Today is the eight anniversary of the District Cour’s denial of the false peace order petition Brett Kimberlin filed against me on behalf of Tetyana Kimberlin’s elder daughter.
After the hearing, Breitbart Unmasked ran a copy of some tweets that Kimberlin tried to introduced as evidence. They supposedly proved that I posted a comment to an article at the Montgomery County Gazette.Because I denied making such a comment and could not authenticate the tweet as mine, Matt Osborne tried to gen up a false story that I perjured myself.
Bullshit!
I couldn’t authenticate the tweets as mine, because ithey weren’t. They’re retweets. The original tweets (and I presume the comment at the Gazette) was by Lee Stranahan.I took me all of two minutes to find that original tweet via Google.
BTW, Kimberlin must be a very slow learner, because he tried to offer the same tweets as evidence in the Walker v. Kimberlin, et al. trial.
BY MR. KIMBERLIN:
Q Did you ever read an article about my daughter in the Bethesda Gazette?
A No. I, I’ve read several comments about it. I was aware of it. I did click on it, and look at it to see that it existed, but I didn’t bother to read it.
Q I’m going to show you Exhibit 31.
A Oh, yeah, these are the forged comments that you tried to introduce in the peace order hearing back in March of 2015.
Q Do you recognize that one?
A I–
THE COURT: He just said that they’re forged, so he can’t authenticate them.
THE WITNESS: I cannot authenticate it; they’re forged.
Insanity is trying the same thing over again expecting a different result.
This post from nine years ago today was about a certified mail green card the The Deadbeat Pro-Se Kimberlin filed in one of his LOL suits and asked, “Another Forgery?“. And yes, indeed, it was.
* * * * *
The Dread Pro-Se Kimberlin has filed a motion in his frivolous copyright suit against Kimberlin Unmasked that includes an exhibit purporting to show a Certified Mail green card with the Restricted Delivery “Yes” box checked.
TDPK also filed a report on the status of service in the Kimberlin v. The Universe, et al. RICO Madness that included the Post Office receipt for that particular piece of mail. The receipt shows that the extra fee for Restricted Delivery was not paid. Thus, there is no legitimate reason for the tick mark in the “Yes” box to be on the card.
I’m not a defendant in the copyright suit, so I don’t have standing to intervene in that case, but I’ll bet that it won’t be long before someone is able to bring this issue to the attention of Judge Titus.
Mark Twain once observed that if you tell the truth you don’t have to remember what lies you told to which people.
UPDATE—In 2013, the charge for Restricted Delivery was $4.75. As can be seen on the receipt, that amount was not paid. If it had been the total postage paid would have been $15.00.
* * * * *
The Gentle Reader may remember that Brett Kimberlin is a convicted perjurer. He has a history of failing at forgery as well.
In 1979, Kimberlin was arrested after he tried to procure counterfeit government documents—including a presidential seal, military driver’s license forms, and military license plates. The search of the car he was driving during that bust found bomb making material and led to his Speedway Bombing conviction.
The whole of Team Kimberlin’s lawfare campaign was a pack of lies aimed at undermining the credibility of bloggers and reporters who were writing about Brett Kimberlin. Now, you’d think that people with that much practice at lying would at least be competent at it, but competence was rare among the members of Team Kimberlin. The TKPOTD for nine years ago was about an attempt by Matt Osborne (aka Xenophon) to lie about the progress of one of Kimberlin’s LOLsuits.
* * * * *
Xenophon is telling lies over at Breitbart Unmasked again (No, I won’t link to it.)—What really happened was that The Dread Pro-Se Kimberlin’s motion for alternate service on Ali Akbar was denied. You see, Maryland Rule 2-121(a) requires that service of process via mail be by Certified Mail, Return Receipt Requested, Restricted Delivery. Unfortunately, TDPK didn’t check the box for Restricted Delivery on the Certified Mail green card. Also, and this is confirmed by the USPS mailing receipt he filed as an exhibit in his RICO status of service report, he didn’t pay for Restricted Delivery either. The Restricted Delivery charge in 2013 was $4.75 in addition to the $5.65 for Certified Mail with Return Receipt. Sure enough, the copy of the green card that Kimberlin filed with his motion for alternate service does not have the Restricted Delivery “Yes” box checked. Even if he had mailed the package to correct address, service would have not been valid.
Meanwhile, TDPK was unhappy that Ali’s lawyer was not being cooperative, that is to say, was looking out for his own client’s interests. In a fit of pique, TDPK filed a motion for sanctions against Ali’s lawyer, and, to make sure that he got it right this time, he included an exhibit that showed the green card with the box checked.
And he got caught.
And Judge Burrell was not amused by having two versions of the same document from the same party. Motion denied!
Furthermore, at no time during the hearing did Judge Burrell verbally order Ali’s lawyer to disclose Ali’s current address to TDPK, and she has not sent any such written order to Ali’s lawyer.
So what we have here is a notorious liar lying about what happened when a convicted perjurer got caught filing an apparently forged document with a court.
#Fail
* * * * *
That one check mark wound up costing Kimberlin dearly.
You’d think that people lie a lot and routinely forge documents would eventually learn how to do it reasonably well, but Team Kimberlin’s level of incompetence is in a league by itself. This Prevarication Du Jour first ran seven years ago today.
* * * * *
The Cabin Boy™ is trying to dance his way around the trail of evidence of his forging the header he claimed was from an email sent to him by Lynn Thomas.As a commenter has noted, the version of the email header initially posted on the Cabin Boy’s™ blog is not the same as what is there now. However, my analysis was done on what was posted on Twitter, not his blog. (Others have done analyses on the original images from the blog, and those have been consistent with what I found on Twitter.)The URL for that tweet is twitter.com/themerrywidower/status/666375731480559616, but it has now been memory-holed.
However, the attachments were both downloaded and screenshots were taken of them. Here’s what the header looked like as seen on the original tweet. (Click to embiggen.)As the Gentle Reader can see, the one intermediate time stamp is 13:51:01 while all the others show hh:15:01 (depending on time zone).
Spoliation of evidence won’t save the Cabin Boy™. Rather, it creates the presumption that the multiple archived copies are true and correct. That presumption is reinforced by his habit of putting potentially embarrassing evidence down the memory hole.
What’s waiting for the Cabin Boy™ in Room 101? The Truth.
UPDATE—I could keep the Cabin Boy™ putting up new versions of the “true” header by dribbling out bits of evidence over time, but I’m not in this as a game of gotcha. He needs to understand that we got him cold on this one. The Vast Hogewash Research Organization has documented the various versions of the header that he’s published. We know when they were created. We know which word processor he used. We know what other tools he used. Etc. I’ll throw out one more bit of information. We know when the original email header he altered was sent: Sunday, 15-Nov-15 19:42:01 UTC. That information is embedded in all the files he has published.
Bill Schmalfeldt is a liar and a forger.
Q.E.D.
* * * * *
That timestamp typo was the clincher. Emails simply don’t arrive at the addressee 26 minute before they are forwarded by a in-route relay server. At least they don’t with the kind of hardware that Schmalfeldt uses. OTOH, …
Brett Kimberlin never seems to have figured out how to make a well-structured, convincing argument supported by evidence. One of the reasons he lost the Kimberlin v. Walker, et al. LOLsuit was that he never succeeded in introducing any authenticated evidence that supported his claims.
OTOH, he made unforced errors in other cases that wound up authenticating the evidence against him. The TKPOTD for five years ago today was about one such admission.
* * * * *
I’ve been reviewing the documents produced by the Kimberlins during discovery in the Hoge v. Kimberlin, et al. lawsuit. One of them is a copy of a post from Breitbart UnmaskedBunny Billy Boy Unread titled Lee Stranahan and Aaron Walker Smear A Teenager’s Family And Try To Snuff Out Her Career. The post was originally published on 29 August, 2013, just after The Dread Pro-Se Kimberlin had filed his Kimberlin v. Walker, et al. nuisance LOLsuit and just after the Montgomery County State’s Attorney had dropped the first set of false criminal charges Kimberlin filed against Aaron and me. I was not surprised to find that the post is now missing from the Interwebz. I was surprised that TDPK would consider putting it into evidence.
You see, the post contains evidence that is part of the proof that the tweets TDPK attempted to use as evidence in his 2015 peace order petition are forgeries. By offering the post in discovery, he has authenticated it.
The TKPOTD for five years ago today dealt with some of the publicity that Brett Kimberlin received during his participation in the Russia Collusion Hoax.
* * * * *
Heh.
* * * * *
He so desperately wants to be a player, and he’s so profoundly a loser.
The TKPOTD for seven years ago today dealt with one of the times Brett Kimberlin was caught lying to a judge in court.
* * * * *
Brett Kimberlin has admitted to forging court documents. This exchange occurred last April between Kimberlin and Judge Ryon in the Kimberlin v. Walker, et al. nuisance suit. It deals with Certified Mail green card that supposedly verified service to Ali Akbar. The Gentle Reader may notice the PACER caption at the page break. This because the same card was also used to try to verify service in the Kimberlin v. The Universe, et al. RICO Madness.He’s bad liar and a bad forger.
Brett Kimberlin thought that he could use discovery in his LOLsuits to dig up dirt on his perceived enemies. His plan backfired when the opposing parties used discovery to go after him. The TKPOTD for four years ago today dealt with one of the Kimberlins’ attempts to weasel out of discovery in order to avoid being caught in lies and forgery.
* * * * *
When Brett Kimberlin handed me his deficient answers to my requests for production of documents during his contempt hearing in the Hoge v. Kimberlin, et al. lawsuit on the 17th, he also delivered Tetyana Kimberlin’s answers to the interrogatories I propounded to her back in February. Her answers were also deficient, so I filed this motion last Monday.
The boilerplate statement about no comment till the court rules applies to this motion as well.
* * * * *
The signature on the motion to seal mentioned in Interrogatory 8 which is alleged to be Tetyana Kimberlin’s does not match her signatures on other documents she is known to have signed. The signature shows characteristics of being made by a left-handed person. Tetyana Kimberlin is right-handed. Brett Kimberlin is left-handed.
The members of Team Kimberlin clearly wish they could have been influential denizens of the Interwebz, but they’ve failed. There so unimportant that they’ve even had to forge harassing emails and comments to their websites to draw attention themselves. This Bonus Prevarication Du Jour is from seven years ago today.
* * * * *
Ace investigative journalist Bill Schmalfeldt (Stop laughing; I’m not to the punchline yet.) says he’s receiving emails from someone calling himself “Nomen Nescio.” He asked me about that name during our mediation session in January, and I told him that it was Latin for “Name not known” and that the term was used on legal documents before “John Doe” was common.
It turns out that it’s also used as a blind return address by some anonymous remailers. Over the past month, I’ve received several emails routed through dizum.com, and the all were supposedly sent by “Nomen Nescio” whose email account is “nobody@dizum.com.” It took all of 15 seconds to pull down the headers from the first such email and about a minute on Google to find the dizum.com website.It’s hosted on a server in Holland. Note the Dutch flag on the dizum.com browser tab.
I’ve never used such a service. While I have had occasion to encrypt the contents of an email (usually because of sensitive client data), I’ve never had to mask my email address.
My best guess is that the “Nomen Nescio” who sent the email shown above is the same person who has tried to post obscene comments here at Hogewash! under various obviously fake names. But that’s just a guess.
UPDATE—I never suggested that the Cabin Boy™ has sent any of the “Nomen Nescio” emails to himself. I would have thought that they came from another source. OTOH, one wonders if these don’t constitute a tacit admission …
Brett Kimberlin’s use of lawfare was part of a larger campaign to try to prevent the public from learning the true nature of this past and current activities. Other parts of the campaign included the use of cyberharassment targeting Kimberlin’s perceived enemies, and the use websites, principally Breitbart Unmasked, to spread lies about those perceived enemies. Six years ago, BU was in the middle of smear campaign aimed at me. This post, Breitbart Unmasked and Topsy Tweets, was about Matt Osborne’s use of forged tweets. It ran six years ago today. The Topsy website was a now-defunct search engine for Twitter.
* * * * *
Breitbart Unmasked has published an article with Matt Osborne’s byline that states that I committed perjury during the Kimberlin peace order hearing last Friday. The facts debunking that claim have been laid out here and here. There’s one more bit of information that the Gentle Reader should know.
On 29 August, 2013, Breitbart Unmasked published an article with a byline of “Xenophon” titled LEE STRANAHAN AND AARON WALKER SMEAR A TEENAGER’S FAMILY AND TRY TO SNUFF OUT HER CAREER. Osborne has admitted that he used that byline at BU during that period. That article contains the following block quote from Twitter:Given that the “proof” of my alleged perjury was the “fact” that I has sent the “Brett Kimberlin uses news story …” tweet that Lee Stranahan actually sent and given that Osborne included the original proper version in his earlier BU article, it is reasonable to conclude that his erroneous reporting is the result of a reckless disregard for the truth.
I demand retraction of and apology for all false statements published by Breitbart Unmasked concerning me and any matters related to the Kimberlin peace order.
UPDATE—The 29 August, 2013, Breitbart Unmasked article has been taken down from the BU site, but it is available on the Wayback Machine. Additionally, the entire BU site has been routinely backed up offline, and I have the original html code for the post in hand.
* * * * *
Not only are they liars, they’re stupidly, clumsy liars.
In yesterday’s TKPOTD, I mentioned that there seemed to be several interesting items contained in the 2018 IRS Form 990 filed by Justice Through Music Project. For example, the form lists Jeffrey Cohen as Executive Director when it appears that he left the organization in 2017.
Here’s something else I found interesting, the Signature Block on the form— Compare it with the Form filed for the tax year 2016 which was actually filed in November, 2017—Now, compare them both with the Signature Block from the form for tax year 2014 which was filed in November, 2015—I find the differences interesting. The Gentle Reader may come to his own conclusions.
UPDATE—Corrected the date of the third signature block.
It seems to me that the real reason that Brett Kimberlin has engaged in his effort to use lawfare as a means of brass knuckles reputation management is that, although he doesn’t appear to be ashamed or feel any remorse for the things he has done, he does seem to understand that most people don’t approve of the things he has done. Thus, he would prefer that his past and much of his present actions remain hidden.
One of the things he tried to cover up was the perjured complaints that Tetyana Kimberlin and he filed against Aaron Walker and me alleging that we had harassed her elder daughter. Kimberlin filed a motion to seal the complaint and lied to the court about serving us with copyies of the motion, but he got caught in his lie when the court sent me a copy of its ruling denying the motion. The TKPOTD from four years ago today provides more detail.
* * * * *
A few weeks ago, I posted this motion to seal the records of the State v. Walker and State v. Hoge cases in which Aaron Walker and I were falsely charged with online harassment of a minor. The perjured Applications for Statement of Charges were filed by Tetyana Kimberlin, and the motion purports to bear her signature.
Neither Aaron nor I were served a copy of the motion. I found out about it when I received the copy shown above from the District Court showing Judge Wolfe’s denial of the motion. I later received service of the State’s response to the motion as well.
Aaron also received a copy from the District Court. Even though the judge has already denied the order, he filed an opposition to the motion to seal in order to make certain the case records would be available as evidence in the Walker v. Kimberlin, et al. lawsuit.
Even though Tetyana Kimberlin’s motion was denied on 11 July, the Kimberlin’s filed this “Reply to Defendant Aaron Walker’s Motion to Unseal, and Motion for Sanctions” on 8 August.
This yet another example of Brett Kimberlin’s increasing panic. The motion before the court was not one from Aaron to unseal. It was Tetyana Kimberlin’s (nominally) motion to seal. The Dread Pro-Se Kimberlin now has so many cases to track that he can no longer keep them straight.
Also, at no point in his bizarre filing does TDPK actually ask the court to impose any sanction on Aaron.
Everything is proceeding as I have foreseen.
* * * * *
BTW, look at what is purported to be Tetyana Kimberlin’s signature on the original motion. Now, look at her signature on the reply to Aaron Walker.
During the run up to the Kimberlin v. Walker, et al, nuisance LOLsuit trial, Brett Kimberlin seem particularly bothered by the reporting that Aaron Walker and I were doing on that case and the larger Kimberlin v. The Universe, et al. RICO Madness LOLsuit in federal court. He sent a letter the judge in the federal case seeking permission to file a motion for a preliminary restraining order as a gag order against us. That simply resulted in more reporting on The Dread Deadbeat Pro-Se Kimberli’s shenanigans here at Hogewash! and at other blogs. Here’s the TKPOTD from six years ago today.
* * * * *
The Dread Pro-Se Kimberlin haz sad. He says that Aaron Walker and I called him bad names. This is from his letter seeking to file a preliminary injunction in the Kimberlin v. The Universe, et al. RICO Madness.
Terrorist? Here’s what the 6th Circuit Court of Appeals said.
Kimberlin was convicted as the so-called “Speedway Bomber,” who terrorized the city of Speedway, Indiana, by detonating a series of explosives in early September 1978. In the worst incident, Kimberlin placed one of his bombs in a gym bag, and left it in a parking lot outside Speedway High School. Carl Delong was leaving the high school football game with his wife when he attempted to pick up the bag and it exploded. The blast tore off his lower right leg and two fingers, and embedded bomb fragments in his wife’s leg.
—Kimberlin v. White, 7 F.3d 527 (6th Cir. 1993)
Forger? Here are his own word from the document docketed as ECF No. 102 in the RICO Madness.That’s an admission that he forged the summons he sent to Twitchy. Also, he made this admission to Judge Ryon in a Kimberlin v. Walker, et al. hearing on 9 April, 2014, concerning a Certified Mail green card for a piece of mail sent to Ali Akbar.
Perjurer? It’s a matter of public record that TDPK is a convicted perjurer, and he has admitted as much in open court multiple times since May, 2014. Furthermore, he’s been caught lying recently. For example, consider these responses to my requests for admissions in the Kimberlin v. Walker, et al. nuisance lawsuit.Pedophile? I haven’t called Brett Kimberlin a pedophile. However, I have seen evidence that leads me to understand why someone might hold that opinion. I suppose that if he wants to push the issue, those who might have used that word will put that evidence before the court. Some of it has been sealed, but not all of it has. Also, court records can be unsealed.
If popcorn or Jujubes aren’t your favorites, Hogewash! is also offering a deal on Raisinets through Amazon.
Stock up today, and stay tuned.

As it says on this site’s masthead: Never pick a fight with a man who buys pixels by the terabyte.
Probably the least competent and most mockable member of Team Kimberlin is the musician wannabe William Ferguson. The TKPOTD from four years ago today dealt with one his failed predictions of the direst of dire direness that was supposed to befall me.
I wonder if this is what Ferguson thinks is his “bombshell”?Those are the forged tweets that Brett Kimberlin attempted to use as evidence during the District Court hearing for the peace order he sought against me last year. Those fakes have been debunked (go here for details), and the doubling down by Breitbart Umasked Bunny Boy Unread on a defamatory story that included them is one of the bases for the Hoge v. Kimberlin, et al. lawsuit.
If I had been lying about those tweets during the District Court hearing, one would expect that they would have been offered again during Kimberlin’s appeal to the Circuit Court along with additional backup evidence developed during the two month delay. That didn’t happen—perhaps because Kimberlin knew that I could prove that I was not the source of the tweets. My lawyer had the necessary evidence sitting in a folder ready to be introduced if needed.
The Team Lickspittle EOD crew was sent to disarm Ferguson’s “bombshell” over a year ago. It turned out to be a dud.
* * * * *
I seems like everything Team Kimberlin has touched since the Turn of the Century has been a dud.
Ah, another anniversary. It was five years ago today that the peace order petition that Brett Kimberlin filed in his wife’s elder daughter’s name was denied. The Gentle Reader should not be surprised that The Dread Deadbeat Pro-Se Kimberlin tried use forged evidence during the hearing or that his PR website Breitbart Unmasked Bunny Boy Unread provided false coverage of the hearing. I responded to those lies with this Prevarication Du Jour.
* * *
Over at Breitbart Unmasked, Bunny Boy is running a copy of some tweets that Kimberlin introduced into evidence during today’s hearing. They supposedly prove that I posted a comment on an article at the Montgomery County Gazette.Because I denied making such a comment and could not authenticate the tweet as mine, Bunny Boy is shilling Kimberlin’s story that I perjured myself today.
Bullshit!
I couldn’t authenticate the tweet as mine, because it isn’t. It’s a retweet. The original tweet (and I presume the comment at the Gazette) was by Lee Stranahan.I took me all of two minutes to find that original tweet via Google.
Did I mention that Brett Kimberlin is a liar?
* * * * *
I’m sure that I’ve mentions that TDPK’s first felony conviction was for perjury.
The members of Team Kimberlin have a history of forgery. Brett Kimberlin was arrested in an Indiana print shop when he tried to have fake Department of Defense driver’s licenses printed. (He was convicted.) He was caught submitting multiple forgeries to courts during his recent lawfare campaign. The TKPOTD for five years ago today laughed at The Dread Deadbeat Pro-Se Kimberlin and his forgeries.
* * * * *
I have @WhoIsNumberNone blocked on Twitter, but occasionally his handle shows up in my time line because he’s been @mentioned in the same tweet I have. That happened today and led me to finding this exchange.Zing!
Kimberlin Unmasked got in another good one with this observation in a post yesterday evening:
We understand that Brett was in the courtroom during Mr. Bill’s contempt hearing. It’s a shame that Brett’s being unable to testify in Maryland courts because of his perjury conviction prevented Mr. Bill from using him as an expert witness on forgery.
Heh.
* * * * *
His further involvement with fake documents has continued. In 2017, TDPK was implicated in the Democrats operation to acquire bogus financial records aimed at cause trouble for the Trump administration.
Oh, and the state senator representing Kimberlin’s district got a bill passed that removed the prohibition on testimony by perjurers in Maryland, so he can now be called as a witness in state court and be forced either to testify or take the Fifth.
Everything has been and is proceeding as I have foreseen.
The multiple LOLsuit filed by Team Kimberlin against me and my co-defendants have been a pain in the neck (or a couple of feet lower). OTOH, I have enjoyed watching The Dread Deadbeat Pro-Se Kimberlin and the Dreadful Pro-Se Schmalfeldt out-lawyer themselves. The TKPOTD from two years ago today dealt with on nice blunder by Kimberlin.
* * * * *
I’ve been reviewing the documents produced by the Kimberlins during discovery in the Hoge v. Kimberlin, et al. lawsuit. One of them is a copy of a post from Breitbart UnmaskedBunny Billy Boy Unread titled Lee Stranahan and Aaron Walker Smear A Teenager’s Family And Try To Snuff Out Her Career. The post was originally published on 29 August, 2013, just after The Dread Pro-Se Kimberlin had filed his Kimberlin v. Walker, et al. nuisance LOLsuit and just after the Montgomery County State’s Attorney had dropped the first set of false criminal charges Kimberlin filed against Aaron and me. I was not surprised to find that the post is now missing from the Interwebz. I was surprised that TDPK would consider putting it into evidence.
You see, the post contains evidence that is part of the proof that the tweets TDPK attempted to use as evidence in his 2015 peace order petition are forgeries. By offering the post in discovery, he has authenticated it.
Everything is proceeding as I have foreseen.
* * * * *
And when TDPK tried to use the forged tweets in another trial, they were inadmissible.
Normally, it’s a defendant who seeks to have a court record sealed, but someone else filed a petition to seal the case file in State v. Hoge, the case resulting from an Application for Statement of Charges filed against me for allegedly engaging in online harassment of a a minor. Because the State dropped the case for lack of evidence, I never sought to have the record sealed. The TKPOTD for four years ago today was about who did.
* * * * *
I received service of the following order from the District Court of Maryland is yesterday’s mail.
I was never served by the petitioner who, on the face of the document, appears to be Tetyana Kimberlin. It was fortunate that Judge Wolfe denied the petition. I assume that the petition was filed in order make it more difficult to use the District Court’s records in support of my malicious prosecution claims in the Hoge v. Kimberlin, et al. lawsuit.
The document represents itself as being filed by Tetyana Kimberlin. I find it interesting that the notice of service information for the State’s Attorney (which is handwritten in the wrong spaces) is in Brett Kimberlin’s handwriting. Also, the following items are interesting to compare—
This is Tetyana Kimberlin’s signature from the Protective Order Petition she filed seeking protection from her husband on 7 July, 2013.This is her signature on the Application for Statement of Charges she filed against me on 18 May, 2015.Here is the signature on the Motion to Seal.Hmmmmm.
* * * * *
BTW, Brett Kimberlin is still on unsupervised parole until 2030 for his multiple convictions related to dope smuggling and the Speedway bombings. IIRC, his arrest that led to those convictions occurred when he was caught trying to forge government documents (DoD driver’s licenses).
I believe I’ve mentioned in the past that Brett Kimberlin is a liar. In fact, as a check my notes, I see that I brought that up in the TKPOTD for five years ago today.
* * * * *
Here’s a real gem from a pleading The Dread Pro-Se Kimberlin filed in the Kimberlin v. The Universe, et al. RICO Madness called “Plaintiff’s Response to Defendant Hoge’s Two Latest Filings.”Well, duh! Given that one of the recurring features of this blog is called Team Kimberlin Post of the Day, nay a day does go by that I don’t write something about the malfeasance of Brett Kimberlin or one of his associates. The problem with TDPK’s allegation is that I accuse him of things that he as actually done.
For example, he’s a perjurer. He was convicted of that crime when he was a teenager, and his recent lies are well documented. He testified during the damages hearing in his lawsuit against Seth Allen that he had never had his parole revoked. He’s a forger. He’s admitted to forging the summons sent to Twitchy in the RICO Madness. He’s admitted to altering at least one Certified Mail green card related to service of process in the state Kimberlin v. Walker, et al. nuisance suit. There’s documentary evidence that he’s altered several more.
He’s a liar. And not a very good or very smart one.
Team Kimberlin is a bunch of liars and incompetent ones at that. They spin false narratives and then offer shoddy forged evidence which actually contradicts their claims. Two posts from four years ago described one such failure. The first was a TKPOTD. The second was an episode of Blogsmoke.
* * * * *
The Dreadful Pro-Se Schmalfeldt has finally figured out that he had a copy of my opposition to his motion to dismiss my contempt petition and that a copy of the envelope he mailed to me was included as part of an exhibit to my opposition. He now claims to have “proven” that he didn’t send the letter because it has a Baltimore postmark rather than one from Elkridge.
It is true that the envelope he mailed last January is postmarked Baltimore. See for yourself.That’s the same postmark as found on the envelope of the letter he mailed to Judge Grimm when he sought to intervene in RICO Madness case in February, 2014. Note that the PACER caption appears on the left edge; this was downloaded from the U. S. District Court’s docket.Schmalfeldt sent a second letter to Judge Grimm one week after the first. This zooms in on the postmark of the envelope for that letter (again, downloaded from the court’s docket).
Given that the Cabin Boy™ has admitted that he sent the letters to Judge Grimm, this demonstrates that at least some of his mail is sent via Baltimore. Thus, having the Baltimore postmark on the letter he sent me in January doesn’t prove or disprove anything.
The Cabin Boy’s™ PACER fu is even worse than his google fu.
Tick, tock.
UPDATE—Commenter MJ wonders about the signatures on the various letters.UPDATE 2—A Reader #1 wonders when the Cabin Boy™ made his claim of “proof.” Tune in to this evening’s episode of Blogsmoke to learn more.

KAPLAN: (Telephone filter) Uh, huh. Why do you say he sent it? He claims that the postmark proves that he didn’t.
JOHN: Really?
KAPLAN: (Telephone filter) Yes. He says that it’s postmarked Baltimore, and mail he sends from his residence in Elkridge shouldn’t have a Baltimore postmark.
JOHN: Can you forward that email to me? I’d like to see what he’s talking about. And can you give me a good call back number?
ANNOUNCER: I love coffee, but later in the day, I prefer tea. I like to drink my tea from my Team Lickspittle Tea Tumbler.

SOUND: Phone rings once. Receiver picked up
KAPLAN: CID, Detective Kaplan.
JOHN: (Telephone filter) John Hoge here. I just sent you an email. Can you pull it up?
KAPLAN: Hold on.
SOUND: Typing on keyboard. Mouse clicks.
KAPLAN: OK. I got it.
JOHN: (Telephone filter) Open the attached pdf.
KAPLAN: Uh, huh.
JOHN: (Telephone filter) There are three envelopes shown in the file. The first one is the envelope for the letter from January. The original is in the hands of the Circuit Court up here in Westminster, so there’s a no chain of custody issues.
KAPLAN: OK.
JOHN: (Telephone filter) The other two are from letters he mailed to the U. S. District Court. You’ll notice they show the PACER caption from the court docket, so they’re self-authenticating.
KAPLAN: Uh, huh.
JOHN: (Telephone filter) Compare the postmarks.
KAPLAN: Yeah, I see. They’re all Baltimore 212. So you’re saying that the record shows that The Grouch has sent mail with that postmark in the past.
JOHN: (Telephone filter) Which doesn’t prove or disprove who sent the January letter, but it does kill his claim that he couldn’t have sent it.
KAPLAN: So what about his forgery claim?
JOHN: (Telephone filter) Well, The Grouch began claiming that the letter was forged as soon as its existence was made public. He very quickly focused on the alleged similarity between the signature on the letter and his signature on a failed peace order petition he filed against one of the two people he’s claiming did the forgery.
KAPLAN: Which means what?
JOHN: (Telephone filter) Suppose The Grouch forged the letter himself.
KAPLAN: What?
JOHN: (Telephone filter) Suppose he wrote the letter, traced a copy of his signature on that peace order so that it would be “too similar,” and then mailed it from the same post office he had used for the letters to the federal court. He might think that would give him a means of claiming that he had been set up.
KAPLAN: That’s kind of farfetched, isn’t it?
JOHN: (Telephone filter) Does anything about this seem rational?
KAPLAN: Still …
JOHN: (Telephone filter) You’re dealing with a guy with multiple restraining order against him in at least three states, someone with a history of altering documents.
KAPLAN: It’s more than a little bit crazy.
JOHN: (Telephone filter) Read that first letter to federal judge that I forwarded to you. He admits to suffering from dementia. Look, the point is that his “forging” the letter makes as much or more sense that his explanation.
KAPLAN: OK, I’ll put all this in the case file.
JOHN: (Telephone filter) Good. Call me if you need anything else.

The Backstory: Bill Schmalfeldt sent me a letter while a peace order forbidding any contact with me was in force. He tried to claim that it was a forgery that had been created by the person he believed was “Paul Krendler,” and that it had been forwarded for mailing in Maryland by an accomplice who lived in Montgomery County.
Lying liars gotta lie, failing failures gotta fail, and everything proceeded as I had foreseen.
Team Kimberlin is a bunch of liars and clumsy ones at that. Five years ago today, I ran a post titled He Didn’t See It Here that dealt with one of Bill Schmalfeldt’s false narratives.
* * * * *
After returning home from church and having lunch, I checked in on my Twitter timeline and found this:Curious, I took a look at @CabinBoyRadio and found this:Since I had no idea what Schmalfeldt was talking about, I checked out his blog. It seems that he is trying to pin a bunch of “spam” comments to his blog on me. Of course, none of them are written in anything like the style of my tweets or comments on other blogs. None of them come any IP address associated with me. The IPs appear to be spoofed rather than TOR IPs because at least one is from AT&T Wireless, an unlikely spot for a TOR node.
I also found this rant.
[Image deleted. It was a rant about someone referring to him as “Schmuckfeldt.”]
There are several places where he may have seen that name before, but he never saw it in a post on this blog. I’m sure of that. I just ran a global search of all posts, this was the search return (Click the image to embiggen it.): I see three possible sources for the comments that Schmalfedt complains about. The first would be someone opposed to Team Kimberlin who is yanking Schmalfeldt’s chain. If that’s the case, I hope whoever it is stops. The second possibility is that a member of Team Kimberlin or a supporter/eneabler is doing it to stir up trouble. The third is that Schmalfeldt created the comments himself in an attempt to run the “accuse the accuser” play one more time.
Whatever. He didn’t see that name in a Hogewash! blog post.
UPDATE—After my Sunday afternoon nap, I checked my Twitterz again and found more tweets about Schmalfeldt and evidence. So I went over to @CabinBoyRadio again and found that he had posted some tweets allegedly from me. I was puzzled where he found them, because I couldn’t remember sending them. Then he tweeted this link to Very Ordinary Seaman Ferguson: http://topsy.com/s?q=schmuckfeldt%20from%3Awjjhoge&type=tweet. I clicked on it and found the tweets that he was claiming were mine. This one bothered me.I don’t cc myself on Twitter. What’s the point? So I clicked on the Reply button of the top tweet and got this.That’s not my tweet, is it? Indeed, it is tweet number 355754735903428608 which was sent by @AaronWorthing.
None of the other tweets are mine either.
This is not the first time that Bill Schmalfeldt has been caught trying to forge evidence. He would be well advised to stop. Very soon. As in now.
UPDATE 2—I notice he also tries to use postings at hogewash dot net as evidence. Oh, please! That site ran copies of the obscene images Schmalfeldt created of me last summer. It’s clearly not a site associated with or controlled by me.
UPDATE 3—If the Gentle Reader would like to see the original tweets on Twitter, click here and scroll down to last July.
UPDATE 4—Here’s what turns up when one does the same Topsy word search on @AaronWorthing:As you can see, the “Hitler is not happy …” tweet is Aaron Walker’s which proves absolutely nothing about the identity of Kimberlin Unmasked. It does, however, confirm that what Schmalfeldt has been trying to peddle is bogus.
#Fail
* * * * *
The technique of using a Topsy search to generate pseudo-tweets that appear to have been originated by someone who was included with an @ mention was recycled in March, 2015, when The Dread Deadbeat Pro-Se Kimberlin attempted to use forged evidence during a hearing for a peace order petition against me.
I’m pretty sure that I’ve previously mentioned that Kimberlin has been convicted of perjury and attempting to forge DoD driver’s licenses. He got his name in the papers in 2017 in connection with fake documents apparently aimed at causing trouble for the Trump administration.
When the facts get in the way of a false narrative that Team Kimberlin is trying to spin, they will tell lies and forge documents. For example, three years ago Bill Schmalfeldt was trying to peddle a story based on my participation in a far-right loonie chat group. Of course, he did a shoddy job of impersonating me, as was shown in a post titled Ho, Hum, Another Forgery.

BTW, I’ve had plenty of speeding tickets but never had a parking ticket.

When caught, the Cabin Boy™ doubled down on stupid, casting even more pointage, laughery, and mockification from a post titled The Usual Suspect.
* * * * *
Someone did. It’s another crude attempt to forge my WordPress Id. Examples of the correct form appear below.
* * * * *
Several Gentle Readers have noted that the Cabin Boy™ has been caught several times getting my WordPress ID wrong—that each time his error has been explained—and that he keeps making the same mistake. Some have wondered whether this is happening because Schmalfeldt is amazingly careless or because he isn’t very smart. Perhaps they should embrace the Power of And.
Given their vast experience telling lies, you’d think that Team Kimberlin would eventually get enough of a handle on the process to achieve journeyman status. However, it seems that their lack of talent in that area has them stuck an novice levels, and they are usually caught immediately. This post about Prank Calls from four years ago today is a typical example. The original post generated almost 300 comments of pointage, laughery, and mockification directed at the Cabin Boy™.
* * * * *
Apparently, Bill Schmalfeldt is aware of prank phone calls that have come to my home phone line.Hmmmm.
I suppose I should check the voice mail for that line when I get back to Westminster to see what’s there.
UPDATE—After checking the voice mail on that line, it appears that calls from at least 10 different local numbers were received within a brief period yesterday afternoon. Calls placed to those numbers resulted in denials that any legitimate calls had originated from them.
Given how Team Kimberlin whines about being the victims of false narratives, it’s ironic how often they get caught try to peddle forgeries. This post called Ho Hum, Another Forgery from three years ago today dealt with one of the many times Bill Schmalfeldt has been caught.
* * * * *
The Cabin Boy™ has got an obviously forged comment supposedly from me up at The Pontificator Prevaricator (No, I won’t link to it.). He’s also included the forgery in a couple of tweets.Here’s the easiest way to detect the forgery. Check out how my name is spelled in the clip from a real comment of mine made at Billy Sez shown on the left. It’s wjjhoge—all lower case with no spaces. Now look at the way the forger spelled it in the fake comment. WJJ Hoge—the initials and the H is Hoge are capitalized and there’s a space between the initials and my last name. If I had made the comment, a WordPress blog (such as The Pontificator Prevaricator) would have used wjjhoge because that’s my WordPress ID. WJJ Hoge is the way the Cabin Boy™ has often typed my name in his various LOLsuit filings.
This isn’t the first time that the Cabin Boy™ has been caught publishing forged stuff about me. The Gentle Reader who has been following things for a while may remember the forged Society of Professional Journalists info he published. Mr. Bill may be a forger, but he’s a really, really bad one.
Oh, one more thing … Bill Schmalfeldt is free to exercise his First Amendment right to write about me so long as he avoids defamation and threats. In fact, the more he writes about me, the bigger fool he tends to make of himself. If he had any sense, he’d … what am I saying? He doesn’t have any.
UPDATE—The Cabin Boy™ seems to think that I can’t prove that I didn’t write that comment. As a matter of fact, I can, but I don’t have to. If he thinks he can prove I did, … no, I won’t educate the Blob.
I can think of a number of Clint Eastwood quotes that could be used to close this update, but I’ll leave it to the Gentle Reader to pick his own favorite.
Bill Schmalfeldt tries to pass himself off as a journalist. Back in 2013, he joined the Society of Professional Journalists, apparently in an attempt bolster his claim in his appeal of the first peace order issued against that he really, truly was a working journalist and that the mean, nasty peace order infringed his First Amendment rights. Of course, his bragging about being a member of that society prompted some pointage, laughery, and mockification, beginning with this post about Professionalism from five years ago today.
* * * * *
Bill Schmalfeldt is bragging that he’s now a member of the Society of Professional Journalists. I presume that means that he went to our website, ticked the right boxes on the online form, and paid his $75 dues.
In a few years, his dues will be cut in half to the rate I pay as an “Over 62 Retired Member.”Yawn.
UPDATE—Apparently, the Cabin Boy has his panties in a knot because I’m a member of SPJ.A [redacted] fraud? Oh, come now! I presume that we were both are currently qualified for membership under the same standards, and I’m at a loss to understand why the date I joined (or rejoined, as the case may be) is of any relevance to qualification for membership. Basically, anyone who will say that he spends half-time or more doing something related to “journalism,” who is retired from doing such work, or who is studying to do such work and who pays the appropriate dues may be a member. There’s no background check or letters of recommendation required.
I was a working journalist doing broadcast news before Bill Schmalfeldt got to high school. I’m doing it again (part time) as a blogger. In between, I’ve had a career as a soldier, an engineer, and a businessman.
The Cabin Boy did get one thing right.There’s no way I’d waste good money just to pull his chain.
* * * * *
One of the reasons that Team Kimberlin’s various schemes fail is that the lies they tell to support them are so transparent. Later in the day, five years ago today, I wound up posting about the Forgery the Cabin Boy™ published to try to keep his whining narrative alive.
* * * * *
Bill Schmalfeldt has tweeted this concerning my membership in the Society of Professional Journalists …… and included this image with his tweet.
His image has some interesting properties. For example, it’s exactly the same dimension (450 X 572 pixels) as this image I published.There are also some differences. Take a look at the Join Date shown on the Cabin Boy’s version. Now, look at the redaction bar for the same information in mine. The reason the bar is so long on mine is that the date and time were shown when I screen capped the information. If Schmalfeldt had removed the redaction bar from mine, the time stamp should be visible.
Also, the numbers shown for the Join Date on the Cabin Boy’s version are slightly larger than those shown on the Birth Date line. It’s almost is if someone pasted a large white rectangle over my redaction bar and then typed in a date with almost, but not quite, the right size font.
BTW, no one would have access to the my membership maintenance page without my username and password. That’s one of the reasons why the last part of my username is obscured.
Hmmmmm.
UPDATE—One commenter asks why the Join Date isn’t in a box. It isn’t a changeable item on the form so it doesn’t have a data entry box.
Speaking of boxes, here are the Birth Date and Join Date from the Cabin Boy’s version with the small box superimposed around them. Note that the slash marks for the Birth Date do not extend the full height of the box, but those for the Join Date do. Close inspection will also show that the numerals are of different height as well.
UPDATE 2—The Gentle Reader will kindly note that I have not said that the Cabin Boy made any representation that the image he posted was of my actual information. I very carefully quoted him by reproducing his tweet. Still, the question remains—is what he posted a forgery?
UPDATE 3—The Cabin Boy says that his personal blog posts and tweets aren’t “journalism.” That’s probably what he thinks is the loophole that gets around this part of the Society of Professional Journalists Code of Ethics with respect to that modified image:
Journalists should: … Never distort the content of news photos or video.
* * * * *
None of this did anything to help the Cabin Boy’s™ appeal. The Court of Appeals denied his petition, and the Circuit Court denied his motion to amend the order and eventually renewed it for an additional six months. It was a completely wasted effort—except as a source of pointage, laughery, and mockification.
Dealing with the Cabin Boy™ has often been a battle of wits with an unarmed man.
