In a nutshell

pecuniumThe whole Million Little Pieces flap (for those who didn't know, the author of an autobiographical story is now accused {in a big way} of making it all up), Steve Gilliard sums it all up.
Mr. Frey might want to save himself the trouble of lying on TV. He had his run, but his con is busted. The shit he's saying is not legally possible and only a rich white boy would think so. Besides, didn't Ben Stiller play this guy in Permanent Midnight?
Criminal records do not disappear unless the CIA needs you in Afghanistan, maybe not then. Prison terms don't vanish. Three months is a lot of time to serve for a skell and his prints and mug shot, public documents, would be on file.
Hitting a cop? A college boy? Oh he'd have been locked up, townies hate that shit. And if he was beaten, where's the hospital report?
But this is the kind of tale which will sell well. A rich white kid descends into a life of debauchery, associates with wastrels and then redeems himself.
You can rent this as Henry V at Netflix.
