  • John Hemphill; BOLO

    Rumor has it that our one legged phony Marine didn’t show up for court and has a warrant out for him.  We talked about him HERE and HERE 

    Not showing up where he was supposed to is nothing new to him.

    “He’s a coward:” Man accused of posing as Marine for financial gain a “no show” in court.

    “He probably thinks he can beat this too because he still doesn’t believe he did anything wrong,” said Joe. “I doubt if he shows because he is a coward.”

    She was right.

    You can read the rest of that story HERE.  We gotta give extra points to a poser that has his  peg leg involved with stolen valor.

    Ain’t that just peachy…in an odd coincidence some people think he has been hopping around in the peach state.  If you happen to see a morbidly obese man with a USMC peg leg, please notify the authorities.

    Join the exciting world of Stolen Valor Investigations

    Some of yuz might be aware of a recent opening in the Circle of Trust.  Our resident Army guru has moved on to better things.  If you would like to join this exciting field of unlimited bullshit and mass confusion, please do not hesitate to contact us.

    All we ask of an investigator is:

    A willingness to put up with my constant haranguing.

    Generally lucid individual that looks forward to being the FNG

    Ability to give good phone.

    Some of those highly trained operator language skills would be a plus.

    Can deliver a compassionate approach to the monthly death threat.

    An abundance of time currently devoid of any purpose.

    Possess an ability to decipher clues.

    Preferably they have been in the Army, knows someone who has been in the Army or at least slept with someone that was in the Army.

    A good working knowledge of all that Army Bling, patches, pins, and hats would be really helpful.

    They will have to sign an SF-180, pass a background check, complete some home schooling and be willing to attend a formal course that will actually make them a Private Investigator.

    You can complete additional training  if you wish to do Fugitive Recovery and or Personal Protection.

    If you are still living in your mothers basement, have a man bun, are afraid of scary black guns, or spend a significant part of the day playing with yourself…this is probably the career opportunity you have been waiting for.

    The good new is; I am the Stable Genius of the crowd.  The rest of these guys really got some serious issues.   So if you just can’t seem to get that edge back since they made you turn in your Contractor Satellite Phone and they stopped sending checks your way…hit me up.  I can put you knee deep in the shit.

    We try to work with most disabilities.

    Neatness counts, we like to keep things organized.

    Thank you for your time.  Please send inquiries to dave@militaryphony.com

    Donald Allan Stilton; Fake Navy SEAL and mystery veteran.

    Our friends over at militaryphony.com sent us their case on Donald Allan Stilton.

    It looks like he is trying to claim he was Navyish kinda.  Not sure what all that award salad is supposed to mean.  Of course he has the hat.

    Wait, maybe his is Armyish.

    A couple of real Navy SEALs at militaryphony.com were asked about him, but unlike Cheers…nobody knows his name.

    All we can report is the SEAL database has no record of him and the Navy said they never heard of him either.

  • Judge humiliates Christian Gerald Desgroux, who is now wearing a perfectly legit Orange Jumpsuit.

    Judge humiliates Christian Gerald Desgroux, who is now wearing a perfectly legit Orange Jumpsuit.

    Jonn had posted about Christian Gerald Desgroux here, here, and here.  This guy  is a gift that keeps giving.

    The Associated Press reports:

     A judge demanded to know Tuesday why a North Carolina man repeatedly used an Army general’s uniform to fool others, asking if “it was like Halloween every day,” as he sentenced him to six months’ imprisonment for an impersonation that ended with an alarming helicopter ride.

    One would think he should spend more time behind bars than most of us have on any single deployment.  Sad thing is it seems there are some women who would have been better off if he had deployed to the middle of some place.

    But he has multiple pending charges from 2017: assault on a female (April); misuse of the 911 system and violating a domestic violence protection order (May); felony conversion (November); and interfering with emergency communications, felony fleeing to elude arrest, misuse of the 911 system and misdemeanor stalking (December).

    This Judge does not seem to be impressed with Christians excuses.

    That November landing at SAS Institute wasn’t the only time Desgroux pretended to be a general despite never serving in the U.S. military, prosecutor Barbara Kocher said Tuesday. She told the judge that Desgroux had convinced a now-estranged wife that he was going on fake deployments and had worn a military uniform while getting kicked out of strip clubs.

    “He liked the sense of importance he gained by masquerading as a general,” Kocher said, adding that Desgroux “has used this persona for years.”

    Federal sentencing guidelines called for no more than six months’ imprisonment, U.S. District Judge Terrence Boyle made clear how serious it is to impersonate a military officer.

    “You can be a danger to people,” Boyle said. “What made you think you could act like a general?”

    Wearing an orange jumpsuit, Desgroux apologized, saying he hadn’t realized what he was doing was illegal.

    “So it was like Halloween every day of the week?” Boyle asked. “Why not wear a top hat and a tuxedo?”

    The defendant then meekly added, “It was a mental issue, sir.” He said he bought the uniform from a surplus store.

    I should put on my uniform and see if women swoon over me.  In all honesty, I should report that my Spousal Unit seems to be immune to it all.

     

  • Shon Wilson; Special kinda guy

    Shon Wilson; Special kinda guy

    Our friends over at the Guardians of the Green Beret posted their case on Shon Wilson.  It seems he was testifying as a Weapons Expert of some sort. Maybe some of you want to take a crack at what the guy is qualified to testify about.  Let me give fair warning, there are puppies being trained and he knows what “is” and what “is not” a bomb.  I started with some of his claims:

    Ok boys and girls I have a suggestion for you.   If you are in need of legal representation and they hire someone with that kind of resume,  you should probably seek new representation, but that is just my humble opinion.  Lets see what else this trained killer is qualified to do:

    I realize lawyers are not exactly the brightest crayons in the box, (except ours of course, I think he fancies fuchsia) but who is gullible enough to think the idiot who wrote that is an expert in much of anything?  I suspect the only thing this clown ran into that was  foreign and high-density occurred while he was burning shitters. Come on, seriously?

    Why is there always a puppy involved?  But at least he has ribbons and medals and badges, oh my!

    I just love commemorative awards, I didn’t realize they qualified me as an expert in anything other than “Online Ordering”.  Hey now,  there are some real ones mixed in.  Let’s see how “Operator” this warrior looks:

    Oh my goodness, we all know that clown we deployed with who had to take Tac-Tee-Kool photo ops.  He looks outside the wire, hahahahahahahaha.  I guess this nonsense plays to civilians.

    Seriously, you are going to have to go over to the Guardians of the Green Beret and attempt some explanation of his records.  They have 40 some pictures of evidence to go through.

    Is the Unit Clerk Course now part of Special Forces training?  Anyway, he has prior service and lots of records to comb through.  Search as I may…I can’t find any Special Forces Weapons Expert stuff.   But, maybe I missed it all.  I am getting the opinion that maybe he is an embellishing clown who just couldn’t be proud of what he actually did do.  I think he should just man up and stop bothering puppies.

     

     

     

  • Scott Cutright; Fake Navy SEAL with identity crisis.

    Scott Cutright; Fake Navy SEAL with identity crisis.

    The fine people over at militaryphony.com have published a case on a Scott William Cutright.  It seems “Knotright” Cutright can’t make up his mind about what he did while in the military.

    Scott William Cutright comes to us from League, TX.  Military phonies became aware of Scott’s claims of being a homeless Navy SEAL Officer.  After a simple search of Scott Cutright we found dozens and dozens of money requests and numerous conflicting posts.  In some posts he claims to be a Navy SEAL then others he was not a SEAL.  Other claims of being a Mustang (Navy term for prior enlisted that receives his/her commission) with two Purple Hearts. 

    He claims that some Ring Knockers were picking on him because he was prior enlisted.

    His claims about military service are all over the place.  He is, he is not, he was, he might be, you will have to go over to militaryphony.com to read all the different claims.  Here are some highlights:

    This clown goes on ad nauseam.  Plus, he is a real tough guy.

    Ok, he throws in some PTSD and Purple Hearts and bada boom bada bing…he is a war hero.   Well, maybe not.  A few real Navy SEAL types over at MP had no idea who this guy was, so they ordered his records through a Freedom of Information request.   You will never guess what they found.

    Hey, he almost made it two years.  But I don’t think he was doing any super secret SEAL stuff while he was in the Brig.  Navy seems to think he skyrocketed to E-1, which is just a pay grade or 12 under a LtCmdr.  Shocking…I know.  Since he is obviously confused about his role in protecting our fine country, we are glad we could help clear it up for him.  Who knows how many different accounts he has asking for money out there.

  • Jessica Marie Fambrough; Combat Camera

    Jessica Marie Fambrough; Combat Camera

    Our friends over at militaryphony send us their case on Jessica Fambrough.  It seems she likes to engage in discussions about her Combat Jumps while a member of a very elite group known as  “Combat Camera”.

    Combat Camera is an elite unit of highly talented photographers and videographers from each of the services.  They are usually out on the front lines of any war, conflict or humanitarian relief effort.

    You can read more about this highly regarded unit of specialists at the Joint Combat Camera Center

     

    MP did a Freedom of Information Act request for her actual service records:

    According to the Navy she didn’t manage to squeeze any Airborne training into her actual 3 weeks of military service.  As is often the case, she does have some other records available to the public you can see over at MP.

  • La’Baron Lee Johnson; phony SEAL

    La’Baron Lee Johnson; phony SEAL

    Our partners at Military Phonies share their work on this fellow La’Baron Lee Johnson who claims that he was a Lieutenant Commander (O-4) and a Navy SEAL.

    Based off of Labaron Lee Johnson DD-214, he initially served on active reserves for 2 years, 9 months, 4 days. Labaron was discharged as RM3 (E-4) Radioman. Labaron did receive a Sea Service Deployment Ribbon. It looks like Labaron obtained his commission in the Navy Reserves and resigned it as a Lieutenant (O-3). This service shows that he didn’t attend BUD/S, NO SEAL Command and he wasn’t a SEAL.

    UPDATE: After we posted this, we discovered that LaBaron passed away less than two years ago.
