If there's one thing I have to say on the matter, it is this: As far as I am concerned, one: he is innocent until proven guilty, and two: it's none of my concern.

Saw this article this morning before work. My question is was he one of the guys doing the fraud. Or did he get swindle into this and all. As for 30th anniversary if mmpr guys are to be in it. He likely won't if he does get found guilty. As for seeing him years from now. If he stays clean in jail time and agter. I don't see it being that big of a issue of getting his career going again. Fvs say Richardo killing his roommate or the stuff bill Cosby did.

Two Green Rangers has weighed in on this. From Jason David Frank (Tommy, MMPR Green and other colors) https://www.tiktok.com/@jdftiktok/video/7099667163207830830 And a bad take from Micheal Taber (Riley, Dino Charge Green) mobile.twitter.com/i/web/status/1527706524272824320

I really don't know the full details of what happened, but I'm gonna be the adult here and wait and let the law do it's work.
He deserves his day in court. If he truly did it, he must pay, but if you ask me, I believe he's innocent and just got wrapped up in something he knew nothing about.
But my personal stance makes me the stupid one, but the smart ones are the people who OBVIOUSLY have no understanding of what happened automatically write him off as guilty and I found out why. Its because of his political views.
Austin St. John is supposedly a hard-core Trump supporter.
He hasn't been convicted of anything, and until you are convicted, you are innocent — at least that’s what decent people believe.
Big IF! If he's innocent, I don't know if I can be part of a fandom that writes off an innocent man who basically became a real life Power Ranger after the show ended as guilty just because he supported Donald Trump, it's disgusting.
But IF he truly did it, he can rot for all I care.
I just hope this hurts Hasbro so they can stop with MMPR pandering and put this MMPR reunion to a screeching halt, and just keep adapting Sentai and write better shows.

I don't think supporting Donald Trump makes him a bad person or disgusting. But I agree, we have to wait and see. The current cultural climate and media attack people because it has different views or opinions, and if something people should learn, like the current Johnny Depp vs Amber Heard's trial, it's jumping before conclussion ahead of time, it's the worse thing you can do. So, if it's true, that's really bad. If he's innocent, good for him.

What makes you think that they are even going to adapt anymore Sentai shows after Dino Fury (season two) and the next Power Rangers season in 2023? I mean, haven't you been watching the news about the franchise going in a different direction nowadays? We know that Super Sentai is gonna continue to exist with or without Power Rangers. But the franchise will have to start finding its' own identity whether it's in a Netflix cinematic universe or in the form of adapting Boom! Studios comic storylines into animated movies or mini-series.

Studios comic storylines into animated movies or mini-series. The new direction that we haven't gotten any official news about for nearly a year. The claim that Hasbro will break away from Super Sentai which hasn't been confirmed to be true by any official sources so far. There is NO plan to make Power Rangers "find it own identity" when they've made it obvious they are trying to make it like the MCU, which has been proven to not be a winning formula. Netflix is cancelling a multitude of planned animated and live action shows after losing 200,000 subscribers. Like I said, Hasbro distancing themselves from Toei will legit be the downfall of PR. So far I’ve seen 0 creativity and no attention towards the new seasons, instead we’re continuing to get the same MMPR merch and even the possibility of a cancellation on the actual show.

It's amazing how we just went from commenting about Austin St. John's fraud scandal to suddenly talking about the unseeable future of Power Rangers in Hasbro's hands in one day. Really goes to show how much nobody else, besides the media cares about what goes on in these actors' personal lives.

Damn, if Jason Geiger wanted to steal money he should have at least taken it from Haim Saban's bank account.

If I remember correctly, the whole court process begins this Tuesday.
Update: I was wrong. The process will begin Wednesday, and the information will come from the man himself.
