Earlier this year, the podcast I co-host profiled Michael Tracey and tried to explain why he is... the way that he is. Here's a link to that if you're curious about his background: www.patreon.com/PostingThrou...

Michael Tracey published what he said was the ID of the "Jane Doe" in the Cornell case. Then he took it down, claiming he just wanted to make a point and didn't want to see harm to the person he named. What he hasn't admitted is that he mistook info on a sketchy site for official NY court records.
An archived copy of Michael Tracey's original Substack post includes a screenshot from "eCourt Records" and the commentary: "It's [name redacted]. Don't blame me -- the New York Court System just posted it. Seemingly inadvertently. Oh well."Screenshot of Michael Tracey's post on Substack titled "Note on Jane Doe." It reads: "After identifying Jane Doe earlier tonight, I have now removed the information I published. Why? Because the principle has been served: to underscore that permanently anonymizing litigants who make sensational, spectacular, reputation-destroying claims about others — so long as they can self-declare some form of victimization — cannot be countenanced.

It’s destructive, and an egregious abuse of the legal system by huckster plaintiff’s lawyers. This practice has to end. Lawyers who seek to monetize this sleazy tactic should have to think A LOT HARDER about the claims they’re willing to throw out into the public domain, using impressionable clients who may not even know what they’re getting themselves into.

So why have I now removed her information?

Because I don’t believe she’s the main “villain” here. I primarily blame the bottom-feeding, media-manipulating, sleazebag lawyers who’ve made a whole cash-grab industry out of this racket.

Thomas Giuffra in particular has a lot to answer for. He’s the central reason for the current debacle.

Given the intense nationwide and global interest in this case, I don’t want to bring any further negative attention to this woman. I don’t believe she ought to be punished or subjected to any retribution or humiliation. I believe a RATIONAL solution is necessary here. Not more character assassination — of her, the seven young men, or anyone else. Truly, that is my genuine view."

So, either explain why I am blocked across all platforms or please provide evidence that I’m a bot or work for Russia or Mike Flynn. When I live here and draw comic books .

All this while it was obvious because I somewhat of a niche public figure, that a easy google search would make clear exactly who i am. And it’s even more insulting that I have worked with children with disabilities in Cambodia for years and he endorsed this conspiracy during the border conflict.

Nice sentiments, but this person endorsed the ridiculous conspiracy that I was a Russian op or worked for Mike Flynn and someone was hiding in his friends bushes in her house in America ( where I have never even visited) www.globalreport.ca/about

So I am reactivating this account after months not touching it. I’m going to see if it’s still got a good amount of people active. Since I last used Bluesky I have had a few life changes, including stepping into a Legal Graduate role at VDG lawyers, and undertaking professional training in law.

As we move into “foreigners are cancelling Christmas in the name of political correctness” season it’s worth remember that Christmas was indeed once banned in England, by Christians and the man who enforced the ban has a statue in his honour outside the Houses of Parliament.
