Evidence is a wonderful thing. When you have transcripts, voice mails, depositions, affidavits, old love letters and other forms of proof it provides a depth of insight which the disordered generally think they can ignore.
NOTES: If you find a broken link, or one which no longer exists, contact me so I can repost the exhibit. I was told in early July 2018 by a journalist, who has reason to know, John is attempting to clean up his online presence. See more at due-diligence.
Morgan Gell was my first-born child from my first marriage, which took place when I was 17. Her father, Richard L. Barteaux was a psychopath, as is Morgan. Her husband, Jay, who frequently posts lies about me, is for disinformation hire. One of his former employers, Van Hughes, now deceased, once told me he is good for research but not to trust his other assertions about competence.

All of
the individuals involved with John Fund and his co-conspirators Dick Cheney,
and Karl Rove and included in this Time Line - Narrative, which
is a little complex, as you will see.
1979 -
John Fund gets his first job as a political operative working for Ed Crane and
the
Kochs to gain control of the Libertarian
nomination for president.
1981 - Summer - Melinda Pillsbury-Foster and Janice Vargo take a trip to Northern
California to visit family and
see friends from the Libertarian Party. Stopping in
Sacramento they meet John Fund,
who has promised them a tour of the Capitol.
John uses the occasion to ask Melinda
to have her brother, Charles Arthur Pillsbury,
who is a Legislative Assistant and in law school at Davis, to get him a
job. Surprised, Melinda told him she would prefer he did not.
Melinda later learns from her brother John
contacted him directly and told him he
was her boy friend, which was untrue.
1982 -
John Fund begins an internship with Evans and Novak with money provided by a
fundraiser put on by Melinda's supporters in California.
At
this time, Melinda did not know Fund had been working for the Crane Machine to
take the LP Nomination for President. This information was withheld by
Eric Garris and Justin Raimondo who admitted this in their newsletter for Anti
War in 2006, when, according to Lew Rockwell, they accepted he would never pay
them off for having covered for him. Garris and Rockwell were both Crane
supporters.
1983 -
John goes to work at Evans and Novak in Washington D. C., working part time
writing for The Star.
1984 -
April - At the recommendation of Robert Novak Fund is hired at the Wall Street

until 2001.
1986 - October
- Fund becomes an editorial page writer specializing in politics and
government.
NOTE:
In 1988 Melinda is married to Craig Franklin and views John as an old friend.
In the interim, 1988 - 1999, Melinda's youngest daughter, who was admitted to
Mt. Holyoke, ends up going to Hillsdale on John's recommendation. This
was a questionable choice since Mt. Holyoke was far superior and cost the
same. John continually asks Melinda to have Ayn come see him when he is
at Hillsdale speaking. Ayn declines to do so.

bothered with him two weeks earlier.
March 28,
1998 - Morgan calls Melinda at the hospital and tells her she needs a heart
transplant, attempting to persuade her to turn off
Arthur's life support.
This is a flat lie. She was paid $10,000 to do this by Craig Franklin, who
made the payment as noted as 'for her heart problem.'
He was well aware
Morgan had no such problem.
This payment is mentioned in a conflict between Franklin and Morgan.
Franklin wanted to be repaid as Morgan was not able to

did not survive.

did not work out but there is no
evidence this was ever true. The
evidence leads to the conclusion
Morgan was having sex with Craig by
September of 1998 after Eugene
dumped her and she lost her other
value to Craig. In NY she began a
sexual relationship with John
Fund. This was known to Craig because
Morgan was occupying another room from
Craig's and Fund answered
the phone in the morning when Craig
was calling Morgan.
By report from Morgan, the two men agree to cooperate to destroy
Melinda's credibility.
Subsequent events support this partial
explanation.
Morgan calls and records Craig Franklin admitting to fraud

Morgan was asked to go to Santa Barbara and meet Craig in
the office of

July 2001 - Morgan moves in with John at his apartment in Jersey City. Against advice and objections from Melinda Morgan makes the Tape she made to prove to Melinda she was not lying, again, to John Connelly, who uses the contents to validate statements made in his article, published September 4, 2001 on Weasel Search, titled, "Sex, Lies, and the Tape: The John Fund Story,"
