Hey everyone my name is Cody Marmon... I have known SHANE LATHAM since 2006 when I first met him on none other than Xbox. I thought he was a friend of mine until I figured out I was one of many in a long line of people that he has scammed, used and abused, and that he has NO INTENTIONS WHATSOEVER of ever paying me!

I began doing graphic design with Photoshop CS3 and After Effects over 3 years ago in my sophmore year. It started with his gaming site called "Live Assault" that was the "NEW BEST THING" coming out and I just "had to be involved", so I helped him out and made graphics for the website for free.

Next came his LAGtv which I was a part of ever since I was approached by LATHAM in December 2007. I made graphic overlays, show intros, outros, scoreboards, designs for the website, ads, ...pretty much EVERYTHING you can think of that's on a website, for LAGTV... AND ALL for free with never ending promises of fortune in the "near future". This went on for a year... and for that year I would work after school from 4 PM often until 3 AM. All this while I am in high school...and YEAH... my grades DID drop because of this. Beginning of Junior year I had probably done a little over 2, 000 graphics total for LATHAM and the website which had branched off onto a new streaming site we called " UFRAG tv ".

I was the original creator of the UFRAG logo and ads but was never paid. This went on most of my Junior year with LATHAM always telling me AGAIN I would be getting paid someday soon some big money. He dangled the carrot by saying if I left I would miss out.

AGAIN, LATHAM set me up with a company called "Cherries Internet Cafe" which I made logos, show overlays, ads and everything with the result of promises but no payment which made me really angry after a while.

And AGAIN, LATHAM was taking payment for a website ATSN ( American Trigger Sports Network ) which he had me do a lot of the work. When James Towle found out that LATHAM hadn't paid me a penny, he stepped up and took care of me for the logo I made for them and to this day I still have high respect for James Towle and his work. But by the end of my junior year in high school in March or May (I can't recall) I left LAGtv and UFRAGtv both together because I was never paid a penny for ANY of my work.

I'm not sure if I will ever be paid for my work, but I have done the math and all together, with an average of 5 days a week, 7+ hours a day, every week for almost 2 years I should have been paid a minimum of $50, 000 or even a $100, 000 for the kind of design work I was doing. I abused my health to work for LATHAM, gaining over 50 pounds doing this sedentary work for him which over the past year I have lost thank God. I feel like through all of this I have I just wasted 2 years of my life with no form of payment or satisfaction. I have been seriously betrayed by an individual who made me believe WE WERE FRIENDS! I just wish there was a way I could get some, if any, of the money I deserve for all of my hard work and time.
