    OMG! I am LITERALLY not surprised by one part of this. I’m an Aussie and I’ve worked in the surf industry and I’ve seen people like Mirtl my whole life. I spotted him as a scammer the second I laid eyes on him. The way he inserted himself into the Lawrence family and business was a recipe for disaster. I never wanted to speak badly about anyone without evidence but for years I’ve felt like shouting at the Lawrence family to be careful of that scumbag. The truth always comes out eventually!

Only saw dollar signs from the beginning to gain personal wealth as his number one goal.

    That little bit of stolen money is going to lose him so much more in the long run, just in the Lawrence camp alone, but then you factor in every other rider he work(ed) for... and he didn't just ruin his career, he's going to lose his freedom, i feel bad for his family if he's married with kids... and i guarantee everyone he's involved with, along with the police, is going to pick through every deal/account with fine tooth comb. That one mess up may and likely will lead to a lot more charges, i highly doubt he's only doing it to the Lawrence's... cause if he does it to people he considered family, he'll do it to anyone else without a second thought. The real question is, how long has this been going on and did he just finally have a slip up to where he got caught? I doubt it's the first time, but you never know, for his sake he better hope it's the first and only time.
    I don't understand why people all of a sudden feel entitled to more money and decide to get greedy. He was killing it the last couple years in particular, a lot of titles and races won, and business deals made. If you feel you're worth more, wait and re-work your contract with them.. He did a lot for them so i'm sure the whole family took really good care of him, and besides just his flat percentage he gets (got) on everything, im sure he got some good bonuses throughout the year with all those main event/outdoor wins and title bonuses.. it's just a shame cause he was really good at his job and I'm wondering how this is going to effect Jett come race day, or if it's something they've known about for over a week or so but didn't do anything official till now.. cause you don't want to give him a heads up that you're onto him, you want to get your lawyers all the evidence and all your ducks in a row before confronting him so he's got no where to go or hide. If it is this new, then I hope Jett and Hunter are where they need to be mentally come A2. Normally when it comes to a manager, you wouldn't think it'd bother them that much, but he's been with them forever and they viewed and treated him as family, so it can't be easy on them. Hopefully Hayes will be able to do as good of a job for them in the long run. I doubt he'd rip them off, I've always liked Hayes and it's good to see him be successful post racing.. Plus, managing both brothers is a HUGE opportunity, I'm sure he's pumped
