Hey everyone. I’ve thought long and hard about this, and I’ve finally decided — I’m in a really bad place right now due to harassment, frivolous lawsuits, and lies being spread, amongst other things. I didn’t think it could get worse, but it has. It just hasn’t stopped in years and these people won’t leave me alone, directly and indirectly. It’s death by paper cuts at this point. They’ve wanted to silence me for so long, so I’m giving them what they want for now, because I can’t take it anymore, quite frankly. But I’ll be back, hopefully stronger than ever. I need time to recharge my battery. Those that need to find me, know how to find me. Please don’t give out my number (like some of the friends-turned-haters have done in the past). This isn’t the last you’ll hear from me; I’m just prioritizing my health first and foremost over anything and everything. If I don’t respond, please don’t take it personally. I’ll eventually get back to you. Thank you for understanding. ✌🏻

This post is about one of the most serious cases of online narcissistic/predator abuse that I have ever seen. The online predator has engaged in prolonged attacks on multiple professional women that have extended for years. He has posted literally thousands of horrific, cruel and defamatory posts about these women. He has tried to destroy their careers by reporting them to authorities. His claims about each woman are exactly the same. None of these women have any sort of criminal background and all hold professional/support roles. The online abuser has been imprisoned several times as a violent offender, has a litany of other criminal offences, has been placed in a state psychiatric facility for criminals by a court because of his danger to society. We have just published Part 2 of a case study about this predator on the Kalmor website kalmor.com.au/case-studies/r…. The evidence in Case Study Part 2 is undeniable.

This was one of the greatest mistakes of my life. The ongoing attacks of @Ryan_Daigler have been extraordinary. At a recent international conference of senior profilers and cold case experts in the US, I presented the case of Ryan Daigler and evidence of the attributes and tactics he exhibits of the Persistent Predatory Personality. I would urge you to read the Case Study Part 2, and Part 1 if you haven't already here: kalmor.com.au/case-studies/r…. Remember the façade is caring, well intentioned, nice. The reality is very different. They are always abusing someone. I wish I did not have to waste valuable time collating and publishing this evidence. I’m also bracing for further attacks that publishing this evidence will engender from Ryan using his purchased accounts to spread misinformation and from people who want to believe in the good. I am posting this information regardless because I am passionately committed to supporting the vulnerable narcissistic awareness community. Predators with platforms harm people. It’s important to know the red flags and be discerning.

Nothing powerful about this at all. Powerful is being kind when everyone else tells you not to be. Shame on this PO.
Imagine being hospitalized after nearly losing your life, only to find yourself in the custody of someone you once worked alongside. Despite my attorneys explicitly requesting that NO ONE from the Essex County Sheriff’s Department be assigned to me due to the obvious conflict of interest, guess who showed up? CHRISTINE RODRIGUEZ. Officer at the Essex County Sheriff’s Department. And what a memorable reunion it was. Rather than properly securing my personal belongings in a property bag, Christine decided the trash was a more appropriate destination. Her explanation? “You’re an inmate now.” Ah, yes. Nothing screams professionalism quite like reminding a critically injured, hospitalized person of their custody status while throwing away their belongings. Innocent until proven guilty? She doesn’t know what that means. But my personal favorite moment? When she threw away my rosary beads. I had to remind this former colleague that being in custody doesn’t mean surrendering my religious rights. Only THEN did she retrieve my rosary from the garbage. Imagine needing the person you’re supervising to explain basic rights to you. And here’s where the irony gets particularly entertaining. From what I understand Christine allegedly sleeps on shift, causing herself to get written up and has had numerous alleged encounters with garage doors while operating a state-issued van, perhaps she should consider a driving course or two - or a nursing home. Imagine having that kind of professional history and still finding the audacity to lecture someone else about their status. Christine, maybe it’s time to consider retirement, a nursing home, or perhaps a job at Kittens. Because if the highlight of your career is throwing away a hospitalized woman’s rosary beads and reminding her that she’s an inmate, I think you’ve made your contribution to public service. Some people leave behind a legacy of leadership. Others leave behind a very questionable understanding of professionalism. Here’s what I’ll say: A uniform doesn’t make you respectable. A title doesn’t make you competent. And having authority over someone at their most vulnerable doesn’t make you powerful. It simply reveals what kind of person you are when you think someone else has no power. Some people wear a badge with honor. Others apparently need a reminder that basic human decency isn’t optional. And Christine, if you’re reading this, I still have those rosary beads. Funny how the things you tried to throw away survived. So did I. 😘 Feel free to call the department with your concerns of why this woman still has a job there: +1 (978) 750-1950 because when my legal team made a formal complaint about this situation when it occurred, all they were told is “yeah Christine is a problem, she shouldn’t have been sent there.” I don’t not condone harassment towards any persons involved.

It appears to be true. Sandra Birchmore has a living sister-in-law. Sandra's father may also still be alive. I understand these documents are out there, and I understand a lot of questions are out there about Sandra being sold to cover drug debts. I would ask all involved to act with compassion and dignity. Answers will come. In time.
Thank you to all who immediately sent Warren Birchmore's obituary. (fast) Sandra's stepfather died in 1995 before Sandra was born, per a Boston Globe obituary. Stoughton residents remember that he was killed after being hit in a crosswalk.

A percipient witness is an individual who has direct, firsthand knowledge of an event or interaction because they personally experienced it using one or more of their five senses. It is legally considered one of the most powerful and persuasive forms of direct evidence. In the Mathew Farwell case: Witnesses who actually KNEW Sandra Birchmore and testified there were no signs of suicide and that Sandra was happy in the days before her death: Diala Alkhalil (Her Longtime Therapist): No suicidal ideation. Saw Sandra the before her death. Routinely assessed Sandra for suicidal ideation and saw no indication of suicide. She testified that Sandra was "over the moon at having this baby", "very, very happy", and actively planning for the future. Stoughton Police Detective Heather Cheever: Was a mentor to Sandra. Testified directly to the jury that she never believed Birchmore was suicidal. William Kilroy (Ex-Boyfriend / Defense Witness: Birchmore was a "fighter" and "resilient," and he was not concerned she would actually kill herself. He noted she made no suicide attempts during the years he knew her. William Farwell (Defendant’s Brother): testified that "she seemed happy" and was making plans to go back to school. He explicitly told the jury that he did not observe any "desire for her to hurt herself.” Witnesses who never met or observed Sandra Birchmore, but read SOME records and interviewed… no one...and could NOT diagnose the victim. (Unlike Diala Alkhalil who could diagnose Sandra.) Dr. Melissa Piasecki Jurors will have to assign whatever weight to the evidence and testimony they believe is appropriate when they deliberate.

A very sick ring exposed in Massachusetts in the matter between the Feds vs Farwell where men in badges abused children. Similar shake down is going on right now in Ohio. I believe it is time to make it mandatory for the law to apply a death sentence for adults who abused children because I feel that Sandra Birchmore is not the only victim. There may be more victims that are too fearful to speak out. See below case involving a Police Chief. Very sickening. “Quite the guy… ~2005–2010: Alleged sex offenses with a student (Young Marines instructor / Scarlet Oaks teacher). Married to first wife Alicia Essert (Cincinnati police officer); they had two young children. • ~2010: Workplace sexual harassment allegations (Elmwood Place PD); resigned. • By ~2018: Relationship begins with current (second) wife. • By early 2020: Divorced from Alicia. • April 2020: Truck-related dispute with ex-wife Alicia at former marital home; charged with domestic violence; later pleaded guilty to lesser disorderly conduct (Oct 2020). • 2021–2026: Police chief in Bethel, Ohio. • June 11, 2026: Indicted on 70 felonies (56 sexual battery + 14 unlawful sexual conduct with a minor) for the 2005–2010 allegations. Arrested in Florida while on vacation with current wife; extradited to Ohio. • June 22–24, 2026: Pleaded not guilty; $500,000 bond posted; released (Ohio only, no contact with victim/minors, no firearms, passport surrendered). Current wife and family present/supportive at arraignment. • July 2026: Resigned as Bethel police chief. • As of late Oct 2026: Case still pending/pretrial. Not in jail. No public report of separation from current wife”
Wife of police chief finds out her husband was just arrested for doing the unthinkable with minors. A routine beach vacation abruptly turned into a career-ending takedown when tactical deputies ambushed an active Ohio police chief outside a Florida rental home, leaving his wife stunned on the curb as she learned about a massive, secret 70-count criminal indictment. ​On June 11, 2026, Pinellas County Sheriff’s deputies moved in on Chad Essert, the serving police chief of Bethel, Ohio (formerly with Elmwood Place), as he and his wife returned to their vacation rental in Seminole, Florida. Essert was placed in handcuffs without incident on an out-of-state warrant issued after a Clermont County, Ohio grand jury indicted him on 70 third-degree felonies: 56 counts of sexual battery and 14 counts of unlawful sexual conduct with a minor. ​The allegations do not stem from his active badge, but rather date back between 2005 and 2010 during his time working as an instructor with the Young Marines and as a teacher at Scarlet Oaks Career Campus in southwestern Ohio. If convicted across all counts, the charges carry a theoretical maximum exposure of up to 280 years behind bars. ​Newly released bodycam footage captures the raw fallout immediately following the arrest. Left alone on the driveway, Essert’s wife, who revealed to deputies that she was a former police officer herself, had to be walked through the charges by Florida law enforcement, visibly blindsided by the investigation originating hundreds of miles away. Deputies handed over her phone, keys, and bank cards, assisting her with immediate travel logistics so she could safely fly back home. ​Following his arrest, Essert was booked into the Pinellas County Jail and extradited to Ohio on June 18, 2026. Arraigned in Clermont County Common Pleas Court under Judge Victor Haddad, Essert entered a plea of not guilty to all 70 counts, with his defense counsel rejecting the accusations. Bond was set at $500,000 (10% allowed), which he posted to secure pretrial release. Shortly after his return, and facing administrative removal proceedings initiated by the village mayor, Essert officially submitted his resignation as Bethel Police Chief, effective July 9, 2026. The case remains in pretrial discovery as the defense and prosecution litigate historical evidence spanning over two decades. We will take another look at this one after the trail is completed.

Forgot to share here: This person ACTUALLY believes that Jamison was going to drive an actual train through Somerset running people over. 😂 This person doesn’t seem to have the brainpower to know what an IDIOM is (not to be confused with IDIOT). 🚂 A few examples: “Move the needle” (doesn’t mean there is a literal needle) 🪡 “Stop dead in your tracks” (doesn’t mean you’re actually dead) 🪦 “Jump ship” (doesn’t mean you’re literally going to jump overboard a random ship) 🚢 Anyway, anyone that can read knows what Jamison meant by this. 🤓 Respectfully, please vote for Jamison Souza for State Representative this November 3rd. 🗳️ The rest of you, please read a book. 📚

A timeline of the federal Matthew Farwell investigation in the summer of 2024: July 5, 2024 - Matthew Farwell slams his black GMC pickup truck into an Easton utility pole with enough force to split it in two, knocking out gas to the area, per police report obtained by @LAmag Farwell had what responding officers call "minor bleeding" to his left wrist caused by his bracelet. Around this time, a federal prosecutor told the court, Matt Farwell "writes a goodbye letter to his best friend, asks him to take care of his family, and tells him he will see him on the other side." That came after news reports hit about: June 18, 2024 - Dr. Michael Baden opines that Sandra Birchmore did not commit suicide but was much more likely murdered in a letter sent to Stoughton Police Department Chief Donna McNamara. “Ms. Birchmore did not die of suicidal hanging," Baden wrote, adding that the cause of death was ‘Strangulation’ and the manner of death is ‘Homicide' June 24, 2024 - McNamara releases a statement about Dr. Baden's findings, saying: "I was profoundly disturbed and troubled by what I read. While I am not a trained medical examiner, and I am not qualified to draw any direct conclusions, the findings certainly warrant further examination at the highest level." By then McNamara, and others, were cooperating with the FBI's investigation into Farwell. "Every good and decent police officer should be aware of and angry about the injustices inflicted upon Sandra Birchmore," the Chief said. "Sandra idolized police officers and what policing stood for in America, and she was victimized as a result." also late June 2024 - the civil suit filed in Norfolk Superior Court targeting Matthew and William Farwell, Robert Devine, and Joshua Heal along with Town of Stoughton and its police department accusing the men of grooming Sandra with her aunt's lawyer saying the men passed her around, heats up with the Attorney General saying she has opened her own investigation

NEW: Mother breaks down in court as she watches her son’s father abuse her child by making him run on the treadmill because he was “too fat.” New Jersey father Christopher Gregor is accused of killing his 6-year-old son Corey Micciolo. New footage shows the boy repeatedly face planting as Gregor forces him to run on a treadmill that was moving too fast. The father was allegedly biting him in the head as he forced him to run. Shortly after the incident, Corey was rushed to the doctor because he was slurring his words and stumbling. During a CT scan, Corey had a seizure and died. The autopsy report says he died from “blunt force injuries with cardiac and liver contusions with acute inflammation and sepsis.” (NYP) Gregor is facing life in prison.
