Legal team, we’re closing out our Love Is Blind series with a few more cast members who filed lawsuits against Netflix production. On the docket this week we’re discussing Renee Poche and Stephen Richardson’s alleged experiences being a part of Love Is Blind, and what they are claiming is unlawful about the way they were treated pre and post production.
