Well folks the lengths I go to inform, educate and amuse you my faithful readers. Friday night I received a top secret phone call informing me of a NXIVM celebration in an old abandoned banquet hall in Halfmoon NY. Seems the old guard had put out a call for a gathering of the faithful to show “support” for Nancy Salzman’s aka ( "Prefect") in what they are now calling these “troubled times”With a scheduled start time of 8pm I showed up at quarter till 7, parked in plain sight in an adjacent parking lot, put the top down in my fast and nimble red Mitsubishi Spyder and proceeded to photograph and record the festive proceeding.
Well let me tell you, I am one jaded bastard, but even I was surprised by the level of security. A paramilitary style camouflaged truck with two security guards were the first to arrive to secure the perimeter. I can only assume they were armed. Then with the area swept clean the happy guest began to arrive. Happy that is until they saw me.
My first confrontation was with a large young man that went something like this. I will call him Smiley in honor of his sunny disposition.
Smiley; approaching my car “what are you doing”Me; recording for prosperity the blessed event
Smiley;Who are you?
Me: I write for Saratogaindecline.
Smiley; So you’re that guy
Me; Yes I am, you should read it.
Smiley;Your nothing but a coward.
Me; How am I a coward? I’m out in plain sight, unarmed while you huddle in an abandoned banquet house, protected by UZI packing paramilitaries and I’m the fucking coward?
Smiley;I want you to leave.
Me; Well Smiley I want to win the lottery tonight but I think we’re both going to be disappointed.
At this point Smiley is growing visibly more and more angry.
Smiley; Do you ever watch the TV show LOST
Me; Yes handsome I love that show.
Smiley; People disappear in real life
Me; And a Merry Christmas to you too
Well at least I got rid of him.
Now my “rules of engagement”
Believe it or not I do follow my own moral compass. How ever fucked up it is.
1. I try not to photograph children
2. I am not after the little minnows, I want the big fish
3. Security guards will always be photographed
4. Anyone who confronts me is photographed
5.Any one who takes my picture will be photographed
Next the food started to arrive and let me tell you it looked like it sucked.
Five boxes of pizza ,Wal-Mart bags of Soda. And I’m not making this up. A bunch of food brought to the party in a organic pest control company truck.YUM!!
More and more guests arrived dressed in a wide variety of clothing styles. Some were pretty hot. All were mightily pissed when they saw me.
Then as the magic hour of 8 arrived and I waited with baited breath to get a photo of Keith Raniere, it happened.
Not one, but two State trooper cars surrounded me.
Now let me say that once I explained to the officers what I was doing they couldn’t have been nicer. They were very interested in what was going on inside. One had gone to the door of the decrepit banquet house, but they wouldn’t let the Trooper into the building past the front door. They then asked me what they were doing inside, I explained everything, one promised to read my blog. I pointed out the paramilitary vehicles and told them they were trying to get me out of the area so my presence wouldn’t upset ‘Vanguards” arrival.
Now this discussion had taken over a half an hour and the police explained that although I was doing nothing illegal, my presence was upsetting the people in side. At that point knowing the level of paranoia, the fact they were probably heavily armed I agreed, voluntarily to leave.
I know some of you out there are still afraid of these bozos. Some of you are on the fence about giving me information. Don’t be, they are all bluff, if this 53 year old man living in a rented apartment, still running windows xp on an old computer with a $60 Kodak camera can cause all this trouble. Well then you got nothing to worry about
Oh and I almost forgot happy birthday Nancy
I thought this guy was trouble and he was headed for me,but my camera scared him off
This one makes the cut for photographing me
This pissed off women took my photo. Here's looken at you kid
The food really sucked
I did see two of the cars that I think have been following me.
Black BMW SUV Tinted windows
black SUV with dark Tinted windows

Fuck the goons. We want pics of the sluts.
Did you notice any actors or celebrities from the World Audience Productions attending?
The one walking across the street who took your picture looks like life time gal pal Pamela Cafritz, rumor has it she "really" likes to get the money shots, if you know what I mean
John,
Let's figure out how to get you Press credentials. A number of bloggers have even gotten NYP license plates that help as a media person covering news events.
And let's get you a FlipCam to help document your encounters.
As we said, we have your back.
OMG John you are such the party crasher. Would love to see the police report on your blog.
The skinny gal (full body shoot) does looks like Pamela Cafritz. If so she would be Keith's 2nd longest running gal pal.
Rumor is she comes from a well to do family in Washington D.C.
Wonder if Pam's parents have read this blog, Rick Ross website, or any of the public legal documents of her boyfriend and his members legal dealings.
How do her parents answer their friends when they ask what Pamela is up to theses days? "Oh you know our little Pam, she's out saving the world".
This is hilarious shit! I wish I were there last night. Maybe you should rent a bus for vanguard week and bring a crew up to the birthday bash. Apparently anyone with a well packed cooler will be sure to snag a nxivm date!
OK...So let's all decide what would be a "Perfect Gift for Prefect". Me, I'm still trying to decide between a free laser-lipo treatment from ex-hubby Michael Salzman, MD (Clifton Park) and a free upper lip elect.rolysis
The Indian guy looks like Kamaraj Kalyanasundaram.
From Pamela Cafritz's old website
(via the Wayback Machine):
"My best investment is spent with friends of humanity. My greatest treasure is knowing a man of honor - Keith Raniere."
Personal Mission Statement:
I, Pamela A. Cafritz, will live my life as a participant and not a spectator in the stands. I stand for justice and full representation of what it is to be Pamela Cafritz. I will leave this earth knowing I made a diffence to myself and to others. I strive to paint my pallet with the brightest of colors to create clarity and vision of my true identity and purpose in the world.
My goal is be fully integrated and break through my own limitations and fear of pain.
Speaking of the Wayback Machine, I think I found someone who is a worse speller than John Tighe...and her name is Clare Bronfman.
http://web.archive.org/web/20051228134243/houseofequus.nxivm.com/
Is this still her email address?
clarewebb21@aol.com
And speaking of Kamaraj, it looks like he might be using Facebook to recruit some nannies for Vanguard's Rainbow Gardens?
Here's what he posted on the Infosys Mexico Facebook page:
"Hi Guys, I work for Infosys too, currently in NJ. A friend of mine is looking for a native hindi speaker, who is interested in teaching Hindi to kids in Mexico and Monterrey. Please let me know. Kamaraj (kkamaraj7@gmail.com)
April 3 at 2:10am"
Three days to celebrate the Prefect's birthday, and eight days to celebrate VanFraud's birthday? How self-aggrandizing and narcissistic can these peoples' notion of "tribute" be? People living in the real world and with minds can't actually fall for this crap can they?
Tracy Christopher is the gal with the cell phone. What is she figuring out how to use the camera on her phone or calling the troopers.
It looks like Eric Mumford is the guy you are calling Smiley. There are at least 3 Mumford's in NXIVM.
Isn't the building they had Nancy's party at right by the soon to be new home of Fred The Butcher. He won't be getting any business from NXIVM unless he starts selling tofu.
Hum, the meat butcher next to one of the hang outs for the emotional butchers (well not all of them as long as you stay in the clan).
OOps, almost forgot, HAPPY BIRTHDAY PREFECT

Who care about the Prefects birthday? Who cares about Vanguards birthday? The most important day of all is this week. JOHN TIGHE'S BIRTHDAY!!!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOHN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You were threatened by an IT geek??!?!?!! Maybe he needs to get back behind his computer. If they have all this expertise in IT why can't they shut you down. And why do they have to pay O&A hourly just to watch you?

Long time NXIVM zombie Tracy Christopher has a new front called EVOLUTION TALENT NETWORK.
Read the bio if you need a good laugh. Anyone that knows of her background and non-accomplishments sure will.
"Did you notice any actors or celebrities from the World Audience Productions attending?"
Yes. Mark Vicente, Mark Hildreth, and Sarah Edmondson, are there. Nicki Clyne must be since she lives there now. I'm not sure about Kristen Kreuk or Allison Mack, but they probably are. I hear some of them are going to see the movie "Inception" tonight at Crossgates theater around 10 pm.
Cult Buster, I'm not familiar with Tracy's career and work, but holy shit, that bio is a fuckin hoot.
"Tracy shopped and packaged bands that would later rise to super-stardom."
Name ONE of those bands, please.
"Tracy has done things: important, expensive, adventurous things, that none of us will probably ever understand."
Who in their right mind would want to work with someone who puts this shit in their professional bio? It makes you sound like a total asshole.
"She was ridiculously successful as a radio executive"
Then why is she working a small-time local 'battle of the bands' scam like this one? These kinds of 'services' for musicians are straight up cons. And who calls herself "ridiculously successful as a radio executive" without giving ONE example of where she worked or what she did?
Looks like she's taking a page from the VanFraud book of self-promotion: make wild claims about your past without offering a SHRED of evidence.
If you continue on and read the bios of the people she lists on her site, the reading becomes hilarious! Oh the sound man's bio, it explains that before amplification, performers had to scream to be heard. I read the bios aloud and a good laugh was had by all!
For sure, I had the same reaction. So I just had to ring up a friend of mine who is a local musician of merit to get his take on her. He knew of her, and his report-
She worked for radio stations, that's where she spits the "festival producer" stretch. She worked putting together radio fests, not anything of her own like you might believe from reading her shit. You'd think she was Bill Graham or somebody.
She ended up getting into some sort of nasty lawsuit with some station about something or other (good experience for nxivm, huh?) and became an untouchable because of it. She eneded up getting a job as a promotions director for some annoying local station. That means she scheduled DJs to come act stupid at your bar or birthday party or fish fry.
She ended up trying to do the booking at Revolution Halll over in Troy. That is a large live music club. But his word is she screwed that up pretty good. The sound guy you refer to in your post was the owner of the place at the time, until the two of them basically took the place into near bankruptcy and had to sell it to their landlord.
I get the impression she does a lot of the nuts and bolts work for the cult. She was a coordinator of the A Cappela thing, and I would bet she is involved in anything show biz oriented for them.
How or if her new little thing is connected to Raniere and company is not known. But they usually are with these nuts. Just like the A Capella thing, I would bet the impressionable young people in these little neighborhood battle of the bands could make for easy prey.
I hope someone keeps an eye on it.
Tracy Christopher; Tracy has done things: important, expensive, adventurous things, that none of us will probably ever understand.
And now she can add photographing me to her list of important, expensive, adventurous things, that none of us will probably ever understand.
And I will be celebrating John's birthday for TWELVE days during a celebration known as Tigheweek.
"On the first day of Tigheweek, Keith's zombies gave to meeee...a black, tinted window SUV."
"On the second day of Tigheweek, Keith's zombies gave to meeee...two legal threats, and a black tinted window SUV."
"On the third day of Tigheweek, Keith's zombies gave to meeee...three hired goons, two legal threats, and a black tinted window SUV."
And so forth.
Tracy Christopher is delusional and looks like an idiot. Who hires someone that puts such a ridiculous website up?
In fact, the whole cult seems delusional. A successful company serves more than soda and pizza at a party. Food seems to be an issue for them. If I remember right, the acapella event had terrible food too. They need a chef or caterer to join so they can party in style. I think this makes it a sure bet Steve Sullivan is out!
Also, if you look at the "properties" they own, they are oldish townhomes in Clifton Park. None very impressive. All in the CliftonParkinglot area(as per our friends the idiots).
I'm not a snob and have nothing against pizza, soda or townhouses. But, they have deluded themselves into thinking all of this is great! Didn't anybody think to get the birthday party catered, even by Price Chopper? They appear to be second rate, at best.

Eric Mumford has sold that house on Domenica Drive in Waterford.
I wonder if Nancy made her daughters have sex with her buddy Keith. What a bunch of fucked up people...
