This comes after Korra called on her online community members, seeking for their monetary support to provide her legal fees to fight Justin in court.
Justin insists that she scammed her followers of their hard earned money, revealing that she bought 2 cars and 2 houses over the last two years.
He also stated that if she truly couldn’t afford the fees, how was she able to go on a vacation in Hawaii if not with the donated money.
The doctor further buttressed his claims by sharing a voice recording of the dancer’s sister where she was heard saying Korra had the money but needed a different one from her fans to fight against Justin.
