THE PYRAMID BOOTLEG SCHEME

NEWS: SINGER HIRED, FIRED, UNCOVERS BOOTLEG OPERATION

TAMPA, FL - This summer, Hell On Earth singer BillY Tourtelot devoted his time teaching art to mentally and physically challenged adults at Pyramid Incorporated. Tourtelot was hired as management and took the title of Visual Arts Coordinator. Though he had exceeded all expectations and made breakthrough progress with his students, he was terminated after supervisor Nancy Jordan learned he was in the band, Hell On Earth.

"This kind of discrimination is just despicable," Tourtelot said.

Even more despicable then their termination policy is Pyramid's apparent involvement in a major motion picture piracy operation. Prior to being terminated, Tourtelot was reevaluating his involvement with the company after uncovering their illegal activities.

"After I witnessed Pyramid showing full-length bootlegs of movies like, I ROBOT, at their facility, I knew something wasn't right. That movie just came out at the theaters and they have it bootlegged on DVD. I had to ask myself, 'How can I continue to work for a company that is involved with a major motion picture piracy ring?'"

Tourtelot never had to make that decision for he was terminated within days of witnessing the crimes.

Pyramid Inc. is currently the center of a MPAA (Motion Picture Association of America) piracy investigation.
