: MediaTakeOut.com just received a TERRIBLE report. Beyonce and her mother might be GOING TO JAIL . . . at least according to a recent lawsuit.
Here’s what we know so far. Beyonce and her mama are being accused of engaging in shady deals with Vietnam companies that cost apparel maker Vier International $500,000.
Vier International owners claim that executives at a Bey and Tina's House of Dereon conspired to order shipments of goods from Vier Int. at bargain basement prices. The goods were then “converted” to House of Dereon pieces and sold at higher prices.
The fashion bible WWD is saying that Bey and Tina purchased cheap garments from the Asian company but requested “manufacturer specifications” so that the garments would not need altering before going to market.
Here’s the good part. Vier International filed a claim under the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO), the same law used in most Mafia prosecutions. Technically, if they win, Beyonce or Tina may face JAIL TIME!!!
We’ll keep you up to date on this one . . .
WOW MTO, you do not know what the heck you are talking about. Everytime you guys report on the law you get it wrong 1. MOST "designer" brands take cheap prefabricated clothing products and sell them at designer prices. 2. Selling cheap stuff at higher prices is not illegal, but may be cause for a civil suit 3. RICO is not a private right of action - meaning a private party cant sue you under RICO and then get you thrown in jail, they can sue you for something and ALLEGE RICO violations, then the Attorney General can decide whether to bring RICO charges against you - go back to school MTO
@luckys I was reading comments from the other day and I saw you talking about seeing it on sandra. I also found it on one of the hate on bey blogs. So you're right MTO is lying. I bet dreampoop will serve her time for her either way Beyonce will not wind up behind bars.
@doll11-one girl just stepped in for a minute about to go to church. I know this thread will be popping later on.
Hey Prissy3 - lol, but playing devils advocate here it could be Bey paid MTO to put out all these stories today, after all aren't she in some commercial for super bowl today? what better way to transition from blogging to watching her so that more blogging gonna ensue, lmao and only kidding, not gonna go there.
bluepeas i worked for gap. there clothes are made all over the world. the had a scandal once. the company they contracted to make a girl clothing item. had sweatshops in india the destroyed every single ***. gap donates with product red. old navy is cheap. banana republic, gap, and old navy there all the same company but thats how there ranked in quality
Ummm now let's see the RICO Act...they probably will be able to settle this before it goes to court...but the RICO Act is Federal...whole different type of situation...they trying to bring lil #23 down anyway they can...that's how the media does when they get tired of U being in the limelight...they try and bring U down...
No wonder her clothing line looked cheap and ugly.
I can't believe people would by that ***. Given her history, it comes as no surprise they do *** like this. Her whole family are con artists who rob and steal ideas, music and now clothing and materials from others to get rich. The economy is bad, and you make all of this money, does it hurt to make sure others are taken care of. This is why I don't buy her ***, I don't support her, her family or that skank *** camel of hers. Now his hotel venture is in the toilet too. Karma is a mofo and so is stupidity.
Vier International owners claim that executives at a Bey and Tina's House of Dereon conspired to order *** of goods from Vier Int. at bargain basement prices. The goods were then “converted” to House of Dereon pieces and sold at higher prices.

Isn't this what companies do every *** day tho?! Most companies pay very little for their proucts, then overprice them when they're ready to sell to us, the customers.
@longhairdontcare how was church?
@nubian Matthew is the one that taught them how to be crooks and do dirt. If Bey does go to jail I wonder will all the fallen destiny members put money on the book. Kelly, Michelle, Toya, Tavia or Farrah, which person she stepped on will be there for her?
@luckys MTO lie so much and want to be the number one entertainment news media but they mix too much garbage in, in order to be number one.
They don't have to make her look bad. She does that to herself naturally with all the lies and shady dealings. Taking credit for work that she never did. If it were yall and you had a business and she went behind your back to take your product at a low rate what would you do? Just laugh and chalk it up as just being business? Get real. This is the real world and people need to eat...not just the crooked Knowleses.
Mediatakeout needs to get it right. Beyonce is being sued for breach of contract. HJM International, shipping outfit, and her clothing company induced the *** of the goods to the U.S. with the intent to pay less than THE AGREED UPON PRICE.
This has nothing to do with cheap clothes being marked up because we all knows that happen. This situation is about two companies conspiring against the other to get a better deal than what was agreed upon.
Rofl @ baldwinvillage using Jesus and Beyonce in the same sentence. Did Jesus tell beyonce to spread her legs out for every performance. Rofl. Bey's camp and Satan are walking hand and hand together. Rofl. Didn't you know or did you miss the memo? 33rd degree Mason, oh ok. Now if I were you I would pray for her. I have to admit that even I pray for them. They need it.
I don't care how much money Bey has, if found of wrong doings she will get indicted and face Federal charges, not to mention having ties to RICO, which has known Mafia ties. Which speaks for itself, she is in to deep and know to much much regarding their business. She sold her birth rights to the devil, now her mind has become a reprobate mind.
First I don't know why Bey would wanna go the cheap route with all that money she has and The clothing sucks anyways..it's ugly design and feels cheap..so I wouldn't doubt it! However she will get no jail time but maybe she will sit down for a minute. Her moms look shady too..so maybe she did this without Bey knowing, she is a busy lady and she lets other handle her business.
@nubian why in the world am I watching the Super Bowl and I see this chick in one of the commericals. This is the *** six months ever. It's bad enough I had to see the camel. Do this woman do normal things like sleep or go to the bathroom? I know she doesn't have time for anything....that's why she haven't learned how to cook.
MTO please do better Legal Research... A private party or Company can't bring RICO charges, they can allege them in a civil suit as this Vier Corp has against Dereon. BTW most fashion companies do the "buy cheap garments and alter then slap an expensive label on it" thing. The RICO charges would have to be picked up by the Government before they would face an ounce of Jail time. RICO is very hard to prove.
That's civil and the FEDS probably will not touch it either way. SMH at this misinformation. Some people just want to hate of this woman. Get a life. Safari, did Bey still your man in HS because you hate on her like you are getting paid to, like its your job. You probably got off when you read this headline.
You know what? I've been hearing alot about Beyonce being in legal battles and getting sued lately. This could be bad if it is true, but I don't see jail time in Beyonce's future. I only see me lol. I hope to God that this ish isn't true, but the jail pic is hilarious though. I couldn't help myself from posting just because of that funny azz picture. Well, it also helps that this is a story about Beyonce.
