"A Million Little Pieces" Author Exposed As Fraud

A Million Little Lies - January 8, 2006

This is sad, but funny. Apparently this guy wrote some sob story fiction about life as a drug addict, alcoholic, and criminal, but couldn't sell it. So what did he do? He marketed it as an autobiography.

Saps like Oprah ate it up, and he ended up selling about four million copies. He even showed up on her show, and she fawned all over him. I wonder if she would have fawned over him had she known then what would hit the presses today?

See, The Smoking Gun decided to add one of his allegedly numerous mug shots to their infamous mug shot collection, and guess what? They couldn't find any, or at least nothing that corresponded even remotely to what he wrote in the book.

They decided to check into his real background, and have exposed him as a fraud.

Oops.

The Smoking Gun's report is long, but well worth the time it takes to read it. In fact, I recommend it far more highly than I recommend this guy's sob-story fake book.
