I do remember that WADE did object to being "retired" even though MP bragged on him a lot on the then upkept website.
Also that Wade wanted some stuff outa the LAB that he claimed was his personal property.... it was a part of the arbitration settlement to let him haul it away, whatever it was.
So to the extent that scenario is real, it seems that WADE was denied access to the LAB. Maybe he had gotten too big for his britches, and expected to become CEO when MP finally left town, and MP wanted to appoint someone more loyal to himself like the one he did appoint.
Also I remember that WADE had made one or two posts to a forum
back when blame was flying around, SMA posts, and MP told him in affect, to shut his mouth. MP as a trained Lawyer and JURIS DOCTOR and as CEO demanded strict control over all public utterances regarding CDEX.
There is not much honor amongst thieves, so it can be expected that a power struggle or two will pop up along the way.
