Final nail in the coffin for Steven Seagal

Seriously whacky stuff.

Herbert F. Saunders, 71, a retired senior intelligence officer, who worked for Seagal a decade ago as a security consultant, recently came forward to reveal dirty deeds he says the actor wanted him to commit - like gaining access to confidential Drug Enforcement Administration files he believed were being collected to frame him.

Of course there is the CIA operative thing again …

First, the actor suggested to the veteran CIA official that he had worked for the agency - a ludicrous notion, according to Saunders, who had already checked him out and found he’d never worked there.

And there is more. LOL! What a clever setup by mr Seagal. A bit unimaginative from a “CIA operative” and also unnecessarily difficult to do.

… began complaining about Alan Richman, a journalist who had written an unflattering story about him in GQ magazine. For some reason, Seagal was convinced he was a “fag” - although Richman later denied it.

“He said he’d like to give Mr. Richman a bit of payback” - and then concocted a scheme to photograph him in the back seat of a car in a tryst with another man, Saunders said.

After Saunders turned down the assignment, Seagal hit him with an even darker one. Seagal said he was about to open a restaurant in Chicago, according to Saunders, but had a mortal enemy from his days in Southeast Asia, and he worried the man would assassinate him during the ribbon cutting.

Seagal was unimpressed when Saunders suggested a security plan and, according to Saunders, “He said, ‘You mean you wouldn’t whack him?’ ”

Kind of explains why he keeps doing all those awful movies.
