I don't know if I'm off base here but from my understanding of Maria's book, it sounded to me as if Freddie's friends including D.B. were trying to convince Freddie to stay with Jonas as a manager, saying he is a good man who will be good to you or something to that affect.
I wonder if Freddie had stayed with Jonas if Jonas would have been able to get him off the drugs he was already on and help him to avoid the others?
It sounds like I'm probably going to answer my own question here but, Freddie wanted to change managers because JOnas would not re-locate to La. and Freddie said himself he was new to hollywood and needed someone to guide him and Jonus wouldn't do it.BUT
If Jonas had realized the extent of Freddies fears and troubles would he have re-located and tried to help him?
So many questions no answers
