Klaus von Stutterheim Day: How A Berlin-Born New York Transplant Connects Big Sky Democrats To Jeffrey Epstein – by Travis Mateer

If you put “Klaus von Stutterheim” into the Department of Justice’s Epstein database, you won’t get any results. But, if you put in Stutterheim’s Deutsche Bank colleague, Steven Elkman, you’ll get emails like this:

This email is from 2010, three years before Epstein officially became a client of the bank that both Elkman and von Stutterheim worked for. We will return to this year shortly.

Officially retiring from Deutsche Bank in 2012, Klaus came to Montana and hit the ground running, immediately getting involved in Democratic politics by becoming a member of the Seeley Lake Community Council, as this application clearly shows:

Four years later, when the refugee question was getting Big Sky attention, this German-born banker pretended to be a naturally-born American and wrote “opinions” like this for the Seeley Lake Pathfinder:

A fiery debate has broken out about refugees and especially about the possibility of refugees in Missoula, fanned perhaps by the sometimes incendiary tenor of the Presidential primary debates.

But a more dispassionate examination of the facts suggests that things are nowhere near as dire as some fear.

At the outset, we need to acknowledge that Europe finds itself in the most serious crisis in a generation. Hundreds of thousands of refugees are pouring across open borders into Germany alone, a country smaller than Montana. And the combustible concentration of crowds of hundreds of single men in their twenties without any family ties has led to frightening attacks on women in Cologne and elsewhere. No wonder that many Germans are rethinking their original embracement of refugees and are fearful that things have spiraled out of control. And no wonder that some people in the U.S. who have watched those scenes on TV are anxious about what may happen here.

But the situation in the U.S. is literally worlds apart from what is going on in Europe.

After Klaus shares his concern for the continent he was born, he ends his op-ed without ever putting his own immigration history into context:

Finally, this letter would be incomplete if it did not remind my fellow Americans of our proud history of generosity and hospitality. This country was born of refugees fleeing persecution, and we have openly accepted wave upon wave of immigrants who have greatly contributed to our national wealth and to our magnificent cultural diversity, who have made us who we are today, still, in my opinion, the most exciting nation on earth.

Let us open our hearts and say, “Welcome!” to at least a handful of our fellow women and men whose lives have been cruelly torn away from them and who linger in desolation and destitution today.

Remember, this was 2016, the year Hillary Clinton ran for president. And who just shockingly claimed immigration has gone too far? That’s right, Hillary Clinton.

The speed at which Klaus von Stutterheim involved himself with Democratic politics in Big Sky Country is curious, but maybe this is just the kind of thing a retired banker born in Berlin likes to do.

I mean, it’s not like some Epstein connected power broker like Andrew Farkas was visiting Big Sky in 2010, right?

Who is Andrew Farkas and why was he hanging out in a tent in “Greenough” in August of 2010? Was this a Paws Up Ranch meeting like the one Elon Musk, Sam Altman, and Peter Thiel had last June?

For readers not familiar with Andrew Farkas’ Epstein connection, which I assume is most of you, here’s some context:

Andrew Farkas become a prominent figure in New York City commercial real estate in the 1990s. In 1990 Farkas founded Insignia Financial Group which he took public in 1993. In 1996 he purchased the brokerage firm Edward S. Gordon and Company. In 1998 he sold his portfolio of residential properties to AIMCO.

Farkas’ primary investment vehicle is Island Capital Group, set up as a merchant bank. The company had a subsidiary, Island Global Yachting (IGY), which developed and managed marinas. IGY’s first project was Yacht Haven Grande on Saint Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands which began in 2001 and opened in 2007.

In 2007 Island Capital acquired the Montauk Yacht Club Resort and Marina in Montauk, New York. The property was sold in 2017 to George Filopolous.

In 2010 he acquired Centerline Holding Company, a major commercial real estate mortgage servicer.

And here’s the part from Farkas’ Wikipedia entry that highlights his connection to Epstein:

It came to light after Jeffrey Epstein’s second arrest that Epstein owned 50% of the American Yacht Harbour at Red Hook; the other half was owned by Farkas. The partnership came about in 2007 when Epstein was having financial, regulatory and legal problems.

In 2010, just a few months before Farkas visited this part of Montana, Klaus von Stutterheim was riding horses and writing about it just a few miles from where Farkas would be staying in a tent. Hmmm.

Before I get to the hilarious Missoula County Commissioners proclamation that awkwardly includes a reference to pizza, let’s see what Klaus thought about Missoula’s former Sheriff, T.J. McDermott, the guy at the helm when the Sheriff’s office euthanized Sean Stevenson.

It wasn’t just words that Klaus committed to his preferred candidates, like T.J. McDermott, it was money, which is publicly available information. That is how I was able to find this:

In addition to money from the von Stutterheim’s, I also found a donation from Susan Hay Patrick, the director of United Way of Missoula County and a recipient of Federal money through the Sheriff’s Office via Project Safe Neighborhood when she isn’t ignoring a fake anti-trafficking non-profit called the LifeGuard Group.

Here is Susan Hay Patrick’s donation to her favorite Sheriff:

And here is how Susan Hay Patrick spends Uncle Sam’s money from a U.S. Attorney’s Office press release:

“The Missoula County Sheriff’s Office looks forward to this partnership with the United Way to provide assistance through Missoula Substance Abuse Connect to those in our community who are dealing with addictions and substance abuse issues. I’d also like to thank United Way of Missoula CEO Susan Hay Patrick for her efforts on this project,” Missoula County Sheriff TJ McDermott said.

Missoula Substance Abuse Connect will be managed by United Way of Missoula County and a volunteer board of business and community leaders. The project director is Shannan Sproull, who is an authority on substance abuse prevention with decades of experience in the public and private sectors. The project chair is Janna Lundquist, a respected organizational consultant and former United Way board president with an extensive background in business and nonprofit leadership. Project leaders are recruiting an executive committee and working group from among the 40 public and private coalition member organizations.

PSN Missoula County’s partners include the U.S. Attorney’s Office; Missoula County Attorney’s Office; Montana Department of Justice’s Prosecution Services Bureau, Highway Patrol and Division of Criminal Investigation; the Montana Department of Correction’s Adult Probation and Parole Division; the Missoula Police Department; the Missoula County Sheriff’s Office; Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives; Drug Enforcement Administration; FBI, Homeland Security Investigations and the U.S. Marshal’s Service.

For more information about Missoula Substance Abuse Connect, contact Susan Hay Patrick, CEO, United Way of Missoula County, susan@MissoulaUnitedWay.org; 406-360-0596.

Getting back to Klaus von Stutterheim and the kind of people who appreciate him, I have to highlight Pete Talbot, son of John Talbot, the retired CIA agent who married into our local newspaper empire, Lee Enterprises, and the man who has a plaque inside the Journalism building on campus, where I make a point to throw away my trash in the trash can right below it.

Here’s Pete Talbot’s appreciation for the Berlin-born banker who loves horses, Democrats, and non-violent refugees who would never rape anyone:

What is well dissevered? Achieving the status of having local elected officials gush about conserving land, eating pizza, and opening Montana up like the legs of a two-bit whore for child-fucking, jerky-munching sociopaths.

Happy STUTTER-BUTTER DAY everyone!

Weaponized Protection Orders, Non-Compliant Sex Offenders, And The Case Of Brandon Wayne Bryant – by Travis Mateer

After failing to pay rent for several months, and a subsequent physical altercation with his roommate, the man pictured above, who goes by “Jim”, got a local court to implement a temporary order of protection to keep him safe.

To better understand this process, here are the statutes and legal language that describes this concept, and the requirements that need to be met, in order to get legally protected.

With this in mind, let’s ask ourselves a simple question: why would a person who is feeling so unsafe that they seek a Temporary Order of Protection choose to go to a physical location where they know the person they are terrified of will be? If there truly exists a “REASONABLE APPREHENSION” of danger, wouldn’t this act undermine that claim?

Yesterday, during the anti-war protest that’s been happening on Fridays at 12:30pm every week for years, Brandon Bryant, the JSOC drone-program whistleblower, was in attendance when his former roommate saw him from across the street and CHOSE to close the gap.

My understanding is that Brandon Bryant ALSO has a temporary protection order against “Jim”, who has a more accurate name that he doesn’t like circulating, since the name “Bryce Walker” connects to his incest conviction and the requirement that he register as a sex offender here in Missoula.

I wonder if the people at the Missoula Interfaith Collaborative know about this history, since “Jim” seems to have some kind of official role at this non-profit working with marginalized populations from a faith-based perspective (meaning suckers for a redemptive sob story from convicted pedophiles).

Not only did I see all this trouble for Brandon Bryant brewing back in August, when I wrote the preemptive threat assessment that I later expounded on in this post about the cultural context of a double homicide related to drug trafficking, I’ve been the only one to continue writing about Bryant’s alleged assault of the four badges who beat and tased him for not putting his stick down fast enough.

The combination of stick and verbal stones landed Brandon Bryant in serious trouble before, five years ago, but, after just two hours of deliberation, a jury of his peers returned a not guilty verdict in 2021 on the felony intimidation charge he faced and beat:

A Missoula District Court jury took just two hours to acquit a veteran accused of intimidating the City Council.

In 2020, Brandon Bryant landed in jail shortly after he brought a wooden Japanese training sword to a council meeting and criticized the use of special property tax money.

Prosecutors used that and an edited video of Bryant to charge him with a felony.

This week, three council members, Bryan von Lossberg, Gwen Jones and Julie Merritt all told the jury Bryant scared them.

But four council members and the mayor testified they did not fear him.

The feelings of City Council were VERY important in the County Attorney’s attempt to criminally charge Brandon Bryant five years, but when someone approached HIM at Charlie B’s just five months ago and called him a WOKE FAGGOT, to his face, leading to an brief altercation after Brandon’s attempt to video record this man’s aggression was cut short by a physical attack, our local authorities made NO EFFORT to investigate what happened INSIDE the bar, nor any effort to secure video evidence of this altercation, which led to the 911 call, which led to our four terrified and apparently poorly trained Missoula police officer resorting to excessive force on an officially disabled Veteran.

While Brandon Bryant has done himself NO favors by how his subsequent online posts have expressed anger and feelings of abandonment and persecution–posts which have led to additional criminal charges that will be adjudicated by this town’s criminal “justice” system–there’s a wide-range of data one might consider that doesn’t overtly name people loudly and angrily, but nonetheless should be considered when parsing out what might be happening. Having gone through something similar myself, I went scrolling through “Jim’s” publicly available Facebook posts to see if any red flags appeared, like perhaps a more subtle effort to gaslight someone by implying they are “crazy”.

I offer this tidbit of context because, as someone who has been meeting on a weekly basis with the person I believe “Jim” is referring to here, I’ve had nothing but good interactions, including chats about how to manage strong feelings while being actively targeted, thus triggered, leading to responses that can occur in physiological ways when you have PTSD and other underlying issues from serving in America’s armed forces.

When I had a temporary restraining order put in place nearly three years ago now, the “substitute” municipal judge who knew my “petitioner” denied the objection I raised, denied my request for a postponement, since I lacked legal counsel and she did not, and then the substitute judge (Judge Streano was on vacation, I was told) also ignored one of the final emails I received from my petitioner when I tried leaving this year-long, toxic relationship.

If this was a football game, and I was Brandon Bryant’s football coach, I would remind him that it’s usually the “reaction” that gets the flag or penalty. I’ve also been trying to explain that, at the end of the day, unless more conventional media takes on our stories, no one is going to care about our Facebook posts or blog posts.

What I’m trying to do here, with this one, is share some of that highly valued “lived experience” our victim culture loves strategically deploying for their preferred demographics of dependency. In the spirit of lived experience, imagine trying to breakup up from someone and receiving this set of conditions followed by four consequences of saying no:

Before I get to the consequences, I will add that the people closest to me advised me to stop all contact. Was that good advice?

I don’t know, but from a more objective vantage point, I think the advice Brandon Bryant got yesterday from BOTH his therapist and Public Defender to self-report for clarification at the police station after NOT getting initially arrested was not good advice. Instead of clarification, Bryant was arrested and is currently sitting at the Missoula County Detention Facility.

Thanks to an eerily similar process, I also spent time at this facility because I didn’t think further direct engagement with someone exhibiting signs of borderline personality disorder making unreasonable demands and issuing threats which were definitely followed through on with maximum impact.

While I wouldn’t wish the experiences of lawfare on anyone, there are valuable lessons I have acquired along the way, so sometime next week I may try to explain why Sheriffs running county jails across the country might look at sex offenders differently than the general public thinks they would.

Next week will also be a challenging one for Mr. Bryant, who will exit jail to return to the courtroom for pre-trial hearings as judgement day, once again, comes knocking. And, like so many other local topics I am ahead of the curve on, expect the paid reporters to start covering this story eventually, maybe even the one with the amazing mustache who seemed really grumpy with me for saying hi the other day at Flippers.

Thanks for reading!

UPDATE: in thinking about the comment I highlighted from “Jim’s” Facebook account, the timeline doesn’t fit the “roommate” being Mr. Bryant, but that brings up the question of how offenders go about updating their information regarding where they are staying, something I will look at in a later post.

Media Photo Manipulation And Stupid Documentaries For Dumb Missoulians – by Travis Mateer

Did CityNews get caught using AI tools to manipulate the image of the Tumbler Ridge school shooter? Yes, it appears the image of the shooter was changed to make the shooter appear more feminine, and that’s fucked up. Check out this link for a technical breakdown on how this effect was achieved.

This comes on the heels of Alex Pretti’s image getting similarly manipulated. Is legacy media trying to become MORE despised than they already are?

This isn’t media, it’s propaganda, and any platform engaging in this kind of manipulation should treated accordingly.

Moving on to documentaries for dumb Missoulians, the Big Sky Documentary Wankfest is kicking off today and “The Pulp” wants you to know what kind of woke bullshit you can recharge your toxic empathy batteries with.

I’ll only be highlighting the two most obnoxious examples of this documentary film-fest’s dedication to liberal values, starting with “Wood Street”, a documentary from the “Activism and Justice” category described like this:

Films in the festival’s Activism & Justice category are examples of storytelling that can — or already have — changed things. Maybe not the world, but a place or a group of people, and the mindsets and policies that govern them.

Take Wood Street, which follows members of Oakland, California’s largest unhoused encampment — particularly John and LaMonté — as they organize against eviction and fight to stay in the community they built. Rather than relying on outside “experts,” the film centers the lived experience of unhoused people themselves, showing that those most impacted are also the truest authorities on the issues. The filmmakers have used screenings and conversations with the community as spaces for dialogue and organizing, inviting audiences to reckon with how housing, policy, and dignity intersect in real time.

Who cares about drug addiction and rampant violence when you can virtue signal for retarded liberal audiences? What a crock of shit, especially the claim that people in the throws of addiction are the “truest authorities” on the issues.

If you want an authority worth listening to, I suggest someone who has gotten OUT of the vicious cycle fueling homeless encampments, someone like Ginny Burton, an incredible woman with two shitty parents, especially her mother, who started giving Ginny drugs at the age of 7.

Ginny was raised by two drug-addicted parents. Her mom had never worked, and her dad was in the military when they first got together. Eventually, he separated from the military and started a family that, according to Ginny, they were ill-equipped to support and raise.

Ginny was one of seven kids, the third child, and the first girl born into the family. It was Ginny’s mother who introduced her to drugs, namely marijuana, at age 7, and then to methamphetamine at age 12. By age 14, Ginny was smoking crack cocaine, and by age 16, she was raped by a man who sold drugs to her mother. At age 17, she attempted suicide, and by age 23, she was a full-blown heroin addict.

The other documentary dumb liberal assholes can watch is about entitled Bozeman football cocaine dealers who killed someone and, thanks to liberal retardation, THIS is the angle taken by the documentary film makers:

Big Sky Falling is a new documentary reexamining a scandal that rocked Montana State University and Bobcat Athletics in 2006, which included a cocaine-dealing ring and the conviction of two former MSU athletes in a homicide. To this day, it’s unclear who exactly pulled the trigger that killed Jason Wright in a drug robbery gone wrong. Big Sky Falling doesn’t linger on the mystery, or the cocaine-fueled orgies in Bozeman party houses. The filmmakers seem more interested in a nuanced, compassionate portrayal of the convicted men at the center of the story, and the way two young, underprivileged black men were treated in a white community. (As a side note, the filmmakers received impressive access inside two prisons — it’s rare to see cameras brought to the other side of the glass.)

Yes, you are reading this correctly, the filmmaker’s “nuanced, compassionate portrayal” of a violent crime is nothing more than a piece of woke propaganda intent on playing the “underprivileged” card for entitled football players who came to Montana, got heavily involved in abusing and distributing cocaine, and then killed someone for money, but why linger on things like “cocaine-fueled orgies” when you can instead tantalize Missoula virtue-signalers with toxic empathy slop?

Since Brandon Miller has been sentenced to a lengthy prison term for, you know, KILLING someone, I’m wondering if this documentary is trying to influence the judicial system in order to get Miller released early so he can, you know, help the children.

During closing statements, Lambert said Miller wanted to be part of a cocaine ring involving other former MSU athletes. Lambert said Miller admitted to another man that he shot Wright because Wright saw Miller’s face. Lambert also said Miller owned the murder weapon, hid the weapon and the gun had his fingerprints on it.

“That points to this defendant being the murderer, not John Lebrum,” Lambert said. “Branden Miller pulled the trigger and he killed Jason Wright.”

Ohman said during closing arguments that Miller has a lot of redeeming qualities, including an intellectual curiosity. He said Miller wants to pursue his education and learn about the world. He said Miller has the support of friends and family members.

“They all have good things to say about him,” Ohman said, adding that Miller can someday contribute to society, possibly by working with children.

If this documentary helps Miller get out of prison early, it wouldn’t be the first time a documentary has played this kind of role. Before Paradise Lost, Damien Echols was just a young psychopath rotting in prison for the brutal murder of three young boys in Memphis. But, thanks to celebrities like Johnny Depp and Eddie Vedder, Damien Echols is now a FREE psychopath able to appear on stage with Eddie when he isn’t using Pearl Jam to politically pimp for shit-heels like Democrat, Jon Tester.

Though I am but one man, expect to see me around town this coming week engaging these narrative control puppets with different strategies of cognitive infiltration. Yes, I’m sure Legos will be involved.

Thanks for reading!

Poop On The Ceiling: A Story About Housing The Homeless – by Travis Mateer

How did Jon Turner get poop on the ceiling? Was it purposeful or accidental?

Obviously, an eviction would be forthcoming, since the overall state of the apartment was atrocious, but determining the poop mystery could help make a case, if the Missoula County Attorney gave a shit, that Jon Turner was a danger to himself and others, thus would need to be legally declared incompetent for his own protection.

I remember this case quite well, since it was one of the few times I got to hear the gallows humor of first responders as we waited around to see if we could put Jon Turner in jail for the night. Since Jon was fucked up on his preferred drug of choice, which was booze, we couldn’t be sure he wouldn’t try turning on the broken stovetop and starting a fire that could kill everyone in his building.

About a year before Jon got poop on the ceiling, he was being a vile and belligerent drunk at the Sleepy Inn, where he was in the process of being kicked out and dealing with cops. When I showed up at the motel, at the end of my shift coordinating the Homeless Outreach Teams, the cops dealing with Jon were delighted, and quickly left me alone to deal with a homeless drunk man in a wheelchair who could NOT stay at the Poverello Center, because we had kicked him out for breaking the rules, and could NOT remain in his motel room, because he was throwing things against the wall and bother the Native family living next door.

What did I do?

I pushed Jon in his wheelchair, east on Broadway, all the way to St. Pats hospital where the security guard explained to me that Jon was trespassed from the hospital and wouldn’t be admitted.

“Ok,” I said, “so call the cops and let’s get him arrested.” Reluctantly the security guard made the call, and when the cop showed up, I had to explain reality to them.

“Listen,” I said, “Jon can’t stay at the Poverello, and he just got kicked out of his motel room. If you want to get 911 welfare calls on him all night, or if you want to just let him die in the cold, fine, but getting him arrested is my last option. I will follow up tomorrow, call his payee for money, then see if any other motel will take him. He’s been kicked out of most of them.”

The cop was hesitant at first, but since he knew I was right, he complied with my request to use a trespassing charge from a hospital (the irony) to keep Jon from expiring on the streets of this stupid, retarded, toxically empathic town.

Yesterday, at the Housing, Redevelopment, and Community Programs Committee, I told an abbreviated version of my “poop on the ceiling” story and explained how our community’s lack of substance abuse programs ensures LOTS of failure (you can view my comment here).

After throwing a little shade at the new Unified Code and the industry expectation it won’t help affordable housing, I reminded the councilors around the “horseshoe” that the Headwaters Foundation sits on $80-100 million dollars, if they ever wanted to tap something substantive instead of just blaming the state while obsessing over taxing tourists.

Later in the day, while standing in the alleyway where Mike Nugent kissed Jordan Hess’ Mayoral mood ring, I was telling a street person how the Missoula County Attorney’s Office is actually the one killing homeless people like Lorrie Eisenbarth, and how the 60 year old woman sleeping and pissing herself at Barnes and Noble, then pepper spraying the barista when he led her outside, is also the kind of situation I suspect the Missoula County Attorney’s Office could address, legally, instead of the unofficial psych-ward known as “jail” where the woman, Erin Riggs, spent three days for “aggravated felony burglary” before being released.

While this alleyway conversation was happening between myself, the street person, and my companion (the man being criminally charged for losing a fight to four people with weapons and badges), a bunch of City Council members walked by, providing a GREAT opportunity for me to test their civic knowledge with my enhanced sign!

“JEREMIAH PETERSEN” said Kristen Jordan, to which I said…

“Correct!” then added, “But, in my latest post, the word I used was PUSSY!”

Next week I’ll be examining a new narrative push to glad-hand the Hip Strip condo abomination, including asking a question no one else will about the puff piece: why is a man who fondly remembers the ex-CIA turned newspaper man, John Talbot, ALSO admitting in print to secretly spying on “horny” people making out on paid work time?

Thanks for reading!

Rock, Paper, Unicorns! – by Travis Mateer

Did you know jokes can be weapons in a strategy to deflect attention from matters of serious importance? It’s true. That’s why I found this X post to be counterproductive to the effort of discerning what the fuck is going on in this world run by child-fuckers.

Actually, “Patel_Patriot”, Unicorns ARE symbolic of potentially sexually exploitive relationships, which is why I found the dirty stuffed unicorns at an abandoned homeless camp to be significant enough to report on in conjunction with that dead body found last November that STILL has not been publicly identified yet (link).

Before I get to the most recent news story about this area of town, let’s see what a smart lady like Jessica Banks thinks about Unicorns and how funny they can be when you imagine Jeffrey Epstein riding one bareback at fantasy island:

Jessica Banks? Yes, she’s a very smart gal with a company called Rock Paper Robot:

I don’t know if Jessica Banks knows this, but tweakers can also have kinetic furniture, and sometimes their camps, where this kinetic furniture proliferates, goes BANG, though this article doesn’t ever explain what that bang was. A gun? A bomb? A meth lab?

Shortly after 12:30 on February 7, 2026, multiple officers from the Missoula Police Department were dispatched to the Kim Williams Trail near the University of Montana campus. Dispatch received a report of gunshots being discharged near the river, followed by an individual yelling. 

Sergeants from MPD and UMPD were the first two officers to arrive on scene. They spoke with two individuals who both reported hearing gunshots coming from down the trail. One of the witnesses indicated that an involved party was a transient female. Another officer observed a female walking east through the brush between the trail and the river. 

She explained that she and “Curstin” were camped approximately 50-yards east. She said that she did not hear gunshots, but heard a loud “boom.” She said the disturbance occurred between herself and “Curstin” because he had pneumonia and was not taking his medication. During their interactions with the female, multiple officers reported seeing indications of impairment that would be consistent with the consumption of stimulants. 

Well, what happened? Was Curstin shootin’? That little detail must not have made the report:

An officer located a tent that was near the Kim Williams trail, directly across the river from 1515 E. Broadway Street. The officer observed some movement and saw an adult male emerge from a tent. The male, who was later identified as 43-year-old Curstin Teigen, disappeared into the brush.

Because Teigen was believed to be potentially armed with a firearm, officers did not directly approach him but began making announcements for him to come out. The announcements continued from approximately 12:56 p.m. to 1:49 p.m. when a drone was utilized to find Teigen hiding in the bushes. 

Teigen was lying down in a fetal position next to a tree. Teigen ultimately stood up on his own and began walking toward officers. At this point in time, officers still believed Teigen could be armed with a firearm due to the reported gunshots. For these reasons, an arrest team was put in place to immediately place Teigen into handcuffs. Teigen was informed he was being placed under arrest for obstructing a peace officer, but he was verbally and physically non-compliant with the officer’s demands. 

Following a search incident to arrest, an officer located a clear plastic baggie of methamphetamine on Teigen’s person. The officer also located a piece of tin foil containing black residue, a broken glass pipe, and a pipe wrapped in a blue surgical glove. 

Teigen is currently being charged with felony criminal possession of dangerous drugs, obstructing a peace officer, and criminal possession of drug paraphernalia. His bond was set at $25,000.

Another Unicorn of note in the Epstein Files is Brock Pierce, Mr. Unicorn Ventures. Sorry, Crypto-Bros, things aren’t looking good at all, are they.

Brock Pierce? Yes, Brock Pierce:

There’s so much more to report, but this is the free blog. My new research project crossed the 150 page mark, and I’m still shopping the project I completed last year, which puts Missoula into the context it deserves, so stay tuned for opportunities to obtain the long-form version of what I’m doing, where all the juicy excerpts from these things called BOOKS are contained.

And, as always, thanks for reading!
