Gene Maddaus Senior Media Writer David Ozer, the president of Strong Studios, has agreed to plead guilty to defrauding an investor in the TV show “Safehaven” out of $214,486.
Ozer has admitted to defrauding Ravenwood Productions by creating false invoices and a forged letter purportedly from his accountant in an effort to make expenditures appear legitimate, according to the plea agreement. “In reality, Ozer’s accountant did not write the letter, the contents of the letter were false, and Ozer used his accountant’s name without his accountant’s authorization,” the U.S.
Attorney’s Office in Los Angeles stated in a release. Under the plea agreement, Ozer agreed not to appeal if his prison sentence is less than 27 months.
Ozer previously worked at Sony, Starz and as president of IDW Entertainment. Ravenwood sued him in April for siphoning funds from the show to pay his personal expenses, including his mortgage.
