Robert files Answer to Kate's lawsuit

Robert's attorney, Martin Garbus
Author Robert Hoffman has hired legendary First Amendment attorney Martin Garbus to represent him. His Answer was filed yesterday.

Garbus is asserting the defenses of statute of limitations, failure to state a cause of action, and first amendment protections under opinion, factual statements and matters of public concern. Garbus has defended Nelson Mandela, Cesar Chavez, Robert Redford, Michael Moore, and numerous major First Amendment cases including the famous Ashton v. Kentucky case in 1966, now in every Constitutional Law textbook.

Here is his answer, courtesy of Jon's attorney Shawn Tuma:

I predict that this stalking incident and Jon's (legal and rational)response will be a topic of TFW's interviews, giving her another
opportunity to throw him under the bus.

Although the police have spoken (:she could be charged with criminal trespass), I doubt that that will be mentioned.

So glad that Jon and Robert have such good legal representation. The court of public opinion matters not in the bigger picture.
Unless of course, you're trying to score a tv show.

Paula said...

Mel, just what was "dumb" about what Jon did? Also, I think most people would do the same thing if they were in Jon's shoes. I don't see this as a negative against Jon. This person(s) in this car could have dangerous motives.

He made it very clear he had a weapon and would use it to protect himself and his children. They had fair warning.

I don't see it as a negative, I think it's actually going to be a positive. Seems to me except for a few rabid sheeple people are saying I would do the same thing. Milo says can you imagine if Kate did this? Yes, I can. And I would be relieved she stood up for them and surprised but relieved that she has a firearm. I would also want to know if the kids are okay and whether she would press chargers against the stalker. There are some unstable out there who seek to harm celebrities and there is a long and sad history of it.

And good point about it doesn't matter if the kids were home. He needs to set boundaries for his private property when the kids ARE there. The paps could show up later when they are home if he doesn't do it now.

Frankly, if more celebrities stood up for themselves like this paps would be less of a problem. If you know you could be shot if you trespassed, you'd think twice.

AuntieAnn said...

Poor Kate even her henchmen is saying ehh seems a reasonable response to me. She doesn't want to chime in with her support too?

====

Maybe she's out applying for a food server position.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...


Just my opinion, but I really don't think this was a "real" Pap that followed Jon. I don't think they usually follow people onto private property?

&&&

I had the same thought. Maybe some locals can chime in but I thought most of the paps were actually pretty respectful of boundaries at this point. They would park themselves at the fence but would not go any farther and they didn't go to the school. The rare photos we see lately are almost exclusively from wide open public places. It's been ages since we got a photo at the house or bus stop.

I know there were a few hiding in the fields but I believe those days are gone.

I wonder if this was some amateur who saw that they're back in the news and thought she'd try to sell a few photos. These days, everyone can be a pap. That said it is no excuse for being so intrusive.

Bitchy Pants said...

Admin -- Theresa Saldana was attacked and brutally stabbed in broad daylight, too, in her own front yard, by a crazed fan. I think the Sheeple are incapable of logic in any circumstance. They're just like TFMJG. 1+1 doesn't = 2 in their universe.

Selena was also killed during the day, in broad daylight. She was shot in a hotel then chased down the halls of the hotel to the lobby, around about lunchtime.

I'm guessing that it was someone who thought it would be some sort of coup to score pictures of Jon's little house in the big woods.
($$$$$$$$)

I too hope Jon files a police report.

"Anyone could borrow or get a cheap SLR camera that looks like a pap camera and pose as a photographer but have other more dangerous intentions".
This did happen to an 11-year old girl, Alison Parrott, in Toronto back in the '80s". "At about 11 o'clock on the morning of July 25, 1986, she received a phone call at her Summerhill Avenue home in midtown Toronto. A male caller, claiming to be a photographer, asked her to meet him at the University of Toronto's Varsity Stadium where, he said, he would be taking publicity photos of her and her teammates." The story had a tragic ending. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alison_Parrott
Another aspect of this story should concern the Gosselins. These children have not been raised to be wary of strangers. Kate, in particular, has encouraged them to bond and pose for strangers with cameras. They will be very vulnerable due to their exposure and familiarity to the public.

Meagler said...

My big post about Manipulators doesnt seem to be going through, but this is what they do..intimidate and table switch. Its crazy making behavior, and msgoody is becoming a classic example...along with Milo, BV TFW and many others.

Its okay for all of them to do this behavior but no one else. Classic Narcssistic and manipulative behavior.

It can get me all wound up, but then I remember, that is exactly what they want us to do. Just laugh it off.

I predict BV, TFW (doesnt say anything herself, but lets others do her bidding for her and then says "who ? little ol me? No way, I am taking the high road") Milo and MSgoody will really ramp up the manipulation and crazy making behavior over the next few weeks, hoping to ramp up Jon and RH into speaking out. I truly hope Jon and RH stay quiet, quiet quiet and let this all play out in the court of law!


Meagler said...

Milo, bad things dont just happen at night...you have teens hopefully you know that!!

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

Friends of ours, when the husband was just a teenager, he was just in his home having dinner with his family. Intruders came in, I believe they claimed they wanted to use the phone. They killed both his parents and shot him too but he survived.

I bet he wishes to god his dad had had a gun. He was an ORPHAN because of those psychopaths. This stuff happens and yes this is everything we feared, that someone would follow and hunt down someone in this family onto their private property and perhaps much worse.

Rhymes with Witch said...

Attempts to assassinate Pope John Paul, Ronald Reagan. Gerald Ford, John F. Kennedy, Lee Harvey Oswald, Malcolm X (the last 3 successful)
all happened in broad daylight.

President Ford was surrounded by Secret Service and shot by a women. James Brady was permanently disabled. (The Brady Bill,
Milo, hello.........)

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

Selena. Also shot by a woman.

So this ridiculous oh it was a woman oh it was broad daylight is just that: ridiculous.

Meagler said...

Another thing...none of the sheeple have mentioned the motion to dismiss or RH's answers with " I see you in court".

Do you really think they dont know, or has there been a bunch of DMing to each other to not mention this so mainstream media ( or ROL, TMZ, etc) or the rest of the masses dont find out about this?

Kate's lawsuit hit mainstream media, but these 2 responses have yet to do so... think its deliberate?

HMMM...

This bears repeating, as we can certainly come up with innumerable examples from the "crew daddies" to the run in CT (child on Emily's
lap) and so on.

Sunset Blvd said...

I know Jon was within his rights, and he certainly made his point with the stalker. However, ever since I heard that he carries a gun in the waistband of his pants, I have been a little apprehensive. He has eight kids coming in and out of his house, and to me, it just seems like perfect situation for a terrible accident to occur. I hope and pray that never happens. It must be difficult to weigh the pros and cons of carrying a deadly weapon, especially in Jon's situation. I can certainly understand Jon's concern. What if it has been Ms Goody coming to live out her fantasies?

Meagler said...

The comments by Milo that it " was just a woman" is an attempt to emasculate Jon.

The Facts listed by others of very real situations where people have been killed by "just a woman" proves that woman can too be dangerous.

Equality at its ( not so) finest...

cathyn518 said...

I haven't posted in ages but have stopped by fairly regularly to keep up with this continuing drama. I have always felt so sorry for the Gosselin 8 but now I am finding myself feeling almost more sympathy for Jon. So many people are seizing on the statement he made about not paying child support on the ET interview to call him a deadbeat Dad. Isn't it obvious who has the money the children made by comparing lifestyles? Now Jon reacts to a strange woman on his property with firing off a warning and he is called a menace. All the obsessed twitter haters are woman, he was understandably feeling threatened.

To read amazon discussions you may type this address: www.amazon.com/Kate-Gosselins-Love-Mix-Family.../forum/
or just google Amazon, discussion forum on Love is in the mix
The discussions used to be at the bottom of the page where her book is sold on Amazon, but it has been moved. We have been commenting there for months. Very amusing.

Since this pap made money by selling this photo while committing an illegal act should that money not be forfeit? The very little I know about the law suggests no one can profit from an illegal act. I know, I know, people do it all the time -- but this was so blatant. Is there recourse?

OrangeCrusher1 said...

If you google Old Navy coupons you can find plenty out there, on your own. I fail to understand why anyone would go to her website, so convoluted. If she had a following of more than a dozen people, nope, still makes no sense to me. Sorry, Kate, this is NOT a job.

Rhymes with Witch said...

So this ridiculous oh it was a woman oh it was broad daylight is just
that: ridiculous. 13

One of the traits that the sheeple (not including generic fans) appear to have in common with TFW is a belief in rigid gender stereotypes.

For every one of TFW's "can do" moments, there are scores of "poor helpless me" examples.

Rhymes with Witch said...

One more thing. Before anyone says the woman following Jon didn't have a gun, NO ONE knows that except her and I'll bet she'll never
admit it if she did.

Jon is deliberately living somewhere in private. He has his rights. The pap should be charged with trespassing. Period. Jon did the right thing. I've lived out in the country. It's scary sometimes. You need protection and 911 takes too long if you feel threatened. He aplenty has been threatened or he would not carry a gun.

Re: Old Navy and the boys. TFW probably bought their shirts and pants last year. They just rolled up sleeves and cuffs, right?

And their shoes too so they can "man up".

Unknown said...

On Huffington Post's article about the incident, most of the responses I've read are on Jon's side. The responses seem to be focusing on the fact that Jon lives in the woods because he wants a ''private life'', and the fact that the woman followed him onto his property. Many simply responded variations of 'leave the man alone'.

Thank goodness most people (with the usual exception of TFW's most ardent fans) actually seem to 'get it'...Jon wants privacy and will protect that right, in contrast to TFMJG, who wants to be very public...even using Jon's children to bring attention to her!

Mel said...

I was thinking about the kids, too, and hoping they weren't there. And how frightened they must have been if they heard/saw it. At least they know that their dad can and will protect them.
Pretty sad that their privacy is again invaded. Will it never end for them?

Ally--thank you for the source of the dates.

"(CNN) -- After 10 years of marriage, Jon and Kate Gosselin's divorce was finalized by a Pennsylvania judge on Friday.
Kate Gosselin received primary custody of the couple's eight children and will continue to live with them in the former marital home, according to her attorney Mark Momjian, who added that Kate and her legal team "are very pleased with the final outcome."

What does the Wild Wild West mean? Huh?

But yes, PA is pretty darn rural. Has MILO ever lived there? I have, as have others. This is not Philly or Pittsburgh or even Harrisburg. It is going to take 10 minutes minimum to get a cop out there, realistically 20-30.

She stalked her all the way from his workplace to his home and came onto his property. He told her, asked her to stop repeatedly. She continued to take photos even as he finally resorted to his gun.

If that doesn't give any rational person a real healthy dose of fear of danger I don't know what was. She was NOT listening. The pap could have avoided this entire thing had she just turned around the first time he asked.

Yes Milo females have never hurt anyone. In the history of the world there are absolutely no incidents of females ever hurting anyone and certainly not celebrities.

Jumping In said...

Although I always want to defend Jon any chance I get, I really wish he had not fired that warning shot. I realize he was within his rights, this person was trespassing, but this will be spun badly. I agree with Mel, this is not good.

I can see him being randomly provoked at every opportunity now just to see what kind of reaction he'll provide. Remember, he is the stable parent, but now we have a picture of him pulling a gun out of his back pocket. Kate's camp will have a field day with this. The facts will be lost or twisted in her favour, that's how Jon's life goes, and that is just how TFW likes it, keeping him looking like the bad guy.

I don't know how threatened he felt, how frustrated he feels being back in the news, but honestly, I really wish he hadn't done that ET interview, he sort of blew his own cover, and now he will be hounded again.

Most of the tabloid press is already painting him as a guy who has hit "rock-bottom", who is living "in the woods" and a loser who is waiting tables for a living. His chosen humble life can easily be translated to a guy who has lost it all and has become unhinged in the process. And, that is my worry, how the tabloids will spin this incident, even though he had the right to run this person off his property.


Paula said...

@Jumping In....Do you really think Jon cares about how the tabloid press is going to spin this? He's been crucified for years from the tabloid press. He did nothing wrong in this case and quite frankly, the world does not revolve around, nor most normal people could care less, what the tabloid press writes.

swimgirl said...

Good grief, Milo, it is not his property, he rents? So only people who own their own houses can defend themselves? What about people who have mortgages, are they allowed to defend themselves? Is she serious? Sometimes all I can do is shake my head at her nonsense.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...


So if Milo were alone and a stranger followed her home and onto her private property, would she give the person a bear hug and invite him/her into her house for a piece of pecan pie and a cup of coffee?


&&&

Probably. And then days later probably tweet passive aggressively about how she gives and gives and her stalker doesn't appreciate it. She gave her a piece of pie and the stalker didn't even bother to rent a plane to spell I love you Milo in the sky over her house. The nerve.

Anonymous said...

WWSD?

Those fans (if that is what they think they are to KG) need to ask themselves, if it had been STEVE instead of JON, what would Steve do?

Most logical people know the answer to that question. And, rightfully so.

That Milo person is borderline on a flip. When he/she is not the center of all of the attention, it goes into panic mode and each episode is worse than the last, aka the link to the twitter pic saying he/she was not appreciated, then today all good back at the helm.

It sayn' it was going to KG's house that night was beyond creepy. He/she put it out there and made it very real that she/he actually thought about doing it until people were like biatch, what is wrong with you?

What if that was a "Milo" type person going after JG or his kids?
WTF would you do people? The po po need to leave JG alone as he has every right to protect his self and his family and his property.

Milo wonder what you will say when you get subpoenaed someday?

But the problem is...Jon was perfectly w/in his legal rights to do what he did. He's 2 for 2, while TFW is 0 for everything.

She surely wasn't driving AND taking focused pics. Or had she stopped? (Even more scary to think about.)

And just exactly how did Jon know that the people in the car didn't have a gun or other weapon? He didn't know, and couldn't know.

I wonder how Milo would like some person following her home, and then taking photos to plaster all over the tabloids/internet, totally invading her privacy, her carefully hidden abode.

Kate is beautiful. She is. She was pretty before the improvements. She did not need them and this was one time, perfect example, where enhancements actually went against a celeb. Fans wanted a "mommy" figure.

Who ever it was that kept telling her to re-invent herself is, imo, the sole reason her career was derailed. Not cause of ex or author. I agree with CAI and EmT. She lost her way... and lost self awareness.

When she posed down under for BG in front of her kids like a PB model, selling her own adult type layout pics, she was pretty much finished. People can not get that image out of mind, and it helped to ruin her career, even though she was breathtakingly beautiful. Wrong place, wrong time Katie.

Mel, those are very good questions, especially the last one. Milo has tweeted over and over that she lives in the country at the end of a winding road AND that she has been 'stalked'. Milo has tweeted many times that the stalker is the reason she protects her children's privacy so carefully.
(I suppose we are supposed to ignore that while carefully protecting her own children's privacy, she has zero respect for the privacy of Jon Gosselin's children!)

I have seen her fans say many, many times that they will stand by Kate no matter what. Is this stubbornness, stupidity or embarrassment as a way to save face when they know they're wrong? I'm guessing that it's all three.

I don't think Kate was was ever "beautiful." I think she was a nice looking young mom with a pretty smile. I also cannot agree that whomever told her to reinvent herself was the "sole" reason her career tanked. She has nothing to offer talent-wise. And she can't even do an interview of someone else without making it about herself. She's solely responsible for why she cannot get another job in media (or anywhere else apparently.)

OrangeCrusher1 said...

Kate is many things; and before she took to the knife and whatever else she has done, she had a fresh and attractive look. Breathtakingly beautiful is/was not a KG descriptor. She has ruined her career with the total lack of beauty that is her inner core. Actually, what career? A few years of nursing, a few years of reality tv?

Ex Nurse said...

ITA that Jon acted appropriately. I am not a gun advocate, and, I sincerely hope that he has had extensive training. If he is in a rural area that is off the map, then the authorities may not be able to get there in a timely manner, either. This is wear the groupthink of the sheeple really shows a lack of critical thinking, or, even, common sense.

I think that Jon has possibly underestimated the interest and the risk of returning to the public eye. The recent media coverage of his new job and the lawsuit will generate interest, and he probably needs to be very attentive--especially if someone is behind him for the entire trip home. It certainly isn't his fault that he has been dragged into the public eye again by TFW's lawsuit. If you think about it, if it hadn't been this pap, it would have been another one--it would be just a matter of time.

I think Jon should press charges, if for no other reason, to show that he is serious about his, and the kids' privacy.

This is my last post on the wording of the motion--promise! The fact that the posters that responded disputed different aspects of the wording shows that it is not straightforward. Some people thought that it was an earlier set of disks than the final set, putting the date in late 2009. Others thought that it was the final set, but that it occured after the custody hearing. Why not just say the date? Why tie it to the divorce date, which was finalized with TFW getting primary custody, in December 2009, if it actually took place in April 2010? Why only say he had access to the house, if he also had continued access to the apartment? It seems that this would be the time to lay out a very solid, unambiguous timeline of events. Should be absolutely black and white, not shades of grey.

She doesn't look hot. Trust me on that. I have never seen such a wrinkled neck on someone so young. With all of her other "improvement techniques" she has gone through, I'm surprised taking care of that wasn't first on her list.

In reading back over the posts here, I'm always intrigued that posters here are so smart, so way ahead of the game. Someone commented that this pap should go ahead and file a police report, but better watch out because she was trespassing on private property. Lo and behold, that's exactly what happened...and this pap person couldn't figure that out on her own?

"Yes Milo females have never hurt anyone. In the history of the world there are absolutely no incidents of females ever hurting anyone and certainly not celebrities.

Goodness, talk about ignorance."

If one is that ignorant, would you advertise your stupidity on Twitter? When you're this stupid, you don't confirm it! Then again, maybe she's too dumb to know she's dumb. What a conundrum.

Jon gave an interview and never once used her name. He called her ''my former wife'' every single time. I had been using KK, because Jon and the children are Gosselins, but she is not. On this blog, we started using TFW, and TFMJG. I don't know about the others, but every time I see TFW or TFMJG, I think of it as supporting Jon.

56...Kate is pretty and she is beautiful to look at, at certain times. Her twitter pic is beautiful. Her bikini pics were beautiful in the white suit. I mean the girl is a looker. But, it gets her no where. And it is not the fault of the ex or the author.

Yes, beauty is only skin deep. True..The point I was trying to make is; She had the looks, the body, the hair, the smile to make it as something really, really big as a celeb. And friends, she is a celeb, just as JG is a celeb too. Bad as some hate to admit, she is a celeb and so are her children.

But, she kept evolving into something else on a regular basis. Like what has been discussed before. God wife renewing her vows, a book author, an organic food expert. Single mom farmer. Expert cook, perfect mom, triathlete marathon runner, spokesperson, blogger, coupon queen, tv host, started or tried to start a line of childrens clothing. but none of it panned out.

Most of it fizzled long before RH came along or before the divorce, as she did not have any substantial credentials, education or training to back any of it up. She could not cut the mustard.

She thought her looks would carry her, and they didn't, no, not at all.

Jon Gosselin looks very scared in that picture and all of the anger should be placed on this woman stalker who followed him home AND TRESPASSED.

No NORMAL pap would have kept coming at him after he told her to stop several times. She should be charged by the authorities.

To me, this is serious and scary for JG. Had the woman not gone to the police to report the incident, I would have been more concerned that she may return. Anyone can call themselves a pap.

If there are no threats or danger Milo, why does KG need Steve Neild to bodyguard her? The children only have a fence and a dog when mommy leaves them. Not a nanny isn't going to have a weapon.

I said it years ago, saying it again today. WHAT A FREAKING MESS.

Smoochie said...

I have never responded directly to a post here to dispute someone else's statement, but, feel I should do so now.

Pixie said "...The blind devotion to Jon confuses me. Now that he thinks he's George Zimmerman, it confuses me even more."

I do not see blind devotion to Jon. I see defense of Jon, debate over his behaviour, some positive, some negative, but not blind devotion. However, that is your perception of what you believe to be true and thus your opinion, which is acceptable.

However, to say that he thinks he's George Zimmerman ... Jon was the one that was followed. Jon did not get in his car and follow this woman, get out of his car, confront her and then shoot her to death.

In this instance your comparison is not a perception, it's based on factual evidence of 2 events and this situation is nothing even remotely similar to what George Zimmerman did and your comparing Jon to him is infinitely unfair to Jon.

Correct, 73 percent of Americans support the 2nd amendment at least in some form, even if they believe in some restrictions. The repeal guns lobby is very vocal, and perhaps it has convinced people that it is a more support than it really does. It does not.

Lady, loosely used, JG was on his own property when a complete stranger came face to face with him. What would you have done different in this situation Pixie?

911 Help is at least 15-20 minutes away. Do pray tell, what would you have done to protect your children and yourself at that very moment of confrontation?

I still believe there is more to this story as to why she was there or who sent her. TFW leaving for her Gilligan Island Tour, the kids with dad, the lawsuit not swinging in her favor, the book is a downward spiral...Makes a reasonable person wonder...

It's so obvious Kate doesn't want to see her fans. She tweets how excited she is to meet them and sign their books but she refuses to put her schedule on her blog or even direct them to HCI's FB page. She's only got 3 signings and the Baltimore Book Fair. She can't tweet that to her poor fans?

Rain said...

Because his narcissist ex wife is a fame whore, the tabloid media think Jon is fair game. I say BS. He has had enough abuse. Go creep around TFW's house, just remember to bring gift cards and take off your shoes. And don't knock the rubber maid white plastic chair off its moorings.
I am willing to bet Kate Gosselin has made many many phone calls to the tabloid media when she is feeling down...or backed into a corner.

Now there will be problems with the job...who wants TMZ calling them all the time? (Although maybe this will be good for busines...all the paps coming in for dinner and requesting a certain waiter. :-))
And TFW will surely have her attys in court fighting for 100% custody now.
His lawyer hasn't realized yet that Jon just can't stay out of trouble.
A change in strategy is needed.

No such thing as coincidences. Calling his job, but the wrong place, following him home from his real job into the dirt driveway off the main road, refusing to turn around, setting him up with horrible questions on the interview, blocking him from DWTS..yea, thinking not a coincidence.

TMZ refuses to answer who she is, the infamous pap that went to police to protect her own azz, and that is called conspiracy. There is no pap to pap privilege law lol Harvey said it was not one of his but best friends with tfw attorney's.

Then why did TMZ crew and Kate's attorney keep calling the wrong place of employment?

Is JG in danger regarding this lawsuit?

TFW tour's will be a success or disaster?

The worst thing that ever happened to Jon Gosselin was meeting Katie Irene Kreider.
How does he now undo let alone survive the day to day nightmare of being attached to this attention starved narcissist?

Tabloids seem to care very little about the moral crimes allegedly admitted to in the journal. But more important in their eyes is to destroy this mans privacy which he has worked so hard for.

Canadian Mom said...

Thank goodness most people (with the usual exception of TFW's most ardent fans) actually seem to 'get it'...Jon wants privacy and will protect that right, in contrast to TFMJG, who wants to be very public...even using Jon's children to bring attention to her!

So Razamataz has been trying to call Jon's work place (but messing it up lol)? And incessantly? Good grief.

Well, I just thought this was all one big coincidence before, but now I'm not so sure. Was he calling to find out if Jon was there, when he was going to leave?? Hmmm. I'm sure as an attorney he knows that it is inappropriate and forbidden to try to contact the opposing party if he is represented. He is only permitted to talk to Shawn, Martin and any other assigned attorney to the case. He is not permitted to reach out to Jon, period. Just like Shawn and Martin may not speak to Kate.

So what's all this about Jon interfering with Kate's employment? Isn't your wife's attorney calling your workplace pretty darn interfering?? What a mess. What...a....mess.

I am reading from the bottom up, so all I know so far is someone followed Jon home, drove onto private property, refused to leave, and got a warning shot their way. If this is basically accurate, I agree - Jon has a right to defend himself. Who was the trespasser? Can charges be brought?

I wonder which aspect of the "heating up cans of stuff book" tour TFW is most excited by,
1. Having her hair/nails and tanning done again.
2. Traveling with Steve (guessing he is going).
3. Leaving the kids behind
4. Meeting her fans (she hasn't posted a schedule)

Huh? When was that? At one point in time, TFW was an attractive woman in her 30's. She had a natural prettiness, as long as she didn't open her big fat yap and let all the ugliness inside spew out. That was a relatively brief period of time, then she got into plastic surgery and altering her looks. Now she's generic looking. But never was she breathtakingly beautiful. Oy!

He is fair game out and about. The pap is welcome to take photos in public places as long as she is respectful, and people are welcome to comment on what he says and does publicly. He is not however fair game to be followed, stalked, and chased down to his property while he asks her repeatedly to stop. Go back and read the thread where Polly was at the corn maze. Even though that was a public place many of us me one of the most vocal said that was completely unacceptable. And that was in PUBLIC.

I never saw anyone here say that it is fair game to follow, stalk, or go on Kate's private property. Never. You give up a lot when you become a celeb, but you don't, should not have to give up your right to go on your private property and the right to be left alone there.

FYI said...

E!Online has a story about the incident. They contacted the police department for comment.

"The Mohnton Police Department confirms to E! News the photographer made a report that Gosselin fired a shot in the air, but she declined to request that police take action.

Police tell E! the photographer was on private property during the confrontation and in Pennsylvania it is legal for a citizen to fire a weapon on private property, especially in rural areas such as Beckersville.

Police will not be investigating the incident.

Perhaps he's never had a pap be this brazen and inappropriate before. Perhaps this is the first time it got so bad he had to resort to his firearm. If anything it speaks to how conservative he is about resorting to a weapon if he's never chosen to draw his weapon before. In the past we saw many videos/photos of the paps and they were all lined up at the fence, standing around pleasantly behaving respectfully. I have heard that they occasionally would follow the van, but it was a "safe" follow; I've never heard that it was an actual chase onto private property like Princess Diana chase. When the pap filmed the children crying at the gate, he stood a respectful several yards back, and he did not follow the van once it went past the gate. He was not asked to stop filming.

Not being there, we have no idea how bad it was. From what he said, he was yelling at her repeatedly to stop. From the pictures, he appears terrified. She did something to strike such a look of terror on his face. Perhaps it was chasing him down a private unpaved country road in the middle of the woods with the cops at least 20 minutes out that did it, just a guess.

Plus, he's in the middle of a messy lawsuit and just made a lot of people very upset with his kick-butt 12b6. He is supposed to be the doormat. But this week he took Kate on. He has ever reason to believe he is at risk far more than he's ever been before.

Exactly. Of course they're not. Nothing to investigate. Other than the pap herself I suppose.

------------------

Exactly. Had the situation been reversed, and it was Kate who was stalked and someone had come onto her property, I think that she would have every right to defend herself, her kids and her property the same way that Jon did. It's not fair game to follow, stalk or harass anyone on the celebrity's own turf. Period.

As far as I know, Jon got along with paps and they liked him. He always seemed polite and affable with them and with fans. What happened last night was something totally different and unacceptable...I don't care if it was Jon or Kate -- neither is fair game at the homes, no matter how much they put themselves "out there."

And of course he may have had death threats that the public doesn't know about. He certainly is aware of the crazies on Twitter and the internet.

Hey ya'll still reading here on a regular basis. I was using my iPad and cannot post from it yet.
Also, when I post, I'm usually reading it 3 or4 hours late and ya'll are already on another subject, so I don't get responses.

Just have to say how much I admire Jon for the hard work he has done to stay out of the lime light.

Kate on the other hand is even more evil and extremely dangerous because of her mental illness. She will never be treated because she is too full of herself.

What gets me is the fact that no one in her family has stepped in to do something and they never ever do interviews. I know they signed papers to keep their mouth shut but this is a severe mental illness, she is a danger to herself and others. Never know when this woman is going to snap and that's scary.

I would think the confidential documents they signed to keep them quiet would not apply to a medical emergency like an intervention.

It really disturbs me that they do nothing. I'm sure they hear and read all about her and the kids. The longer they stay silent, she will continue in her illness.

Hope everyone has a wonderful Sunday, and GO SAINTS!

Yes, Millicent, that's the word I was thinking of, TFW now has looks that are generic! Notice that so many of the pretty blondes these days are starting to look all the same? If you have a free year, and a minimum of around $50,000., then you also can be nipped and tucked and sucked to look just like the rest of the generic blondes.
And I read somewhere on-line a while back, that someone was taking screen shots of all of goody's terrible tweets, and was going to send them to the cops at one time. I wonder if that person will be sending them to J & R's lawyers, so they can see what Jon has been threatened with. She has sure said a ton of terrible and scary things about him.

Driving like a nut behind JG, following JG home from his job, HIS JOB! Driving off the county paved road, into the woods on a dirt road, with no one around, and refuses to leave, then puts him and his family in danger, and no charges are filed against her?

Huh?

Hope his attorney can find out why she did this. She had to show ID when she went to Police.

Lord knows he has one of the best attorneys, and praise G-d for that blessing. Good, caring attorneys are hard to find.

I am just catching up after a busy day. Lots of news! Jon did exactly what he had to i'm the circumstances.
My personal experience colors my reaction to Jon confronting the trespasser. We used to live in Middle of Nowhere Woods, Virginia. I was alone with my dogs and children at times. If a strange vehicle came up our long dirt driveway that was clearly not a public road, I would meet them with my shotgun visible. Not aimed at anyone but visible. That and the pit bulls kept strangers away. If we would have needed help, the sheriffs dept was thirty minutes away. Ambulance further.
I wish it kept the neighbors cows away. They were forever getting out and eating my azaleas. Now I live in Rural But Not Middle of Nowhere Virginia and the deer eat my azaleas. I can't do target practice in the backyard like I could at other place, either.

If you think you might know something in to regards of a suggestion or detail, mention it, if you want to help the team.

There is a really nice article in our local Reading Eagle newspaper today about Jon.

They have not done anything like this for Kate. At the most they might put in a couple sentences like when she was on Dancing With The Stars but they have not interviewed her personally. She has no one to blame but herself for that. This is what happens Kate when you when you are rude and nasty to those around you.

Mary, Thank you for the link to the great Reading Eagle newspaper article about Jon! I especially liked his quote: "I have a feeling, a really good feeling," he said. "This is like the first time in five years that I've had a good feeling, that this is going to work. And things are going to change. And it's going to be fun."

It sounds like Jon is in a good place and he's feeling positive and hopeful - he sure deserves it. I think he's definitely had enough of TFW and with the suit and finally some good representation, he decided nothing and nobody is going to get in the way of him being with his kids and his happiness. I'm so happy that he's happy!

I'm glad the police have the name and other pertinent info regarding the female trespasser. She clearly was way out of line, and to me that indicates someone who has no respect for the law. I hope the police at least ran a quick background check to see if she has any prior run-ins with the police. Very creepy behavior and I hope Jon at least files a report against her so if she harrasses anyone else, they give her more than a slap on the wrist.

Dmasy said...

We didn't know that Jon's Grandmother had passed away. (Because his life is, for the most part, private!)

Jon, if you do check in here, please know that I am sorry that you lost someone close to you. Cherish your memories.

In the article photos, Jon is wearing the same clothes he had on during the confrontation with the trespasser.

Looks like it was the same day/night and would explain why the article doesn't mention the gun incident.

SeeSaw said...

It just occurred to me that his clothes are probably a uniform. Scratch what I said about timing. It's too early here.

And Jon is working two jobs.

Katykat said...

Interesting, and totally believable, that he mentions that HE is the one w/ OCD. HE was always cleaning, fixing, etc...while TFW w/ the "Supposed OCD" sat on her flat ass and did nothing. I think she definitely has a case of LLCD (Lying and Lazy Compulsive Disorder).

Mel said...

From the article:
Obviously there's a lot of things going on in the realm of things. But, I'm fine with everything. Because I know what I know. I know what the truth is." 
------------------
He's said that before, a few years ago. Something then about he's not worried about the kids, they know the truth.

He seems to be coming from a place of internal peace right now, which can only come from the truth.

Unlike TFW who is still viciously clawing her way somewhere.

Mel said...

Interesting, Jon works TWO jobs, whereas TFW is piecing and patching.

SeeSaw said...

It does bother me that every article notes that he's not paying child support but neglects to mention he is supporting them financially during his custody time.

Jon is piecing and patching, too. Working two jobs probably helps him patch together a schedule that gives him time with the kids. Just a guess/opinion.

Mel said...

I don't understand why BV outs people who are exercising their first amendment rights to free speech but not this stalker.

The internet posters are expressing their opinion of Kate, sometimes pretty nastily and crudely, but it's still free speech. They're not saying it to her face. It's a place she can choose not to be and therefore not see it. And, she indeed says herself that SHE DOESN'T SEE IT.

This stalker on the other hand, physically threatened Jon's safety. She was on his private property, refusing to leave, taking photos of him.

If that's not bullying, I don't know what is.

Oh. Only TFW has paid you? You're not interested if you're not paid?
I see.

FYI said...

Mary-thanks for posting the link to the Reading Eagle article.

So Jon works 2 jobs--that's 2 more than TFW has. I was wondering why it was first reported that he worked at Emily's and then it was reported that he worked at the Black Dog. This article clarified that by saying he works at both places.

I was very sorry to hear that his grandmother passed away. May she RIP.

"Still, Church added: "It wasn't like I wanted Jon to work here because it was Jon. He's an awesome guy. He really is."

How often does anyone, other than the Head Ewe and the Mini Sheep, say this about Kate?

@Kateplusmy8 how do you precook and reheat later? I can't get a grip on that aspect of it. #helpeatbetter

Is this the same one who couldn't figure out how to freeze cookies and defrost them?

Jon is working 2 JOBS! kate works none. She pieces and patches her website. If she really wanted to make money, she would have ads, ads, ads on there. It would be a really nice one. But there is a monkey wrench in that deal, she is too lazy to do it. She could work from home doing pharmaceutical nursing calls, something.

She is home all day all week and the weekends. You know she is salivating at the thought of getting back on the road with Steve.

Auntie: food service position. AHHAHAHHAHAHA!
how funny! I thought of her working at the local Morrison's cafeteria and her throwing out the food like she does the kids one at a time and saying, You get what you get and you don't get upset!

So glad that well written article came out when it did. Maybe it will make Jon feel just a little better. You know the kids heard all about this. Just another thing kate allowed to happen IMHO so when the kids go to school tomorrow what they face at school. She is so cruel.

Jon definitely needs to get a holster gun belt. Much easier to handle. Please Jon press charges on the pap.

Well, that was a refreshing morning read. Hmmm, let's see, JG is working as a maitre'd, not waiting tables, at two restaurants near home. He tripped into the jobs not out of desparation but rather by chance having arranged a post funeral family meal there. His bosses like him and think he's good for their business. Oh, he takes his kids out around town, EVERYWHERE, and apparently chaos does not ensue. And what does he say about their television life? To paraphrase, it was just a job, a revenue stream.


Sounds like someone has grown up a lot, those are the words of a mature man. Not a word about TFW, or for that matter, anything about his dating life. Perhaps Liz is not longer in the picture as he has a lot of free time for a second job. Hope you read this article, sheeple, though it won't go down easy.

Meanwhile TFW is busily cooking away, throwing crapbook food in the freezer for her kids while she packs for her world tour - what was it again, 3 or 4 book signings and some media buzz she probably should avoid under the circumstances? I think I would choose Jon's life these days, it's what we might call authentic.

I love how RE called her his former wife too. It takes away so much power from her with that simple name change. I'm glad he's in a much better place. Also this was before the pap incident and I noticed how he stressed how safe and secluded his home is. To have someone invade that sanctuary was obviously very distressing.

I can't get a grip on what she can't get a grip on.

Mary, thank you for the Reading Eagle article.

KatyKat, the OCD statement leaped out at me also. Jon is OCD, not Kate.

The article was wonderful because it showed (to me) that Jon is really a down to earth person. Doesn't pretend to be someone he's not and likes people. He was gone through a very long and vicious storm thanks to TWF. Now it seems he is well connected with his children, his family and his community. Good for him. He deserves happiness.

E!Online has a story about the incident. They contacted the police department for comment. 

"The Mohnton Police Department confirms to E! News the photographer made a report that Gosselin fired a shot in the air, but she declined to request that police take action.
------------------
That's weird. Mohnton is not the proper jurisdiction for the complaint anyway. Jon doesn't live there.

Also, I disagree with the poster who said it is a VERY rural area and  would take police a long time to respond. It's not that rural and "off the map" like people are thinking. Police response time would likely be within 10 minutes.

That said, I don't think it matters and Jon's response was appropriate IMO.

This is kind of self explanatory.

What's so hard to get about pre-cooking then reheating??

I swear I thought that was a joke when I first read it. Then I remembered how many dumb questions like that Kate actually gets.

Ex Nurse said...

Canadian Mom, ITA with you about guns. I was raised in big cities, and so I was not raised with hunting. From the people that I know that were raised with guns, mostly from rural areas of the country, it is a rite of passage and very much a part of everyday life. 

If guns only killed other people who choose to own guns, then I would say it isn't my business. The mother of the shooter in the CT school massacre had an arsenal of weaponry available for her deranged son. While her death is a tragedy, I feel that her own decisions led to her own death at the hands of her son. Certainly  not true of the heroic teachers, staff and innocent children that died because of that person's decision. My daughter is a kindergarten teacher, so that really hit close to home. 

And still, arguments are made in defense of gun ownership, free of background checks or meaningful limitations on assault weapons. As an American, it is an embarrassment. 

I read the Reading Eagle article, and it was good to hear that Jon is finally able to reach a peaceful place, and will hopefully live out his life free of threats and harassment. Hopefully, this incident will remind him of the importance of staying alert to his surroundings.  He seems to have a trusting nature, and, sometimes that gets him in hot water. Often, our character assets can also be our character defects.

Did I really just read someone characterize TFW as "breathtakingly beautiful" ???

She was pretty at one time, but now she looks like a million other women who have nipped, tucked, pulled, peeled, suctioned, sculpted, botoxed, bleached, fried, firmed, sprayed, spackled, hairsprayed, hoisted, lifted, lasered, and veneered their natural looks into oblivion.

I would reserve "breathtakingly beautiful" for the likes of Elizabeth Taylor and Grace Kelly.

Oh well. Different strokes I guess. Either that, or someone needs new glasses.

pym said...

If these rumours are true 1. TFW's lawyer has been trying to contact Jon (or did they mean to just contact his employer?)and 2. the offending pap was a friend (agent) of TFW's lawyer, then this incident is much, much bigger that it first appears to be. I do hope Jon's people are investigating.

Interesting, and totally believable, that he mentions that HE is the one w/ OCD. HE was always cleaning, fixing, etc...while TFW w/ the "Supposed OCD" sat on her flat ass and did nothing.

Yes, Katykat, and Robert specifically mentions in his book that it is Jon, not Kate, who is the neat freak.
