Jay & Ernestine Morrison Release a Formal Statement

There has been a recent blitz of false allegations and PAID ads against our family name and family group of companies. We refuse to entertain or tolerate online trolls who attempt to disparage us on “Instagram” and otherwise, because the allegations and ads are blatantly false.

We represent Black love, Black integrity, Black excellence and constantly strive to meet the utmost standards of professionalism. We will not feud or respond to false allegations and paid ads online in “Instagram Court” as that does not represent our values. We choose to lead by example and show our community how to properly address slander, lies, defamation and how to effectively defend your family name, reputation and seek redress.

Accordingly, to our attackers and accusers, you are now on official legal notice that we Will See You and Deal With You in REAL Court! We have run successful businesses for years and have a duty to the hundreds of thousands of our clients and supporters to handle these types of matters like seasoned and professional business men and women do in real life.

To our supporters and TREF Investors rest assured that we will continue to walk upright and proud and act with the same integrity and honesty as we always have. We are constantly working to create and achieve higher standards for us and our community. As you all know we are not strangers to public harassment and extreme ridicule, but we have always successfully braved the storms and we will continue to do so again. We must because the work we do is far greater than any of us.
