They all three are not escrow agents. cabalism13 started the charity out of his own interest and was inspired by other charities from which one was hosted by the forum member and ex-moderator (?) Dabs. cabalism13 started the charity.
Thanks for that explanation; I got the feeling from reading part of the other thread that cabalism13 had more to do with it other than just being an escrow, but that certainly doesn't excuse him from misappropriating funds.  It's the same level of wrongdoing if not worse IMO.

For the time being, I will treat the whole thing as a combination of various life circumstances that could have happened to any of us - and I hope that all three members will be able to prove that this is the case.
Are we both reading the same thread?  Stealing from a charity isn't a life circumstance that could happen to any of us, if only because not everyone will ever have control over the entire amount of money donated by others for charitable purposes.  Cabalism13 isn't going to be able to wiggle his way out of this one, but I'll be very interested to see what the other two end up saying and doing.

And his/their reputation(s) weren't ruined in a matter of days, though it may seem that way.  They were in the process of being ruined whenever the first bit of money was spent on non-charity things or sent to Binance to gamble or split up between the three members in question.  I'm sure they were hoping it would go unnoticed if they stayed quiet, because they knew a thread like this would be the result, as well as an indelible black mark smeared on their reputations.  Well, that goes for cabalism13 for now; I'll await the story from the other two.
