> I have no clue if they are true, or how true they are, but I believe that because he disregarded his lawyer's advice and made a statement, there is at least a little bit of truth here.

Quinn Norton’s account of her interactions with Scoble has been corroborated by multiple witnesses and it drastically disagrees with Scoble’s account: https://twitter.com/willoremus/status/923257035742781440

Layers advise clients to remain silent even if they are 100% innocent because talking almost always makes things worse.

That is a link to a screen grab of a Norton quote alongside a screen grab of a Scoble quote. It doesn’t seem to include any corroboration by anyone. Wrong link?

That screengrab was to highlight the differences; for corroboration, see the comments section in Norton’s article itself: https://medium.com/@quinnnorton/robert-scoble-and-me-9b14ee9...

It was corroborated by Tim O’Reilly, who went further and said that Scoble’s behavior got him banned from future O’Reilly conferences: https://mobile.twitter.com/timoreilly/status/921124414418182...
