This kind of theft seems so standard in the industry. It's surprising they get away with it.
Dane Cook was famously assfucked out of $12 million by his own (half) brother, who was also his manager. Dude was hiding cash in jars of spaghetti sauce.
IIRC he did prison time for it and it was in the news again recently as it was made into a documentary.
Al Pacino got taken for all of his liquid cash: $50 million, by his accountant.
