Thread: Dave Plumbo go to jail?

Posted by Anthony Roberts on May 28, 2010



Personal injury lawsuit filed against Species Nutrition – and more!

Earlier this week, a lawsuit was filed against Species Nutrition in Kings County court, of New York – a court that ranks among the top in the nation when it comes to average settlements for personal injury. The company itself, as well as owner of the company, Dave Palumbo, were both named individually in the lawsuit, along with Bodybuilding.com, Nutricap, and Bactolac (the distributor/retailer of the product in question, and the sites where the product was manufactured).



The lawsuit alleges near-fatal injuries – liver failure – sustained as a result of ingesting the Species Nutrition products “Lipolyze” and “Somalyze.”
The complaint is a few hundred pages long (most are about twenty pages or so), with thousands of paragraphs, citing numerous causes of action. Also included in the complaint is a comprehensive history of usnic acid products, direct quotes from Palumbo personally, a summarization of both Palumbo and his product(s),and facts detailing that what he is telling the public in the promotion of his products is in direct contradiction to what has been documented by medical experts.



There was no dollar amount listed in the complaint, as damages (the sum of money estimated to be the defendant’s liability in the case) cannot be actually set forth in the complaint itself, according to NY State law. After the filing stage, the complaint still needs to be served to Palumbo, at which point he has a limited time period to file a response (depending on the type of service). Typically, the Defendant can make a “Demand” for damages claimed, at which point the plaintiff will usually serve a response (i.e. “You’ve caused $5 million dollars of damage, pain and suffering, etc…to the plaintiff”).

The damages here are huge…in the millions. When you add up the medical bills surrounding a liver transplant, plus the care and medication, the price tag easily creeps into the $250,000 range. Now, factor in an estimated cost of $3k/month for continued medication and care (necessary with a liver transplant), and the damages ought to be in the millions without breaking a sweat. Of course, none of these necessary medical costs factor in the pain and suffering, punitive damages, and other . This case is easily going to be in the multi-million dollar range.

Species Nutrition is only worth about $300-400k (yearly net multiplied by a factor of 4-6x, which is the standard way to assess what a company would sell for), and only carries $1m worth of insurance.

If not for else, he should do some time for selling fake HGH

yeah, this douche bag ripped me off, I sent him 5 bottles of 1-Andro in exchange for him to run a log at BB.com forums and on his own board as well as run my banner, etc. I sent him the products and he never responded so I contacted him and he ignored me, then I saw that he had posted a thread asking about selling my products online.

Here is his website (he is the owner/admin): www.Fkn0wned.Com

His profile: TuxifieD Profile

The reason I got banned is I started a thread at Bb.com about this incident and included his name/mailing address, etc.

I've considered using his Usnic acid supplements before. It can be used responsibly. It's not illegal because it's natural. It sounds like a civil suit without criminal charges.

I believe he already did that time.
