Almost a year to this incident, there are zero updates. Odd. But I just wanted to leave my theory as to what happened, as in my last post, I kinda just explained how I just found out about the news/shocked. Also being that the investigation or any updates or lack thereof is being publicized, I guess it's time to Unsolved Mysteries everything, and theorize etc.
Although I was unable to find any confirmed information on the guysite owner. Other than his legal/real name, no social media, not even his pictures, other than some pictures pop up, but I can't confirm/don't think it's him. I do know (or at least I believe, as maybe the cameraman was a seperate guy but I doubt?) he's the camerman as well, and when you look at the TGS clips, you could hear his voice/him interviewing/interacting with the tgs guys/and acting as director telling him how he wants his content done etc. So yeah.
What I believe, being that I was an on again/off again subscriber of the theguysite, is that the owner for whatever reason, favored/had a really strange bias towards "Ludwig" which he had his reasons, and those reasons we will never know as the site operator is sadly no longer with us.
But I do know, that theguysite since like 2004, was living up to it's name as "a guy site", to where he just featured normal/guy next door/dad bod/beer drinking dorky normal guys. He probably mainly recruited possibly drunk/under the influence straight guys. Made them sign a contract saying that he's gonna post pictures of them modelling on a pay per view site and yeah. (Although he has removed hundreds of guys [usually guys who were on the site in earlier/older years] off the site, most likely due to request of the guys no longer wanting to be on there, and he obliged and honored that.) It was a done deal, and you never saw that guy again, and rinse and repeat x1000 of these straight guys who were drunk/the site owner had damn good persuasion skills/were exhibitionists/had no idea what they were doing or getting into/dared by their girlfriends to go in a hotel room and do a solo session. Bob's your uncle, that was it. No emotional strings attached.
But it wasn't until the site got really popular, and people got bored of him having thousands of dad bod/average/standing outside a bar haggard looking straight guys jerk off in a motel room, that he started to change his content, and he now started to feature like overtly conventional appearing muscle hunks, and there were more recurring guys, and also actual sex content, group scenes, anal, action scenes etc. and even got some famous names/award winning gay porn stars on his site, which didn't hurt, and was good for his site.
During this new phase/rebranding, one of the models as I said the site owner was biased to, was "Ludwig", to where Ludwig was featured in way more scenes/content/appeared on the site at a more exorbitant rate, compared to the other guys.
Now this is where theories come in. It's also possible some of these theories could intertwine as well. So yeah.
Theory 1:Ludwig was not being properly paid. Ludwig confronted the site owner at his home, and whatever they argued/griped about, lead to what happened, happening. Doesn't mean the guy had to die/be murdered, but yeah.
Theory 2:(this theory seems to be rumored online more), Ludwig was having financial issues, and the tgs sitemaster offered to let him stay with him. Ludwig probably only saw the victim as a friend/buddy, and maybe he tried to do something sexual to him, and Ludwig snapped, and "gay panic" mode possible. Leading to what happened to have happened.
Theory 3:Ludwig regretted doing pictures/videos for tgs, and asked the siteowner to take down anything with him on it. There was a argument related to this, and what happened, ended up happening.
So I am slightly upset there have been zero new updates, or any new motions.
However. Ludwig, very gross and sickening to say, has a damn good laywer (Mark O'Hara/Zimmerman laywer) so his counsel is good, but it doesn't excuse what happened, and we have zero information or new reports.
But I feel if this goes to jury trial, anything could happen.
If a plea bargain is made, or if the case goes forward, if he pleads any self defense Florida statues, it could also make things complicated.
I really wish we could be updated in this case, but we have nothing, and that's the American legal system for ya. Smh. But the only people who know the true story as to what happened is theguysite owner, who is no longer here, and Ludwig so yeah.
Again, it's a shame theguysite owner is dead, and this is just an interesting and unfortunate case all around. But hopefully we do get more pieces of this story. Really unfortunate.
