TMZ has reported that Billy McFarland will have to pay $2.8 million to an investment firm, EHL Funding that gave money to the creator of the Fyre Festival just three weeks before the event was to take place. McFarland didn’t respond to the lawsuit due to being locked up for a six-year wire fraud sentence. Ja Rule reached out to TMZ to clarify, saying that although he was named in the lawsuit he doesn’t have to pay back the money owed to EHL. After watching the Fyre Festival documentaries on Netflix and Hulu, what are your thoughts about Billy McFarland?
