UPDATE: In April 2015, the Gold Bar Reporter reviewed email communication from the City of Duvall documenting that Michael Kenyon’s Office was giving a non-city employee resident John E Pennington legal advice. The Reporter requested these records after records between corrupt Duvall police officer Lori Batiot documented racketeering and gross 1983 civil rights violations. Lori Batiot took predicate acts on behalf of John and Crystal Hill Pennington trying to trump criminal charges on the Gold Bar Reporter, because Ms. Batiot was concerned that her very personal relationship with the Penningtons would become public. What happened next should never happen to any news reporter, ever, for simply reporting the news on corrupt acts of public officials.
Since 2009, Lori Batiot, Crystal Hill Pennington and John E. Pennington ( The Enterprise) have made at least 8 attempts to have the Gold Bar Reporters charged with crimes for simply reporting on their criminal conduct. All are public officials misusing federal and state monies, but they didn’t do it alone. The Enterprise were given full access to government resources, and staff, specifically Snohomish County Prosecutors Sean Reay, Sara Di Vittorio, Miquel Tempski, and Mark Roe, City of Redmond Officers, King County Sheriff’s Officer Cary Coblantz, and City of Duvall public officials including Kenyon Disend’s legal staff, and Shelly Rowe to further the Enterprise’s efforts to trump up criminal charges on the Gold Bar Reporter for simply reporting on their corrupt acts.
As of October 23, 2016, four judges have dismissed Batiot, and Crystal Hill and John E Pennington attempts to racket up criminal charges on the Gold Bar Reporter. A source tipped us off last week that immediately following a Pierce County Judge’s favorable ruling for the Gold Bar Reporter- stanch respect for the First Amendment- Crystal Hill, John Pennington and Lori Batiot are once again trying to trump up criminal charges on the Gold Bar Reporter, and with no surprise once again trying to drag yet another Redmond City Official into their little RICO.
When I first reported on this story I had no idea on how deep the City of Redmond’s involvement was in assisting John E. Pennington with fraudulently closing out his criminal assault case, until now.
In 2009, when John E. Pennington filed a template motion dismissing his criminal assault of a 3rd trimester pregnant woman, he had the assistance of a Redmond District Court Prosecutor , clerk inside Redmond District Court and Kenyon Disend. This is also during the twelve year reign of King County Deputy Prosecutor Maggie Nave ( “The Fixer”) who was then the Chair of Distrcit Court Criminal Unit for King County District system. Nave was reprimanded in 2011, by King County Deputy Prosecutor Chief of Criminal Division Mark Larsen who seized 117 case files backing back as far as 1999 from her office. Mr Larsen stated Nave’s was guilty of legal malpractice- an understatement for those maliciously prosecuted as result. Once the Gold Bar Reporter started reporting on Ms. Nave, she resigned.
Had not been for the political deal John Pennington and Aaron Reardon made with Michael Kenyon ( in exchange for fixing cases in Snohomish County) to throw the criminal case against John E. Pennington, he would be behind bars where he belongs, and his countless victims would be out of harm’s way. Possibility that 43 people in Oso Washington wouldn’t have suffocated to death.
Instead Prosecutor Mark Roe, Duvall’s corrupt officials, and the City of Redmond decided to assist a wife/child abuser in exchange for political favors. ” If anyone really understood that no one even likes John Pennington no one would have lifted a finger on behalf of the Enterprise.”
If someone asked me to commit a crime, I’d tell them to kiss my ass and then file a criminal complaint. Sadly not one public official reported their criminal conduct.
Sadly, Kenyon Disend, Lori Batiot, the City of Duvall, the City of Gold Bar, Joe Beavers, Crystal Hill Pennington, Diana Rose ( who assisted Pennington with tampering with public records ) , Ron Fejfar, all took predicate acts and all are being sued for RICO with depositions against Batiot, Crystal Hill, City of Duvall and Joe Beavers beginning this week.
After Crystal Hill and Lori Batiot were notified of court depositions, a source tipped us off that we might ask for records from the City of Duvall and City of Redmond. Of course . . . once we have more, an update will follow.
One thing I am thankful for is that the Washington State Bar Association will finally be exposed as the criminal organization it is, and the wrongfully accused may find effective assistance of counsel. Counsel not threatened by the criminals who are illegally serving in a duel role as Bar disciplinary member and a statement/county prosecutor even though RCW prohibits it.
Crystal Hill Pennington’s deposition is Dec6, 2016, but in Joe Beavers’s deposition he admitted he conspired to harm the Gold Bar Reporter and was writing and publishing articles on the Sky Valley Chronicle while he was a Gold Bar public official.
John Pennington is being sued for racketeering and a new law suit against Gold Bar Reporter is coming next, but this time out of state.
On February 22, 2017, Pierce College public official and man responsible for killing of 43 people in the Oso mudslides, John E. Pennington, verbally assaulted a Pierce County Sheriff’s Officer caught on camera. He also verbally threatened the Gold Bar Reporter’s process server who served John Pennington with more complaints and a subpoena.
Unfortunately, John Pennington’s criminal conduct was caught on camera and witnessed by several onlookers at the Piece County Courthouse, including three Sherriff’s Officers.
The Gold Bar Reporters recently learned that John Pennington has been treated for major mental health problems, and was kicked out of Vanderbilt College as a result.
Imagine a man with mental health problems sat as a Director of Emergency Management of Snohomish County. A major breach to health and welfare to the taxpayers of Washington State.
John Pennington is being sued for his latest racketeering crimes and posting defamatory and untrue statements on a website he and his bank frauding wife Crystal Hill Pennington run titled ” The Sky Valley Chronicle.” Both were served with new complaints on Thursday, and by John Pennington’s threats and tactics to intimidate court officers were witnessed on camera.
” Looney Tunes, What’s up Doc? ”
“Lunatic on the loose” John E Pennington has been trying for over eight years to obtain a prior restraint on free speech against the Gold Bar Reporter’s reports on his and our former bank frauding Mayor Crystal Hill Pennington ( nee Berg, bank fraud Snohomish County, Washington 2005). Why, to hide their criminal racketeering conduct the Gold Bar Reporter have been exposing for over the last ten years, including a foe online website the Penningtons set up to cyber-stalk their opponents.
Gold Bar’s Mayor Joe Beavers was deposed in November 2016, and he too admitted he was a anonymous cyber-stalker on the Penningtons’ website while he was a Gold Bar public official. Beavers and the City are being sued for gross civil rights violations.
On Thursday February 22, 2017, the lunatics tried for the tenth time to obtain a restraining order against the Gold Bar Reporter, but this time forum shopping in Pierce County. A county where Crystal Hill Pennington doesn’t live and a county where John Pennington managed to fraud state taxpayers ( and our children) with false academic credentials obtaining a job teaching our youngsters.
Imagine you sign up for Homeland Security degree at Pierce College and your classes are being taught by a man who has admitted to having and using false academic credentials
FALSE ACADEMIC CREDENTIALS, JOHN E. PENNINGTON’S FRAUD
UPON THE TAXPAYERS
http://www.gao.gov/new.items/d04771t.pdf ( GAO)
http://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/local-fema-chief-had-little-disaster-experience/ ( Seattle Times report on John Pennington’s false credentials)
Please see the attached ABOVE PDF Government Accountability Report ( or link provided above) on public official John E Pennington’s online diploma mill school of choice. I also include Seattle Times article in support of John Pennington’s false academic credential.
As both reports unmistakably confirms the IRS found that California Coastal sold degrees at flat rates. As such, Mark Lindquist, please consider this letter and supporting evidence in support on my criminal complaint against John E. Pennington as he produced his fraudulent online degree to obtain a benefit in violation of

As for Pierce College, I’d like some comment from the Dean of Students and/or Board of Trustees Chair Ms. Roseblatt on why Pierce College approved employment of John E. Pennington with such fraudulent degrees.
As a taxpayer, I have standing to bring not only a criminal complaint for John Pennington false filings, but also a civil charge for state ethics violations.
Our children deserve better from us.
VERBALLY ASSAULTING COURT OFFICERS
John E. Pennington has yet one more credential to add his resume, threatening public and court officers.
With each new credential, the Gold Bar Reporter will update his resume.
Criminal charges have been filed against John E Pennington with his court appearance this month.
Pierce College, Tacoma, instructor, caught forging court record
John E. Pennington, terminated from FEMA and Snohomish County for conduct unbecoming of a public officer, now caught forging documents with Pierce County District Court
John E. Pennington, an instructor with Pierce College, caught forging a court record last week in Tacoma, Washington.
It all started when the Gold Bar Reporter did what we’re supposed to do as a journalist, contacted him for comment about an upcoming article involving his false academic credentials. Credentials John Pennington placed into public records at Pierce College, fraudulently obtaining a teaching position, a crime in Washington State.
RCW 9A.60.070
False academic credentials—Unlawful issuance or use—Definitions—Penalties.
According to Pierce College, Tacoma, John E. Pennington did fraudulently use false Academic credentials to obtain a position at the College by falsely submitting that he has accredited college degrees.
John E. Pennington did knowingly falsify his academic credentials to Pierce College to obtain a employment, and is guilty of this crime as well.
In 2005, the Seattle Times published a story about John Pennington’s academic school of choice correctly stating the IRS held that California Coastal College ( John E. Pennington’s online school of choice) sold degrees at a flat rate.”
See http://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/local-fema-chief-had-little-disaster-experience/
False fraudulent academic diplomas managed to slip by former Executive Aaron Reardon ( who the Gold Bar Reporter proudly got rid of as the criminal harasser he is as evidenced by the Snohomish County Herald’s Feb 13, 2013 article http://201-dhwebvarnish.newscyclecloud.com/article/20130214/NEWS01/702149999 ) inside Snohomish County’s Emergency Management too.
This contributed to the deaths (Black’s law dictionary, negligent homicide equates to killing) of 43 people in the Oso mudslides disaster. Had Snohomish County had an educated person at the helm of Emergency Management, 43 people would more than likely be alive today.
King County’s Major Crimes Unit public records document that Aaron Reardon’s executive officers had so much time on their hands to post defamatory articles on a website the trio set up titled ” The Sky Valley Chronicle” – a website to control the political message in the Sky Valley ( Monroe to Index).
John E. Pennington’s wife Crystal Hill Pennington was anonymously cyber-stalking anyone who dared question Aaron Reardon’s gang of thieves. Gold Bar’s Mayor Joe Beavers admitted under oath a deposition two weeks ago that he too was cyber-stalking people on the Sky Valley Chronicle.
Crystal Hill Pennington’s deposition is scheduled for December 6, 2016, and an update will follow.
Now this, Pierce College Trustees hired a man with fake credentials who killed 43 people, beats on women and abuses our kids? What the hell is going on inside Washington State that a man who has harmed so many people is allowed to fraud our future leaders?
Our kids deserve much more, as such, the Gold Bar Reporter filed a complaint against Pierce College, Tacoma, with the U.S. Department of Education as this is fraud.
In 2013, John E. Pennington, a resident of Duvall, Washington, applied for a position on the Duvall Washington Library Board. Pennington’s application was rejected, the basis according to the Board Chair ” he had no respect for the First Amendment.”
So its no surprise that once we started investigating John E. Pennington false credentials by requesting access to public records at Pierce College ( RCW 42.56), John E. Pennington committed more fraud, but this time on Pierce College’s dime.
On October 24, 2016, a forged Snohomish County Process of Service paper was filed by Penningtons whiting it out ( forgery) knowingly falsely filing an instrument with a public office.
On October 27, 2016, John E. Pennington appeared in front of Pierce County District Court ( where he nor his wife resides), sworn in captured on video camera, falsely certifying under oath that he served the Gold Bar Reporter with his petition for restraining order ( prior restraint on free speech prohibited in the U.S.), attempting to SLAPP down the Gold Bar Reporter’s message.
A First Amendment lawyer stated ” Prior Restraints on free speech in America are considered a violation of my civil rights.”
According to the Snohomish County Sherriff’s Office, John E. Pennington forged the original document, and the unforged document delivered to John Pennington is this one:
After John E.Pennington forged the document:
SLAPP suits carry a $10, 0000.00per offense penalty. An issue we suspect John E. Pennington could care less about as public records document that he cant pay his mortgage, so what’s a judgment for $50K?
Congrads to Pierce College, Tacoma, Washington, not only did the Board of Trustees hire a child/wife abuser, they also hired a man now guilty of perjury and forgery.
The Gold Bar Reporter filed a new complaint in King County seeking damages, and a Writ and Injunction ordering Pierce County off this case as not one person John Pennington fraudulently obtained a restraining order against lives in Pierce County.
The Gold Bar Reporter is seeking an additional $50,000.00 from the marital community of the Crystal Hill and John E. Pennington’s for severe emotional distress.
Late yesterday, we learned that Pierce County District ” vacated” the restraining order and there is a criminal felony investigation under way against John E. Pennington and Crystal Hill Pennington (convicted of bank fraud,2005, 2000) and the case will be transferred to King County ( where according to the documents below, John E. Pennington has had countless criminal harassment complaints against him in King County).
John E. Pennington is the same political appointee who the Seattle Times quoted as saying Washington State’s largest slide area was “Considered very safe.”
As the Seattle Times reporter Mike Cater ( also the reporter who reported on Pennington fake academic credentials) wrote “It was considered very safe,” Pennington said. “This was a completely unforeseen slide. This came out of nowhere.”
John Pennington’s statements about the Oso mudslides were in complete contrast Daniel Miller, a geomorphologist, who wrote about Oso landslide conditions in his 1997 report for the Washington Department of Ecology and the Tulalip Tribes. Miller used reports and memos from the 1950s, 1960s, 1980s and 1990s, to support his 1997 report that the Oso area was unstable and should be evacuated.
Miller also stated that he was stunned and troubled to return to the area in 2006, to see new homes being built instead of seeing homes being vacated.
Miller said “Frankly, I was shocked that the county permitted any building across from the river. . . It’s not unknown that this hazard exists.”
Miller contracted with the Environmental Protection Agency and U.S. Forest Service in 1997.
Immediately following the Oso mudslide disaster, the Gold Bar Reporter contacted Miller asking him ” if John E. Pennington’s email showed that he ( Pennington) approved building on the Oso mudslide area, do you think he should be charged with negligent homicide? He said ” if you have that kind of email, then Jay Inslee should order an outside agency to investigate John Pennington’s background.” We said ” we already did… and Snohomish County was aware that John Pennington had falsified his academic credentials and had countless abuse charges filed against him for criminal harassment and beating women. ” Miller’s voice crackled, and he sounded scared or tearful and hung up.
Obviously, Pierce College ( Tacoma) is a public agency subject to RCW 42.56, the Public Records Act. Too bad, John Pennington’s conduct is subject to public scrutiny.
Perhaps Pennington’s next job will actually require working, preferably in private industry, so several investigative reporters and I can sleep at night. Our children are worthy of our efforts to protect their future to be educated by people who have real college degrees.
Once the Department of Education issues its findings in this matter, it will be posted. Fraud like this harms all of us, and dummies down the U.S. educational system and will not go unchecked by the Gold Bar Reporter.
For those of my readers who haven’t read my last articles on John Pennington’s criminal history, please see below. The Gold Bar Reporter has NEVER been sued but welcome a suit.
John Pennington, terminated for Snohomish County
From FEMA to Snohomish County Washington and now to Pierce College ( Tacoma Washington diploma mill), dark secrets unearthed. Gold Bar Reporters were the first to report on John E. Pennington’s criminal conduct, a small portion of our report is outlined below
MEET JOHN ‘ THEODORE TED BUNDY” PENNINGTON
John Pennington was a troubled youth who, according to one source “had a major drug problem by the age of 16.” So it’s no surprise that in the late 1980’s, after being kicked out of Vanderbilt College in Tennessee after raping a female college student, John Pennington moved to a small suburban city just outside of San Diego California.
While in the San Diego area, John Pennington meets his new victim, who believe he legally married, so are calling her ex-wife # 1, Carla M.
Two years later, John Pennington fled from Southern California, again heading home to Nashville, only after two small boys made allegations of sexual abuse against him while on a church camping trip.
While in Tennessee, John Pennington made an unsuccessful run for an open State Rep. seat. After a landslide loss for Pennington, he again headed west. This time to Oregon where Pennington meets his next victim.
Mr. Pennington plead guilty to criminal assault 1 and harassment ( His ex filed suit for damages Washington County Case # D911027SC) after he hospitalized his fiancé in Oregon and stole items from the community.
As a result, John Pennington fled from Oregon to Vancouver Washington. While in Vancouver Washington, John Pennington meets his next victim. Sadly, they soon married.
While working in a coffee delivery business, John Pennington stole coffee grinding equipment from his previous employer and used this equipment to start-up a coffee shop in Kelso. Purpose was to make it look like he was an entrepreneur ( but he is really a sociopath) as to grab an uncontested Republican seat in Cowlitz County.
It worked, the uneducated college dropout John Pennington managed to get elected to an uncontested WA House of Representatives seat. Unfortunately for residents in New Orleans and Oso Washington, he met a powerful Washington State Republican leader, Jennifer Dunn.
In 1992, a 5-year-old girl was kidnapped, raped, and then tossed along a Cowlitz County road like a piece of trash. We sent our private investigators to Cowlitz County to talk with the lead Detective who confirmed the following facts:
John Pennington became one of two prime suspects for the following reasons:
(1) Pennington operated a coffee delivery route within six blocks of where the child was dumped after being raped; (2) he drove the same car; (3) he was in the area at the time of the child rape and could not explain his whereabouts; (4) his picture from 1992 is a complete match to the child and witness sketch drawing of the pedophile; (5) he relentlessly convinced his ex-wife to call the police attempting to divert attention away from himself and onto another man; and ( 6) He has continuous and countless charges of child and spousal abuse, a man who cannot keep his hands to himself.
Below is the press release as it relates to John E. Pennington’s rape of a 5 year old girl from Cowlitz County Washington
Unfortunately for the 5 year child, John Pennington meets a Kelso Washington city attorney named Michael Kenyon.
According to John Pennington’s divorce files he is also an abuser of prescription pills, and was detained at the US Mexico for having narcotics ( non-prescription pain pills) on his person while coming back into the US. Pennington has never denied this allegation.
In 1995, John Pennington was also a member of the Washington State Militia, a group dedicated to over throwing the United States government. ” John sat around for years obsessed about getting even with the Longview Washington news reporter for reporting that John was a member of the State militia.”
From 1992 to 2005, John Pennington’s violence grew with his ex-wife. # 2, Valerie. From pushing her down a flight of stairs as well as constant physical harassment, John Pennington never learned to keep his hands to himself.
But the case that raised our eyebrows is Mr. Pennington’s abuse on his ex-wife # 2 ( who is really ex-wife # 3) Anne Laughlin. Ms. Laughlin was a City of Duvall city council member at the time of Pennington’s assault of Anne. Anne was three weeks away from giving birth to her daughter when Pennington violently assaulted, kicked and punched Anne in the stomach and uterus. A real salt of the earth kind of man.
Since Ms. Laughlin was a Duvall city council member at the time, the City of Duvall sought a Special Prosecutor. The prosecutor assigned to prosecute wife beater John Pennington came from the law firm where Pennington’s buddy Michael Kenyon was employed.
In 2009 when Pennington assaulted Laughlin, this was his third domestic violence charge. This should have amounted to jail time for Pennington.
A close review of John Pennington’s Snohomish County travel records warrant a closer look into missing children in Washington, Alaska, Maryland. Public monies allowed us to review his credit card receipts, telephone records, etc. information that another blogger turned over to authorities.
Any grown man that takes a shower with a six year old little girl is a pedophile.
In 2011, Kenyon Disend’s junior attorney, Ann Marie Soto, received an email from John Pennington via Snohomish County computers demanding that Kenyon Disend redact police reports involving John Pennington criminal harassment and assault that we requested under RCW 42.56. There’s only one problem, at the time Pennington was communicating with Kenyon Disend’s attorney, he was not a City of Duvall employee thus no attorney client relationship existed.
We sought the advice of an expert in records issues who is of the opinion that Kenyon Disend’s redaction of police reports was not permissible under the Public Records Act.
Then a source close to ex # 2 ( or # 3 depending on what public records you believe as it relates to Pennington’s aliases) provided us with thousands of records relating to John Pennington, and those records included Pennington’s email communication with Duvall’s Mayor about how to get Pennington’s soon to be ex-wife Anne Laughlin off the City Council.
In 2009, Pennington then used Aaron Reardon’s connection to the Seattle Times reporter ( who then became Reardon’s aide) to post a story about Anne Laughlin, pretty much the same way he did to Gold Bar Reporters in February 2012. Former Seattle Times reporter Emily Heffner was contacted for comment but all she would say is ” you need to move because they are coming after you.” She never did state who “they” were, but as we stated to Ms. Heffner before, “We have only one live to give and it shall be for the betterment of our society as a whole.”
As of today, Attorney Michael Kenyon and Ann Marie Soto have bilked the taxpayers of Gold Bar over $1,350,000.00 hidng former Mayor Crystal Hill’s public records ( emails) documenting that she was practicing law without a license, and had lied on her F 1 form stating that she had never pled guilty to fraud when in fact she had plead guilty twice, one in 2000 in North Carolina and a second time in Snohomish County Washington; and John Pennington making racist comments about President Obama and running illegal ACCESS background checks in violation of RCW 10.97.
Both Penningtons are being sued for gross 1983 and RICO charges with depositions expected to start early next year.
The bigger question that Michael Kenyon refused to answer was what he gained for quashing John Pennington’s criminal charges for beating up his pregnant wife Anne, hiding John Pennington’s racist comments and his illegal background checks.
According to former Mayor Joe Beavers, John Pennington and Aaron Reardon “fixed” cases in Snohomish County Superior Court.
As a result of our six-year investigation, we are confident to report that attorney Michael Kenyon assisted John Pennington is committing felonies. Attorney Michael Kenyon and John Pennington will be sharing a prison cell together and we intend to make that happen even it takes me another 30 years, and I will continue to request access to public records and file suits against any agency that renders assistance to a pedophile and wife beater.
Our request for access to public records regarding this issue has already started. The public, especially Pierce College students, have a legal right to know why Pierce College Board of Trustees would hire a child rapist and wife beater.
What John Pennington was trying to hide for so many years, his prior conviction for criminal harassment ( assault of an ex-fiancé in Oregon) as noted in the following public records as “ prior conviction”
In 2000, John Pennington was George Bush Jr’s campaign manager here in Washington State. Soon after George Bush Jr. was elected ( or stole the election with his brother’s assistance depending what you believe), George Jr. appointed John E Pennington and Michael Browne to positions inside FEMA. Sadly for America, not one FEMA Director was qualified for such positions.
As a result of Michael Browne and John Pennington’s inability to read, write and think effectively caused thousands of minority deaths in Hurricane Katrina.
Hurricane Katrina was an eye opener for those of us who actually earned accredited degrees and whose parents taught us to think critically. George W Bush Jr.’s decision to appoint friends instead of educated and skilled people resulted in massive human loss of life In New Orleans.
Had this story ended in New Orleans, we wouldn’t be exposing John E.Pennington today. But it didn’t, why is simple, because Washington State Senator Jennifer Dunn decided to use her political clout to appoint an uneducated bum to FEMA Region 10 ( Pacific Northwest).
What is even crazier is that George W Bush made an executive appointment without ever running a single background check on John Pennington prior to appointing him.
All that changed when America started calling for Michael Brownie’s head for causing so many deaths in New Orleans. Perhaps Michael Browne might have survived press scrutiny had he not put in his email that was heading to Nordstroms to purchase new clothes for the cameras, while at the same time thousands of African Americans were floating down the street or in lock down inside an unsafe convention center.
African Americans were drowning in the streets of New Orleans, because FEMA Directors lacked basic college skills to handle such a disaster. In the case of Michael Browne, an unaccredited undergraduate degree as well as unaccredited law school diploma. In the case of John Pennington, an online diploma mill degree from an online school the U.S. Dept of Education said sold online diplomas at a flat rate, California Coastal College.
Hurricane Katrina, good bye Brownie, Hello Penny
After Michael Browne and Bernard Kerik made a laughing stock out of the George W and America, George Jr was quoted as saying ‘ Penny will make a great director of FEMA.”This was November 2005. But this time, the feds actually ran an extensive background on John Pennington, and discovered what we learned through years of sifting through public records. John Pennington is a dangerous sociopath with real anger management issues; anger he often takes out on women and children.
I never really thought much of George W Bush Jr. other than he’s a spolied little rich kid who never worked for a living. For the same reason, I couldn’t vote for Al Gore in 2000. Thus, I became one of Ralph Nader’s Raiders in 2000.
Fact is that I probably ran into John Pennington at the Republican National Convention that year in Philadelphia. I, and 1,000,000. Americans blocked the entrance to the Republican National Convention Center preventing many of George Jr’s delegates from accessing the convention center that year.
I was a proud member of Massachusettes ACT UP from UMASS, and had traveled all over the U.S. protesting what I believed to be unequal treatment of economically disadvantaged Americans in favor of corporations. I’m a strong believer that America should place “ people over profits.”
Strangely, I always had respect for George Bush Sr. Why is simple: George Sr is a well educated savey free thinker who listens to his opponents. Unlike his son, George Jr. , who was given a little too much growing up without working for it. Hard work goes along way in molding one’s self esteem.
In 2005, Michael Browne was blamed for the deaths of thousands, because he was appointed to a position that he wasn’t qualified for. So when George Jr. had to make a new appointment to FEMA Director, he looked to a devil wrapping himself with pages of the Bible, while at the same time molesting children and violently assaulting a pregnant woman in her third trimester, John E. Pennington.
For those reporting the news in Washington D.C just after George Bush Jr’s FEMA Directors caused so much misery to so many residents and their survivors in New Orleans, Bush Jr. was quoted as saying ” Penny would make a great Director.”
Because the feds didn’t want George Jr. to go through yet another scathing news story like he did when he chose Kerik to head Homeland Security (who ended up being prime suspect in a murder case and had direct ties to organized crime) and Michael Browne and his fake degrees with extensive skills in horse breeding debacles, any appointment would go through extensive background checks prior to Congressional Hearings.
As a result of the feds extensive background check on John Pennington, he was forced to resign from FEMA or be exposed in a very public way. John Pennington lied about his termination from FEMA stating that he and Tamara Doherty were caught misusing the FEMA credit cards.
This was simply a smoke screen to cover up what we just learned from a federal source over Labor Day Weekend.
John Pennington was terminated from FEMA because the feds learned what we reported on over the last seven years; pedophilia deviant uneducated child abuser who has sick fetish for kids, John Pennington. A sociopath who reminds me of Ted Bundy.
Unfortunately for Oso Washington residents, George W Bush Jr.’s administration thought it was ok to set him loose on Snohomish County residents just so George Jr didn’t have to suffer public press embarassment again.
On March 24, 2014, John Pennington caused 43 residents in Oso Washington to suffocate to death in Washington State’s most preventable loss of life natural disaster. Instead of mitigating loss to human life, John Pennington worked on his fraudulent online diploma, operated his personal business on the County’s dime and while using county resources and staff, violently assaulted children and women, and criminally harassed me right from Snohomish County Offices operating an online blog ” The Sky Valley Chronicle. “ An online blog owned by Aaron Reardon but operated by Gold Bar’s Mayor Crystal Hill ( nee Berg who plead guilty to bank fraud in 2005), John Pennington, and Gold Bar’s former Mayor Joe Beavers.
I believe John Pennington should be charged with negligent homicide for the 43 people he killed in the Oso mudslides.
Since John E. Pennington killed 43 Oso residents in the mudslides, we have searched his travel records and beleive he is responsible for missing children in four different states, and have ample evidence to state John Pennington is the man responsbile for the rape of that five year old child from Colwitz County Washington.
Sadly, John Pennington remains on the loose up here in Snohomis County. So long as John Pennington remains on the loose, I will continue to investigate and report on his criminal sexual deviant conduct.
Protecting Our children from a sociopath like John Pennington is worth every sacrifice we’ve made as a result of shinning much needed sunshine on cockroaches who harm molest and abuse our kids.
Our Children’s mental well being has no price tag. I agree with Hillary Clinton “ it takes a village to raise children.”
John Pennington’s trial in the Oso mudslide debacle will be live streamed by the Gold Bar Reporters starting during the fall of 2016.
As for Pierce College hiring a pedophile and wife beater, one can only say that each and everyone of the persons involved in hiring a known pedophile will now be investigated as a result. Stay tuned, because the way I see it, the only ones who protect pedophiles and wife beaters are ones’ themselves.
Perhaps Pierce College needed to hire someone to teach “ How to get away with molesting and raping our kids, fraud, murder, setting up fake online newspapers to criminally harass citizens, not pay Department of Revenue taxes, failing to pay property taxes, raping college students, and beating one’s spouse” also known as Emergency Management 101 at Pierce College it appears.
Or perhaps it was John Pennington from an online fraudulent program Senator Tom Harkin called fraudulent on PBS’s “ Education, Inc.” or California Coastal School that the IRS said sold online diplomas at a flat rate http://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/local-fema-chief-had-little-disaster-experience/
BEWARE students especially female students as John E. Pennington was kicked out real colleges for raping a student.
In September 2015, Snohomish County Prosecutor Mark Roe confirmed that John Pennington is the man responsible for the rape of a five year old girl in Cowlitz County., Washington. An insider who we have labeled as ” fed up” told the Gold Bar Reporter that Mark Roe was convinced by Snohomish County Prosecutors Sean Reay and Sara DI Vittorio ( being sued for racketeering) to hide Pennington’s criminal history to avoid liability.
John E. Pennington fired, after records reveal criminal racketeering, bribing attorney WA State Bar Hearing Officer Lin O’Dell, and fraud
John E. Pennington is being sued for racketeering and gross 1983 violations after public records released document that he was “bribing” Lin ( aka Linda Worthington) O’Dell Washington State Bar Hearing Officer to fix a case against Gold Bar Reporter.
UPDATE: ATTORNEY LIN O’DELL FOUND GUILTY OF FRAUDING HER CLIENT BY WASHINGTON STATE GURADIAN BOARD
See https://goldbarreporter.org/2016/10/
After receiving a political appointment to Snohomish County Emergency Management, John Pennington killed 43 people in the Oso mudslide disaster. Snohomish County is being sued for millions as result of John Pennington’s criminal activity as outlined herein.
A new lawsuit is being pursued for defamation in Connecticut State court after a Connecticut Bar member called the Gold Bar Reporter stating again that John Pennington contacted them again making the same false statements.

Washington State Bar Racketeering Caught on Camera
On October 4, 2015, we posted the following true story about John Pennington’s “fixer” Washington State Bar Hearing Officer attorney Lin O’Dell. Ms. O’Dell was caught accepting financial bribes from John E. Pennington from April to September 2014.
Since this story was posted ( late 2015), Lin O’Dell has been charged with fraud for stealing from a client ( over 2M dollars) and removed as a hearing officer. Ms. O’Dell’s convicted killer boyfriend Mark Plivilech was caught misusing over ten of Lin O’Dell’s elderly clients social security numbers and criminal fraud complaints have been filed. Mark Plivilech has fled the state of Washington and is now in hiding in the Placentia California area.
In early 2016, Snohomish County Executive Dave Somers notified John E. Pennington that he will be collecting an unemployment check as of January 1, 2016. John E. Pennington was officially terminated from Snohomish County Department of Emergency Management after public records documented that instead of doing his job he criminally harassed his opponents on his anonymous website titled ‘The Sky Valley Chronicle.”
Our readers should know that in 2014, John Pennington was the sole person in charge of mitigation for Oso Washington residents.
As result of Pennington’s criminal activity, Snohomish County currently has 43 Oso mudslide victims and survivors suing the County for millions. Three months ago, a Judge in King County held that the victims can sue Snohomish County, but only for John Pennington’s failure to mitigate loss of human life.
Also, John Pennington’s forth wife Crystal Hill Pennington ( nee Berg, convicted of bank fraud in North Carolina in 2000 and in Snohomish County in 2005) are being sued for Racketeering in US Federal Court with a new Racketeering and a lawsuit just in time for 2017.
For those of you who may not know, John E. Pennington’s criminal background for the last 30 years was searched and investigated by two fantastic investigators.
From FEMA to Snohomish County Washington and now to Pierce College ( Tacoma Washington diploma mill), dark secrets unearthed. Gold Bar Reporters were the first to report on John E. Pennington’s criminal conduct, a small portion of our report is outlined below
MEET JOHN ‘ THEODORE TED BUNDY” PENNINGTON
John Pennington was a troubled youth who, according to one source “had a major drug problem by the age of 16.” So it’s no surprise that in the late 1980’s, after being kicked out of Vanderbilt College in Tennessee after raping a female college student, John Pennington moved to a small suburban city just outside of San Diego California.
While in the San Diego area, John Pennington meets his new victim, who believe he legally married, so are calling her ex-wife # 1, Carla M.
Two years later, John Pennington fled from Southern California, again heading home to Nashville, only after two small boys made allegations of sexual abuse against him while on a church camping trip.
While in Tennessee, John Pennington made an unsuccessful run for an open State Rep. seat. After a landslide loss for Pennington, he again headed west. This time to Oregon where Pennington meets his next victim.
Mr. Pennington plead guilty to criminal assault 1 and harassment ( Washington County Case # D911027SC documents property penalties as a result of his assault) after he hospitalized his fiancé in Oregon. A felony that has somehow vanished, partly, except for the property judgment. **
As a result, John Pennington fled from Oregon to Vancouver Washington. While in Vancouver Washington, John Pennington meets his next victim. Sadly, they soon married.
While working in a coffee delivery business, John Pennington stole coffee grinding equipment from his previous employer and used this equipment to start-up a coffee shop in Kelso. Purpose was to make it look like he was an entrepreneur ( but he is really a sociopath) as to grab an uncontested Republican seat in Cowlitz County.
It worked, the uneducated college dropout John Pennington managed to get elected to an uncontested WA House of Representatives seat. Unfortunately for residents in New Orleans and Oso Washington, he met a powerful Washington State Republican leader, Jennifer Dunn.
In 1992, a 5-year-old girl was kidnapped, raped, and then tossed along a Cowlitz County road like a piece of trash. We sent our private investigators to Cowlitz County to talk with the lead Detective who confirmed the following facts:
John Pennington became one of two prime suspects for the following reasons:
(1) Pennington operated a coffee delivery route within six blocks of where the child was dumped after being raped; (2) he drove the same car; (3) he was in the area at the time of the child rape and could not explain his whereabouts; (4) his picture from 1992 is a complete match to the child and witness sketch drawing of the pedophile; (5) he relentlessly convinced his ex-wife to call the police attempting to divert attention away from himself and onto another man; and ( 6) He has continuous and countless charges of child and spousal abuse, a man who cannot keep his hands to himself.
Below is the press release as it relates to John E. Pennington’s rape of a 5 year old girl from Cowlitz County Washington
Unfortunately for the 5 year child, John Pennington meets a Kelso Washington city attorney named Michael Kenyon.
According to John Pennington’s divorce files he is also an abuser of prescription pills, and was detained at the US Mexico for having narcotics ( non-prescription pain pills) on his person while coming back into the US. Pennington has never denied this allegation.
In 1995, John Pennington was also a member of the Washington State Militia, a group dedicated to over throwing the United States government. ” John sat around for years obsessed about getting even with the Longview Washington news reporter for reporting that John was a member of the State militia.”
From 1992 to 2005, John Pennington’s violence grew with his ex-wife. # 2, Valerie. From pushing her down a flight of stairs as well as constant physical harassment, John Pennington never learned to keep his hands to himself.
But the case that raised our eyebrows is Mr. Pennington’s abuse on his ex-wife # 2 ( who is really ex-wife # 3) Anne Laughlin. Ms. Laughlin was a City of Duvall city council member at the time of Pennington’s assault of Anne. Anne was three weeks away from giving birth to her daughter when Pennington violently assaulted, kicked and punched Anne in the stomach and uterus. A real salt of the earth kind of man.
Since Ms. Laughlin was a Duvall city council member at the time, the City of Duvall sought a Special Prosecutor. The prosecutor assigned to prosecute wife beater John Pennington came from the law firm where Pennington’s buddy Michael Kenyon was employed.
In 2009 when Pennington assaulted Laughlin, this was his third domestic violence charge. This should have amounted to jail time for Pennington.
A close review of John Pennington’s Snohomish County travel records warrant a closer look into missing children in Washington, Alaska, Maryland. Public monies allowed us to review his credit card receipts, telephone records, etc. information that another blogger turned over to authorities.
Any grown man that takes a shower with a six year old little girl is a pedophile.
In 2011, Kenyon Disend’s junior attorney, Ann Marie Soto, received an email from John Pennington via Snohomish County computers demanding that Kenyon Disend redact police reports involving John Pennington criminal harassment and assault that we requested under RCW 42.56. There’s only one problem, at the time Pennington was communicating with Kenyon Disend’s attorney, he was not a City of Duvall employee thus no attorney client relationship existed.
We sought the advice of an expert in records issues who is of the opinion that Kenyon Disend’s redaction of police reports was not permissible under the Public Records Act.
Then a source close to ex # 2 ( or # 3 depending on what public records you believe as it relates to Pennington’s aliases) provided us with thousands of records relating to John Pennington, and those records included Pennington’s email communication with Duvall’s Mayor about how to get Pennington’s soon to be ex-wife Anne Laughlin off the City Council.
In 2009, Pennington then used Aaron Reardon’s connection to the Seattle Times reporter ( who then became Reardon’s aide) to post a story about Anne Laughlin, pretty much the same way he did to Gold Bar Reporters in February 2012. Former Seattle Times reporter Emily Heffner was contacted for comment but all she would say is ” you need to move because they are coming after you.” She never did state who “they” were, but as we stated to Ms. Heffner before, “We have only one live to give and it shall be for the betterment of our society as a whole.”
As of today, Attorney Michael Kenyon and Ann Marie Soto have bilked the taxpayers of Gold Bar over $1,350,000.00 hidng former Mayor Crystal Hill’s public records ( emails) documenting that she was practicing law without a license, and had lied on her F 1 form stating that she had never pled guilty to fraud when in fact she had plead guilty twice, one in 2000 in North Carolina and a second time in Snohomish County Washington; and John Pennington making racist comments about President Obama and running illegal ACCESS background checks in violation of RCW 10.97.
Both Penningtons are being sued for gross 1983 and RICO charges with depositions expected to start early next year.
The bigger question that Michael Kenyon refused to answer was what he gained for quashing John Pennington’s criminal charges for beating up his pregnant wife Anne, hiding John Pennington’s racist comments and his illegal background checks.
According to former Mayor Joe Beavers, John Pennington and Aaron Reardon “fixed” cases in Snohomish County Superior Court.
As a result of our six-year investigation, we are confident to report that attorney Michael Kenyon assisted John Pennington is committing felonies. Attorney Michael Kenyon and John Pennington will be sharing a prison cell together and we intend to make that happen even it takes me another 30 years, and I will continue to request access to public records and file suits against any agency that renders assistance to a pedophile and wife beater.
Our request for access to public records regarding this issue has already started. The public, especially Pierce College students, have a legal right to know why Pierce College Board of Trustees would hire a child rapist and wife beater.
What John Pennington was trying to hide for so many years, his prior conviction for criminal harassment ( assault of an ex-fiancé in Oregon) as noted in the following public records as “ prior conviction”
In 2000, John Pennington was George Bush Jr’s campaign manager here in Washington State. Soon after George Bush Jr. was elected ( or stole the election with his brother’s assistance depending what you believe), George Jr. appointed John E Pennington and Michael Browne to positions inside FEMA. Sadly for America, not one FEMA Director was qualified for such positions.
As a result of Michael Browne and John Pennington’s inability to read, write and think effectively caused thousands of minority deaths in Hurricane Katrina.
Hurricane Katrina was an eye opener for those of us who actually earned accredited degrees and whose parents taught us to think critically. George W Bush Jr.’s decision to appoint friends instead of educated and skilled people resulted in massive human loss of life In New Orleans.
Had this story ended in New Orleans, we wouldn’t be exposing John E.Pennington today. But it didn’t, why is simple, because Washington State Senator Jennifer Dunn decided to use her political clout to appoint an uneducated bum to FEMA Region 10 ( Pacific Northwest).
What is even crazier is that George W Bush made an executive appointment without ever running a single background check on John Pennington prior to appointing him.
All that changed when America started calling for Michael Brownie’s head for causing so many deaths in New Orleans. Perhaps Michael Browne might have survived press scrutiny had he not put in his email that was heading to Nordstroms to purchase new clothes for the cameras, while at the same time thousands of African Americans were floating down the street or in lock down inside an unsafe convention center.
African Americans were drowning in the streets of New Orleans, because FEMA Directors lacked basic college skills to handle such a disaster. In the case of Michael Browne, an unaccredited undergraduate degree as well as unaccredited law school diploma. In the case of John Pennington, an online diploma mill degree from an online school the U.S. Dept of Education said sold online diplomas at a flat rate, California Coastal College.
Hurricane Katrina, good bye Brownie, Hello Penny
After Michael Browne and Bernard Kerik made a laughing stock out of the George W and America, George Jr was quoted as saying ‘ Penny will make a great director of FEMA.”This was November 2005. But this time, the feds actually ran an extensive background on John Pennington, and discovered what we learned through years of sifting through public records. John Pennington is a dangerous sociopath with real anger management issues; anger he often takes out on women and children.
I never really thought much of George W Bush Jr. other than he’s a spolied little rich kid who never worked for a living. For the same reason, I couldn’t vote for Al Gore in 2000. Thus, I became one of Ralph Nader’s Raiders in 2000.
Fact is that I probably ran into John Pennington at the Republican National Convention that year in Philadelphia. I, and 1,000,000. Americans blocked the entrance to the Republican National Convention Center preventing many of George Jr’s delegates from accessing the convention center that year.
I was a proud member of Massachusettes ACT UP from UMASS, and had traveled all over the U.S. protesting what I believed to be unequal treatment of economically disadvantaged Americans in favor of corporations. I’m a strong believer that America should place “ people over profits.”
Strangely, I always had respect for George Bush Sr. Why is simple: George Sr is a well educated savey free thinker who listens to his opponents. Unlike his son, George Jr. , who was given a little too much growing up without working for it. Hard work goes along way in molding one’s self esteem.
In 2005, Michael Browne was blamed for the deaths of thousands, because he was appointed to a position that he wasn’t qualified for. So when George Jr. had to make a new appointment to FEMA Director, he looked to a devil wrapping himself with pages of the Bible, while at the same time molesting children and violently assaulting a pregnant woman in her third trimester, John E. Pennington.
For those reporting the news in Washington D.C just after George Bush Jr’s FEMA Directors caused so much misery to so many residents and their survivors in New Orleans, Bush Jr. was quoted as saying ” Penny would make a great Director.”
Because the feds didn’t want George Jr. to go through yet another scathing news story like he did when he chose Kerik to head Homeland Security (who ended up being prime suspect in a murder case and had direct ties to organized crime) and Michael Browne and his fake degrees with extensive skills in horse breeding debacles, any appointment would go through extensive background checks prior to Congressional Hearings.
As a result of the feds extensive background check on John Pennington, he was forced to resign from FEMA or be exposed in a very public way. John Pennington lied about his termination from FEMA stating that he and Tamara Doherty were caught misusing the FEMA credit cards.
This was simply a smoke screen to cover up what we just learned from a federal source over Labor Day Weekend.
John Pennington was terminated from FEMA because the feds learned what we reported on over the last seven years; pedophilia deviant uneducated child abuser who has sick fetish for kids, John Pennington. A sociopath who reminds me of Ted Bundy.
Unfortunately for Oso Washington residents, George W Bush Jr.’s administration thought it was ok to set him loose on Snohomish County residents just so George Jr didn’t have to suffer public press embarassment again.
On March 24, 2014, John Pennington caused 43 residents in Oso Washington to suffocate to death in Washington State’s most preventable loss of life natural disaster. Instead of mitigating loss to human life, John Pennington worked on his fraudulent online diploma, operated his personal business on the County’s dime and while using county resources and staff, violently assaulted children and women, and criminally harassed me right from Snohomish County Offices operating an online blog ” The Sky Valley Chronicle. “ An online blog owned by Aaron Reardon but operated by Gold Bar’s Mayor Crystal Hill ( nee Berg who plead guilty to bank fraud in 2005), John Pennington, and Gold Bar’s former Mayor Joe Beavers.
I believe John Pennington should be charged with negligent homicide for the 43 people he killed in the Oso mudslides.
Since John E. Pennington killed 43 Oso residents in the mudslides, we have searched his travel records and beleive he is responsible for missing children in four different states, and have ample evidence to state John Pennington is the man responsbile for the rape of that five year old child from Colwitz County Washington.
Sadly, John Pennington remains on the loose up here in Snohomis County. So long as John Pennington remains on the loose, I will continue to investigate and report on his criminal sexual deviant conduct.
Protecting Our children from a sociopath like John Pennington is worth every sacrifice we’ve made as a result of shinning much needed sunshine on cockroaches who harm molest and abuse our kids.
Our Children’s mental well being has no price tag. I agree with Hillary Clinton “ it takes a village to raise children.”
“ As the receiver of this message, you may not like my message, but nonetheless such messages are protected by the First Amendment, under RCW 4.24.510, and by ORDER of the U.S. Supreme Court. See City of Houston v. Hill, 482 U.S. 451 (1987). “
“Attorney Michael Kenyon’s Dirty Bag of Secrets, Part II “
UPDATE: Former Mayor Joe Beavers brags to former Gold Bar council member that he has Judges inside Snohomish County Superior Court in his pocket. Implying that the fix is in.
Two weeks ago we reported that we are in the process of exposing the largest RICO scandal in Washington State’s history and it involves a Snohomish County political bum who caused thousands of deaths in the Hurricane Katrina Debacle and 44 deaths in Oso Washington mudslides, John Pennington, and an attorney/owner of the largest municipal law firm in Washington State, Michael Kenyon.
I’d like our readers to know that we have made several attempts to contact Michael Kenyon and John Pennington, both have refused comment.
MEET JOHN ‘ THEODORE TED BUNDY” PENNINGTON
John Pennington was a troubled youth who, according to one source ” had a major drug problem by the age of 16.” So it’s no surprise that in the late 1980’s, after flunking out of Vanderbilt College in Tennessee, John Pennington moved to a small suburban city just outside of San Diego California.

It worked, the uneducated college dropout John Pennington managed to get elected to an uncontested WA House of Representatives seat. Unfortunately for residents in New Orleans and Oso Washington, he met a powerful Washington State Republican leader, Jennifer Dunn.
In 1992, a 5-year-old girl was kidnapped, raped, and then tossed along a Cowlitz County road like a piece of trash. According to Cowlitz County Sheriff’s Office, John Pennington became one of two prime suspects for the following reasons: (1) Pennington operated a coffee delivery route within six blocks of where the child was dumped; (2) he drove the same car; (3) Pennington was in the area at the time of the child rape; (4) Pennington’s picture from 1992 is almost a complete match to the child and witness’s sketch drawing of the pedophile; and (5) Pennington relentlessly convinced his ex-wife to call the police attempting to divert attention away from himself and onto another man.
Unfortunately for the 5 year child, John Pennington meets a Kelso Washington city attorney named Michael Kenyon.
According to sources close to John Pennington he is also an abuser of prescription pills, and was detained at the US Mexico for having narcotics ( non-prescription pain pills) on his person while coming back into the US. Pennington has never denied this allegation.
In 1995, John Pennington was also a member of the Washington State Militia, a group dedicated to over throwing the United States government. ” John sat around for years obsessed about getting even with the Longview Washington news reporter for reporting that John was a member of the State militia.”
From 1992 to 2005, John Pennington’s violence grew with his ex-wife. # 2 . From pushing her down a flight of stairs as well as constant physical abuse, Pennington never learned to keep his hands to himself.
But the case that raised our eyebrows is Mr. Pennington’s abuse on his ex-wife # 2 ( who is really ex-wife # 3) Anne Laughlin.

A close review of John Pennington’s Snohomish County travel records warrant a closer look into missing children in Washington, Alaska, Maryland. Public monies allowed us to review his credit card receipts, telephone records, etc. information that another blogger turned over to authorities.
NOW COMES, Michael Kenyon a hater of open government, and the attorney responsible for hiding public records involving former Gold Bar Mayors Colleen Hawkins, Crystal Hill, and Joe Beavers RICO crimes. But how and why Michael Kenyon got involved in the City of Gold Bar’s debacle was simple: Michael Kenyon assisted John Pennington is covering up that Pennington is one of only two men labeled by the Cowlitz County sheriff’s Office as the prime suspect in the child rape case. A case that Michael Kenyon as the City of Kelso attorney would have been involved in and knew about in 1993.
Hence why Michael Kenyon is bent over backwards to assist John Pennington escape criminal prosecution. according to one source John Pennington brags to others that he has the protection of a “little RICO” gang from Snohomish County. We are confident to report that attorney Michael Kenyon, Prosecutor Mark Roe, Seth Fine and Sean Reay are also members of the “little RICO gang.”
We promise our readers that we will continue to report on anyone who aids a pedophile, directly or indirectly.
Michael Kenyon’s hiding of public records in violation of RCW 42.56 is well documented through the case involving local Gold Bar residents Joan and Robert Amen.
Public records we received document that attorney Michael Kenyon made an illegal agreement with the City of Sammamish to hide Hawkins email communication, and then refused to release public records claiming that he no longer had them. According to Washington State Attorney General Nancy Krier such agreements are not permissible under the Public Records Act. A fact that we are not sure that she shared with Kenyon. In 2008 one of Kenyon Disend’s lawyers ( Special Prosecutor) managed to quash John Pennington’s domestic violence charges. Soon thereafter, the Law Firm of Kenyon Disend received two lucrative contracts, one with the City of Duvall and the other with the City of Gold Bar.
Then in 2011, Kenyon Disend’s junior attorney, Ann Marie Soto, received an email from John Pennington via Snohomish County computers demanding that Kenyon Disend redact police reports involving John Pennington’s that we requested under RCW 42.56. We sought the advice of an expert in records issues who is of the opinion that Kenyon Disend’s redaction of police reports was not permissible under the Public Records Act.
Then a source close to ex # 2 ( or # 3 depending on what public records you believe as it relates to Pennington’s aliases) provided us with thousands of records relating to John Pennington, and those records included Pennington’s email communication with Duvall’s Mayor about how to get Pennington’s soon to be ex-wife Anne Laughlin off the City Council.
In 2009, Pennington then used Aaron Reardon’s connection to the Seattle Times reporter ( who then became Reardon’s aide) to post a story about Anne Laughlin, pretty much the same way he did to Gold Bar Reporters in February 2012. Former Seattle Times reporter Emily Heffner was contacted for comment but all she would say is ” you need to move because they are coming after you.” She never did state who “they” were, but as we stated to Ms. Heffner before, “We have only one live to give and it shall be for the betterment of our society as a whole.”
As of today, Attorney Michael Kenyon and Ann Marie Soto have bilked the taxpayers of Gold Bar over $920,000.00 hiding former Mayor Crystal Hill’s public records ( emails) documenting that she was practicing law without a license, and John Pennington making racist comments about President Obama and running illegal ACCESS background checks in violation of RCW 10.97.
The bigger question that Michael Kenyon refused to answer was what he gained for quashing John Pennington’s criminal charges for beating up his pregnant wife Anne, hiding John Pennington’s racist comments and his illegal background checks. Pennington has countless child abuse and spousal abuse complaints against him; Mr. Pennington is a racist according to people close to him he said ” I only support abortion when a white woman is raped by a black man” Just like Hitler, John E. Pennington has a real disdain for minorities
As a result of our six-year investigation, we are confident to report that attorney Michael Kenyon assisted John Pennington is committing felonies. Attorney Michael Kenyon and John Pennington should be sharing a prison cell together and we intend to make that happen even it takes me another 30 years.
Both attorney Michael Kenyon and Snohomish County’s number political welfare recipient are being sued under RICO.

Another corrupt cop EXPOSED by the Gold Bar Reporters.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________
On March 19, 2015, child abuser and bank fraudster Crystal Hill Pennington ( who changed her name from Berg to Hill in 2005 to cover up her criminal bank fraud), and her pedophile husband John E. Pennington ( man who caused the deaths of 43 people to suffocate to death in Oso Washington’s mudslides ), attempted to obtain a prior restraint on free speech.
On March 19, 2015, King County Judge Meyers rejected their complaint as being ” unconstitutional” and Gold Bar Reporters informed Mark Roe on the same day.
Perhaps a little less criminal conduct and a few more college classes might help Crystal Hill. Crystal Hill Pennington dropped out of Everett Community College after she became pregnant and her boyfriend abandoned her in senior year of high school.
Public records we obtained from the City of Gold Bar and Snohomish County Department of Emergency Management, documents that she was practicing law without a license at the same time she was passing bad checks up here in Gold Bar, Washington.
Email records given to us by former Mayor Joe Beavers also documents that Snohomish County Dept of Emergency Management John E. Pennington is a racist who was passing derogatory comments via Snohomish County computers about President Obama.
John E. Pennington recently admitted in a public post ” My LIfe” that he was a racist but claims that he changed once Executive John Lovick ( a African American) became his boss.
We correctly titled John Pennington a ” convenient racist!” who was quoted as saying ” I oppose abortion unless A white woman is raped by a black man.”
Corrupt Snohomish County Prosecutor Mark Roe, will be Recalled after WA Supreme Court sets precedent with Pierce County Prosecutor Mark Lindquist
An insider from Snohomish County, who we call “Fed Up” also said ” Mark Roe has misappropriated over $5.5 million dollars hiding his RICO violations of quashing criminal charges against Karl Marjerle for sabotaging the City’s water system, and Mark Roe’s quashing child abuse and criminal assault charges against John E. Pennington and Crystal Hill Pennington (nee Berg).
According to Gold Bar resident Joe Beavers ” Marjerle’s water license was stripped as a result.”
See http://goldbarreporter.org/2015/04/13/1368/
” Mark Roe spends most of his day conspiring with Sean Reay and John Pennington trying to get you charged with a crime.” Fed Up told the Gold Bar Reporters.
Yesterday, Fed Up told us ” I believe Mark Roe’s conduct is no less than Mark Lindquist’s conduct, malicious.” We believe Fed Up is right, and are awaiting the WA Supreme Court’s decision on Lindquist to file a Recall Petition against Mark Roe, only after we found more emails from Snohomish County documenting that even after Mark Roe knew that two King County Judges and three King County Prosecutors stated that the Gold Bar Reporters news reporting style was protected free speech and does not amount to criminal conduct.
Fed Up also told us “Crystal Hill, Sean Reay, John E. Pennington and Crystal Hill Pennington met on June 25, 2015, filing the same exact false documents that Crystal Hill Pennington, John Pennington and his very very very close friend and Duvall police officer Lori Batiot filed in King County rejected by two King County Judges, that Mark Roe had declarations proving that Crystal Hill Pennington is GUILTY of perjury.”
Further, Crystal Hill Pennington files the complaint in Gold Bar, stating the City of Duvall declined. The bigger question is what makes Crystal Hill Pennington think that she’s entitled to forum shop when not one of the alleged protected activity ( warning Duvall residents that John E. Pennington is pedophile working around children, which we have an absolute right to inform the public of) that bank fraudster and child abuser Crystal Hill Pennington and John E Pennington could be filed in Gold Bar?
Fed up said ” Mark Roe and Sean Reay are dumber than door knobs.” We don’t disagree.
Fact is, not one single allegation in Crystal Hill Pennington’s complaint occurred in Snohomish County. But emails from RICO Master and Snohomish County Prosecutor Mark Roe documents that Crystal Hill Pennington had a direct line to Mark Roe’s office. Wonder why? This shit is getting too juicy!
One source claims that ” Crystal Hill was being passed around like a door mat…” Gold Bar’s former Mayor Joe Beavers screamed three times in executive session ” Crystal Hill is a whore!” While another 2009 Gold Bar council member said she was passing nude pictures on a Blackberry device of herself to various married men. He also stated ” Crystal was a party girl” implying she was being passed around.
From 2007 to 2015, Crystal Hill Pennington, John E Pennington and former Gold Bar Mayor Joe Bevaers had unfettered access to post on Aaron Reardon’s Sky Valley Chronicle. In 2012, John and Crystal Hill Pennington posted a threat to harm Gold Bar Reporter and her partner. Public records released from Snohomish County Prosecutor’s Office and the City of Gold Bar documents that Reardon’s agent Ron Fejfar ( Sulten) gave access code to Beavers to post articles, and public records from Snohomish County revealed that John And Crystal Hill Pennington had possession of article before the articles even appeared on the Chronicle. In one article, John Pennington while serving as a FEMA EMI instructor posted a veiled threat to physically harm Block and her partner. But when a RICO suit was filed against Beavers, Hill and Pennington, they ceased all criminal activity on the Sky Valley Chronicle.
This issue brings us to John Pennington’s little extortion scandal at the Echo Lake Resort, but ‘we’ll hold off posting our findings about the Big Bang Theory for a future date. But for those of you who like Sex.com, you might Search those 2008-2009 archives.
A criminal complaint has been filed against Crystal Hill Pennington after she submitted an intentionally false police report stating that several email addresses and Twitter accounts were mine, and that she could not find work as a result of our news investigation of her criminal conduct.
FEMA confirmed that weeks before and weeks after Crystal Hill filed a false criminal complaint she secured fraudulently ( pleading guilty to bank fraud makes a person ineligible for any federal contracts) over 20,000 worth of federal contracts.
Since Crystal Hill Pennington sat with her friend and RICO Enterprise member Lori Batoit in Court on Jun e19, 2015, when A King County judge tossed Lori Batiot’s criminal complaint ( and our lawyer stated on the record that Crystal Hill Pennington, John Pennington, and former Mayor Joe Beavers were present) amounts to a new predicate acts under RICO with a new RICO suit coming soon.
In the meantime, We are writing a Recall against Mark Roe for entertaining Crystal Hill Pennington’s criminal complaints ( amounting to perjury) after two King County Judges and three King Prosecutors already rejected the criminal complaints five times in the last three months at the lowest civil standard.
Unfortuantely for Snohomish County taxpayers, Mark Roe and Sean Reay must have failed constitutional and criminal law because criminal complaints have the highest standard of proof “beyond a reasonable doubt.”
Since two King County Judges and three King County Prosecutors already said Crystal Hill Pennington’s criminal and perjurous complaints were ” unfounded, DISMISSED” at the lowest standard, our counsel is of the opinion that Mark Roe’s conduct is “malicious.”
Once Mark Lindquist’s Recall comes back ” stamped ok” by the WA State Supreme Court, Gold Bar Reporter Anne Block will use case law to secure corrupt Snohomish County Prosecutor Mark Roe’s Recall up here in Snohomish County.
The taxpayers have right to a clean and honest government by and for the people, not ye the few – and I intend to make that happen, soon.
