Timcast is a multi-million dollar organization run by children. I wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt, but my conversation with executive editor @ChrisKarr17 about why they pulled @ShaneCashman's story didn't go well. Thread:
tbdailynews.com/timcast-pulls-…
Shane Cashman is not a serious journalist. Before working at Timcast he was a freelance writer who wrote stories about the history of air conditioning and Mary Poppins.
Shane's big claim to fame was profiling Kanye West. But all he did was kiss his ass, while saying with a straight face that Kanye had a legitimate chance of being elected President. No serious adult actually believes that, but Timcast published it.
timcast.com/news/cashman-t…
Tim didn't wanna address the fact that Eliza had used his show to spread her lies about sex trafficking, and gotten other conservatives censored for posting the truth about her. Luckily Shane was on the case, and she buttered him up real good:
Obviously Shane's 3 part series was a joke, particularly part 3 which falsely accused @defango of running a psyop to control us all into believing that Eliza was lying about sex trafficking. I chronicled the ridiculousness of it in this thread:
One Timcast editor made the executive decision to pull the story after speaking with @defango. Shane intentionally did not mention his name because he thought that doing so what would protect him, but he mentioned him by name in a podcast:
Over the weekend Manny came on the Turtleboy Live Show to talk about how he was defamed and threatened legal action. While we were talking the 3 articles were removed.
Instead of admitting they made a mistake Timcast's editors insulted their readers by stating that they were all too dumb to recognize Gonzo journalism. No one actually believed this.
But this was supposed to be an investigation about a serious matter. Eliza lied about being sex trafficked and used her influence with the world’s richest man to have dozens of people kicked off social media platforms. No serious journalist would use Gonzo journalism for this.
Meanwhile Shane doubled down and announced that he was proud of his work, which was so horrible that it had to be removed out of fear of litigation. The fact that he felt proud of this work, which put his employer in legal danger, shows how incompetent he is.
Yesterday Timcast executive editor @ChrisKarr17 started chirping at me, telling me that I was too uncultured to recognize Shane's Gonzo journalism. Here he is bragging about his “rock star journalists” at Timcast.
During a podcast Shane had previously stated that it was Chris, not Cassandra who was his editor. He also said that he “started a war” at the end of the story. This is not something a serious journalist brags about doing.
I noticed @ChrisKarr17 followed me so I reached out for comment on why he pulled the piece. He told me that the article was not pulled over any worries about libel, and suggested that readers like me were too stupid to understand what Gonzo journalism was.
Chris Karr told me that my line of questioning indicated I don’t know what I’m talking about, and that I’m not as cultured as he is about Gonzo journalism. But he wouldn’t answer my question, and didn’t seem at all ashamed that as executive editor this story made it past him.
Chris Karr said the story wasn't pulled because it was defamatory, but because of the explanation on the article – readers misperceived the style of journalism. He refused to explain what this meant because he pulled it out of his ass.
Chris refused to explain what the statement meant, claiming that it was perfectly clear as it was. He said that only SOME Timcast readers were too dumb to understand what Gonzo journalism is. Is it official company policy to pull down stories when readers misperceive them?
It was clear that @ChrisKarr17 was backed into a corner and could not explain why the articles were pulled. So he deflected and decided that I was a bad person who didn't deserve his time after he looked into my background.
Chris' source was a man named Rian Waters, who's been trying to sue me for 5 years after we wrote about his 2016 arrest for beating his girlfriend and killing her dog in front of their special needs daughter. This counts as a legit source at Timcast:
turtleboysports.com/suing-to-silen…
During a live stream Chris' source had an unconscious woman fall on top of him before leaving abruptly. Seems like whoever she is, she is more likely to be a victim of something than Eliza ever was.
tbdailynews.com/rian-waters-en…
I informed @ChrisKarr17 that he was using a domestic abusing dog killer as a source, which seems concerning since he's an editor for a major website that claims to write real news. He clearly was just looking for a reason not to answer legitimate questions about his failures:
Timcast editor @ChrisKarr17 is also a bigot. Yesterday he called Catholicism a cult and said that he wanted to destroy the Catholic Church. He got called out for it by @JackPosobiec, got scared, apologized, and deleted the tweet:
Timcast is a multi-milion dollar media company that many people trust as a legitimate source of news, but this ordeal has revealed that it’s run by morons. They have no journalistic standards and accuse supporters who offer legitimate criticism of being paid PR bots.
They provided cover for Eliza Bleu, defamed @defango, lied about why they removed stories, and insulted supporters. If they had any integrity they would invited Shane, Defango, Brittany Venti, and @TheQuartering onto the show to discuss this face to face. I doubt they will.
I realize that writing this means I'll never be invited back on @Timcast but I don't give a shit. I'd go if invited to discuss this, but I won't silence myself like Tim is currently doing in order to cover for people and get on the show. Integrity means something.
About to go live discussing this:

In April former CNN anchor @SusanHendricks contacted me and invited me to @CrimeCon in Denver on September 6 to be interviewed by her on the main stage. She spent the next 4 months lying to me and @eupaulaprado as we rearranged our lives to make it happen. I had no intention of writing about this, but since she's blatantly ignoring me because she doesn't have the dignity or respect to apologize or attempt to make things right, I felt compelled to tell the whole story. Here's the link to the article I published, followed by a thread: tbdailynews.com/2025/08/08/for…
Susan reached out to me in April and invited me to be on the main stage with her at @CrimeCon on September 6. Image
Image
On April 29 she specifically said that she spoke with a woman at Crime Con named Kelly about being on the main stage with mer, and that Crime Con had given her the green light. It was a done deal. Image

As you've seen in the Bederow Leters, Kate "Krusty Panties" Peter played an integral part in setting up my arrest in October, December, and February. Lt. John Fanning testified that she is their ONLY source of information on me. Some of you may only know Krusty as the ratchet chick on Twitter who defends the McAlberts. But she has been obsessively trying to put me in jail for the last 4 years and has falsified evidence more times than I can count to do so. This is a quick thread of some of her greatest hits.Image
After I fired Krusty for stealing from me (she used to write blogs and stream on my YouTube channel) I found out about the fact that she lost 2 of her kids due to years of neglect and abuse. In order to try to stop me from writing about it she got a TEMPORARY ex-parte order that was denied at a 2 party hearing a week later. In the week leading up to the trial she logged into the Turtleboy Facebook page because she still had access to my passwords on a Google doc. She then posted a threatening message to herself, pretending to be me, and called the police in an attempt to have me violated. Luckily Facebook keeps login information for pages, and I was able to see that she used an alt account of hers called Aitch Paul to log in at the time of the post, and then removed herself as an admin. The login showed it came from an Android. She is an Android user.Image
Image
Image
The day after she pretended to be me and made it seem like I was threatening to "burn" everything Kate loved to the ground, she announced on Discord that a truck at her work had been lit on fire. She was implying that I did it. I've shown the images she shared to several firefighters who told me that this was an intentional and controlled fire that was also intentionally put out. Notice the fire just stopped burning on the seats, there is no damage to the steering wheel, and there is no smoke residue on the windshield, indicating that whoever did this kept the door open and then quickly extinguished the fire before it could blow the car up. Whoever did this didn't wanna destroy the entire truck, they just wanted to make it look like someone was targeting Krusty. They also knew that there were no security cameras in that area, which Kate also posted about on Discord.Image

I'm going to be reviewing the entire Read trial from the beginning in the months leading up to Trial 2. "I hit him" was one of the great hoaxes of all time, and the most common thing you hear from the Food Stamp 5 and other McAlbert supporters. 3 of the 10 first responders on the scene who testified said they heard it, but I believe that only one of them was lying. Here's how the story evolved over time, and why I believe that Nuttall and Flematti actually believed at one point that Karen Read said those 3 words: tbdailynews.com/canton-coverup…Image
"She says she did it" is a common refrain from these simple minded morons. Unfortunately the Commonwealth, which has all the guns and the gavels, has adopted this argument, so we have to spend time debunking it.
It's important to point out that of all the first responders on scene that morning, the ONLY one police interviewed prior to charging Karen Read was Katie McLaughlin. We know that McLaughlin is dishonest because she lied about her close relationship with Caitlin Albert. She was hand picked by Kevin Albert, who brokered a meeting between her and Proctor, even though CPD was conflicted off the case. McLaughlin admitted that her story about what she heard Read say evolved over time.

Canton Police Officer Tim Taylor, a lifelong Canton resident, has spent the last 6 months investigating a guy named Rick for leaving rubber duckies around town with "Colin did it" written on them. Today he charged Rick with 12 counts, including felony witness intimidation, criminal harassment, and littering. In the 36 page report he definitively states that allegations Colin Albert and John O'Keefe were inside Brian Albert's house were "disproven" at trial. He cites Nicholas Guarino's expertise, and claims that telling Chris and Colin to "tell the truth" is witness intimidation, because it means you're trying to get them to change their testimony. This guy is the biggest fucking toolbag, and should be embarrassed to be a police officer. Reading the entire report now, and it's the craziest thing I've ever read.Image
Image
Officer Taylor was Chris Albert's personal escort at the Board of Selectmen meeting I attended on September 26, 2023:
Officer Taylor spent 6 months investigating these rubber ducks, and his investigation letters of preservation, the execution of search warrants, and surveillance. Everything his department didn't do for John O'Keefe. If you ever see this man in public, please point and laugh at him. Just mock him relentlessly.Image

I have confirmed that not only was Lt. John Fanning in charge of overseeing the jury in the Karen Read murder trial, he was also the source who reported a juror and had her eliminated on the final day of the trial. This juror was visibly disgusted with the State Police and would've voted to acquit Read. Every McAlbert and Trooper who testified sat feet away from this juror and could identify her in public. Fanning told a court officer there was a video of the juror at a bar talking about the case, but didn't sign an affidavit, testify, or provide the video. Auntie Bev just took his word for it, despite the fact that he was a listed witness in the trial and Michael Proctor's boss. He was also under internal affairs investigation at the time. This is what corruption looks like. They literally rigged the jury: tbdailynews.com/canton-coverup…Image
Juror 3 mouthed "what" and shook her head in disbelief during Joseph Paul's testimony. She clearly didn't buy that John O'Keefe was hit by a car. She also seemed to be opinionated and strong willed. The type of juror who would be vocal and convince her fellow jurors that John wasn't hit by a car. John Fanning made sure she never made it to deliberations.Image
Juror 3 was also the juror who reported Juror 5 on June 14, leading to her dismissal. I can now confirm with certainty that Juror 5 said in the presence of the other jurors that she was bothered by Karen Read smiling and turning around to look at her parents in court. She was reported by Jurors 2, 12, and 13 - the same 3 jurors who were eliminated from deliberations on the final day.

Paul O'Keefe sent me a threatening message at 1 AM while on vacation with the Sullivan sisters Satruday night. This led to a bizarre back and forth that ended with him agreeing to go on a double date chauffeured by Grant Smith-Ellis, and admitting that one of the McAlbert lackeys committed perjury. He even agreed to donate to my legal defense fund if I beat him in golf. There's never a dull moment in this case: tbdailynews.com/canton-coverup…Image
At one point Paul screenshotted our convo and sent it to me with the message "your ex boyfriend." I believe he intended to send this to another woman, but he was clearly hitting the sauce so I'll give him a pass. Image
Paul O'Keefe vowed to put me back in prison, brought my 9 and 6 year old kids into it, said that he was looking forward to them not having a Dad, and made jokes about prison rape. He also mocked me for the felony charges against me, which are the direct result of me seeking justice for his murdered brother by confronting and exposing the people who murdered him and covered it up after the fact.Image
