== Allegation Giuliano is in hiding in Thailand ==

There's an line in the current version that says Giuliano is in hiding for doing dirty deeds to Yoko Ono and Pete Townshend. It isn't properly sourced, and the link it leads to is some stuff that has nothing to do with it, but that makes other, more horrendous allegations.

Here is the background. Giuliano did apparently once tell a reporter from a now-defunct Canadian alternative newspaper that he "stole a tape" from Pete Townshend. I had information about this entered in the article at one time, but it's been removed - probably because the overall tone of the article was so negative at that time. But, in all fairness, I've never seen any suggestion that Townshend is "pursuing" him, and that goes back a long way, when Townshend hired Giuliano to work on some kind of "street theater" project, probably early 70's. There have been other allegations, and there is one in the link, that he has amassed some of his Beatles collection by "borrowing," and not returning. But the statement that's in the article right now is not addressing that.

As to Yoko Ono - that's a little more solid, because he apparently represented himself as a "middleman" for sale of Wedding Photos. You can read about that in the entry I've added. Is Ono "pursuing" him? Maybe she should, because he says not-so-nice things about her whenever he gets a chance. But - there's no evidence that's surfaced in the press that she is. The only evidence she might be after him now is circumstantial. Giulano left for Thailand after she issued a subpoena about sources he'd used to write his book about Lennon - the one that was purportedly based on Lennon's stolen journals. Whether she would continue to look into this if he returned to the U.S. - that's another question. But how can she pursue him when he's living in Thailand?

Any thoughts on this, anyone? As I understand wiki, the statement I refer to should be removed. Maybe others should be reinstated - but that one should certainly be removed, correct?
