So if Steven Arnold died in 1994, why was Sunny McNair exhibiting his work with my face on it in 2008? This is all bullshit advocacy for the violence against gay men and the LGBT community that has suffered through rape and human experimentation. How in the world can this show any kind of existential art work? This is a picture of my face being punched out, on a postcard, two months after I reported a rape. This isn't art...it's advertisement for violence against anyone that would speak out about the criminals that commit the act of electronic harassment...here is how the "art show" was advertised. By the way, this isn't the only photograph from this night...there are many others that aren't nearly as "artsy"...they are the violent account of a night where I was raped in Steven Frey's home. It's a sad commentary on police work in our area...and yes, this was given to the detective in my rape case whom did nothing more than listen to Laurie say, "this isn't his face"...how would she know? Does she know the artist? I know my face...and I know the message it was sending. "I can rape and disease you, you can report it and the police will do nothing. Then I can mock you and taunt you as much as I want...and still nothing will happen." It is telling you that if you are a victim of electronic harassment, you can not get justice even with a picture from the night you were raped.
This is a REAL Steven Arnold photograph...there is a huge compositional difference between what is depicted above and the type of art that the real master made before his death in 1994...can you see the difference?

| This is portraiture and it is captured on good old Kodak film...composition and texture combined with glamour and style. It is high editorial work and is a trademark of Steven Arnold's work. This is a late 70's and 80's style that is a hallmark of the kind of composition that is Steven Arnold. Do any of you still think that he had anything to do with the 2008 show that depicted my face being punched out? |
What Sunny McNair has tried to do here is what Laurie has done all of her life...stolen. Steven Arnold is a famous photographer of black and white imagery that has spanned many decades and is, in fact, well known...what you see above is a rip off...a farce...stolen...like two stolen breast implants shoved into the chest of someone pretending to be someone she isn't. The picture of my face above being punched out is a mockery of his work...and flies in the face of a gay man with HIV/AIDS...which is whom Steven Arnold was. He died in 1994 of AIDS...I doubt he would think that this picture is something worth printing or making. A gay man intentionally infected with the HIV virus in 1987 right after reporting a sexual assault that left him with Hep C, bleeding and dying....it's a sad commentary on the man whose art is much more creative than a black and white sham morphed with a fist in his face. I guess I'm lucky that the fist wasn't somewhere else.
Morphography is hardly a NEW art...and Sunny McNair is a hack as far as I'm concerned. Why would someone with the reputation of Steven Arnold collaborate with a woman 14 years after his death? It's a sham...bullshit...and was meant as a threat to someone whom was beaten to a pulp in the home of a friend whom was also being sexually assaulted in that home.
Here's a bit of news for the Palm Springs Police Department...the victims of electronic harassment are seldomly raped once. They are raped over and over again and infected over and over again until their immune systems give out. Steven Frey has his home broken into so many times and had been assaulted so many times that he actually built a wall inside his home, with MY HELP, to keep whomever was doing this to him, and me, out permanently. I know he built it for that purpose because I hauled out the cinder blocks myself...for days...while he built a fortress inside that home to keep the man (and woman?) out that I saw assaulting him one night, through his bedroom window.
In my diaries you will read about "Peter DiMartino" as played by Brian LaTweeker, whom repeatedly told me that he had complete sexual control over Steven Frey. Steven would tell you that he didn't know anyone named Peter, but these text messages I've shown you tell you that someone wanted me to think that...if not Steven, then whom? These text messages were received by me, the day after Christopher and I did the informant work and a few days later....they say "Steve F." as if to convince me that Steven sent them to me...even though they were from Steven's number...odd for someone to do this isn't it? Clearly, if Steven didn't know Peter DiMartino, someone wanted me to think he did...and that they were in some kind of a relationship as described in my diary.
This is only a few in the series of messages that I received from Steven's phone...one of which got him convicted of a threat. I knew Steven didn't send these...and I tried very hard to let his attorney know this as well as my police contact and the prosecutor. Laurie couldn't allow that to happen. One strike against Steven. Of course by this point I had to get a restraining order because the police wouldn't help Christopher or myself...so I couldn't talk to him. The first chilling effect of my investigation...the second would come with a restraining order filed by the City of La Quinta...on behalf of a woman that says she was Sgt. Anderson's "four year girlfriend".
Tonight Steven Frey sits in a Banning jail cell for forty five days...listening to Laurie scream and yell at him about taking the blame for these messaged. Funny, before she told him not to know anything about "Peter"...but now it is convenient for him to do the opposite. One problem...if Steven now knows Peter, then Peter and Steven must have lied to the police when they had them both in for DNA testing. So what's it going to be this time because these text messages aren't going to go away.
For the record, when it says that I was @ Motel 6 when I received these calls, it was the Motel 6 in 29 Palms, not the one in Palm Springs. I had no home any longer and was forced to live in a motel for about a month...thanks Sgt. Anderson. I spent many nights there worried about Christopher and his safety...then I got the restraining order temporarily with his name on it after receiving Christopher's okay...more chilling effect. Now the two informants against Steven Frey, were restrained from talking to him because of a death threat.
I talked to Sgt. Anderson the day after the attempted buy that we'd set up, worried sick about Christopher because I couldn't get ahold of him by phone. That whole conversation is logged.
My attempt to work with Christopher against Steven was, in earnest, an attempt to free all three of us from the slavery of Laurie and Brian's system. If Steven had been busted, he wouldn't have gone to prison....it would have been his first offense and he would have received Prop 36 because it was before the death threat. It would also have allowed him to work with us against Laurie and Brian in a case where he was being forced to sell drugs because of the tremendous tax debt he was in...you see it was all for the friendship that he gave up in favor of being sexually and verbally assaulted by Laurie day and night. My attempt was to save his life and Christopher's, instead, both ended up going to jail for a year and a half...because the police didn't do what they should have for any of us.
The same goes for Jonathan Mendenhall and Anthony Dabiere...bringing their situations to light is my attempt to keep them both out of jail for crimes that they were set up and illegally prosecuted for. It is very clear that what they went through was set up as a result of their own electronic harassment...and subsequent poor sentencing of defendants labeled as "a Steven Frey thing" by the court. What you see is Anthony being arrested as a number two defendant in a home where he was a guest...then moved to the lead defendant in the case where he had nothing to do with the sales of narcotics. The lead defendant, James Connelley, completely disappears...and he's the one that was living in that home and selling the drugs...
Later, Nick Andre would "second strike" Anthony, walking down the street with a clean meth pipe in his pocket...no probable cause, just walking out of his complex.
You see I don't do this job just for myself, even though there is a warrant for my arrest out there, I do it for all of my friends...because this is bullshit. None of us should be in jail or serving time as a punishment for not serving Laurie and Brian. When probations and paroles are just about up, Laurie goes on the rampage trying to find anything that will violate us and put us in jail. Just like where Steve Frey is tonight. It's a sad commentary that gay men that have been sexually assaulted again and again are treated like dirt in preference over the rapists that have done this so many times, they check a box as to where each of us is in "their program of hate".
As to the "artist's" choice of names for this show depicting my face being punched out..."Perspectives", I would like to submit that perspective photography isn't about opinion, it's about scale....the opinion that a man's face being punched out is art...is shallow and used in that "restraining order" as "violence towards a worker"..how can it be one thing for a woman, and something different for a man? This postcard was sent to the home of a rape victim...a residence that Sgt. Anderson was sent to by his "four year girlfriend"....
This is an example of "perspective" photography:

As to the "artist's" choice of names for this show depicting my face being punched out..."Perspectives", I would like to submit that perspective photography isn't about opinion, it's about scale....the opinion that a man's face being punched out is art...is shallow and used in that "restraining order" as "violence towards a worker"..how can it be one thing for a woman, and something different for a man? This postcard was sent to the home of a rape victim...a residence that Sgt. Anderson was sent to by his "four year girlfriend"....
This is an example of "perspective" photography:
This is "Perspective"...a man's face being punched out isn't exactly a "perspective" it's an opinion. In this case it's a threat. As the subject in that picture, I can tell you that my perspective was a victim of rape having a fist shoved in his face while I could do nothing about it. My opinion is that it is from a crime scene where I was completely immobilized and unable to fight back...because if someone tried to do this without me being drugged, I wouldn't have allowed it to happen. It shows a helpless man whom is semi conscious...but unable to defend himself. That's a perspective of a rapist photographer and a masochist.
Whether or not violence towards a man is art is up to the beholder. Whether or not violence against a gay man is a crime is up to a court of law? Whether or not violence depicting the photographer as the criminal and me as the victim is a crime is up to the investigation...one thing is certain...I would never have posed for this kind of photograph ever...and there are others.
I once showed this Perspectives post card to Steven Frey...I've heard that he confronted Laurie about it. I don't know if that is true or not, but you can be sure that Laurie will do everything she can to threaten Steven Frey into not telling the truth about what he knows again. However, Steven should realize that Jonathan Mendenhall knows the truth...and lying isn't really a good way of showing Laurie that you don't like her.
