Mrs. Hoge received the following email. Note that it has a bogus return address. The headers show that it was sent via a remailer service.

WJJ Hoge of Westminster, a man who claims to be a minister, is waging a petty war against a Parkinsons sufferer. Why? Because they dislike one another. Mr. Hoge has admitted ownership of the content attached in the link below. It is filthy and meant only to emotionally harm his “enemy” and nothing more.
One other time Mr. Hoge was angered, he created this online movement meant to harrass local officials:

This man claims to be doing the lord’s work, believes he is standing up for Jesus. In truth, he is a bully, a hypocrite and someone who can only create walls and vitriol. Online harassment is something we take seriously when it involves children, but we ignore it when it comes to disabled adults. Is this what Maryland has become?
His wife, Connie, is a member of the Forestry Board and, therefore, a public figure.
Mrs. Hoge forwarded this message to me, and it popped up on my iPhone while I was at a Candidates’ Forum being held in the studios of our local public access cable station. There were two panels that night. The first was the candidates for Sheriff. The second was the candidates for State’s Attorney.
Sometimes it’s good to be able to share things with your neighbors.
UPDATE—The Cabin Boy™ says he didn’t send the email.
The email refers to “what has been sent to Sheriff’s office,” but the complaint Schmalfeldt filed is timestamped 18:00 on 30 April, and the headers for the email show a timestamp of “30 Apr 2014 17:48:48.” (See the comment section below.). Now, who other than the Cabin Boy™ would have been aware of the contents of the complaint to the Sheriff 11 minutes before it was filed?
Hmmmmm.
Hear hear.
Cabin Boy really, really wants to go to jail. Its the only logical conclusion.
Certainly by now the deserved one.
Where he can achieve his highest level of recognition……as a martyr!!!
Oh SNAP! That’s gonna hurt come morning.
No, no, no…you don’t understand. This is what WINNING!!! looks like in Wisconsin.
Broken link and all.
Gmail ALSO records all MAC Addresses every email originates from. The sender is known to Google by their “physical address”, the unique identifier of every piece of electronics capable of accesing the internet. This identifier cannot be hidden by using TOR, a remailer service, an off-shore account or service provider. It uniquely identifies the device itself not software or anything else. Unplug your lartop, carry it to the Gobi desert and plug a local dial up modem into it. TA-DAA still broadcasts the same unique ID.
Some people are just that stupid. They just cannot control themselves.
Silly physical address thing again, Paul.
Don’t you know the all knowing and powerful OOZE isn’t bound by such certainties??
Heh. Physical realities shall soon disabuse Bill of that belief. He has not an idea of what physical agony really is. To be transported across this vast country as a prisoner bt the Marshal’s Service is not something I would wish on my most deserving enemy and Bill is no where near that list …
Gmail.com, I am sure does what you are suggesting.
gmail.comd is probably fake.
I hope if Mr. Schmalfeldt sent this he gets what is coming to him. Does the peace order extend to your family members as well? Hopefully it does.
People who harass their “enemies” spouses are beneath contempt. I doubt this rises to the level of criminal behavior (unless prohibited by the peace order), but this sort of behavior is shameful. I hope Mrs. Hoge doesn’t care about the opinions of anonymous jerks.
To a certain degree, this is incorrect.
First, a PC’s MAC address (even if cloned to a cable modem) will not ever be broadcast beyond the first piece of ISP owned gear. Now, if Google (do no evil) wanted to say, run a little bit snooping script, they could certainly get the MAC address of your PC. But that’d be evil and, supposedly, Google doesn’t do that.
Second, it is trivial to spoof an IP address which is why running a wi-fi router with certain encryption protocols enabled is like handing a robber the keys to your house. Like, you know the guy is a robber because you just saw him get out of prison for robbery and you still hand him your keys.
Should be “it is trivial to spoof a MAC address”.
Ever utilize Google analytics? The paid service, that is. MAC address of every computing and/or internet capable devices MAC address is recorded as are over 100 machine specific data points (language, browser, OS version, speed, screen resolution, presence of a web cam and microphone, etc). Google analitics also tracks how many times a specific MAC address visits as well as tracking changes to the visitors hardware/software config, changing IP’s and user ID’s … ALL that is collected by Google and provided to paying clients to track and analyze web traffic.
It would be interesting to see the email headers, the initial ISP info could very well be in there. Tools to spoof (and to unspoof that spoof) are available, for a price. Someone like Bill would have a very limited knowledge about them and it’s doubtful he has the money for them. The rapidity with which tools are created to hide and more tools are developed to reveal is astounding and is an esoteric niche market. Most remailers (and even TOR) are 2-3 steps behind this trend and is the primary reason consultants in this market are demanding (and getting) $300+ an hour for consultation work. Few (outside billionaires and criminal organizations) can afford this.
We agree that MAC address can be discovered beyond the local domain. But not as a result of normal network traffic in itself. At some point a script must be involved. The fact remains that it is trivial to change a MAC address.
Gonna have to agree — the MAC might get included as part of a transaction, but as such is vulnerable to being spoofed. Layer 2 encapsulation gets stripped off the datagram at the first layer 3 hop on the path towards the destination.
OK, my commenting ID appears to be all screwed up.
It wasn’t really Gmail, though.
Scumbag is going after Hoge’s family again. They know they are evil and roll around in it giggling.
Of course not it was Anonymousemail. I am simply pointing out that Google (and it’s products) do make it possible to know these things. Yes, MAC address spoofing is real and is not that hard to do … for those who know how and have the tools (software) to do so. There will always be those who try to cover their tracks and there will always be those who will try to expose those tracks to scrutiny. I have mentioned Google Analytics, a suite of tools designed to analyze web traffic. There are several levels of complexity from the basic no-cost set to a much more complex set that is available at a cost per month on a subscription basis. That is not the only set of web traffic analysis tools that can be installed on a web site’s server(s). just the one I am most familiar with having been a subscriber in the past. I have no knowledge of which toolkit out host uses nor am I much interested in knowing as I am not hiding my tracks.
No one expects the
Spanish InquisitionForestry Board!What a disgrace.
well said.
What a foul, smarmy and sneering piece of trash! I am sorry Mrs. Hoge received such an ugly and untrue missive, and hope she was not unduly distressed by it.
I would not describe Mrs. Hoge as distressed, but she is not amused either.
I don’t blame her, or you.
Oh. My. Goodness.
I am sooooo looking forward to seeing things start moving very soon. Our host would not have posted this if it would have tipped off CBBS to anything he could prevent. What was that about a centipede with extra shoes, or it’s raining shoes, or something? hahahahahahahaha
Idiot as much as admits he sent the email or had it sent. He vouches for the contents as “absolutely true.” hahahahahaha
Fingers crossed – It would be so perfect if the Sheriff could prove the sis (if real) sent it at CBBS’s behest and direction. hahahahahahaha
Speaking of buffoon bill’s slow sis, did anyone hear what she “won” today? hahahaha
oops – forgot to include admission:
https://twitter.com/PatOmbudsman/status/462409037033005057
And as usual, trying to get us to ignore the bits that support what we’ve been talking about and instead get us to “FOCUS!”™.on the bits which support his claim.
https://twitter.com/PatOmbudsman/status/462413774503563264
Bex instead is claiming she won because she says she knew something someone else didn’t think she knew, that a microphone was off during some TV or radio show. She seems to like winning a lot.
My sources tell me Bex is really The Bobber. Post-Op.
BTW – I don’t know that I’ve seen the entire email, including any attachments, so I couldn’t possibly aver the entire missive is completely false. Had I sent the email, or been involved in the sending of the email, why of course I’d be confident in describing “every word” in it.
Buffoon bill is a lowlife loser and as we all know, failures gotta #FAIL

His wife, Connie, is a member of the Forestry Board and, therefore, a public figure.
I wonder about Rauhauser and Osborn.
Has he reopened patriot-ombudsman? It routed you to his new radiowise guy site earlier today.
Gee whiz, an anonymous emailer. Sorry, but if I were in a position of authority, I’d never accept a spoofed email as anything like evidence… except against the sender.
Indeed, a trivial amount of detective work for Johnny Atsign, and another criminal charge for Cabin Boy.
He’s a liar who continues to lie, even to himself. He wrote a disgusting piece about the Hoge’s in which he painted Mrs. Hoge as a drunk. “The piece of filth” that he keeps referring to is actually a parody of that original obscenity. He has his nose out of joint because someone turned the tables on him. I wonder if he’s shown his wife what he wrote about Mrs. Hoge? He also has spent two years calling another woman a prostitute and a whore, but has yet to produce a conviction, which is the rule according to Schmalfeldt. He spent a couple days this week accusing Betty of bestiality Every woman who stands up to him is a whore, c*nt, tw*t, and other names so disgusting that I can’t even allude to them.
Don’t forget: Families are off limits! Well, except for Stranahan’s young daughter, teen or pre-teen wasn’t she when the disgusting wretch focused on her?
Oh, and except for the families of all who call him out. Or even just get his attention.
I don’t think anyone here is going to stick up for Schmalfeldt. Your comment, however, should be interesting to many. I don’t really follow twitter, but I looked at Schmalfeldt’s feed this week for the first time and thus saw the tweets you are referring to. He re-posted the tweet which I believe Betty or clairfries (sp?) had re-posted on this site’s comments (re-tweeted from someone else) which was a crudely photo-shopped picture of Mr. Schmalfeldt with testicles photo-shopped onto his chin (which is particularly funny if you are familiar with ball-chin-boy from Southpark).
Mr. Schmalfeldt then re-posted the picture, ensuring anyone viewing his feed can see the hilarious photo (#facepalm). With Streisand-effect like grace, he drew additional, unnecessary attention to the photo while also making crude comments about bestiality directed towards the women responsible for retweeting the image.
I think name calling is in poor taste, but I think the term attention-whore applies to the subject of the photo.
Yes, your disapproval was duly noted in the other thread. I expect your displeasure will have a similar impact in future threads.
What Bill Schmalfeldt, cyber stalker subject to a peace order and a restraining order, is trying to do is drum up sympathy and change the narrative. He wants everyone to believe that he was just minding his own business, being nothing but polite on Twitter ( a lie he told in his most recent book), when suddenly, Krendler wrote that parody. An outraged Bill reprinted it in his “book,” only to have it yanked by Hoge for infringement.
Only that’s not how it happened. Bill wrote an obscene parody that included WJJH’s family. Bill sanitized his blog and tweets in preparation for the sympathetic piece by Karoli Kuns. Remember his comment to Betty that he had promised to behave? Krendler had managed to copy the piece, however, and it was then that he spoofed it. As usual, Bill Schmalfeldt, deranged cyber stalker subject to restraining orders in two different states, was the instigator. Now he accuses the accuser.
Don’t forget the woman he refers to as a ‘mail order bride’.
I see it is time for some more doctored photos. I didn’t want to have to do this. I thought he was going to behave.
Time for some South-West justice.
Again.
Please, don’t. All you will do is make it look like he has cause.
Don’t, all right? Not for a few weeks, anyway.
Shut up, Neal.
gmhowell, Dianna is a long time respected commenter on this and a few other blogs I frequent. Neal does have many personas (including a certain orange vegetable) but Dianna is not one of them.
Mr. Howell, I’m not Neal. I’m me. I simply advised as I see matters.
You judgment may be at odds with mine. But I have given my best advice, so far as I am able to judge.
Apologies in that case.
Accepted.
I am basically with Diana.
Howard, please hear this as coming from a friendly person talking. You have rightly objected to much of what BS does. The problem is that you also adopt some of his tactics. You should only use just acts to pursue justice. And if you do not pursue justice, please reconsider.
I know that BS wouldn’t show you the same consideration that I urge you to show. But that doesn’t matter.
This has the Schmalfeldt siblings all over it. They share enough traits, it’s clear they’re from the same litter.
“His wife, Connie, is a member of the Forestry Board and, therefore, a public figure.”
What the hell is that supposed to mean? Assuming for the sake of argument that she is, so what? There is no public figure exemption to harassment laws, just as there are none for people with PD or “journamolists.” Or is it a threat to defame her?
In my opinion, BS has indeed committed the stupid acts this past week that WJJH predicted he would.
Why was it sent to her? He thought that sending it to Mrs. Hoge wouldn’t violate the peace order, of course.
Only “thought” isn’t an Inspector Jiggles strong suit.
I don’t think there are public figure exemptions to peace/restraining orders either, given how many folks in Hollywood end up in the news because some nutjob has just had a restraining order slapped on them, often for less threatening and disgusting behaviour than Bill has shown lately.
Certainty the kind of legal “genius” we’ve become acustomed to from ACME Legal
His understanding of the law is mixed up.
Public figures – like other people – have the right to be left alone, that is why Madonna, David Letterman and other have filed restraining orders.
Bill Schmalfeldt not only harasses John, he harasses John’s son, John’s wife, and even created a twitter account for John’s deceased mother (all of which have been screen capped).
He should rightly be held to account for this deplorable behavior…which goes much further than direct contact and violating the peace order.
This is a long pattern of harassing conduct targeting John and his entire family.
OMG, you fat tub of lard! Attack your opponent , not the wife or children. I have a grade III astrocytoma (brain cancer for the tub of lard). I could still run circles around your huge @$$!
INTERFERENCE OR THREATENING a public official is a serious offence
many people wrote a long time ago that he just won’t stop until someone stops him cold = I am envisioning another visit from this time a not so friendly police man
it embarrassing to be handcuffed – think of that before you act again
They’ll have to get XXXL cuffs for that fat tub of goo.
Poor Bill. He’s madly shrieking this morning and proving yet again that his reading compression is piss poor. Nowhere in that post does Mr. Hoge say what night the email was received and shown to various candidates for sheriff and SA.
Or he’s just lying through his teeth to try to deflect from the obvious truth of who sent it.
Or both.
“What a screwup that boy is!” — a late Schmalfeldt relative, referring to Bill, circa 1968.
Things have not improved…
The tone and wording of that mail remind me of Wee Willy Ferguson. Of course he has been laying low lately with only one lying blog post in the past week or so. Hard to tell. I don’t know if even Bill would be stupid enough to send it, but I don’t put it past him writing it and sending it to a “friend” to then pass on. His circle of friends is pretty small by now. Little Fergy is about the only one left other then Brett talking to him.
I can see you point. Kind of “catty”. Like a man not quite sure of his gender. Which, if you’ve had as much interaction with the wannabee Dieter from Sprockets as I, isn’t such a stretch.
https://twitter.com/PatOmbudsman/status/462586058413461504
It’s a shame Willy never “asked questions” about his good friend Kimberlin. Like why he never paid the settlement with Mrs. Delong, or how old his wife was when she came from overseas, or the guy living with them and his “issues”. And on, and on.
There are lots of questions to ask Willy. Why are you being so selective as to who you ask?
Feel free to add your own questions for Willy to ask BK the next time they talk. Maybe they just slipped his mind.
I would very much like to compare the full headers of that which was sent to the Sheriff’s office to the email Mrs. Hoge received. There is often more than time stamps and IP addresses that can be probative.
