Jacob Blow and Graciano Lopez Have Been Kicked Out of the GLOMM
/Dull slob, Jacob Blow has been kicked out of the Global League of Magicians and Mentalists for his recent rape conviction.
This article states:
“A rapist magician has been sent to prison for sickening crimes that resulted in his victim trying to take her own life.”
As the GLOMM boot list continues to grow, “rapist magician” is becoming an all-too common description. It’s becoming it’s own sub-category. “I’m a close-up magician.” “I’m a kid’s show magician.” “I’m a rapist magician.” I’m surprised it’s not its own section on the Magic Cafe. I mean, there are more entrants on the GLOMM’s banned member list than there are posts in the “mime section” of the Cafe.
“Blow was said to have initially tried to deny any wrongdoing before breaking down and admitting to his dad and police what he had done. However, he then denied the allegations saying he lied when initially speaking to the police because he thought if he agreed with what was being claimed that would be it and he could carry on doing magic.”
So, in addition to being a rapist, he’s also a fucking moron.
His YouTube channel is still up. If you ever wanted to see the embodiment of this meme
fumble his way through a card trick, you still can.
Graciano Lopez, aka Louie Lopez, aka Jolly Bean the clown, owner of the depressing shithole known as Jolly Bean’s Magic Castle (pictured below) has been sentenced to 106 yeas to life (I think 106 years will probably be enough) for the sexual abuse of multiple victims.
From this article:
“[The Judge] said Lopez took advantage of positions of trust — as a foster parent in the case of two victims, as an employer at his lawn service company and Jolly Bean’s Magic Castle, a magic shop near a middle school — to sexually abuse vulnerable young children who looked up to him and trusted him.”
At his sentencing, Graciano thanked law enforcement ”for working tirelessly so these young men's voices could be heard," and the two boys for "bravely starting this process."
"You saved my life. And now I can get the help that I need. I didn't set out to hurt anyone, but in the end my actions hurt so many.”
Of course, it’s easy to pretend to be remorseful once your sorry ass has been busted. If you “don’t set out to hurt anyone” and then spend 15 years assaulting multiple victims, then you’re evil and an idiot. We need you to rot in prison because otherwise you might “not set out to hurt someone” and push them in front a bus, or shove a fire poker through their stomach.
Yes, you’re going to die in prison, but on the plus side, you no longer have to run that dump you called a magic store, and you don’t have to embarrass yourself in this get-up anymore. So maybe it’s a lateral move.
