Homeless Hater Greg Gopman Sued for Abusing Funds And Terrorizing CEO

Source: Valleywag

Former AngelHack CEO Greg Gopman was just as toxic towards his own startup as he was towards homeless people. In a lawsuit filed this month in California State Superior Court, his cofounder Sabeen Ali claims that Gopman used money from AngelHack's bank accounts to pay for personal expenses including his $4,500/month apartment rent, credit card debt, as well as "elaborate vacations" in Thailand and Colombia.

It wasn't just for pleasure, though. Gopman also allegedly broke into Ali's company accounts, purported to fire all of AngelHack's employees, and prevented communication with clients. In short, the claims in the lawsuit sound like a flawless execution of a cofounder's worst nightmare.

... Adding salt to the wound, Gopman's alleged spree of startup misdeeds came after the Facebook outburst that cost AngelHack clients, sponsorship partners, and more.

I live in Sf and there has always been homeless people but lately I'm seeing homeless who aren't mentally ill but down on their luck. it's so sad. I see the effects of not extending unemployment benefits to people.
