This is the latest post in what I
half-jokingly call The Kimberlin Saga®. If you are new to the story, that’s okay! Not
everyone reads my blog. The short
version is that convicted terrorist Brett Kimberlin has been harassing me for
over three years, his worst conduct being when he attempted to frame me for a
crime. I recognize that this might sound
like an incredible claim, but I provide video and documentary evidence of that
fact; in other words, you don’t have to believe my word. You only have to believe your eyes. Indeed, he sued me for saying this and lost
on the issue of truth. And more recently
when his wife came to us claiming that this convicted terrorist had threatened
her harm, we tried to help her leave him, and for that, he sued myself, John
Hoge, Robert Stacy McCain and Ali Akbar for helping his wife and he is suing
Hoge, McCain, Akbar, DB Capital Strategies, Michelle Malkin, Glenn Beck,
Patrick “Patterico” Frey, Mandy Nagy, Lee Stranahan, Erick Erickson,
Breitbart.com, the Blaze, Mercury Radio Arts, Red State, the National Bloggers
Club, and others alleging that we are
all in organized crime for reporting factually about the spate of SWATtings
committed against myself, Frey and Erickson.
So, if you are new to the story, go to this page and you’ll be able to catch up on what has
been happening.
Hello, out
there in internet-land. Attentive
readers (i.e. those who have been watching the Maryland Judiciary Case Search)
may have been noticing that things were happening in the new state case that I wasn’t
talking about. By way of review, Brett
Kimberlin has filed a new state lawsuit against myself and pretty much the
right half of the blogosphere. You can
read the complaint, here. He filed that on April 15, and on April 28, I
filed a motion to dismiss, which you can read, here.
All of which
sent Brett into stompy foot mode. On May
1, he actually filed a motion to strike my motion to dismiss. For those unfamiliar with how our courts
work, it’s a motion to find another party’s motion so utterly improper that it
is returned to the party, and the case court as if it was never filed. So why was he asking for this?
OMG!!! He didn't even serve his motion on Aaron? What a cheap loser! |
Well, as of
Tuesday, I didn’t have any indication why.
You see, as he is wont to do, Brett apparently didn’t send me a
copy. So I filed a motion to strike his
motion to strike, which is, yes, absurd, but when you are dealing with a guy
who did this...
[Agent
Lucas] had been called to a printing establishment. He observed defendant (Kimberlin)
wearing clothing with badges and insignia. The insignia was identical to that
of the Security Police of the Defense Department. Defendant had in hand a
facsimile of the Presidential Seal and other documents, one or more of which he
attempted to chew up. He had been at the establishment the day before to have copies
of the documents printed. He had been wearing the same clothing. At the
printer's instructions, he had returned to give final approval of the layout.
Army investigators were also present. They had just previously observed
defendant drive the Impala into the parking lot and enter the establishment.
The Impala had remained there since defendant's arrest.
...absurdity
is par for the course. So, that’s the
first order of business—showing you my motion to strike his motion to strike:
As usual, the
only difference between this and what I filed is that nothing is signed or notarized,
and some personal information is redacted.
And I am not giving you the exhibits, because life is short. As indicated in the document, that was
written sight unseen. I didn’t know anything
about the contents of his filing, I just knew he didn’t serve this on me and I wanted
it stricken for that reason alone.
Still, I had
to go down the courthouse to file this and while I was there, I pick up a copy
of his motion to strike. So what was his
argument for striking my motion to dismiss?
Well, that
will be the subject of tomorrow’s post, although—SPOILER ALERT—it is really,
really frivolous... which might be a
problem for him. You see, Maryland Rule
1-341 states that:
In
any civil action, if the court finds that the conduct of any party in
maintaining or defending any proceeding was in bad faith or without substantial
justification, the court, on motion by an adverse party, may require the
offending party or the attorney advising the conduct or both of them to pay to
the adverse party the costs of the proceeding and the reasonable expenses,
including reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred by the adverse party in opposing
it.
Do keep this
in mind, dear reader, when you come back to read his motion to strike tomorrow. And the next day, you will get my opposition
to the same motion, which I mailed to the court today. I promise it is all popcorn-worthy!™
And always
remain happy warriors, folks.

My wife and I
have lost our jobs due to the harassment of convicted terrorist (and
adjudicated pedophile) Brett Kimberlin, including an attempt to get us killed
and to frame me for a crime carrying a sentence of up to ten years. I know that claim sounds fantastic, but if you
read starting here,
you will see absolute proof of these claims using documentary and video
evidence. If you would like to help in
the fight to hold Mr. Kimberlin accountable, please hit the donation link on
the right. And thank you.

Disclaimer:
I have accused
some people, particularly Brett Kimberlin, of reprehensible conduct. In some cases, the conduct is even
criminal. In all cases, the only justice
I want is through the appropriate legal process—such as the criminal justice
system. I do not want to see vigilante
violence against any person or any threat of such violence. This kind of conduct is not only morally
wrong, but it is counter-productive.
In the
particular case of Brett Kimberlin, I do not want you to even contact him. Do not call him. Do not write him a letter. Do not write him an email. Do not text-message him. Do not engage in any kind of directed
communication. I say this in part
because under Maryland law, that can quickly become harassment and I don’t want
that to happen to him.
And for that
matter, don’t go on his property. Don’t
sneak around and try to photograph him.
Frankly try not to even be within his field of vision. Your behavior could quickly cross the line
into harassment in that way too (not to mention trespass and other concerns).
And do not
contact his organizations, either. And
most of all, leave his family alone.
The only
exception to all that is that if you are reporting on this, there is of course
nothing wrong with contacting him for things like his official response to any
stories you might report. And even then
if he tells you to stop contacting him, obey that request. That this is a key element in making out a
harassment claim under Maryland law—that a person asks you to stop and you
refuse.
And let me say
something else. In my heart of hearts, I
don’t believe that any person supporting me has done any of the above. But if any of you have, stop it, and if you
haven’t don’t start.
