Another One Bites the Dust


High flying music producer Scott Torch has been arrested for Grand Theft Auto for failing to return his Bentley GT. This incident follows the recent foreclosure of his $10 million mansion on an island off of Miami Beach.

At the end of the lease, Torch did not returned the car as agreed, but gave it to rapper Lil Kim. The car was eventually tracked down at her place in NJ.


Yet another example of money wasted on a fast lifestyle. In a 2006 Rolling Stone article titled "Scott Torch's Outrageous Fortune", Torch described his posh lifestyle and claimed to have a net worth of $70 million already. His career encompassed delivering hits for the likes of Beyonce, Dr. Dre, Lil Kim, Justin Timberlake, Fat Joe, Chris Brown and 50 cents. The notable holdings that the article mentioned were a bevy of luxury cars, a $20 million yacht, as well as wearing $3.5 million worth of jewelry in one outing.


Scott Torch is apparently in rehab at this time, by the way.
