Tim Draper is a Silicon Valley VC with a track record.
He was apparently an accessory to his daughter's best friend ripping off billions of dollars in investor money based entirely on hype and insiderism, descending into a scandal currently under federal investigation. In Silicon Valley.
Page Mill Road to be specific.
Getting op-eds placed in the NYT isn't going to take the stink off this one. Though I am sympathetic to the instinct to try.
