Fortification, but had to move "suddenly".

Tye, sorry that you had adversity in running your spot. I ate there a couple of times, and it was good.

I would like for you to hold forth on the realities of business in downtown Jackson, as I think someone who has been in the trenches as one of our generation (I'm about your age) could give the best perspective.

Would you be interested in doing that?

Face it the core of Metro-Jackson is downtown...... there are many people who have done well downtown. Maybe this issue (downtown) should be judged on a case by case basis.

I know of someone else that did this a few weeks ago to another restaurant. Had one of those fancy networking shendigs, and stiffed the owner

I liked Tye's. I also like Congress St. Grill...and it is packed every day. Sometimes things just don't work out even though everything indicates that they should.

Brett?

You won't be the last Tye to lose your shirt chasing the hype that is downtown. Smoke and mirrors.

Nope, not Mr. B. Someone else. I know why you said that but its not him.

How does someone who steals in this manner differ from the thug that lifts a wallet, grabs a purse, breaks into your house and eats your food?

He sent me an email stating "your post doesn't meant anything to me".

I'm sure it didn't.

Apparently Mr. Cain can afford a website but not a dinner.

Othor was run out of Atlanta for stealing Dottie Peeples' (gospel star) money. Why do people continue to trust him with money? I can recall my friend let him use her Chrysler Crossfire and he promised to pay the car note. He NEVER paid it and then stopped answering her calls. I heard about this post and had to see for myself. Othor is the biggest fraud in Jackson. He doesn't even have a college degree but lies like he obtain one from Jackson State or Belhaven. Othor is a big fraud!
