Original Consent Order and Judgment against Keith Raniere and Consumer buyline

I have been enjoying the ongoing discussion about CBI, Keith and pyramid schemes and in order to better facilitate it I am putting up the original Consent Order and Judgment against Raniere and CBI. So by all means carry on the discussion.
Here
Also a little bird told me that Steve Coffey will be on the Vandenburg's and Fred Dicker's show on Talk 1300 at 8am and 10am respectively, and that he will argue that blogs such as this are as dangerous as wikileaks and must be stopped at all costs. So just to show how intimidated I am my graphic arts department created this gem.

Coffey's firm is well known in the area. Here's an example of the kind of people they hire:

"Catalano, de Guzman, Douglas and Dugan are accused of taking part in a scheme to help soften the loan repayment problems for Michael P. McDermott, a former Albany County prosecutor now with the downtown law firm of O'Connell & Aronowitz.

Catalano "prompted his subordinates to unlawfully arrange special treatment for former Albany County prosecutor Michael P. McDermott by reducing his student loan payments 60 percent, purging his collection debts and blocking the garnishment of his wages, at a cost of more than $24,670 to state and federal taxpayers," the report states."

Yes, these lawyers can all break the law left and right, but we can't talk about it!

John, you r da man, man! Chain gang includes principals and profiteers of nxivm "permanently enjoined from promoting, offering or granting participation in a chain distributor scheme" and didn't we read in the WMIO Rational Inquiry Patent application more than a few chain distributor incentives to members?

Btw, was the 40k ever paid?

Really hope for the Bronfman sisters' sake the bang is worth the bucks.

“If the average potential juror knew that lawyers actually take pride in not believing what they say it could wreck the whole system.”

from 'Why Lawyers Are Liars', Michael Kinsley, The Washington Post

So Coffey will stink up the airways with his lies. Business as usual.

Coffey is REALLY going to compare Raniere's leaky wiki to Wikileaks?

There may be some relevant points re: the 1st Amendment but National Security vs. Rational Inquiry? Lmao. OMG, cannot wait. It's an affront to the DOS. It's treason in itself.

Anyone up for a Coffey conference call? What's the station call-in number?

FYI

“The reason is amazingly simple,” Mr. Housh said of the campaign. “We all believe that information should be free, and the Internet should be free.”

By late Sunday, there were at least 208 WikiLeaks mirror sites up and running.

“Cut us down,” said a message on the WikiLeaks Twitter feed on Sunday, “and the stronger we become."

From The Atlantic

"It is a fact of the current media landscape that the chilling effect of threatened legal action routinely stops reporters and editors from pursuing stories that might serve the public interest - and anyone who says otherwise is either ignorant or lying.

Every honest reporter and editor in America knows that the fact that most news organizations are broke, combined with the increasing threat of aggressive legal action by deep-pocketed entities, private and public, has made it much harder for good reporters to do their jobs, and ripped a hole in the delicate fabric that holds our democracy together.

The idea that Wikileaks is a threat to the traditional practice of reporting misses the point of what Assange and his co-workers have put together - a powerful tool that can help reporters circumvent the legal barriers that are making it hard for them to do their job.

Even as he criticizes the evident failures of the mainstream press, Assange insists that Wikileaks should facilitate traditional reporting and analysis. "We're the step before the first person (investigates)," he explained, when accepting Amnesty International's award for exposing police killings in Kenya. "Then someone who is familiar with that material needs to step forward to investigate it and put it in political context. Once that is done, then it becomes of public interest."


Wikileaks is a powerful new way for reporters and human rights advocates to leverage global information technology systems to break the heavy veil of government and corporate secrecy that is slowly suffocating the American press.

The likely arrest of Assange in Britain on dubious Swedish sex crimes charges has nothing to do with the importance of the system he has built, and which the US government seems intent on destroying with tactics more appropriate to the Communist Party of China --

Thank you John for your courage and the risk you take. It's important. I think sometimes about that poor girl who committed suicide. Thank you.

the real me said...

I see the connection of course, but that twit lawyer must realize that the 1st ammendment is on the side of Wikileaks, not the other way around. Those are inconvenient but actual newsworthy tid bits, and the more of a fuss is made, the more the general public will want to know what all of the fuss is about. Wikileaks may find some bumps in proving that their case serves in the public interest, because public interest is not simply defined as something the public is interested in... it must serve public good. If Wikileaks wants to do the public good- they should publish some stuff on Cheney, or Gonzales, something prosecutable for God's sake!

NXVIUM could never make any kind of impact on Nat Sec like exposing our most vulnerable landmarks, they don't carry that kind of clout about anything other than some half-assed ideas about multi-Cult'i child rearing. but hey, all you really have to do to find our hot spots is to ask any New Yorker "Look, if we're talkin bombs, what would suck most to see go??" and they will tell you which and why, then tell you their family history and maybe offer you a knish.

But I digress... Raniere and his fools are not international news, they are mean, heartless, soulless lemmings that hurt those that have the insight to challenge them. Hopefully these moths will eventually see that Keith is a suppressive to actual joy, and the only solution is for him to just disappear, and not be around any more. If they simply walk away, it really could be that simple...

Bad press leads to more bad press said...

As more and more bad press comes out about this Raniere guy more and more skeletons from his past are going to come out.

If Raniere has done anything illegal it is going to come out, it's just a matter of time. Most likely he and his followers are already being investigated.

It is going to make this cult shit look like Mother Teresa Day Camp.

It will be a good day for many when we see Raniere's face in every major new media exposed as the monster he really is.

It will not be long as his days of freedom are numbered. No amount of Coffey or Crock O'Shit bull shit legal lying can save him when the truth about this scumbag is out.

Coffey and Crock O'Shit will go down in history as the dirty bags who defended this asshole.

Al Capone. Crime: Rackateering. Imprisoned for Tax evasion.

Wes Snipes. Crime: Making terrible movies. Imprisoned for Tax evasion.

This is how it will go down.

It would appear that NXIVM is already being investigated for tax evasion.

Not only the Nurse is going to have to answer to tax evasion in Washington. Everyone who cooked up the story about NXIVM not doing business in Washington State because they were third party vendors who leased their training program out to the people running NXIVM programs there.

It appears local accounting firm JGL Management Counseling James G. Loperfido and
Kathy Russel who was or still is working for NXIVM.

Sounds like tax evasion to me. If NXVIM did it in Washington where else are they doing tax evasion?

From Andrew Sullivan:

We have entered a new age in terms of government information and transparency. Governments are now attempting to scapegoat Asssange or pressure companies like Mastercard to squelch the new asymmetry. They remind me of those running the record industry a decade ago or the newspaper industry five years ago or the magazine industry now.

Barret Brown observes the radicalism of the change:

There is no period in human history that matches the years between 1990 and 2010 in the degree to which the common terminology used at end would have been unrecognizable to those who lived at its beginning... [T]he central dynamic by which each of several billion people may now communicate and collaborate with any of those other several billion people has already been established, and all that remains now is for more of those people to realize the implications of this and then act upon those implications, as they have already begun to do, even if the media at large is still having trouble with the former.

The Emperor still has clothes. He just has no control over whether and when they are removed.

Get used to it Coffey. Lying on behalf of your client is not going to be so easy ever again.

Famous Black man, Wesley Snipes, who never confessed to killing for his beliefs, as Keith Raniere did, violated a stipulation agreement with the State's Attorney General's office as Raniere and NXIVM did, nor stalked, harassed, violated the privacy of, set up sting operations, induced suicides and sexually molested, etc. is behind bars. Only bar Raniere is behind tonight is probably Hooters! (Not that it's racial, just sayin...) Report:

People: Wesley Snipes finally heads to prison for tax evasion
By Tony Hicks
Contra Costa Times

Wesley Snipes is finally in the big house.

The 48-year-old actor reported to a federal prison Thursday in Pennsylvania to begin serving a three-year sentence for failing to file his taxes.

Snipes was convicted in April 2008 of three misdemeanor counts of willful failure to file income taxes.

After two years of unsuccessful appeals, Snipes accepted his fate and, on Thursday, turned in his street clothes for a prison uniform at the McKean Federal Correctional Institution in Lewis Run, Pa.

Snipes eventually will settle into the adjacent minimum security prison camp, Federal Bureau of Prison spokesman Edmond Ross told ABC News.

Ross added that Snipes, who surrendered around noon Thursday, was processed "without incident" and will be assigned a bunk after inmate orientation.

"Without incident" is law enforcement talk for "without karate."

CNN's Larry King asked Snipes if he was nervous about going to prison.

"I think any man would be nervous," Snipes said. "Given the length of time that they are suggesting that I be away from my family, away from my profession, away from my ability to provide for my family and for those who have depended upon me to contribute to society ".... I think anyone would be nervous about that."

Once again, it needs to be said: Fuck NXIVM.

Sorry for my poor english said...

About Snipes, it's very hard to swallow that he's in jail for 3 years. To me they are clearly making an example with him and I wonder if he deserves it. I think having a financial agreement would be enough !

About Raniere, I think he's too much confident in his 'intelligence' and 'manipulation' skills.

About local/federal fiscal authorities, I wonder what they are waiting for. The 'missing' hideouts will be found anyway, Raniere is too confident, he's too much on his "I'm the boss, each of them is a moron" fantasy.

A bureaucratic entity could seem brainless, sometimes. It's a slow and predictable machine in it's moves. But it's made of highly skilled individuals they enjoy investing themselves in revelant fights, as they did to find fraud evidences against Capone.

Raniere has invisible foes.

SFMPE glad to see you here again!

The comment "Raniere has invisible foes" is poetry and profound. 'Cause if he is not punished here he will be later no doubt. He violates everything we know about morals and ethics

Steve Coffey said "I don't do 1st Amm. work"

This struck me too. Made me think he was reading here before he went on the air. Blathering about what he does not know, believe or practice would be a bad idea.

Instead Coffey spent the time defending the 'persecuted' Joe Bruno. This while persuing cases against the innocent for a buck.

What jumped out at me during interview was Coffey's statement: "I am a Republican and I am a Liberal."

Say whaat?!? There are very few of such creatures in the USA anymore and they are young poor white women with little education and no interest in religion. Sounds like Bronfman sisters! Coffey can be the leader of their party!

I think this group breeds selfish, self-centered people with a sense of elitism based on nothing except group association, even more so than individuals are already predisposed to be.

Is the lawsuit against Continental still moving forward or was it settled does anyone know ?

I can't believe what shit these people are peddling and even more so that people believe in it.

When is the DA going to get involved and put this company out of business for misrepresentation to the public.

When are the bronfmans going to figure out they have been duped ?

When will the nurse flip on raniere and sing the blues all the way to federal prison ?

When will the world figure out that this "technology" is a bunch of crap that Raniere ripped of from lunatics suchs as scientologists.

When will the world finally realize that Raniere doesn't have a high IQ and that everything he says is a crock o' shit ??

When will Crockett and Coffey get into trouble with the bar association or better yet figure out that their clients are full of shit and that the huge fortune they are making is not worth it in the long run because the trouble will come with it eventually ?

When will the judges figure out that NXIVM claims are based on dog shit and have no validity in the justice system ?
