RESPONSE
August 16, 2013
To: Raye Smith
Subject Property Address: 525 Bunker Hill Road, Ashtabula Ohio 44004
Regarding: Resolution of immediate issues to avoid litigation
Dear Ms. Smith:
You served me on Monday with a writing which purports to be a "Notice to Quit" or "Notice of Eviction." which you imply is governed by Ohio Revised Code Section 5321.15, and Chapter 5321 general, 5321.01 and all following sections.
This is not a tenancy issue but one of employment, which will be brought to the attention of the requisite legal authorities for reasons detailed below.
In September, 2011 I began working for you as director of advertising for Rumor Mill News. In reliance on your promises and representations I relocated to Ohio. In addition, you asked me to assist you in other multiple ways. You had persuaded me to relocate from California offering, as a benefit of employment, the housing I still occupy along with other benefits. These facts are demonstrable and continuous for nearly two years. From 2011 until today, August 2013, you have never voiced a single complaint about my work.
Your present actions are an attempt to evade the legal ramifications of this employment contract. The violations you have committed are both specific to the state of Ohio and also federal.
After consultation with my own legal counsel, and requiring him and his law clerk to review the situation, the following response is provided to you for immediate action.
(1) You have never complied with your obligations as a Landlord under Ohio Revised Code Section 5321.04.
(2) You have engaged in illegally abusive conduct against two disabled people whom you invited into your house as an employer and CEO of Rumor Mill News. I was offered benefits as compensation in exchange for services. Your actions are in violation of Ohio Revised Code Sections 5123.01, 5123.50, 5123.61, and 5123.621.
(3) You are not lawfully my "landlord," in any sense nor Arthur's, under Ohio law (compare Ohio 12th District Court of Appeals, Ebbing v. Lawhorn, July 16, 2012) because my agreement was to come to work with
Rumor Mill News as a legal entity or corporate employee. You offered many inducements to me. I was reluctant to cross not only six state lines but three time zones, with my disabled son.
The provision of three rooms in your house, was one of the multiple benefits of employment which you laid out for me as compensations.
(5) You cannot evict me without terminating my employment. Once you terminate my employment you become immediately liable for all the false, fraudulent, and illusory promises which you made to me as part of a offer of your offer of employment made as owner of Rumor Mill News. Upon our contract, I have performed all my obligations fully and faithfully up until the present date, but upon that same contract you have failed to perform fully, or faithfully.
You have left me and Arthur very lacking in the bare necessities of life which you had promised expressly, such as health insurance. You will find yourself legally bound and utterly equitably estopped from denying your contract with me, even though it was mostly an oral agreement between us.
(6) You were well aware I was disabled, dependent upon California and Social Security Disability Supplemental Income, and that I was my disabled son's sole caretaker.
(7) Under both Ohio and Federal Law, you, as an employer who invited and induced us to travel across the continent to accept your employment offer, of which your hospitality was an integral, but not exclusive, element, owe a special duty of care when employing a disabled person. I am also accorded additional rights because of my age.
(8) By taking advantage of a disabled person's needs and services, which for a long time I willingly rendered to you in the expectation of the ultimate fulfillment of your promises, you have violated the Americans with Disabilities Act 42 U.S.C. Sections 12101, 12102, and all which follow. I can only suggest that you take these issues up with a qualified Ohio attorney who is qualified to litigate in federal court.
Beginning a month ago, and more immediately on August 14, 2013, you committed the following illegal acts to force me out of the subject property as part of a strategy intended to evade your multiple liabilities:
1) You have harassed me and my disabled son with verbal abuse.
2) Slandered me to others
3) Numerous interruptions and interference with the use of facilities including but not limited to the repairs in the bathroom immediately adjacent to our bedrooms with lengthy work which was carried out during non-business hours into late evening(s).
4) Disconnected me from the utilities of Internet and Vonage phone service which need to be available in order to perform my work related activities.
All of these specific acts speak to a plan which has reduced my income and left me more vulnerable to your continued manipulations.
The most recent of these is your use of a form of "self-help evictions" which is illegal and proscribed under Ohio law, as contained in Ohio Revised Code Section 5321.15.
THERE ARE NO SELF HELP EVICTIONS IN OHIO
In addition, retaliatory eviction is noted and dealt with under Ohio law as well. (ORC section 5321.15)
Undertaking these acts puts you in violation of the law in multiple instances in addition to the more serious charges to which you have laid yourself open by attempting to recharacterize the present situation.
Your actions have already necessitated multiple consultations with my attorney to ascertain the facts in the matter. These fees are being compiled for the record in future court ordered judgments.
Your actions violate Ohio’s landlord/tenant law and may also make you liable to me for actual damages, as well as attorney fees, this separate and distinct from a federal action.
Your continuous interferences have damaged me materially and cost both me and MacPherson Investment Group substantially at a time critical to the launch of our initial introduction of technologies for our clients into Ohio. A denial of access to communications has caused immediate harm which may result in long term impact on our ability to do business, another issue which must be resolved.
I demand that you cease your illegal activity within three (3) hours of receiving this letter - and restore my communications access within this time period and, if you are going to terminate me, provide a severance package. This to be negotiated, as specified below.
I suggest you consult with your attorney, who can confirm the above statements of law.
If we are unable to handle a resolution expeditiously, I will have no other alternative but to retain counsel, and contact the appropriate authorities and persons to assist me.
We are offering you mediation as an avenue for handling further negotiations for final resolution once your illegal activities have ended and my utilities are restored. Ms. Bloom's e-mail is below and she is well aware you may be in touch with her.
It would be best if you emailed and set a time for your discussion in advance.
Sincerely,
_______________________

Craig Built Himself an Unusual 'Family'
After Craig left me he build himself an unusual 'family' made up of women. Most, but not all, of these were "sexual professionals," he had met through Sugar Daddy sites or through straight prostitution arrangements handled by a Madame.
His long time girl-friend, Amy, was not in the category. She met Craig through Match.com, she said, and believed their relationship was real until time revealed to her what Craig was really like.
Amy contacted me first in 2003 via e-mail. At the time, she was not sure of the truth about Craig. She contacted me again around five years later, eventually sending me photos of some of these women and describing the get-togethers Craig had with them. These were often posh parties or dinners, celebrating mile-stones in his life. The women were generally paid to attend if they were not then 'retained' to sexually available to Craig.
Amy was traumatized by Craig, who used her to find him other women after he destroyed her financially. I believe she contacted me because I was of assistance in understanding what had happened. Eventually, she was able to move on and is now doing well for herself.
Craig put on a 'Roast' for himself, a highly unusual thing to do, and solicited people from his work at Green Hills to attend. Regrettably, Amy did not have a recording or the tape which was made. Amy told me only Dave Chandler, a fellow vice-president from Green Hills Software, attended the roast. She described his remarks on the occasion as having been made with little humor and apparent dislike.
All photos were the property of Anne, who gave then to me to use at my discretion.
Going by the pseudonym "Sasha", Gibson operated an escort agency out of Hollywood.[1] At her peak, she employed as many as 34 women in 16 of the United States and in Europe, with more than 1,000 clients. In June 1999, Gibson was arrested on charges of prostitution. She was convicted in 2000, and she subsequently served 22 months in Chowchilla Prison.[2]"

Craig, with a traveling companion
Craig liked to take women with him when he traveled which he did extensively for work. He enjoyed having an attractive woman, or women, on his arm, even taking them to Green Hills Software, Inc. family events.
Otherwise, Craig preferred hanging out with a group of the women he was paying with no other men present. One these occasions he would also play his guitar to the financially captive audience. Craig had even planned his funeral along the same lines. Attendees would be paid to attend - on the way out. The glue on the seats would make it impossible for them to sneak out before the taped performance of every song he ever wrote - or stole from someone else, was finished.
Many of the women stopped seeing Craig when they were audited by the IRS for not having reported money received from Craig. He had told them the taxes were paid and they did not have to report the money. To say this was not true in an understatement.
Craig's longest paid relationship with a woman he met on a Sugar Daddy site seems to have been Ivory, a plus size model who used the handle 'goddess' on the site, according to Anne. Ivory has a website, which can be viewed HERE.
Another woman who Craig had at his parties. Amy said this woman also procured other women for Craig.
The reason Craig called this his 'family' was because what most turned him on was incest.
