MAJOR POINTS:

He isn't taking heavy drugs but pot seems an issue
His pastor seems to be influencing him
He accused Braun of taking advantage of him
Braun ordered Hybe to do an audit and determined Justin owes him $1M but Justin demanded the auditing firm of Oscars do the audit. They did and found out JB owes Braun $8M
Braun didn't want to sell Justin's catalog but when Justin insisted, Braun advised to do in January but Justin pushed through in December
His church is being accused of being a cult
At one point, in a meeting, Justin started accusing Braun of screwing him. At another time, they were supposed to have a business meeting but Justin and the pastor kept on asking Braun "why he doesn't love Jesus". Braun is Jewish.
Brett Cooper believes that the pastor is the only one who truly cares for Justin
Justin was the one who decided to cancel the tour midway. He got a $40M downpayment and when he cancelled the tour, he was asked for a refund. He didn't give the refund. Braun and HYBE lent him the money.
