I am Damon Gibson, owner and publisher of The Enthusiast magazine. While Sharat Camacho and I have had our differences, and I do not even know David Le, the slander posted here is believed to be the work of a mentally unstable woman named Chelle Yarbrough, who contracted to do work for my magazine over a year ago and has carried on this campaign of slander against me and just about everyone who has been associated with my magazine.
Ms. Yarbrough has made these posts using various fictional identities, and is apparently upset about my not paying her for work she never did, and for writing work she submitted to my magazine that was of the level of a 10 year old.
What is scary about her is that she is somehow involved with the Seaside Charter School on Padre Island, and is exposed to children on a daily basis.
I have openly welcomed her to sue to me in a court of law where all of her grievences, and my case can be heard. Instead she has chosen to slander me, Sharat, Mr. Le, and Sushi Bar -- none of which are affiliated with me in any way whatsoever.
It should be stated that Sharat, to the best of my knowledge, has never been a drug user and only did very good work for me, for which he was paid well. I do not even know Mr. Le and I have eaten in his restaurant once when it opened.
My business partner and I have decided to pursue a lawsuit against Mr. Yarbrough, who is in serious need of a mental evaluation. Mr. Camacho and Mr. Le are honest, hardworking business people as far as I know, and really have nothing to do with this.
This claim of video tapes, etc., are ridiculous and I consider this web site quite irresponsible to allow the posting of such slanderous fiction.
Unlike the crazy liar, Chelle Yarbrough, and like Mr. Le, I am happy to post my phone number and email for anyone concerned about this nonsense: publisher@txenthusiast.com and 361-232-1896.
