Oh, I'm sure that is not the case. Textor managed to get 116 million out of his various deals and this kind of pump and dump scheme, as far as the stock goes is quite common. The way it works is you buy short (you are betting on it going down) as well as selling the initial shares before the crash. Records show that Textor did, indeed exercise his options before the crash.
You can be sure that he is NOT hurting.
