    Glad I can be a little more transparent here. Definitely want to say that at the end of it all it’s a shitty situation. I also wouldn’t blame Aaron for this as he didn’t really find out about all this until I first got to talk to him about it during our all terrain tour(will talk more on that I promise). That man does everything in his power to do right by skateboarding and although I don’t agree with what he does outside of work, he is an amazing man and has done a shit ton for the community. Braille has always been one of the best things to happen to me and I’m beyond grateful for everything we’ve done and will continue to do. But I do feel like being open and honest is the best way to move forward. 🖤💯

      What did you do before now? Seems it happened a while back. You seem to have been fully aware he was drunk around kids and the fact there are two incidents where Carlos was acting sketchy. You all screwed up if this is how it's being handled. Chatting cryptic on a podcast and then releasing texts here is not doing anything. How did the girl's parents react when you spoke to them? Or is this the most you've done about it? Creating views and drama for UA-cam.

      I knew it was kid related the way you reacted. Only thing it could've been. I also always wondered about the "religion" thing because believing in an alien god or whatever doesn't seem to line up with you either. I'm just curious, with so many people around Braille involved in it, does it ever get talked about at work or ever seem like they're recruiting? Not recruiting the kids, honestly seems like Aaron just wants more skaters because it's brought so much to his life, but more so employees.

    The bad thing is Braille had Carlos in future videos when they went to that one indoor skatepark and despite the situation you would hear people like Aaron and Gabe say "Man I miss Carlos" So if Nigel's side of the story is 1000% then idk what will happen for Braille as a business because they're already skipping daily uploads and getting under 20 views on some of their vids.

    • @kai_plays_khomus

      Well, maybe someone will miss them. I won't. They leeched onto skateboarding culture to funnel money into scientology, for recruiting and spreading the organisation's influence - it's not a accident they zeroed in on skateboarding of all things..
      Watching their content means paying an inhuman psycho-cult, and in my humble opinion this got adressed way too little in skate culture at large, to a degree that I'm legitimatly disappointed if not disillusioned by the scene.
      Skateboarding is freedom - scientology is the precise opposite and shouldn't be tolerated whatsoever, just as any other cult trying to infiltrate it.
      I don't believe for one second that Kyro didn't/doesn't use his project to sigle out and recruiting the vulnerable - he's so thoroughly brainwashed that he couldn't possibly help himself, and whoever collaborates with/works for him is an enabler, whether willingly or not.

I watch some Skateline here and there but I don't feel connected to the overall skate "scene" and really dunno how it's handled it. I do know that whenever I've been in chats and Braille comes up there are a lottttt of ppl making Xenu jokes and calling them out. And people hate Berra. But ppl do not seem to call out Berrics for the Scientology. Maybe because Berra hasn't explicitly said he's doing it all for Xenu and so he can buy down his Thetan levels

    Damn dude, I was definitely one of the people saying "it can't be that bad because we saw how Braille deleted Fetty from existence," I guess I just didn't consider that they could have hypocritical solutions to even worse offenders. If what Nigel is saying is true (and you're right that it seems like it is, otherwise Carlos would've denied it) then they definitely should've ditched him in a similar way and certainly shouldn't have brought him back, really seems like they're not taking it as seriously as they should be.
    Glad it's out there though, people need to know stuff like this especially since even if he's not actively teaching anymore (which he might be, I don't know) there are obviously still going to minors around whenever he goes to skate parks and such. Just takes one kid recognizing him from an old video and putting the creepy stranger on a pedestal for shit to go wrong fast. Nigel probably won't read this random youtube comment, but if you do thanks for not sitting on this information forever and being the guy with enough integrity to out the predator instead of quietly tolerating them.

    I am not defending Carlos. This happened a long time ago and it was only brought up in a podcast.

    I was a young girl working closely behind the scenes with those at the Braille house for a short time in 2019. I know who they are talking about and Carlos did similar things to me. I have been too afraid to speak out but I can corroborate this story. I hate that I’ve lost many of the “receipts” but I know. I eventually lost my position due to his actions.

    Not saying what Carlos did was ok, but it would be a different story if he was trying to deny everything. He didn’t completely own up to what he did, he just didn’t deny anything. It does show a small amount of regret/remorse. What he should do is issue a public apology or atleast somehow apologize to the people he hurt. Maybe even donate money to a SA charity or something.

      Generally adults who touch kids aren't first time offenders unfortunately. I don't know what sort of demons he has or if he was molested as a child, regardless there is no excuse. If he wants to make amends he should turn himself into the police report that sexual assault but that would make him accountable and owning up into his actions something few sexual offenders ever do.

      Lol he owned up after he was already caught and everything was out in the open

      I understand that. I am not taking his side nor did I say what he has done is ok. At the end of the day, everyone makes mistakes and wishes they were a better person. Or maybe that’s just me and everyone else that grew up poor, experienced addiction, experienced abuse, and their parents lived off disability….how many people do you see that deny they did anything wrong at all even after being confronted????? I’m not forgiving what he did. I’m just saying it does show a little bit of remorse….

    Carlos really was one of my favorites. He took crazy hard slams for brail(dumpster ) and was super dedicated to his craft it seemed . Super messed up to hear all this
