RJ Mitte’s Missing ‘Breaking Bad’ Earnings Claims Get New Details From Police Complaint
Key Points:
- RJ Mitte accused his business manager, Lisa Harrison of Harrison Business Management, of mismanaging his "Breaking Bad" earnings, leading to financial losses; Mitte and his mother reported concerns to Santa Monica police in 2015, but no criminal charges were filed against Harrison.
- Financial issues surfaced when checks from Mitte's company, RFM3 Services, began bouncing, prompting police involvement; despite these troubles, Mitte was not involved in large cash withdrawals or investments beyond regular debit and credit card use.
- Mitte's family considered a civil lawsuit against Harrison but ultimately decided against it due to the potential cost and time, opting instead to hire new accountants to resolve tax liens totaling $330,000.
- Harrison faced a separate civil dispute in 2018 with another client alleging unauthorized withdrawals, which was settled through arbitration without findings of fraud; Harrison's husband denied any wrongdoing related to Mitte's case.
- RJ Mitte, known for his role as Walter White Jr. on "Breaking Bad" and as a disability rights advocate, died by suicide in October 2023 at age 34, with his financial struggles and personal challenges gaining renewed attention posthumously.
