Amazon’s Campaign To Crush The Nelson Family: The Ugly Truth Behind Corporate Power And Greed

Күн бұрын

Join me as I interview my good friend and entrepreneur, Amy Nelson, founder of Riveter, as we discuss her family's ongoing legal battle against Amazon.
In this interview, Amy shares with us some key takeaways:
Amy's husband, Carl, was accused of a crime by Amazon, leading to the seizure of their assets and causing immense stress and financial strain for the family.
Despite the three-year legal battle, the Nelson family continues to fight for their rights and freedom against Amazon.
Amy has learned valuable lessons throughout this ordeal about overcoming adversity, staying positive and determined, and setting the right example for her four daughters.
Recent legal victories, including Judge Alston's ruling in favor of Nelson and the other defendants, have given continued hope to their cause.
Amy's use of TikTok has helped raise awareness and support for her family's situation.
To support the Nelsons in their legal battle, visit www.gofundme.com/f/the-nelson... to donate.
Lastly, I admire Amy's courage in speaking openly and honestly about her experience. I hope this video helps raise awareness and support for her family.
Thank you for watching our video

All the while Bezos is on his yacht floating someone on the ocean, this family suffers for no reason. DISGUSTING! I wish the Nelson’s the very best.

Amy, I don’t know if you’ll ever read this and I struggle to comment as it’s not something I normally do. I woke up this morning with my life feeling as if it weighed a ton. Just spent, really feeling at a loss. I am a mother to a beautiful and very complex young man who was born with a multitude of disabilities. I am his 24/7 caregiver. Also my husband suffered a massive stroke 2+years ago. I am his 24/7 caregiver. Goes without saying I can get really run down at times. This wasn’t the life either myself or my husband planned on. This morning is one of those times I felt myself empty and at a loss for hope. But I want more for my family. I want to be afraid and to do it anyways. Whatever that means for the day. And sometimes, often times I feel very alone. However I am not. Thank you for sharing your life. It means something to someone you’ll never know or speak to. If only for today I do feel inspired and truly grateful. And where I come from that’s worth it’s weight in gold. I wish you and your family healing. God speed. Xoxo

Happy Mother's Day! I was thinking of others who are in caregiving situations today. (In the midst of feeling sorry for myself) I can also relate to the legal insanity that Amy Nelson is enduring. Thank you, both, for posting. It really helped me, today, too.

No matter how long I've been teaching and researching such issues, it never fails that my anxiety levels spike when seeing/discussing specific examples of abusive exercise of power. Same time, it's not at all surprising, sadly. Really happy the Nelson's fought it and are seemingly prevailing, despite the awful destruction that has already occurred. The fed's conviction rate that's north of 95% is largely because they amass so much evidence that the guilty cave. The innocent also often cave because accusations alone can break people's will, ntm most don't have the resources or knowledge and/or wherewithal to fight the machine (as WCA suggested, this is true for many affluent as well). Regardless, when the feds come knocking it can be ruinous even if it doesn't end with a conviction. I don't take issue with saying there are a lot of good people at the FBI/DOJ and/or at Amazon, since yes as Amy said, it is specific people leading the charge. But individual FBI/DOJ agents cannot willy nilly get warrants or seize bank accounts on their own without those up the food chain signing off. Likewise w/Amazon, which you have to believe is being signed off by folks at the highest levels of the company. So in both instances, it's entirely appropriate imo to "indict" the organizations and without qualification.

Wow!! Just wow! Came after Amy’s father not just her. And her losing second job is just shock. Then again seems typical from what I‘ve learned. I’ve never heard of their story before. What a brave and amazing lady! Intelligent and strong! I am almost afraid to comment because the govt and big tech do scare me tremendously with their power! I feel they are watching me just because of my husbands mistakes. But maybe Amy is right, being public is safer than staying hidden in the dark. I really have to rely on God to help fight the evil within people that go after other people in the justice system. Keep up the fight! 🙏🏻

And thank you for making me aware of this wanton abuse of power by AMZ/DOJ. I tossed her family… well attorney … some cash. My son did swim lessons at the same pool in her photo (the Ymca on Fauntleroy in west Seattle) .To think this could happen to one of the families in our swim class brings home how real this threat is. I don’t ever intend to work for Bezos, and need to make a stronger effort to stop shopping Amazon too.

A real time David and Goliath story…the only crime here is how both the feds and Amazon handled this situation through bullying and intimidation tactics. Seems to me, all funds confiscated, AND the out of pocket lawyer fees of this family should be restituted. This is truly a dark episode which exposes the underbelly of a system skewed heavily toward corporations with power resources and influence. If I were Amazon I would make the final charge go away rather than arbitrate it…the negative exposure to their inhumane practices behind the curtain will tarnish their carefully crafted brand promise. Also, I hope the family civilly sues…which Amazon will probably settle with them out of court… Amazon ruined this families reputation, which translates into difficulty getting future contracts

It makes me wonder about the lawyers and law enforcement officers in our government(s) who don't have the integrity to stand up to the Amazons of the world and just say to them: there is a rule of law and we won't violate it!

Also consider the millions upon millions of dollars Amazon receives from taxpayers in the form of tax abatements and other giveaways by governments. The amount likely totals in billions of dollars.

I'm guessing but I wonder if Amazon is trying to say the knowledge gained from Amazon by the husband generated this controversy. Tangling with Amazon and the feds is daunting.

This video was frustrating. The tik tok video started with 2 uses of "they", and while who "they" is is/was clear to the author, I spent minutes trying to play catch up. Amazon's business partner is opaque to me. Given the nature of their business, I was left wondering what exact role the developer played, with Amazon, (and why they wanted to exit, whatever it was) especially with Amazon's partner. I was playing catch up the whole time. We would have all benefited (me anyway) with some comprehensive backstory.

@WhiteCollarAdviceOfficial Жыл бұрын

Thank you for watching. The comprehensive video would take weeks, months. Our goal here was to provide an overview of how a large corporation can overreach, and how this family is responding to adversity. As you likely know, my company prepares defendants traversing the criminal justice system. When in investigation begins many defendants struggle to respond. This is one example of how a family is responding and I find it inspirational.

@gyroscopejones9217 Жыл бұрын

That contract sounds sus and this whole case sounds like something out of the 19th century debtors prison system. So, the only exit on it was for criminal conduct? Why any of the parties would agree to something like that is mind boggling. This is is why you gotta ask for things like force majeure and optionality because Amazon employees would definitely read that and say, "Oh, we need a felony? That can be arranged."

Amy why would your husband not sue the Amazon employees civically?

@amynelson1100 Жыл бұрын

Amazon needed to secure a felony conviction to justify a contract breach. After trying for six months to first obtain felony charges, Amazon then sued my husband in civil court for "racketeering" - trying to prove a criminal act in civil court. Last month, the judge threw out the claim in civil court before trial.

@craigallen5092 Жыл бұрын

I heard you say that on Justin’s video. Now Amazon has only 1 count left.

@amynelson1100 Жыл бұрын

@@craigallen5092 Right, which isn't "criminal" in nature - I think they were trying to use the civil suit to give a roadmap to prosecutors to try to get them to bring charges. Such a wild world. Amazon didn't have a lot of avenues in civil court because they did not LOSE any money - they GAINED money from the alleged crime.
