Twisting by the Pool

I'd like to talk about the activities of some ex and current Trade Me Posters. Those I use to call the twisted sisters because of the way I felt they twisted everything. Generally they seemed a lonely lot with what I'd call a unhealthy interest in other people's lives along with an inflated view of themselves and where they sit in the world.

It must be a personality type that drew them together, that some how they were better people, better informed. In other words abundantly gifted with right. My experience with people that are unable or unwilling to challenge themselves is that they become patronising and impatient with others, but worse they can reach a point where they feel justified in doing or saying things that are just plain wrong. So it was/is with the sisters, nina_s (aka slimdusty2, jane jetson,) golfergold, Kalnovitch (aka laddiefatcat.)

Golfergold always took an unhealthy interest in other poster's families, trolling and searching for information. She is also the host of a hate-site who crossed over to become a stalker, posting the identities of anonymous posters, details about them and their families. In one case this led to threatening phone calls, gravely concerning and frightening her target. She did this in tandem with others, primarily a person called dustproof, another called misspw (aka millie 231) and kalnovitch and her new but barely disguised identity of laddiefatcat, luckytrader and others. For those of you that may not know stalking and harassment in cyberspace is included as an offence under The Harassment Act 1997 and specifically it can become a criminal offence under s6(2)a. This state of mind of these "sisters' portrays the 'positive' feeling of being right or righteous thus 'allowiing' law-breaking on real people and their families. Incidentally, I can prove all of this and it's repetitive nature.

There are a number of other erstwhile individuals who have done similar things, Mike Stockdale (superslueth) being one who has stalked and outed on the boards, but of greater concern approached witnesses who gave evidence in The Bain case. He, and his fellow hate-siters from JFRB and Counterspin have also stalked details of the Christchurch jury and it would appear have approached or know at least one member of that jury. These people don't afford anyone scanctity in pursuit of their 'cause,' they're driven by being 'right' and 'knowing' things, and knowing what lesser mortals even 'think.'

I'm one of a host of people who have been keeping files on these people. My first file was titled 'nina_s defamation.' Nina_s, (an entirely fictional name of course,) had a particular pendant for defaming Joe Karam and continued on until the whiff of law suits filled the air afterwhich she disappeared for a while and came back in a 'reformed' state. She also attacked trial witnesses and the jury at length, she was 'mightier and holier than thou' on a great level. However it is not known to me that she ever stalked or outed anyone deliberately apart from one ocassion when somebody was outed in a situation she knew was untrue and she let it stand by virtue of her silence, so it was an outing by omission of people with fictional names outing real people who suffer harm as a result.

At their height of power (or ignorance) these posters had somehow convinced TM that they could be defamed or insulted as fictional people in cyberspace while going about defaming real people. One of nina's closest allies was obook (rodney osook) who along with Nina took great pleasure in ridiculing the ChCh jury and several expert witnesses. One witness became 'a dancing bear' who 'had' to have Joe Karam's assistance to show Robin Bain's suicide. They completely overlooked the fact that the witness wore a skull cap to prove the trajectory of Robin's fatal shot into his own head. They made great purchase out of this, trying seemingly to destroy the whole case against Robin by this single event. Physically it is impossible single-handedly to feed a rifle barrel onto a steel rod of the length that was part of the skull cap when the cap was being worn, of course Robin didn't wear a skull cap. He merely needed to hold the rifle in a right hand dominant position and lean his head against the barrel. Many people who may have followed the case will know all of this, but some may not know (something osook and nina never revealed in their defamatory comments of Karam and others) that the skull cap was a crown exhibit by which the defence using the crown's own display of the correct trajectory showed Robin's suicide. I guess nina and osook thought they had a right to ignore that and make purchase out of situation where they hid the truth.

I may talk more about this later. But I will certainly however write about The Harassment Act 1997 and how it can be used for the benefit of any who may read this and who might have been in a similar situation of being stalked in the past or who may encounter cyber-stalking in the future. I also hope to write about what I think is a new phenomenon in law by which a new breach of harassment and defamation law prevails, something I refer to as 'defamatory harassment.'

Postscript. Someone has rightfully pointed out to me that I should note that The Harassment Act 1997 is a New Zealand Act of Law, which I duely record here.
