Kyron Horman Missing: New Years Eve Settlement Ends Horman Marriage

Portland, OR- In a surprise court hearing,  Judge Henry Kantor signed off on the agreement between Kaine Horman and Terri Moulton Horman to end their marriage this afternoon.

Details of the agreement have not been released publicly, but according to KGW,  a financial settlement to include child support and a lump payment to Terri Horman has been reached.

In what can only be described as a bitter family court feud-  the divorce matter was last in court on December 16th to decide if the Horman landscaper,  Rodolfo Sanchez Estrada -who alleges Terri Horman tried to hire him to murder Kaine Horman at a lunch meeting – would testify.

Judge Kantor has not yet filed an order from that hearing but Attorneys for Terri Horman were granted a continuance from the pending temporary custody motion scheduled for December 19th and 20th.

    I thought that was what M Heron, SAR co-Dir and current Kyron lead, did tho?

    Yes, but he was not then, and to my knowledge, not active investigator would be SAR lead ( in a recovery search) to maintain the integrity of any findings and subsequent chain of custody of any evidence found. This would be protocol to eliminate the “planted evidence argument. I say this is protocol, but in reality, I do not know if MCSO follows this “best practice” -

    The additional corrections deputies are to alleviate all the budget-busting overtime for corrections shifts because the can’t hire them fast enough and stays understaffed. (I bet he has high workmans’ disabilities claims feeding his personnel shortages too.) Also, part of the hiring slowness has been the background checks, so yes I’m pretty sure that’s what those hires are to do.

    The budget says to me (especially the long & short term issues) that this is a County Corrections Dept that does a couple other things on the side: SAR very well and river patrol probably with huge holes. Investigations has little backing.

    Kafoury et al needs to establish a single mission County Corrections Bureau to contol the budget and run the jails.
    Then break the Sheriff down to 2 Depts: 1) Law Enforcement and Investigations, 2) River Patrol and SAR. And stop the automatic deputy rotation between the 2. when job opening arise, let internal & external candidates apply. Yes, this is highly political, but if Staton & his Captns didn’t lead the breakup & reorg, they could be told the Council would be sure effective, endorsed candidates would run against them for life. I doubt the Unions would fight it as long as the reorg had as many or more jobs, and a few more at the top, in a net Union win.

    Kafoury however seems like the rest of them to myopically follow her pet interests only.

    The time is politically ripe tho for such a reorg of County Depts.

    This detailed Annual Report makes Staton’s powerpoint look like an illiterate insult to Mult Cty Commissioners. I especially like the detail of the Staff training section.

    When a County has the Sheriff workload challenges of Mult’s River and SAR, it seems sensible to have a separate Corrections Bureau staffed by a Commissioner and Corrections Officers (who are le).

    My opinion/guess is Kaine/Desiree’s lack of any interaction in fall 2010ff postabduction
    mirrored the same interpersonal “cutoff” preabduction. Imo they triangled Terri in as
    the fulltime gobetween.
    She is still the gobetween, the Bridge to Kyron. Kaine put
    her in this position imo, fed her to Desiree in July 2010.

  9. A Texas Grandfather says:

    Malty

    I believe the answer to your question is simple. The parents do not make the rational parenting decisions because they do not realize that parenting often means giving up your time and desires for the benefit of the child or children.

    These children are left in a hot car because the parent does not want to give up their time or their agenda. Therefore, they take them to a store parking lot and lock them in. With the majority of vehicles sold today having electric windows, the children cannot roll the window down. The child is perhaps safe from physical harm of persons who might see them alone, but the heat is the enemy when zero air can get into the vehicle.

    Cars and buildings when I was a child did not have air conditioning. Parents could take the child shopping and leave them in the car without fear of someone harming them. Windows were left down and doors could be unlocked for exit if necessary.

    Yesterday, I got in my truck to drive to town. It had been sitting in the driveway for hours with the temperature at 95 degrees. The steering wheel was so hot it took several minutes for it to cool enough for me to comfortably touch it.

    Once it was possible to leave children with family because they were living close by. Today, that is often difficult or impossible.

    I think some people are too selfish to be good parents. They simply have not matured enough to make good parenting decisions.

    I guess about now — well, make that 4 years ago — I would feel more comfortable about this investigation into Kyron’s disappearance if the skeletons in DY’s and KH’s closets were exposed for all to see. So far, I heard how TMH’s former in-laws thought it was extravagant or phony for TMH to give them flowers; I’ve heard that TMH was a strict mother with Kyron at times; I’ve heard that TMH went to the gym all the time; I’ve heard that she was grouchy and snappy while losing weight for a competition; I’ve heard that a roommate got pissed at her for moving furniture outside and leaving it there; I’ve heard that she has that DUI.

    She sounds so awful (snark insert).

    Soooooo…..DY? KH? Input? You guys are, er, perfect? You never met any sketchy peeps? You didn’t make anybody in your life angry? Your in-laws absolutely adored you 24/7? No vices? No naughties?

  12. erose says:

    Malty, I agree that Kyron would probably be thin.

  13. Rose says:

    Reading OLive stories about unsupervised endangered kids, you begin to realize available abductable kids are so plentiful, to have taken one from a school as SZ did means Kyron was the specific target, or that the Planning, Preparation, School Setting, Witnesses (public nature) were all part of the high for SZ. I lean less to specific target as there were more opportune places to take Kyron specifically.

  14. Rose says:

    I picked up this story from People:
    http://crimefeed.com/2014/07/15-year-old-escapes-abduction-attempt-uses-moves-dad-taught/
    has a very large online presence, gamer, pics. So I wonder if this was a man in his gaming communities who
    researched him on line. And I wonder if Hormans were among the most active online
    gamers (WoW types)and kid pic posters online among Skyline parents.
    reminding me the 1,000 pics of kyron (& kiara) entered
    the public domain via someone in the family.
    really shocking to see Soldier put baby k pic up even yet.

    TKG, yesterday’s Kyron pic there reminded me of 1 other of his
    and in both he does favor Quinn, looking thinner, more lean, as you
    suggest. I suppose there is a reason his parents don’t get an LE age

    ___________________
    Hi Malty. Hi everyone. I just wanted to comment on this. Not so many years ago as a full-time working mom, with a hubby that frequently traveled, I was very overburdened and began suffering from severe anxiety and some depression. THANKFULLY, and by the grace of God, I never left any kids in a hot car, but I can see how it can happen. (I did once leave a kid behind at soccer practice, and she wasn’t mine!!) Parents are often over-stressed, over tired and scattered. I admit that I was often in such a state that I believe that I could have done something similar, of course unintentioanlly. It is tragic and I feel nothing but compassion for those who lose their children this horrific way, unless of course it is done intentionally. THAT is my fear – that some of these cases are intentional and copy-cats. God bless the children and parents who suffer through something like this when it is nothing but a tragic mistake.

    It has to be posted in the court house, and if her no contact civil is considered same as an interested party, then they were advised. Actually, I am surprised it took this long for someone to notice. TMH would know that it would generate news.

    I have no idea why Detective Gosson was pulled from Kyron’s case and I have no idea how Deputy Heron, who was SAR leader on the day Kyron disappeared became lead in this case. But, I thought I’d just throw this old information out there for ya:

    7 p.m. Multnomah County sheriff’s Detective Sergeant Lee Gosson alerts Sgt. Travis Gullberg, the county’s on-call coordinator for search-and-rescue efforts, of the need to begin a formal missing persons search for Kyron.

    Between 7 and 7:15 p.m. The Multnomah County Public Information Officer begins to return pages from members of the media and arranges to meet them at the school.

    Between 7 and 7:45 p.m. Sheriff Dan Staton personally calls the FBI to alert them to the disappearance.

    8:09 p.m. The first search teams arrive at Skyline School.

    8:15 p.m. Lt. Mary Lindstrand, the PIO, arrives at the school, meets with those present, and then begins e-mailing a photo of Kyron to local television stations and The Oregonian.

    8:25 p.m. The search-and-rescue coordinator, Deputy Mark Herron, arrives.

    http://www.oregonlive.com/portland/index.ssf/2010/06/kyron_horman_chronology_of_eve.html

    The Multnomah County Sheriff’s Office would also like to announce that a press conference is scheduled for Tuesday July 27, 2010 at the Hanson Building located at 12240 NE Glisan Portland, Oregon. The exact time for this press conference will be announced by Friday July 23, 2010.
    Present at this conference will be Chief Deputy Tim Moore and Lead Investigator of the Kyron case Sgt. Lee Gosson. The purpose of this press conference will be to provide an update of the case and respond to questions that were submitted regarding the case.

    http://scaredmonkeys.net/index.php?topic=8288.140;wap2

    Is it possible Gosson was responsible for the failed sting? Or did he disagree with it? He did not appear at the above presser. IIRC this is where Bobby O took over, ??

    Why didn’t one reporter ask MCSO why there was a change in the lead detective in this case?

    RE: DY’s newest comment on FB. Apparently DY doesn’t think Dede was granted immunity and did not go before the GJ and tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth?
    —————
    DY touts the LDT results as proof of TH’s guilt and her, Tony and Kaines innocence all the time. and remember LE has never said that Kaine, DY and TY passed the polygraph either. We have only their word for it.

    Ok lets see here

    LDT says DY is innocent of any wrong doing in Kyrons disappearance (accurate)
    LDT says TY is innocent of any wrong doing in Kyrons disappearance (accurate)
    LDT says Kaine is innocent of any wrong doing in Kyrons disappearance (accurate)
    LDT results were not positive toward TH’s innocence (accurate)
    LDT results say DeDe says she is innocent of any wrong doing in Kyrons disappearance (NOW the test is NOT accurate)

    Does DY think that LE used their polygraph machine to many times that so now it is broken.

    I guess that in the Desiree world any thing that does not agree with her personal theories about Kyron are auto-magically wrong.

  26. Rose says:

    @TRuth
    A prescient & masterful article by Pitkin who imo nails detail.
    http://www.wweek.com/portland/mobile/articles/articleView/id:12305/current_page:

    Fri timeline: In retrospect, the mcso deputies Staton called out were SAR, led by Herron, not MP felony suspicion investigators nor a call to
    CPSD. (Which would have been DDA Woods’ CAU team including B O’Donnell.)

    Staton imo should have called CPSD that evening for a missing & endangered child.

    So, imo Staton in retrospect called the FBI not because this was a missing child, but because he had no MP suspicious disappearance investigators and for some political reason did not want to reach out to PPB or the State Police to lead the disappearance investigation.

    Gossom was still in charge on Aug 4 per Pitkin, tho silent. So O’Donnell at the time of the Sting, and his briefings of Kaine for the purpose of divorce with RO, was supervised by Gossom.

    Pitkin also has an astute observation:

    “County Sheriff Dan Staton’s shop is ***nominally ***in charge of the investigation,”

    Pitkin makes it clear the investigative steerer is FRINK. that Staton was “nominal.”

    Pitkin goes to the heart of the matter, like Blink, about understand the abduction:

    ” The attempt to do so leads us into some very dark places”

    The odd thing is how someone as bright as Kaine (although he seems a concrete, inflexible thinker imo) could sign off on this investigation the first night & following. You’d think he’d be jumping up and down screaming for PPB, who actually had legal jurisdiction. All I can think of is Staton placated him with “we’ve called the FBI.” But, victim profiling is not Investigation. I think Kaine must’ve had a provincial pov of trusting authority initially, then mcso became a necessity in custody & asset preservation.

    Precisely why nobody is saying so- but I believe Pritkin was retained in this case.

    Claire Sullivan – 6th row on right

  29. T. Ruth says:

    Interesting to me is that all these deputies were pulling overtime on Kyron’s case in the first month, but Heron is not listed, nor is Ned Walls, two who are on the case now. (Or were if it’s not been classified as cold.) Also, the first month of Kyron’s case was when all the searches were being done. This really makes me wonder if there was some sort of conflict of interest which took Gosson and maybe others off the case. Would be interesting to know what exactly all these folks were doing that created all the overtime. Were they all going through the tip binders, or were they investigating TMH? How many tips were submitted in month one?

    http://victoriataftkpam.blogspot.com/2010/12/mccain-kyron-kops-confident-yet.html

    Sgt. Diana Olsen – $17, 390.00
    Deputy Lee Gosson – $16,966.00
    Deputy Kevin Jones – $15,784.50
    Deputy Joshua Zwick – $14,949.50
    Deputy Bobby O’Donnell – $14,035.00
    Deputy Jonathan Zwick – $13,144.50
    Deputy Sean Mallory – $11,263.00
    Deputy Daniel Rendon – $10,930.00
    Deputy Lars Snitker – $10, 190.00
    Deputy Matthew Ferguson – $10,155.50
    Deputy Timothy Wonacott – $10,013.00

    But the grand prize for overtime in June 2010 goes to Sgt. Jan Kubic, who was paid $18,164.50 in total overtime compensation for the month, on top of a total annual compensation package of $146,842. These staggering numbers for June alone only list those earning more than $10,000 in overtime for the month of June 2010. The total Kyron Horman overtime costs to taxpayers for June alone was $335,908.98. And these figures are only for the Sheriff’s Office – they do not include the district attorney or other federal, state and local agencies who contributed resources to the search for Kyron.

    There are others missing from that list- the deputy ( now head of corrections) and certainly Keith Kravfe.

    TR, I dont know either

    but if shes anything like how Blink described her friend De De (I found her extremely bright, animated and witty, with a charmingly confident , and self-deprecating sense of expression.) She may have chose it because of a sense of humor and a stick it to em attitude and as a a sort of caution to herself…

    For
    There is a young pretty red headed comedian named CS whose show is entitled Claire Sullivan Vs the World which might encapsulate TH feelings up till now

    see here:
    http://www.heckler.com.au/2014/04/04/review-claire-sullivan-vs-the-world/

    and TH may see herself as the comedienne is described:

    “Claire has a bright future and a flair for the off-beat, bizarre, and downright outrageous”

    and then we have STELLA!!!!

    which for most brings to Mind “A street Car Named Desire”

    With Stanley screaming Stella Hey Stella

    snip-wiki page-
    Stanley described as:
    He is a force of nature: primal, rough-hewn, brutish and sensual, who dominates Stella in every way, including physical and emotional abuse. When they fight she runs upstairs to the neighbors but she always comes back to him.

    and Stellas response:
    she vows that she is never going back to Stanley, and runs upstairs again, with their baby, to seek refuge with her neighbors.

    So the choice could be to remind herself not to marry another Stanley… not be Stella..unless to be strong and determined like Stella seems to be at the end…

    Reminds her not to be a Blanche(SK sister),relys too much on beuty fades with age.. hidden alcoholic with delusions of grandeur who Stanley sets out to discover the truth about embellished tales, and cruelly confronts her after he learns what happened. He ridicules her marriage, her string of affairs with young men and students, and her conduct in the loss of the plantation- he rapes her she has a nervous breakdown and he has her committed…

    — But all that is way out there…

    So

    TH probably just chose that name because she liked it and wanted to be free of TLMH.

    Maybe we’ve been looking at the wrong gangs.

    December 2013′s bust was huge:

    http://www.oregonlive.com/portland/index.ssf/2013/12/operation_white_christmas_targ.html
    (snipped)

    “They’re operating out here, and we ran across them,” said sheriff’s Sgt. Jan Kubic, the unit’s supervisor. “Everyone’s got limited resources. These guys bubbled up, and it was their turn.”

    The gangs were largely involved in violence against their own members, with robberies and home invasions or kidnapping and assaults to intimidate witnesses. But their members also were enmeshed in methamphetamine dealing, firearms trafficking, identity theft, car thefts and even theft of high-end bicycles and musical instruments, authorities said.

    I believe she is working towards protecting her young innocent daughter, and not playing games like the bios did with the Kyron case. I’m sure the names have special meaning to her and maybe her children.

    I think it’s highly unethical that the tawdry media has posted this information about a private citizen who has not been even named a POI or suspect in ANY case and who is the target of a very dangerous stalking machine on social networks (tho not surprised it was leaked to the Medford reporter first). It was not lost on me the OLive journalists got a soundbite from Desiree either. I did notice that Kaine wisely is abiding by the ‘legal restraint’ and replied ‘no comment’ to a request for statement.

    The only path I see Terri/Claire taking is that she has been fighting FOR her children since the moment she realized Kyron disappeared. Once she realized she could not protect her own daughter from the LE led games, she had to consider her legal options. I think this name change is related to that as well.

    Respectfully, I think TMH is better represented and more savvy than you are giving her credit for.

    I hope you are right, but I still think she is doing the name change for her daughter’s sake. I hope we find out one day…

    Can’t imagine this name change is due to birth family issues. That would be a slap in the face to the Moultons who have been steadfast parents and supporters.

    Hello Blink thank you for sharing yr further thoughts with me
    I check in often but have been unable to write till today- I apologize for not getting back to you sooner.

    snip-

    I wrote in part:
    Does any connection found automatically = a nefarious link to the disappearance?

    Does the task force and the FBIs willingness/thoroughness to review/investigate those on the list in any way eliminate any possible answer to the why and the who of Kys disappearance?

    Does the task force and the FBIs willingness/thoroughness to review/investigate others to include those on the list mean they thought those on the list were involved or guilty ?

    Does the task force and the FBIs willingness/thoroughness to review/investigate others to include those on the list have to mean they believe TH is innocent of any and all involvement?

    to which you responded:

    Well it definitely confirms that they were and are aware of the male SZ.
    B

    I would hope that they followed up on and were long aware of every witness account such as the witness accounts which spoke of the possible “creepy man” and the other account which seemed to place Kyron or a boy who resembled him next to a white truck along side a female and one or two males- in addition to the SZ witness accounts featured by you which stated in summation:

    snip-

    “…He must have been standing behind me because I only recall hearing him ask if the boy could help him bring some stuff in from his truck. I thought it was (edited) until he looked up at him and then he looked at Ms. Matthews for approval and she nodded her head yes in response. They walked out of the South entrance together and I do not recall seeing either of them again.

    — Blink I certainly can agree that the interview of all males on the list confirms that the FBI and the task force were aware of these accounts and the importance of following up on them – ( who knows if they did and they were ruled out)

    and I can agree that this awareness may open up the very real possibility that there was a SZ involved in the disappearance of KY
    and I agree that the possibility exists that the FBI and LE have long since moved away from believing TH was involved…

    But none of us can know which possibility is true-

    to include the possibility of a SZ which does not have to rule TH out of all involvement

    You asked:

    but if everyone is so convinced that TMH is involved, why did the task force and FBI investigate every male on the list?


    How does the task force and the FBI investigating all males on the list = TH is not involved? Without knowing who SZ is- how can anyone rule out or rule in any involvement with or connection to TH?

    How can anyone be convinced of anything in this case? Whether they be the FBI DY or any witness or member of the public at large -regardless if they/we are convinced of her involvement or lack of-
    the truth is none of us can say definitely she was involved or definitely she wasnt…

    Blink, By cat and mouse, do you think the same Claire Sullivan is significant to the investigation or would any name do?

    I think that TMH had a calculated reason for a name change, knew that someone would probably leak it, and can start over with anyone defaming her or any other sort of harassment. She will be able to change her name, imo, but if the hater crater thinks they should show up at the hearing I can promise you that nonsense will start the record so to speak. TMH has never spoken to the media, has never published anything online in her name on any issues relevant to Kyron’s disappearance- she can never be considered “a public person”.

    D. Kim Rossmo is a Canadian criminologist who specializes in geographic profiling and the author of Criminal Investigative Failures

    His thoughts…

    “What we remember depends on what we believe.”
    and
    If you look hard enough, you can usually find some sort of connection.”

    and

    “New information becomes assimilated with old information,”

    I think these quotes may very well define this case and others thoughts whether they be DY and others being convinced of THs involvement or De Des lying/involvement
    or whether they are LE and the y are convinced Th is the culprit despite an investigation which MIGHT be skewed by bias and tunnel vision etc

    and for those who are convinced of Ths innocence and or LEs ineptitude a cover-up or of RS lying of Kaines guilt or involvement and so on

    Are we all fooling ourselves…

    —I stumbled upon this blog which goes into better detail about the book about the failures and the biases- Im gonna pick it up Yr probably already aware of the info Blink, but just wanted to share

    http://www.truecrimediary.com/index.cfm?page=cases&id=226

    snip:

    “What we remember depends on what we believe.” …. helps explain why the retired detective and the victim I interviewed have such different memories of the same exchange that happened 30 years ago. Police reports, with their terse formatting and signatures at the bottom, can mislead readers into believing the content is unadorned, a clean, objective reproduction of an incident. But that’s far from true. They are interpretations, and as such are vulnerable to a vast array of influences: experience and expectation; sleep deprivation and hunger; bias. The victim remembers that after a vicious nighttime attack she was left speechless from shock. The detective’s perception, noted in his report, is that she’s a “cool customer” and “blank-faced.” Mute anguish read as nonchalance.

    If pressed, the retired detective would likely stand by his interpretation.
    Belief perseverance, as Rossmo calls it, is a common pitfall in criminal investigations. “New information becomes assimilated with old information,” he writes of memory, “and the old information has more influence on the new information than vice versa.” First impressions, and the theories that result from them, calcify over time.

    …Another Rossmo sentence that resonates: “If you look hard enough, you can usually find some sort of connection.” He quotes a Midwestern detective pursuing a serial rapist for many years as half-joking that he could have convicted three people if it were not for DNA. The wider the field of suspects the greater the chance that at least a few are going to look guilty, either by being at the wrong place at the wrong time, or sharing similar traits or connections as the real offender.

    end snip

    -Interesting to ponder over So many pitfalls to avoid- and it brings a new perspective whether youre thinking about LE failing KY TH and family or wther youre thinking of Ths hiring of HOB or Dy being convinced or whomever.

    The mind and good intentions can wrk against us- I get it Blink

    AJMO Peace

    Correct, and I am a fan of Dr. Rossmo. It epitomizes much of what has occurred in this case, imo, starting with investigators without the proper training or experience.

    sigh time for bed

    Im starting to think this is all a joke TH is playing ..that she has no intention of changing her name only that she wants to illustrate the medias and the publics AND Dys appetite or propensity to well follow her… to not allow her the freedom to just be.

    I did not catch the first news item in Douglas Cty was Medford media, suggesting who the tipping “Officials” is. Desiree has consistently represented (lastly after the People article) that she and her husband are joined at the hip.

    Since the object of a no civil contact would have been noticed, imo someone in that object’s communications circles overlaps with Medford sources circle and passed it on.

    TKG is on target here imo
    “Terri Horman stepped in and raised Kyron Horman, when Desiree Young gallivanted off to another country.

    Terri Horman attended school functions, and sporting practices/events with Kyron Horman, when Desiree Young had other things more important to do 5 hours away.

    Terri Horman fed, clothed, educated, nurtured and photographed Kyron Horman and posted hundreds of pictures so Desiree Young could see how proud she was of THEIR son, only to have Desiree Young incite hatred on those same social network sites, using those same photos.

    Terri Horman willingly transported both of Desiree Young’s sons hundreds of miles to visitation for years, even tho Desiree Young didn’t bother to attend all of her allotted visits.

    Terri Horman has taken the high road in EVERY instance when dealing with Desiree Young. …

    At some point, Desiree Young needs to understand that everyone sees her for what she has created – a stalking gang of societal misfits that has kept throngs of people from caring about advocating for Kyron, due to the hate that surrounds anyone who refused to jump on the ‘attack Terri Horman’ bandwagon.”

    wrt name change,
    People entering new professions change names all the time, not just acting or performance. Those wanting to blend in, be mainstream. Brokers, lawyers, businessmen. Look at Woody Allen, Don Sterling. US immigrants did and do too….from Europe in the 30s, 40s, & other countries now. To disguise ethnicity, or roots, or project an image.

    I think if Desiree & Kaine had not driven Terri into the ground, she would’ve led being on Frink & MCSO’s case in the media & this case would have been solved. Imo they disabled the only effective family advocate for Kyron.

    “MajorMoxie 7 hours ago
    Terri was too weird at the grocery store that day, shoving her pictures of Kyron into people’s faces, like look, see, not me! 2 obvious.”

    “peoples’ faces?” There was one person, a neighborhood (gym) face.

    I saw this show-the-pics-from-phone thing happen at Whole Foods between 2 customers who were distant acquaintances while awaiting an order. Some economic strata just have the cell tools & flaunt them. And mothers at home have little else to do but take child pics while on their “job.”

    typical Soldier FB postings:
    “Teri Kay Reeder
    Tell everyone her new name.
    Make sure it follows her in her new life.

    Forward her new name to different random pages.
    Don’t give her peace.

    At this point, to protect society from vigilantism, avert potential violence, and protect the public from questionable fundraising, DOJ needs to investigate
    wrt federal charges Co-conspirators to include those soliciting & fomenting public violence by media statements & privately-run websites & media vehicles, and raising money to fund the conspiracy.

    This case has the same hate speech & money elements as ER’s Metzger case.

    Might even lead to cleaning up local le & da.

    At a minimum, imo coconspirators are DY, sister thru whose fingers the money flows, and the owner/publisher of the most virulent Anti FB sites who coincidently is DY & sister’s fundraising organizer. This case is so like Morris Dees’ (& assoc in OR ER’s) Klan hate speech cases. And Dees knew, turn off the money inflow, take the money by judgment, and you turn the hate speech off.

    This is nothing more than a hate speech case for Federal court.

  50. erose says:

    According to this article, DY does not blessings of investigators in her efforts top put pressure on TH. I wonder if the “investigative techniques” (ie., failed polys, timeline pings, the sting) originally used to try to get TH to confess have been abandoned by LE (but have waited to long to pursue other leads), and DY is the only one involved still convinced that is where the truth is.
