Thank you for pointing this out. I just want to move on and focus on my new project, and not waste the next two years fighting in court over a botched acquisition. A civil lawsuit is expensive. Expect to pay $200,000 or more, and to age about ten years and/or develop serious health problems from the process of dealing with people you'd prefer to throw under a bus. The main reason I went public was so that other entrepreneurs won't make the same mistakes I did. It's no fun to admit that you got taken, but at least others can learn from it.

Given the evidence you have, you may be able to find a lawyer who will work pro bono. Given that they've done to you, the settlement might be never work again type money. At least spend some time checking into it. By blogging you're opening yourself up to lawsuits. Now you'll be spending the same legal fees but with the good result being $0. You're absolutely insane not to sue if half of what you say is true.

  If you can't find pro bono, I think you'd definitely be able to find an attorney who would just work for 33% (or whatever) of the settlement. No cost up front.
