Month: March 2026

When I wrote about philanthropic Epstein and the “Fortunate Blessing Foundation” I didn’t realize how prominent a member of its advisory board, Gavin de Becker, was. Now that de Becker is popping his head up to comment ON the Epstein network, let’s take a closer look to see if, perhaps, this security guy is a PART of the Epstein Network.

While an email about an organization that Gavin de Becker has lent his “expertise” to as an advisory board member isn’t proof of anything nefarious, per se, it gets circumstantially weirder when you consider a passage from de Becker’s book, The Gift of Fear, which I found a cheap copy of online.

Here’s the excerpt where Gavin de Becker references BOTH Alan Dershowitz and pizza in relation to the O.J. Simpson case. For further context this is taken from the chapter titled “Intimate Enemies (domestic violence)”:

They told us, “Just because a man beats his wife doesn’t mean he killed her,” and that’s true. But what’s that got to do with O.J. Simpson, who beat his wife, broke into her home, threatened her (at least once with a gun), terrorized her, and stalked her? That behavior puts him near the center of the predictive circle for wife murder.

The Scheme Team’s observation is a little like saying, “Just because someone buys dough doesn’t mean he’s going to make pizza,” and that’s true, but if he buys dough, spreads it around on a tin tray, adds tomato sauce, adds cheese, and puts it in the oven, then, even if Simpson lawyer Alan Dershowitz tells you differently, you can be comfortable predicting that pizza is being made. (198)

Not only is Alan Dershowitz a well known Epstein-connected character, he also is the kind of guy ready to provide an interview when someone is unfairly maligned as a “cannibal cop” and unjustly persecuted for thought crimes that include writing about kidnapping, torturing, murdering, cooking, and eating women.

Gavin de Becker is quite an interesting figure with some very compelling highlights for his security resume, which his Wikipedia entry clearly indicates:

In the 1980s, together with the United States Marshals Service, de Becker co-designed the MOSAIC Threat Assessment Systems, which is used to screen threats to justices of the Supreme Court of the United States, members of United States Congress, and senior officials of the Central Intelligence Agency. Los Angeles County Law enforcement agencies adopted MOSAIC in 1997 to help police manage and reduce spousal abuse cases that might escalate to homicide.

In 1983, he investigated a stalker for Olivia Newton-John, Sheena Easton, and Cher. He also provided his services to celebrities like Richard Burton, Dolly Parton, Jane Fonda, Joan Rivers, Victoria Principal, Tina Turner, and John Travolta.

He was twice appointed to the President’s Advisory Board at the United States Department of Justice, in 1982 and 1989.

The work de Becker did with celebrities must be why actor Miguel Ferrer used him as inspiration for the FBI agent, Albert Rosenfield, in Twin Peaks–a curious data point I ran across on Twin Peaks Day (February 24th).

I’ll end this post with another synchronicity, this one so absurd I really had to pinch myself.

My brief scanning of Gavin de Becker’s book ended when I got a hankering for some ice cream, so I put a piece of paper to mark the place where de Becker was talking about restraining orders, writing stuff like this:

Lawyers, police, TV newspeople, counselors, psychologists, and even some victims’ advocates recommend restraining orders wholesale. They are a growth industry in this country. We should, perhaps, consider putting them on the New York Stock Exchange, but we should stop telling people that a piece of paper will automatically protect them, because when applied to certain types of cases, it may do the opposite. It is dangerous to promote a specific treatment without first diagnosing the problem in the individual case.

…

The orders do get the troubled women out of the police station and headed for court, perhaps to have continuing problems, perhaps not, and they do make arrests simpler if the man continues his unwanted pursuit. Thus, TRO’s clearly serve police and prosecutors. But they do not always serve victims.

After I got my ice cream, a large crowd of people came in. It wasn’t until I got outside that I realized the group of about a dozen people were staff from Missoula’s Municipal court, including the judge that presided in my own restraining order case. Yeah.

I chatted amicably and casually in the warm afternoon sun with the three judges I wrote critically about five years ago, then parted ways, wondering how much more Truman Show my life was going to get in this town.

Thanks for reading!

Yesterday I had just finished paying off some lawfare fines at the Missoula County Courthouse when a fight broke out outside. A drunk Native woman had put her hands on the shoulders of a drunk white man, who reacted by pushing her away and screaming at her. After yelling at them to chill out, I called 911, which brought out BOTH city police and Sheriff Deputies.

Oh, and Matt Jennings, the lead Missoula County Attorney, was also present and witnessed the whole thing. “Did you just see a felony, Matt?” I loudly asked him as we waited for law enforcement to arrive.

While Matt Jennings briefly spoke with the Native woman before she fled and got onto a bus, I spoke with the man, Doug Bradbury, who I wrote about a few years ago because of his claim that his grandfather was Norris Bradbury, the scientist who succeeded Robert Oppenheimer at Los Alamos.

I stuck around long enough to provide my eye-witness account to police that Doug reacted to physical contact initiated by the Native woman. Doug, I learned, was finally in housing, so if he got arrested and charged for something he had simply reacted to, he would more than likely lose that housing.

As of this morning it appears NO arrest was made of Doug Bradbury, and that’s good. What’s not good for the County Attorney’s Office, according to KGVO, are lenient sentences for sex offenders, and these lenient sentences has Jennings and the rest of our Missoula County prosecutors wondering why their efforts aren’t producing the results they are hoping for.

The Missoula County Attorney’s Office filed 15 new felony complaints this week, which is one more than last week and right around the weekly average. According to County Attorney Matt Jennings, five of those were violent crimes against persons.

“Three of them were family violence, including a kidnapping that actually happened while the victim was trying to report a partner or family member assault to law enforcement,” Jennings said. “The defendant grabbed her, put her in a car, threatened her, and took her against her will. She was very clever and said she was going to recant. She got him drive back to the police station where she was able to get help and he got arrested.”

There was another case where a male threatened to kill his partner and then push her down the stairs. Luckily, Jennings said all of those victims are safe now.

Over the past decade, Jennings said his office has spent a lot of time pouring resources into supporting survivors and victims of sexual violence. He said they have really reformed the way they approach things from 15 years ago.

“We have a whole special victims unit prosecution unit where 7 attorneys have a reduced caseload to focus on that victim input and getting the right results,” Jennings said. “We also have victim witness coordinators that are constantly updating victims and getting their feedback on the cases. We’ve been going to a lot more trials and we’ve been having a lot of success on convictions.”

When you read this excerpt, the felony cases being charged this past week includes one in which a THREAT of harm was criminally charged. Did the man who made the threats actually DO anything violent, or are words enough to criminally charge someone?

By the County’s own admission, they have poured LOTS of resources into victims, so much so that I’m afraid that County Attorney’s are now hallucinating victims that are actually the opposite, like Tristan McVey.

Last week, by using the dude pictured above as the alleged victim of a “robbery” when someone stood up to his aggression and took his skateboard, the County Attorney’s Office LOST at trial because Tristan McVey is FAR from being a victim.

To help make the defense’s case that McVey wasn’t a victim, a blog post I wrote last July allowed ME to be an official witness at the trial last week, something the County prosecutors tried unsuccessfully to block before they lost the whole thing.

At the time I wrote my blog post I didn’t know McVey’s name because, thanks to the Sheriff’s Office refusal to share mugshots, I couldn’t connect the face to the name. This change in policy, it’s important to note, was the result of Sheriff Jeremiah Petersen’s “leadership” after rumors emerged that some people (cops?) were running an illegal pay-to-remove-pics extortion racket from a Facebook version of “Missoula Mugs”.

If I had been able to connect the image of the asshole who caused LOTS of problems downtown last summer to his actual name, my blog post would have included past arrests that McVey earned for himself, like his attack on a taxi driver near the Poverello Center in 2024:

A Missoula man was arrested for assaulting a cab driver near the Poverello Center over the weekend.

Tristian McVey, 25, is being charged with assault with a weapon and criminal mischief for allegedly breaking a car window with a baton.

According to court documents, on Saturday McVey was standing in the middle of the road near the 1100 block of Broadway Street, when a cab driver stopped.

McVey refused to move, threatened the driver, and smashed out the driver’s side window with a weapon.

Three years before the 2024 arrest, McVey was threatening his fellow homeless peers with a knife.

On Monday, a Missoula County Sheriff’s Office Deputy was dispatched to the Safe Outdoor Homeless Camp. It was reported that 27-year-old Tristian Mcvey had threatened another resident at the camp with a knife. When the deputy arrived, he was approached by a staff member and the resident who had been threatened.

The resident said he has known Mcvey for several months and never had any problems with him until the last couple of days. The resident was cooking a meal for other residents on the camp barbeque when Mcvey came up to him and called him several names. Mcvey then punched the resident in the left shoulder multiple times.

And then there’s these charges from 2013, when McVey was just 19 years old:

A man accused of trying to elude police in Missoula was charged with three felony counts of criminal endangerment and four misdemeanors at a court appearance Monday.

Missoula police tell us 19-year-old Tristan McVey was pulled over Saturday evening for driving on a suspended license.

After McVey came to a stop, police tell NBC Montana he accelerated past officers and into a residential neighborhood on Missoula’s westside.

According to officials that’s where he ran over two small trees and nearly plowed into a Missoula mom and her son.

Tristan McVey testified in last week’s trial from jail, where he’s been since last November (same month that dead body showed up at a homeless camp down the Kim Williams trail). Here’s the charges that McVey is currently facing from the same prosecutorial office that tried unsuccessfully to depict him as a victim so they could put SOMEONE ELSE in prison.

I think this context is important to consider as Jeremiah Petersen attempts to coast into another term as Sheriff, but just because no HUMAN has filed to run, that doesn’t mean Petersen’s candidacy will go unchallenged.

Pirate Booty, if elected, would BRING BACK mugshots, retake the County Courthouse lawn (which Jeremiah has retreated from), and might even aspire to spell names right on the jail roster! And then there’s the jail CONVERSION program I’m working on with Pirate Booty, as opposed to the “diversion” con-job established by Jeremiah’s predecessor, T.J. “The Euthanizer” McDermott.

So stay tuned, and thanks for reading.

Montana conservatives enjoy getting their marching orders from conservative talk radio, so this morning Aaron Flint did his job (producing propaganda for low-information chickenhawks) by explaining Trump didn’t START a war on Friday, he’s simply ENDING the one started before little Aaron was born.

These war whores must be REALLY HAPPY to have those uncomfortable Epstein conversations waning now that Israel-firsters have their holy war going. But will a holy war be enough to stop the goyim from wondering how compromised EVERYTHING is by the child-fucking class?

When you put “Iran” into the Epstein search bar there are over a hundred pages of results, like this Deutsche Bank document talking about exploiting a trade loophole to sell heavy equipment.

I included this document because Deutsche Bank is where Klaus von Stutterheim worked before he “retired” to Big Sky Country to ride horses, donate money to Democrat Sheriffs, and promote refugee resettlement in Missoula. Another document I found related to Iran, an email, features that Middle Eastern Sultan with an odd Missoula connection and a seeming affinity for torture videos.

When you consider my post about philanthropic Epstein and the strange disaster relief efforts of the Fortunate Blessings Foundation, the role of Kate Delahunty and the company that the Sultan stepped down from, DP World, seems worth looking into.

Moving on from crisis management to Legos, you might be wondering HUH? Epstein and Legos? Is Travis just sore that someone else is opening a Lego store in Missoula later this month?

Yeah, it would be cool to live in a world where child-fucking psychopaths weren’t musing about a form of creativity I use and enjoy myself, but this ain’t that world.

So, who is Jeffrey Epstein’s Lego man? The inventor of the Segway, Dean Kamen, pictured below with Jeffrey and Richard Branson.

Kamen, a well known inventor from an influential New Hampshire family (the state where Ghislaine Maxwell was “caught”), is so closely associated with the Lego brand, details of his partnership can be found at Lego’s website.

See how Lego League Jr. “attracts 40,000 children from 41 countries“? Is that why Dean, Jeff, and Richy are smiling so big?

Or, maybe they’re smiling at the thought of Ariane de Rothschild shooting her own bankers.

When the world becomes unsafe for these monsters to move around in, it will be a better world. Until then, I suggest working on NOT being an enabling cog in this disgusting machine.

Yesterday I sat with my puppet candidate for Sheriff and watched some Missoula protestors put up their NO ICE protest signs. Since I had my own cardboard sign, and a hat with money in it, the older woman who approached me must have thought I was a homeless panhandler.

“I just gave all my money to that other guy so he would move,” the woman said, pointing to where “Johnny” has been hanging out for months near Betty’s Divine on the Hip Strip. “I’m sorry I don’t have more money for you.”

“You gave Johnny money so he would move away from your protest spot?” I asked, making sure I heard her correctly.

“Yes,” she replied, “but he said he didn’t need the money.”

I explained the finer points of drug trafficking for this ignorant liberal protestor, then explained that MY sign was testing the knowledge of locals when it came to the man trying to keep his Sheriff job.

“Do you know the name of our Sheriff?” I asked. “I’ll give you the money in the hat if you do.”

“No,” she replied, “and I would like to hear more, but I have to get back.”

After the protestor scampered back to the cognitive safety of her tribe, I packed up my shit and left.

Four years ago the skim-and-give slush fund created by Tax Increment Financing and doled by the Missoula Redevelopment Agency inspired locals to rise up and protest how public money was being used. That protest became a documentary called Engen’s Missoula.

While no one in legacy media acknowledged that this documentary existed and was being actively suppressed when a showing at The Roxy was cancelled, there are two good examples of an online response: the conservative one from Western Montana News, and whatever you call these anonymous critics on Reddit.

When you peruse the comments, like I did this morning, the general retardation of Missoula protest culture becomes easier to understand. Here are some of my favorite:

Lucky for “mechanicalhorses”, a former Indy journalist by the name of Matthew Frank just helped remind me about another big reason why Missoula protestors are more than likely too stupid to pivot–an in depth article about using the naming of a snowplow as a form of protest.

I wish I was kidding.

Something was missing when Missoula announced the winners of its annual Name Our Snowplows Contest last week — ICE.

Instead of clever and defiant ICE-inspired names you’d expect from a town with Missoula’s activist bona fides, the winning submissions, picked by the city, were “Bob,” “Betty Whiteout” and “Ctrl + Salt + Delete.”

Sure, those are fine. But also: really?

If you’re wondering how a corpse found on a popular hiking trail can go without a name month after month after month, perhaps it’s because Matthew Frank is using his investigative skills to uncover why his hunch that “something was missing” from this vacuous signaling of virtue was correct.

We checked the winning names a couple days ago only after Chicago’s snowplow naming contest made headlines because voters there picked “Abolish ICE.” Sounds like something Missoula would do, we thought. So we were mildly disappointed to learn what Public Works would be painting on our plows, however idle they may be this winter.

But then we noticed the contest precludes submissions deemed political or inappropriate. No doubt the city had received several entries reflecting Missoulians’ ICE anger and angst — and all sorts of other names unfit for public snow-removal equipment. They were just keeping things, as the rules say, “fun and welcoming.” And, unlike in Chicago, there was no public vote.

So we asked the good folks at Public Works for the full list of submissions, and they obliged.

The name submitted the most? “Abolish ICE.”

Whatever release of dopamine Frank got in his “journalist” brain when making this discovery, I hope it was worth it, because the collective IQ of protest culture may have just dropped a point or two.

Speaking of retarded political actions, one thing to maybe NOT do if you don’t want to make your side of the two party political con-job look like a cult that would happily kill the Constitution for GREAT LEADER if they were told to, is denigrate people in your party who don’t get immediate war hard-ons when world-changing assassinations go down, especially when you can’t muster much strength in the People’s Republic of Missoula.

If the political opposition in Missoula County would like to show me they are serious, then find me (and pay for) a lawyer willing to take on the slanderous and CRIMINAL state senator, Ellie Boldman, who COULD NOT WITHSTAND what I know about her.

For example, have I written anything about the alleged sexual assault Ellie Boldman is claimed to have committed? Until today, no, and I won’t write anything more which might identify the victim who told me about the incident, because I consider Ellie Boldman (formerly Hill, then Smith) to be a very dangerous person to those who cross her. Just ask the family of Catherine Shepard.

There are some fascinating fissures in the Montana Republican Party that I’ll be looking at soon, and developments in political races outside of Missoula I might look at, depending on some factors, most of which are beyond my control. Such is life.
