Special Report
Terror by Any Other Name
Convicted bomber Brett Kimberlin now targets conservatives online.
Michelle Malkin has called Brett Kimberlin an “online terrorist ringleader,” while blogger Jimmie Bise Jr. prefers the phrase “lying felon,” but Kimberlin’s political allies call him a “progressive activist.” During the past week, Kimberlin’s bizarre methods of “activism” have made him the focus of intense scrutiny from conservative bloggers, arousing the interest of major news organizations, so that the convicted felon once notorious as the “Speedway Bomber” is likely to become even more notorious in the near future.
Since 2010, Kimberlin has been suing, smearing, harassing, and otherwise attempting to intimidate bloggers who write about his criminal history. It seemed he was intent on silencing the truth and — although I had never even heard of him until May 17 — within four days of my beginning to report about him on my personal blog, Kimberlin began targeting me with his thug tactics. On Monday, May 21, I left my Maryland home and departed to another state where, for the past week, I’ve continued a series of reports I’ve called “The Kimberlin Files.” These online dispatches have been filed from an undisclosed location, my whereabouts concealed in order to protect myself and others from the menace of a dangerous man who by all rights should still be behind bars.
Kimberlin was convicted in federal court of 22 felony charges in connection with a weeklong bombing spree in September 1978 that terrorized the residents of Speedway, Indiana. Drug smuggling, perjury, forgery, impersonation — Kimberlin’s criminal career began while he was a teenager and continued until Dec. 29, 1981, when he was sentenced to federal prison for the bombings, one of which brutally maimed Vietnam veteran Carl DeLong. Prosecutors had recommended a much longer sentence — 79 years, so that Kimberlin, then 27 years old, could never again “walk the streets to terrorize any other citizen,” as Assistant U.S. Attorney Kennard Foster told the court. U.S. District Court Judge William Steckler was more lenient, imposing a mere 50 years and, because this was before “truth in sentencing” reforms, Kimberlin served a mere 17 years. He was paroled in 1993, returned to prison in 1997 on a parole violation, and finally released in 2001.
Kimberlin became briefly famous in 1988, and for a few years thereafter remained somewhat of a cause célèbre among liberals, because of his claim to have once sold marijuana to a young Indiana University law student named Dan Quayle. Kimberlin has been described as a “top-flight con man,” a skill that has made him quite successful in the world of progressive activism, where left-wing donors are always willing to contribute to cynical hustlers who tell them what they want to hear. Within four years of his release from prison, Kimberlin started a tax-exempt non-profit called the Justice Through Music Project (JTMP) which has raised approximately $1.8 million in the past six years, including grants from the Tides Foundation, the Heinz Family Foundation and the Barbra Streisand Foundation. Kimberlin also partnered with liberal blogger Brad Friedman to create another non-profit group called Velvet Revolution.
Kimberlin endeared himself to left-wing bloggers by claiming that Republicans had stolen the 2004 presidential election through vote fraud, offering a $100,000 reward for evidence — a reward that was never paid, for a claim that was never proven. Failure to prove his allegations of GOP perfidy, however, seemed neither to deter donors to Kimberlin’s projects nor to undermine his credibility among progressives. A 2007 Time magazine article reported that Kimberlin had “found a home in the blogosphere” by “repeatedly asserting as fact things that are not true.”
In 2008, Kimberlin’s JTMP non-profit collected more than $558,543 in contributions, according to the group’s IRS filing, while Velvet Revolution collected $83,560. Crusading on behalf of “election integrity,” Velvet Revolution warned against “Karl Rove’s cyber strategy to illegally manipulate elections,” and demanded that Rove be prosecuted. Velvet Revolution hinted at a vast conspiracy: “In fact, in 2004, the Ohio Secretary of State election servers were suddenly re-routed to the GOP controlled servers at Smartech in Chattanooga, Tennessee, and the results flipped from John Kerry to George Bush. Bush’s [information technology] guru Mike Connell was responsible for setting up that manipulation with the assistance of Ken Blackwell, and Connell was later killed in a mysterious plane crash after he indicated he was ready to talk about the matter.”
Serious stuff, if true, but one liberal blogger smelled a rat. Seth Allen, who has used a variety of online pseudonyms including “Socrates” and “Prepostericity,” got himself banned from Democrat Underground and other liberal sites by disputing what he called the “conspiracy theory hoax” claim that Connell’s death was part of a GOP cover-up orchestrated by Rove. Allen was one of a very few progressives who questioned the assertions made by Kimberlin and Friedman, and his persistent criticism got little attention, even as Velvet Revolution expanded its list of targets. Soon, the group was calling for criminal prosecution of Tom Donohue, president of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, and conservative New Media entrepreneur Andrew Breitbart, as well as Breitbart’s young protégés James O’Keefe and Hannah Giles, who made headlines with their 2009 video exposé of the left-wing community organizing group ACORN.
In October 2010, Breitbart published a 3,600-word article about Kimberlin’s criminal history, written by Mandy Nagy (aka “Liberty Chick”), a former editor for the Lexis-Nexis news-digest service. Nagy’s article relied heavily on contemporaneous coverage of Kimberlin’s “Speedway Bomber” trial by Indianapolis Star reporter Joe Gelarden, as well as Mark Singer’s 1996 book, Citizen K: The Deeply Weird American Journey of Brett Kimberlin. Singer, a liberal reporter for the New Yorker, had originally been sympathetic toward Kimberlin before eventually realizing that the subject of his book was not only fundamentally dishonest, but also in all likelihood guilty of the crimes of which he was convicted. Perhaps the most shocking element of Kimberlin’s 1978 bombing spree was that authorities believed it was an attempt to distract police investigating the murder of a 65-year-old grandmother, Julia Scyphers.
As Gelarden reported in a 1981 article, Scyphers had become concerned about her daughter Sandra Barton’s involvement with Kimberlin, who had shown a “strange affection” for Sandra’s young daughter Debbie. The girl was 10 years old when 20-year-old Kimberlin met her in 1974, and Sandra permitted Debbie to accompany Kimberlin on vacation trips to Disney World, Mexico, and Hawaii. According to Singer’s book, Kimberlin’s acquaintances recalled him introducing the preteen as “my girlfriend,” and the girl’s mother told a co-worker that Kimberlin was “grooming” Debbie to be his wife. Kimberlin’s interest in the little girl alarmed her grandmother. In the summer of 1978, Julia Scyphers arranged to have the girl and her older sister leave their mother’s home and move in with her, and when Kimberlin was unable to see his “girlfriend,” he reportedly threatened suicide. A few weeks later, Scyphers was shot dead in what investigators suspected was a murder-for-hire, and one of Kimberlin’s associates in the drug trade was identified as the shooter by Scyphers’ husband. But Fred Scyphers, the only eyewitness to the crime, died of a stroke shortly thereafter, and prosecutors dropped the murder case, which remains unresolved to this day.
Kimberlin was ultimately convicted in the bombing spree, yet has never admitted his guilt, instead claiming that he was framed by a “corrupt government.” During his time in federal prison, he became a prodigious jailhouse lawyer, filing more than 100 actions on his own behalf, and his litigious habits have continued until this day. When Patrick Frey, the blogger known as Patterico, wrote about Kimberlin’s criminal past in 2010, he was immediately threatened with a libel suit. By then, Kimberlin had already sued Seth Allen, who eventually got legal assistance from Aaron Walker, a Virginia attorney who had blogged under the pseudonym “Aaron Worthing.” This evidently made Walker a target of Kimberlin’s harassment tactics, with the result that Walker says both he and his wife lost their jobs. Walker told his side of the story in a 28,000-word blog post published May 17, which was where I first learned of Kimberlin.
My plan that Thursday had been to travel to Camp David to cover the G8 Summit that was convening just 15 miles from my Maryland home. But when I began reading Walker’s account of his tangle with Kimberlin, I soon spotted the name of a Democrat campaign consultant, Neal Rauhauser, described as an “associate” of Kimberlin. This was clearly newsworthy, and raised the story above the level of a squabble between bloggers. Rauhauser is a self-described “hacker,” and in 2010 was accused by Tea Party activists of organizing a campaign of online harassment known as “TwitterGate.” This apparent connection between a Democrat political operative and Kimberlin, a convicted domestic terrorist, was certainly troubling. The story was convoluted and hard to explain, however, and it took me nine hours to write a 2,400-word synopsis on May 19. In the meantime, I learned that Breitbart had warned less than six months before his death about the connections between Kimberlin, Friedman, and Rauhauser.
Kimberlin’s critics say his litigation against Allen and Walker, and threats of action against others, are a type of “lawfare,” which is defined as “the illegitimate use of domestic or international law with the intention of damaging an opponent, winning a public relations victory, financially crippling an opponent, or tying up the opponent’s time so that they cannot pursue other ventures such as running for public office.” And this is part of what many see as a wide-ranging strategy of intimidation waged against conservatives, including such tactics as “SWATting” — making hoax calls to police, pretending to be a targeted individual and claiming to have committed a domestic shooting. The intended result is that police swoop down on the targeted address with guns drawn, prepared to shoot it out with what they have been told to believe is an armed-and-dangerous suspect but who, in fact, has committed no crime and has no idea why the police are at his house. These dangerous hoaxes have been perpetrated against Mike Stack, who was involved in last year’s exposure of Rep. Anthony Weiner’s sex scandal, and against Frey, who recounted his experience in a frightening article Friday. Then, on Sunday, Red State editor and CNN contributor Erick Erickson said he was also “SWATted.”
Such incidents have drawn widespread attention to the Left’s harassment tactics, and inspired Friday’s “Everybody Blog Brett Kimberlin Day,” an effort by conservative bloggers to stand up in solidarity against intimidation. This morning, Kimberlin is scheduled for a court appearance in Rockville, Maryland, for a hearing in which he is seeking a “peace order” against Walker. That Kimberlin is the plaintiff in such an action — claiming that a law-abiding attorney is somehow threatening the safety of a convicted violent felon — is deeply ironic. Federal prosecutors once hoped that Kimberlin would never again be able to “terrorize any other citizen,” yet he is now terrorizing them just as surely as he ever did during his infamous days as the Speedway Bomber.

There are descriptions on Patterico's website of the details of the swatting incidents that link them to Kimberlin and his associates. As an example, the attempted "swat" of Mike Stack sent police to an address that Kimberlin had used to mail a "cease and desist" letter to Stack ... but where Stack did not live.

" Santorum: Might As Well Have Obama Over Romney
Presidential candidate Rick Santorum said Republicans should give President Barack Obama another term if Santorum isn't the GOP nominee and for a second day compared rival Mitt Romney to an Etch A Sketch toy.
Santorum reiterated an argument he has made before: The former Massachusetts governor is not conservative enough to offer voters a clear choice in the fall election and that only he can provide that contrast.
"You win by giving people a choice," Santorum said during a campaign stop in Texas. "You win by giving people the opportunity to see a different vision for our country, not someone who's just going to be a little different than the person in there."
Santorum added: "If they're going to be a little different, we might as well stay with what we have instead of taking a risk of what may be the Etch A Sketch candidate for the future."
Santorum was referencing Romney adviser Eric Fehrnstrom's comment Wednesday that "everything changes" for the fall campaign. "It's almost like an Etch A Sketch," he said on CNN. "You can kind of shake it up and we start all over again."
The remark reignited criticism of Romney as the type of politician who will say or do anything to win."

When one is faced with a felon who can attack like a thief in the night, one is well advised to protect one's family. Only punks and childless eunuchs would dispute a man's right to protect his family.
G-d Bless, Mr. McCain.

Occam's Tool| 5.29.12 @ 5:10PM
There are innocent children involved, moron. As I've told Clint, I couldn't care less what you say or threaten about me, but don't come near my kids. (If C or J ever came near my wife, the horrors that would ensue---her family was known for cutting the ear off the founder of her hometown, and she inherited that temper and skill---that's why I don't worry about the Boss)
Given the history involved, Mr. McCain is taking appropriate steps to protect his wife and kids, and avoid a violent confrontation, which is best.
That's why I never threaten anyone. A violent confrontation, for me, always involves the possibility of death, and never involves mercy in that situation, only survival. My job is to minimize that possibility. If there are children involved, the need to minimize that possibility goes up a thousandfold.
Clint is, as usual, an imbecile with a loud mouth and no brains or balls.

Kimberlin' tactic for years has been to sue everyone in sight in relation to his crimes and conviction. Everyone from victims, witnesses, persecutors, ect. have been subject to his taxpayer subsidized lawsuits. To those of us in Indianapolis, this is nothing new. These legal actions cost him nothing. He loses each case; but the harm is the personal legal expenses that our system inflicts on those he sues—many of whom were unwitting victims or innocent bystanders. It is a failure of case law that some judge somewhere has not put an end to Kimberlin’s rancorous machinations.

On Friday’s story “In Search of Muhammad” by Aymenn Jawad Al-Tamimi, a number of those who commented (including me) speculated that a fatwa would be forthcoming against the author of the article, along with those already in existence for the author of the book that was reviewed. In another illustration of the absurd alliance between the islamists and the Left, it now appears that infidels and apostates of the right are now mandatory targets for the “faithful”, represented by the likes of Kimberlin. Mullah Moulitsas and Ayatollah Soros should be proud of their instruction and example.

While tragic they were killed defending our country, 4,486 is barely more than one day's aborted. Pretty cavalier when you think about the exercise of liberty and the free will of those aborted, don't you think?

It would seem to me, based on the fact that Kimberlin told the court that he was beat up by Walker, while the court in-house video clearly shows that he was not, is grounds for a counter-suit by Walker as well as some type of perjury charge (or would it be called something else?) against Kimberlin.
I do have to remark that -- and correct me if I am wrong -- that Montgomery County Md, where Kimberlin is suing Walker, is the county where SEIU was bussed to a banker's home and walked all over the property, and the police did nothing.
So, it seems to me that the "powers" that be in Montgomery County are one in kind and in spirit with Kimbetlin.

"...a wide-ranging strategy of intimidation waged against conservatives, including such tactics as 'SWATting' -- making hoax calls to police..."
The pro-life organization in which I help out has experienced two such incidents, although minor ones, in recent days. In the first incident, a nice man called to say that he had just received dozens of text messages from our office's main phone number. No one in our office had sent them.
We figured that someone had "spoofed" our phone number to annoy someone picked at random and get him angry at us.
The second incident took it up a notch: I arrived at the office one morning a little earlier than usual, at the same time two police officers were starting up the front steps.
When I asked what was up, they said that "911" had received a hang-up call from our address, and they (of course) had to check it out. There had been no voice on the line -- just a hang-up, but the number showed as an overflow line in our office.
If I hadn't arrived in time to open the door for the officers, they might have had to force their way in.
Ours is a tiny storefront office. If someone could target us for this kind of thing, they could go after anyone.

I arrived late to this Swatting matter, but now am vaguely familiar with same. RSM's recent ordeal is all over the internet for those wishing to research [good material on Braitbart.com etc]. I hate to beat a dead horse here folks, but this sort of thing is precisely why Romney must become elected in November, since this crapola is the domestic terrorism aka COMMUNITY ORGANIZING of the current administration. I certainly haven't gotten off a turnip truck of naitivity within my substantial lifespan, but to my knowledge this sort of garbage has never before happened in this country. Granted it is being facilitated greatly by the internet and the advent of computers, but this is what the Democratic Party now represents. It is street hustling political terrorism 101 and everyone should become informed of same and realize that it exists. this will only get worse in exposure if this current regime is re-elected and allowed to extrapolate their political power. Please please to not ignore the events that RSM is describing to you, as it will eventually effect all of us!!!!!!!!!!
Only One Mediator Christ Jesus| 5.29.12 @ 1:43PM
Oldefarte,
You are young! My Dad is 80 and still kicking.
Sadly, these dumbos will not vote for Romney even considering the destruction that the current occupant of the people's House has already committed on this country. He deserves impeachment, and to be thrown out on his rear end, his cronies deserve jail time, and yet they want to give us four more years of the same and worse.
I pray God has mercy on us, and also my prayer has been that He puts it in the hearts of men to vote Republican.
That's the best I can do, along with voting and trying to talk some sense into them.
Oldefarte| 5.29.12 @ 2:09PM
M, You are entirely correct as usual. The loons here will never agree as you state, but there are a few ON THE FENCERS I think that simply don't GET IT like the rest of us do. Again, this domestic terrorism via the internet is simply astonishing to me. In the old days of Chicago, NY etc, the mobs etc would send out hit squads against enemies for sometimes political purposes, sometimes business etc.. It's only going to get worse as we approach November. As you've rightly indicated, some of this may be the Paulistas [who I suspect some of them as being this community organizing goons, and falsely disguising themselves as Paul supporters instead] tactics in addition to others. Anyway, take care and hope you had an enjoyable Memorial Day. Later!!!!

An excellent and courageous piece of investigative journalism. I'd never heard of Brett Kimberlin before, but come to think of it, the name's connection with the Speedway bomber case has jarred a few repressed memories. Now that this narcisisstic sociopath has gotten some long-deserved critical exposure, maybe he and his allies will find themselves less able to fly under the radar of law enforcement. We only can hope.
Brett Kimberlin is a manifestation of the dark side of American politics, where the higher-ups farm out special "projects" to special-ops dirtbags like him. Kimberlin may pass himself off as a hipster, but he's just a common criminal. As for the recent death of Breitbart, it's an open book as far as I'm concerned.

This reprobate is now a D.C. local? It seems that The American Spectator isn't the only operation to move from Indiana to Washington. In Kimberlin's case, this isn't for the better.

Dear Mr. MCCain,
Arron Walker was just arrested! Please go to www.michellemalkin.com or her twitchy website to see update.

What I want to know is when someone is going to file charges on this Kimberlin douchebag for doing this kind of stuff. Better yet, when will someone show up at HIS doorstep, sans SWAT team, & just beat the living crap out of him. Gotta love lefties. "I don't agree with you or like your opinion, so I'm gonna file a false police report & sick the SWAT team on you." These people are a freaking JOKE.

Someone should feed Kimberlin to the fishes, along with anyone even remotely working with him.

Mr. McCain: I would be remiss in not stating the following: You do beautiful work. G-d Bless You and keep you and your family safe from this madman. I'm sure I do not speak only for myself on this blog.

ROGER THAT, Occam! I thinl some flechettes to Mr. Kimberlin's face would do WONDERS for him!
Hope you've been well, my friend!

Very interesting article, thank you.
Lawfare is a common tactic of the truly cowardly degenerate.
Who pays for this cretins lawyers?
By the way the comments section, simply fascinating, it would appear that some of the commenters are case studies in waiting.
By the way, long ago we English discovered that there are three kinds of people who use the term "Israel firsters" namely bug eyed leftist lunatics, Islamists and rabid national socialists.
They all share a common hatred of Jews.
Just sayin like.
PS, before one of you offer up some abuseful expletive filled retort to my less than flattering comment I suggest you look up my "Handel" , with a bit of nosing around you will find I don't shy away when in the company of bug eyed Leftists, Islamists or national socialists, as I am new to your blog and having read the note below the comments box I don't wish to get off on the wrong foot, however seeing as how I am "new" here and all that jazz I think it only fair to lay my comment cards on the table, I don't suffer fools gladly.
Just sayin like.

Excellent article and synopsis of this lunatic leftist domestic terrorist Brett Kimberlin.
He sounds like something out of the FBI files on TV.
A Bizzare, mad, deranged, insane psychopath of which nightmares are made of. Like Hitler, he is the essence of evil come to reality.
This is exactly what it is all about- Good against Evil, thus we must never let the evil of Brett Kimberlin win, or there will never be Freedom, Liberty, and Peace anywhere.
He is not the only one, but he is one not to be ignored, but dealt with immediately, as he knows how to manipulate the system with arrogant malice and sinister intent without mercy, just like Hitler.
Make no mistake about it, he needs to be removed from society, put back into jail where he belongs, and throw away the key.

Wow - I'd never even heard of this guy. Thanks for the exposee.

What happened to Stacy and Patrick was bad. Very bad. However, I have come to the conclusion that Erick's account is a bit exaggerated. Smacks of publicity stunt.

There are some truly evil people in the world and it seems like they are increasingly gravitating to the Democratic party in our country. So many, like this guy, are completely sold out to the enemy of mankind, but the left welcomes them like it was old home week.
