You should have stated... Richie wanted to come back but 'apparently' Jon wouldn't let him in reference to the interview he gave a year later.

I know I keep repeating this to you but STOP MAKING THINGS UP and drawing your own conclusions without either hard facts or stating that it is your own opinion.
