On October 4, 2019, Brian filed to run for Seminole County Tax Collector against Republican incumbent, Joel Greenberg. Soon after, anonymous letters received by his school accusing him of improprieties with a student emerged. Within a few weeks, an imposter Twitter account accused Brian of racism. Within another few weeks, a fake Facebook page accused him of the same improprieties found in the anonymous letters. On June 23, 2020, Joel Greenberg was arrested for committing crimes against Brian. On May 17, 2021, Joel Greenberg entered a guilty plea in U.S. Federal Court admitting to those crimes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p-1Dj3nLCO8
