Tim Brazeal is a typical Trekkie Loser fan-boi criminal, probably
living in his mama's basement. Yeah, Texans like Tim are so honest.
Just look at George W. Bush.
Producer Works For Trek Fans?
Trek Today reported that a Canadian producer lobbied on behalf of the
fan group Trek United with an unnamed Paramount executive to revive
UPN's canceled Star Trek: Enterprise for a fifth season. The report
was based on unverified assertions by Trek United; Paramount has
consistently denied that it is in talks with anyone and has said that
the decision to cancel Enterprise is final. Trek United, for its part,
continues to insist it is in secret talks with unnamed Paramount
officials as it solicits funds from Trek fans.
The SyFy Portal Web site, meanwhile, identified the Canadian producer
as Al Vinci, who said he is a former child actor who purportedly made
the pitch to Paramount on behalf of Trek United. The site was unable
to verify Vinci's claims or his resume.
Meanwhile, Tim Brazeal, the leader of Trek United, admitted to a
criminal background in an unusual posting on Trek United's own message
boards on April 14. Among other things, Brazeal admitted to a Texas
conviction for auto theft based on an incident in 1983, for which he
said he was placed on 10 years of probation and ordered to pay $10,000
in restitution. Brazeal also admitted to a 1979 arrest for marijuana
possession. "I have not been in trouble since this time," Brazeal
wrote, adding: "I was young and stupid, and I learned from my
mistakes."
Trek United said it has raised more than $3.14 million in pledges and
contributions from fans eager to finance a fifth season of Enterprise
and has also said that donors are promised their money back if the
show doesn't come back, minus handling fees to cover the cost of banks
and Paypal.
