I've seen a lot of things in my career in the law and I'm always leary when I hear someone bring up a "cover-up" claim. It's not something that police or lawyers do; it can turn a case completely around when it is done. A rock-solid case can be destroyed when someone hides a piece of evidence that could be used by the defense, but there are other ways that people "hide the ball" that make criminal investigation very difficult.
I don't know about you, but if someone used my identification and posted bail, as me, I would be extra furious with the person who framed me for a crime that I didn't commit. This is a commonality for Lori and Brian LaFond who use false IDs like most people use Kleenex. The one thing you can be certain of is that Lori and Brian use fake IDs of people they are stalking, such as their siblings or relatives. This is how they get the information that they use to pretend to be the relatives of the target. So not only are the implanted people the targets of stalking, but their family members are as well. It is a nasty process to prove that you weren't the criminal but it is also a burden put on innocent people. All too often, in our area, the innocent are convicted simply because Lori and Brian get ambush warrants in other people's names.
I've already explained that we know a lot about what Missy Erickson and David the Neighbor were doing in Sedona, Arizona in March of 2010. They were busy posting bail for Lori LaFond and her brother Brian. There were a variety of charges that were filed against Lori and Brian which included drugs, car theft, public nudity, child endangerment, and so forth. Amazingly, they skipped out of the State of Arizona making their legal system look foolish. They had a lot of help, from what it looks like.
I've always wondered why we don't have the warrants for Lori and Brian LaFond from Arizona. This is a mind-reading crime so we know exactly who bailed them out, twice, and who was bailed out, understanding that it was under false names. So you have two sets of criminals. You have the bail sureties that used fake names intending to defraud the bail process and you have their friends that were arrested, arraigned, and charged with the crimes committed. The entire process was upended by providing the court with false identifications and by false identification of the bail sureties of those defendants. The court, during a bail review, has an examination of sureties. Thos sureties provided the court with a fake story about the relationships between themselves and the defendants.
Since Lori and Brian do not reside in Arizona, they use fake IDs from California and usually, they use their stalking victims' IDs or one of the stalking victims' siblings. When you are charged out of state with a crime and you reside in another state there is always the risk of flight. There is also a risk of danger when you consider that the victims in the child endangerment are from California just like the defendants. Either one of these could have kept Lori and Brian in custody during the pendency of their cases. That, unfortunately, did not happen and it is strange to me why? Some have speculated that it was because of their local ties to the community that allowed their arrest under ankle monitoring. This would give us an idea of who the siblings pretended to be.
The only local addresses that Lori, Brian, Missy, and David would know were Jonathan Mendenhall's father in Dewey, Arizona, and Marilyn Siegel's father in Seligman, Arizona. It is suggested that David and Missy even visited the Seligman address on their way to Sedona before they ditched Marilyn and Benjamin Katzenberg. Missy and David's sole purpose on this trip was sketchy at best. They were allegedly there to make sure that Lori and Brian didn't hurt Anthony, Jonathan, and myself, but that isn't what it appears was the case. We've already discussed Lori's illegal restraining order against me for a place she did not work, so Lori's presence on my vacation was a threat to our safety.
Why send Missy Erickson and David the Neighbor? I have no idea. I told Benjamin that I did not want them there. They came at Jeffrey's insistence. That is also sketchy. David and Missy have a long history of criminal activity with Lori and Brian LaFond that includes the stalking of Benjamin Katzenberg and his subsequent molestation as a minor. David set that whole situation up and then skipped out on the court when it came time to identify Brian and Lori LaFond. This is a problem.
We know that Missy Erickson disappeared while Lori and Brian LaFond were in jail in Arizona. She was allegedly telling people not to watch her on this system. We didn't listen. My team members watched and knew exactly what Missy Erickson was up to. She was busy posting bail for the LaFond siblings. Christian Johnson was busy harassing me the entire time on the microphone. So we know that Missy Erickson is the bail surety who lied under oath. She still lives with Lori and Brian LaFond in Joshua Tree, CA where she has committed more felonies against my family in the time since.
This is a well-rehearsed scam that has helped to keep Lori and Brian LaFond out of jail/prison for over four decades. The deceit it takes to get monies deposited in the false sureties' names and accounts is almost premeditated. I think that whoever David and Missy pretended to be in court had specific knowledge of the people they impersonated. They have to have established bank accounts that can be accessed when they need to use them for bail and other thefts. Most pretrial services officers do a better job of establishing when the money enters the account so it can't be transferred by a third party. A third party's money would not be legal as they are not the surety for the bond. This has to do with organized crime leaders not being able to find a surety that they can transfer money to allowing a dangerous criminal to escape. It's part of the Bail Reform Act.
By providing the court with false information about the defendants it is easy to establish that the sureties were attempting to defraud the court. They never intended to return the defendants to court in the first place. Their only goal was to have them released so they could escape, but there was a problem. It appears that the court had requirements for their release. One person suggested that ankle monitoring was ordered by the court. There are conditions for that monitoring and it isn't cheap. Another condition for out-of-state defendants is that they remain in the State of Arizona during the pendency of their case. That means they must supply the court with local addresses where they intend to be staying.
This is where I think someone is hiding the ball. If, as I theorized, Brian pretended to be Jonathan Mendenhall, his local address would be his father's home in Dewey, Arizona. Likewise, Lori LaFond who has been known to call Jeffrey Katzenberg, "her father", has been known to pretend to be Laura Katzenberg. This would mean that a local address in Seligman, Az was given. Lori and Brian think that it is no harm no foul since neither Jonathan nor Laura were in the courtroom so someone pretended to be them. That isn't the case in court. You see, you can't be pretending to be someone else and actually become them. You are arraigned as the defendant no matter what name you give.
So when Lori and Brian skipped out of Arizona, ankle monitors or not, they committed a crime. A violation of their pretrial releases. Why our mind reading team wasn't on top of this, I don't know. So now the defendants are going to be charged again with the crime of bail jumping, twice each. This is almost an automatic guilty finding as the defendants were ordered to return on a date and they didn't. That is the fact. Guilty, dude.
Here is where the big rub is for me. Why, in God's name, when law enforcement came looking for the two defendants that did not show up for a court date or were outside of the ankle monitoring zone, did Jonathan's father, Ed Mendenhall and Laura's grandfather, Mr. Siegel, not tell the police who pretended to be their relative or give them some idea of what was going on. It isn't that difficult when you consider that Benjamin Katzenberg knew that Missy Erickson posted bail for Lori LaFond and Jonathan Mendenhall knew that bail was posted for Brian LaFond. Missy Erickson even told Jonathan Mendenhall that it was Jeffrey Katzenberg that sprung both of these defendants out of jail. Why didn't he tell his parents. Ed Mendenhall is the son of a Long Beach, Ca, Police Chief, Ed Mendenhall. This is called hiding the ball.
The reason that I am upset is the in the meantime Lori and Brian LaFond have spent 15 years with David and Missy, attacking my family members. I have every right to be angry with this situation because it would have been easily solved. Jonathan has been in the exact home where Brian, Lori, Missy, David, Christian, and Leah live. He knows full well that these six were involved in the crimes committed in Arizona. Anthony Dabiere saw these criminal in Sedona, Arizona and around town stalking me and him. Why hasn't Jeffrey Katzenberg provided law enforcement with the warrants that were necessary for Lori and Brian's arrest along with the two bail sureties that he has ties to? This screams of aiding and abetting fugitives to me. Why did Jeffrey choose to harass me and my family instead of the people that used his money to effect an escape? This is criminal and it is hard to believe that someone hasn't stepped up and gotten the answers that would lead to the arrest of the Arizona criminals. There are two boys that were horribly molested and their father. Nobody seems to care?
It's time for law enforcement to start finding out the truth about the Mendenhall's and the Katzenberg's involvement and leave my sister and me alone.
Christopher has remained dead silent on this whole issue. It's a huge disappointment.
