Dee Mower filed a lawsuit against David Novak alleging fraud for $19.75M ($9.75M actual damages and “at least $10M” punitive), plus attorneys’ fees. Dee’s complaint framed Novak’s motive as debt: allegedly he’d taken nearly $2M (via Ken Dolezsar) in order to make a documentary of DownTime (his white-collar-criminal consultancy book) but never delivered the product. Then, facing exposure, Novak allegedly killed Ken — or arranged for Chris Wright to do it.
