American Apparel lost $27.6 million last year. More than one-third of that went towards making you-know-who go away forever.

Cash-strapped American Apparel spent $10.4 million on the internal investigation it conducted before firing its CEO Dov Charney last year, according to a company filing.
That's a lot of money for a company that reported a $27.6 million loss and ended 2014 with only $8.3 million in cash.

Suddenly Dov Charney isn't so bad...

If he can’t have it, no one can.

Whatever doesn't kill a Dov Charney makes him stronger.

His thing being stuff like "Trespassing on company property and threatening employees who do not support his return by taking their photos and promising to fire them once he returns."

He's been taking meetings.

The man's a lot of things, but he ain't a quitter.

He'd also like to be CEO again, but one thing at a time.
