* STANDING UP TO TRUMP!
Posted on August 16th, 2018 4 comments
According to Richard Musser today by voicemail – his auntie who is an attorney and called me at 10:44 pm last night (I hung up on her) is coming after me! Oh, no! I’m packing my bags and preparing to leave town – not!
Actually, I’m just taking the afternoon off! LIP News will be back tomorrow.BLATANT RACISM!
* I hope the LNP Editorial Board warned the Millersville University President about the blatant racism he and his family will face in Lancaster (oh, and in the LNP offices too!).

AFTERNOON UPDATE * RICHARD MUSSER…
Posted on August 15th, 2018 17 commentsDON’T TRY IT HERE!
I’ll say it one last time: There are billions of websites on the world-wide web. If you don’t like this one, don’t come here. I’ve been doing this for 14 years: I know crazy and I know stalkers all too well. Don’t try it here!
Tomorrow – back to the “real” news!* The first time I wrote about Richard Musser was in December of last year and it is below and the original is here.
There have been three phone calls this afternoon. Do not threaten me again! There are literally billions of websites on the world-wide web. If you don’t like this one – then don’t come here.
******
CEASE & DESIST!
From left to right – Muraro, Musser and Gillhoolley.
I would like to thank LNP President Caroline Muraro and Social Media Manager Andrea Gillhoolley for allowing the below comment from my obsessed and violent stalker, Richard Musser, to stay up on Lancaster Online for three weeks. It breaks every one of your commenting guidelines.
It is posted under the “article” by Muraro, “LancasterOnline launches digital subscription service: A message from LNP’s president,” (click here).
I have an idea, Caroline – since you need money so badly maybe you could fire all of your attorneys and hire Musser as your legal consultant! Actually, if you are worried about a woman in Philadelphia typing on a laptop with your 80 plus editorial staff in your multi-million dollar building then you have bigger problems than even Richard Musser can solve!
I’m still waiting for that “cease & desist letter,” Caroline, but Musser will certainly be getting one from me.

*** – ** – * CORRUPTION IN THE LANCASTER JUSTICE SYSTEM!
Posted on August 14th, 2018 2 commentsDISHING IT OUT?
*** You talk about corruption in the county police departments and the Lancaster District Attorney’s Office and suddenly they get busy trying to impress the public with all the work they are allegedly doing:
— The Lancaster City Police suddenly put out video of an armed robbery from June 16th looking for help to identify the two robbers! What was the almost two month delay? Who knows and no one asks! (You can watch the video on the police YouTube channel – click here.)
— And District Attorney Craig Stedman announced an arrest and murder charges lodged in the death of a baby on July 16th. What was the almost one month delay? Her boyfriend has an alibi; she was home alone with the baby and the coroner ruled the death “a homicide caused by strangulation and suffocation” according to the DA’s press release.
Yes, I know, they had to “investigate” – apparently to find out about those dishes! From the DA’s press release (click here):
Parrow told police that she put the child down to sleep, went to another room to do dishes and returned, about 10 minutes later, to find the child unresponsive.
An investigation revealed Parrow did not wash dishes – there were few dishes at the home and those found were dirty.
So, I’ll ask DA Stedman again: How many murder charges do you have waiting in your back pocket to counter any “bad” press?******
VERY SICK?
** This comment is posted under the article about Candace Parrow being charged with the murder of her four-month-old baby on Lancaster Online.
Parrow is obviously mentally ill and people want to know the circumstances of her other baby’s death in New York state. What happened to D’Yante Gillette? How did he die?* Your murder charges against Candace Parrow (see the post below) are not going to make me forget about this from yesterday, DA Stedman! How many other murder charges are you holding in your back pocket?
JUDGE OR JAIL?

* DECEPTIVE, TERRIBLE REPORTING!
Posted on August 11th, 2018 1 comment* A GoFundMe page has been established for Blake Shearer (click here).
*******
RAPING THE PUBLIC!
I made an extra strong cup of coffee and sat down this morning determined to understand LNP’s article, “How many untested rape kits are there in Lancaster County?” (click here).
I read the article quickly once and my immediate response was, “huh?” I determined I needed to fully understand what this article was stating so I took my coffee and despite the terrible graphics I concentrated on every sentence.
My conclusion – reporter Lindsey Blest is playing games and never answers the initial question. From the article:
Blest never tells us if the 28 backlogged kits from 2016 have been tested! Never! 
And in her chart, for Lancaster City alone there were 15 that “Baseline inventory of sexual assault kits not yet submitted for testing on September 7, 2015″ and 14 that were “Number of sexual assault evidence kits awaiting testing.”
She never states if those have been tested – if the backlog has been cleared! She states, “there were no backlogged rape kits in Lancaster County in 2017” which is great for 2017 but she never answers about the backlogged kits from previous years.
This is terrible and deceptive reporting and writing! -
AFTERNOON UPDATE – *** BREAKING NEWS *** WILL LNP HOLD ANYONE ACCOUNTABLE?
Posted on August 10th, 2018 7 commentsA WHOLE
LOT OF EXPLAINING!
Lancaster City Police Chief Jarrad Berkihiser and District Attorney Craig Stedman have a whole lot of explaining to do! They charged Justin Perry with two heinous felonies and then quietly withdrew the charges after the damage in the media had already been done. Unbelievable! There will be more tomorrow.
******
*** According to Chris in District Judge Bruce Roth’s office this afternoon, Lancaster Detective Lt. Philip Berkihiser withdrew the charges against Perry this morning. She said any other information regarding his case would have to come from the police.
** Justin Perry needs to get an attorney and have that docket entry removed! He also needs the attorney to get an explanation of why he was charged in the first place and if the police don’t have a good answer, sue the heck out of them and also get his attorney’s fees paid back by the police.
The police may not like his being what they call a “vigilante,” but they can’t just make up charges! Outrageous! These police are out of control!*** BREAKING NEWS ***
CHARGES WITHDRAWN!
* The two felonies charged against Justin Perry (MR 17 5 40) were withdrawn this morning before District Judge Bruce Roth according to his docket (see below and click here for the LNP article, “Man captured in Facebook video being accused of soliciting sex from ‘girl’ charged”).
So why was he charged in the first place? To scare him? You can’t do that!

When you go to the “LanCity Connect” Facebook page a chat box comes up and they state they will reply “instantly!” And as you can see in the below – they did – with an auto response and I have not heard back from them since.
I am trying to contact/speak with Favyan Asia so that I can be fair and get his side of the story. As you can see from the info box on his personal Facebook page below he states he is the “Lead Network Engineer at MAW Communications.” He also manages the LanCity Connect and the MAW Communications Facebook pages along with two others.
And this guy is local and knows people. I’ve seen former mayoral candidate Tony Dastra comment on Asia’s page and I’ve seen Asia comment on Councilwoman Janet Diaz’s Facebook page.

Posted on August 7th, 2018 6 comments“RELENTLESS INDEPENDENT
INVESTIGATIVE REPORTING”
Wow! Married elected officials pushing to be in control of our tax dollars. Sounds like the fox guarding the hen house.A comment posted on Lancaster Online under the story, “State Sen. Scott Martin, county treasurer Amber Martin, push tax collector bill in Harrisburg hearing,” (click here).So, LNP and Caucus editor, Tom Murse, did you check the bonds your office received for Lancaster County Treasurer Amber Martin? Did you?You see, when she was elected treasurer her name was Amber Green. Remember that, Tom? So shouldn’t there be a bond in the name of “Amber Green?”Maybe your new and recent college graduate reporter, Carter Walker, who received the bonds and wrote the story, “Lancaster County treasurer secures insurance to collect municipal taxes,” doesn’t know (click here)!Why wouldn’t he know, Tom? Because you never told the public that State Senator Scott Martin married Lancaster County Treasurer Amber Green after both got divorces (Scott secretly for the second time) and she took his name and became Amber Martin!It gets messy when you withhold information from the public, doesn’t it, Tom? Your own reporters might not know important facts like there should be a bond in the name of Amber Green!Are you going to do some relentless independent investigative reporting to find out why there is a missing bond, Tom, and tell the public why they are not protected?To be continued: Why didn’t Tom tell the public about Scott and Amber?*********
NEWS OR AD?
Two decades ago, developers asked to invest in downtown Lancaster might have replied, “Why should I?”
Today the answer is more likely to be, “Why not?”
Thanks largely to hundreds of millions of dollars of investment in the past dozen or so years, center city has been transformed from an ailing area to an appealing one.

AFTERNOON UPDATE – HOW MUCH DOES MARTIN COLLECT?
Posted on August 6th, 2018 6 commentsRACISM CONTINUES! – 2
…“We want to create a department that looks more like the community we serve,” Berkihiser said.… Just nine of the 136 officers live within city limits.From the June 6, 2018 LNP article, “Lancaster city police, seeking diverse recruits, step up outreach efforts,” (click here).They have been saying that for years and yet, over and over again, we have the below from August 3rd on this site (click here for the original)! Who will call these liars out? There will be much more tomorrow.
************ I forgot to include that Perry tells Blas that he is currently on probation so the fact that no bail has been set on the new charges and he is free is even stranger!
ANOTHER VIGILANTE!
** “Team Loyalty,” Tony Blas, was on Good Morning America this morning and you can watch his segment here. He does exactly what Justin Perry does and the reason I bring this up, besides the coincidence, is that Blas had a live Facebook feed yesterday and at about 20 minutes in he talks with Perry and Perry says his phone was “clean” when he gave it to Lancaster Detectives.
Again, Perry has been charged with two felonies including having child pornography on his phone and yet bail has not been set and he is currently free.
The live Facebook feed with Blas and Perry is here. Please note there is explicit and vulgar language.* In the strange and never ending saga of $60 million missing dollars, Christine C. Shubert, in her capacity as Chapter 7 Trustee for Worley & Obetz, Inc., filed a “lis pendens” action against the owners of 10 properties in the Lancaster County Court of Common Pleas on August 3rd (see below the property list).
That means they want the turnover of the properties to the bankruptcy estate.
The properties are:
— 211 S. Charlotte St., Manheim
— 55 Doe Run Rd., Manheim
— 1075 White Oak Rd., Manheim
— 35 Doe Run Rd., Manheim
— 535 Stiegel Valley Rd., Manheim
— 202 Greenfield Rd., Lancaster
— 149 Doe Run Rd., Manheim
— 45 Doe Run Rd., Manheim
— 62 Doe Run Rd., Manheim
— 41 Doe Run Rd., Manheim

IS IT ENOUGH & NAMES!
…In response to a Right-to-Know request, LNP received a copy of two bonds in Martin’s name issued July 18.
One was for $500,000 and covered Jan. 4, 2016, through June 30, 2018. The second was for $1 million and covers July 1 of this year through Jan. 3 of 2020, which would be the end of Martin’s first term.
From today’s LNP story, “Lancaster County treasurer secures insurance to collect municipal taxes,” (click here).
Yes, I received the bonds on Friday as well. The first page of the two bonds are below. Question: Is $500,000 and $1 million enough? And there’s another major problem: Martin didn’t marry State Senator Scott Martin until March 10, 2017. Shouldn’t there also be a bond in the name of Amber Green?

A BREAK IN CITY COUNCIL!
Posted on August 5th, 2018 No commentsHE’S A CRIMINAL!
Today’s LNP editorial is titled, “Backing civil statute of limitations reform would be the best way bishops could help child sexual abuse victims,” (click here).
I encountered and was defeated by the statute of limitations when I sued my parents years ago. And I wrote about it (click here and most of the legal documents are on the original LIP News site).
I don’t go back to the incest story often – but in looking this morning for the statute of limitations piece this was also there. This simply amazes me every time I read it!*********
For instance, Plaintiff’s father, who is an anthropologist, was occasionally out of the country during her childhood. It is important for him to know when the alleged events took place so that he can ascertain his own whereabouts at the time Plaintiff contends he was at home in Lancaster engaging in child abuse.
(From the Brief of Appellees filed with the Superior Court on January 6, 2005.)
I sent this letter to a friend regarding the above: “What a howl! I guess 365 days a year for 18 years wasn’t enough time. And it wasn’t child abuse it was sexual abuse/incest. My father may have been out of the country once before I was 18. He went to Africa for several weeks to visit my brother who was living there. That is the only time I remember him being out of the country let alone out of the state! The anthropologist part is ironic on so many levels. I gather anthropologists don’t molest their children and occasionally travel out of the country. My father sat in a chair and drank beer and said, ‘Men are the hunters and gatherers.’ They are grasping at straws on this one.”
Perhaps my father should look up the definition of anthropologist. They study cultures and families. Apparently he doesn’t think it odd that his one son is a pedophile who molested his other 13 year-old son and his foster son. Apparently he doesn’t think it odd that two of his daughters, both in their fifties, have never married and rarely dated. Apparently he doesn’t think it odd that I have to worry that my own brother may have molested my son. He’s not an anthropologist; he’s a criminal.*******

* SEARCHING FOR THE TRUTH
Posted on August 4th, 2018 13 comments* Wise made sexual remarks and solicitations to the undercover adult and sent at least one lewd photo, according to charging documents. Wise attempted to meet the undercover adult at the park, according to the district attorney’s office.
Perry said he did not share the video with police but “knew they saw it through Facebook.”
From the LNP article.
This makes absolutely no sense. In order to prosecute Wise for five felonies and other charges, the DA’s office has to have all the evidence on Perry’s phone: the correspondence that Wise knew she was 15-years-old; the fact that he still wanted to meet her for sexual contact and when and where and at the least the one lewd photograph he allegedly sent her. The video alone is not enough! What is going on?*******
“SET UP?”
LNP finally has the story up on their website and it’s their lead story but the headline is just dreadful (click here but be aware that LNP has a paywall). And what amazes me is everyone on social media is saying the police “set up” Justin Perry. That’s a very serious charge and what exactly do they mean by it? Did the police put the child porn on his phone?

* AFTERNOON UPDATE – *** BREAKING NEWS *** & RACISM CONTINUES!
Posted on August 3rd, 2018 7 comments* This is unbelievable. WGAL at 4:00 had a piece on Thomas Wise and an interview with Justin Perry and never once mentioned that Perry has been charged as well!
WHAT MAKES PERRY TICK?
I immediately thought of this phenomenon last night when I heard Justin Perry was charged with having child pornography on his phone. Is that fair? Probably not.
But why does he do what he does? What is his motivation? How does he earn a living? He’s had run-ins with the law before.
Why is he out of jail with no bail apparently set? He is charged with two felonies.
LIP News will follow this case.******

Today, I decided to see if Lancaster County Treasurer Amber Martin had obtained the required bonds to protect the citizens. The answer: after three phone calls I still don’t have an answer. Details to follow.*******
DEFECTIVE KENNEL
* On a very serious and horrific note, a two-year-old was killed in Philadelphia last night by five pit bulls in his home.This is a brief update to the vicious pit bull attack in Lancaster on two children and their mother on June 19, 2017 (they are now using initials for the children and I will respect that and no longer use their names).The lawsuit they filed in the Lancaster Court of Common Pleas just “sat” there for a year. Finally there is action and they have found “deep pockets.” I am not being sarcastic about that – the dog’s owner, Luis Colon, probably does not have insurance since $80,000 was paid for a prior attack by his dog and these children will need medical care for years.Judge Leonard G Brown granted the below order on July 19th of this year and the revised lawsuit will be filed in Philadelphia County.

** – * WHERE IS YOUR CODE OF ETHICS, LNP!
Posted on August 1st, 2018 4 commentsCOURAGEOUS?
In regard to LNP’s editorial today, I could write (and very often do) about the racism at LNP, their huge conflict of interest as the owner of the Marriott Hotel, their failure to report on MAW and the Safety Coalition cameras and their failure to hold the police, the DA and judges accountable and on and on and on. They are caretakers of their own interests only.But I thought I would give you a direct example of LNP taking a disgraceful situation and trying to say everything is great and wonderful and a commenter just completely shutting them down.It was under their editorial, “The case of Lancaster city police Sgt. Raymond Corll yielded justice, and two courageous officers,” (click here).The simple, direct, sensible comment that was posted under it and completely destroyed their entire editorial was:I disagree with your premise about two courageous officers. Had it not been for the videotape, these officers would never have come forward and two innocent people would have been convicted and punished for crimes they did not commit. It would have been courageous for them to go to internal affairs, to the chief or to the mayor immediately after the incident occurred. At trial, under oath and penalty of perjury, not so much. Officers stick together. I get it. They have a tough job.How in the world could the editors “miss” this? Are they that stupid or just liars?UPDATE – Where is former Sgt. Ray Corll today? He has been out on bail since last June when he appealed his case to the PA Superior Court. According to his lengthy Superior Court docket, oral arguments in his appeal are scheduled for August 15, 2018 (click here).***********

From the LNP story, “Food Dude: Lancaster Burger Company, Dough Heads Waffles and Rotirrito round out the best food trucks in Lancaster,” (click here).As noted on this site on July 12th, the “Food Dude,” Dustin Leed, went to the Reading Eagle ahead of LNP’s paywall disaster (see below and click here for the original). You should have found another “food dude” or canned the series, LNP! What an embarrassment!
*****DO SOME REAL REPORTING!
…Since then, Worley & Obetz’s attorney and the company’s primary lender, Fulton Bank, have explicitly accused Lyons [former CEO Jeffrey Lyons] of fraud. He has not been criminally charged.
What’s not publicly known is how the alleged fraud was conducted and how it went undetected until recently.
From today’s LNP story, “Worley & Obetz’s financial wreckage: $60M more in liabilities than assets,” (click here).
Where is Jeffrey Lyons? This is ridiculous! LNP should have a reporter sitting outside his house day and night 24/7. Seriously! -
AFTERNOON UPDATE * JUST A GOOD OL’ WHITE BOY…
Posted on July 24th, 2018 14 commentsJUDGE HIM? HELL, YES!
Posted by Joseph Depew within the last hour on his Facebook page.I’ve been waiting patiently, Joe! I knew this was coming. So listen up:
— You are very lucky that you were not shot by the police on June 30th and you can credit that to your white skin!
— You got very, very lucky yesterday when the District Judge dropped your two felonies and let you out of jail on unsecured bail and you can credit that to your white skin.
— You are only 19 and this is the third crime you have been charged with (we don’t know if you have a juvenile record).
— You are paying Philadelphia lawyers a lot of money, Joe. A lot!
— You need to stop drinking and get rid of all your guns.
— You need to clean up your act, Joe! Oh, and all those comments about being a “Redneck” on your Facebook page – truly understand that the only reason you are out of jail is because you are a “Redneck” and you might not get as “lucky” next time. You might not get that white privilege next time because this justice system has to be fixed and made equitable so things like this never happen again.******
*** The DA’s office just released the below press release (click here). They made the bust on July 19 so why are they just reporting it today? They “save” these items for when they are looking bad and boom – all of a sudden – a big drug bust! Look how great we are!
They’ve been doing this for years and, of course, LNP never calls them on it!
*****
** Why was LNP reporter Lindsey Blest at his preliminary hearing? LNP didn’t even send a reporter to Dwain London Jr.’s preliminary and he was charged with the city hall arson, is in jail on $2 million cash bail and his hearing was in the city!
Did the DA’s office ask her to go? Did they need her to explain how this good ol’ 19-year-old white boy just has a bit of a drinking problem and explain to folks why they were dropping the two felonies and agreeing to unsecured bail? Did they need her to try to explain this blatant white privilege away?* I learn something new everyday! I didn’t know you could pay to make a criminal case go away. But it sure looks like (if you’re white) you can!
On Depew’s York County Common Pleas Docket it indicates he used a “Rule 586″ (see the insert from his docket below)!” When you google it you find what is below his docket (click here for the full entry from Zuckerman Law):

WITH A SHOTGUN!
BLATANT WHITE PRIVILEGE!

Joseph Depew and a quote from the LNP article
Oh, Judge! That is so special! I’m so glad you’re comfortable! You wouldn’t want that good ol’ white boy sitting in prison now would you?
Did someone forget to tell you about his M3 – Criminal Mischief – Damage Property – charge in York County on September 2, 2017?
Oh, and what about his DUI charge in Lancaster County on June 8, 2017? That hasn’t even been adjudicated yet. His docket indicates his trial is scheduled for August 20th!
Simply unbelievable. If ever there was a case of white privilege this is a sure winner! And why did LNP have a reporter at his preliminary hearing?
There will be much more later today. -
AFTERNOON UPDATE * LETTING HIS RACIST FLAG FLY!
Posted on July 24th, 2018 6 commentsAUCTION, AUCTION!
Lancaster City Council members from left to right: Pete Soto, Chris Ballentine, Janet Diaz, Ismail Smith-Wade-El, Faith Craig, John Graupera and President, James Reichenbach.
This evening we will learn how Lancaster City’s “bond auction” went for their proposed $112 million budget. Patrick Hopkins should be in all his lying, sleazy glory! And I still have to report on his $75,000 lie!
And if I recall correctly, Mayor Sorace stated right after she was elected that the city website was a disaster and would be totally revised and the city would begin to live stream the council meetings. So far, none of that has happened!
And there’s MAW and the police officers and Judge Madenspacher’s horrendous sentence and on and on and on. I feel overwhelmed! But what I will do tomorrow – no matter what happens – is write the Pennsylvania Attorney General and the FBI to ask why a DNA test has not been done to determine if Juanita Chevalier and Roxanne Myers had the same killer. I owe it to their families and the public has a right and a need to know. Click here for the LNP article shown below that failed to ask and answer that incredibly important and obvious question.

LAST AMERICAN PATRIOTS?
Retired Lancaster City Police Detective and now a realtor with Infinity Real Estate, James Fatta, is letting his racist flag fly high. The above is a recent post on his Facebook page. Wow!
It’s a busy day. Where are the results of the Lancaster City Police investigations of Officers Philip Bernot and Nathan Nickel, both the subjects of viral and violent videos?
City Council (pictured left) meets tonight and votes on a $112 million budget proposal including $1 million for new Safety Coalition cameras. There is a “bond auction” going on today for the financing of the $112 million.
And where is an update on MAW Communications and the over $5 million the city has paid them? Have they defaulted on their $1.5 million dollar loan from the city? And where is LNP’s coverage of this debacle?
Please check back later today. -
AFTERNOON UPDATE – DOES LNP HAVE A LIBERAL BIAS?
Posted on July 23rd, 2018 12 comments
Sadly, this was a top national news story today (click here).
**** Again from today’s front page story on Raymond Rowe who is accused of killing Christy Mirack in 1992: LNP reporter Lindsey Blest talks about and quotes Chris Ballentine yet never identifies him! He is a current city council member! What in the world is wrong with these reporters?
*****
HOW DID LNP FIND HER?
*** I am not going to link to this morning’s LNP front page story because you may have to pay to read it. But a small portion is reprinted below. How did LNP find Emily Noble? Did she call LNP and want to talk or did the DA’s office tell LNP about her?
My guess is the DA’s office because they want to put the word out that he was “abusive.” They need it to make their case and I don’t put it past them for a minute.
I didn’t think back then women went after married men and LNP doesn’t tell us why they broke up. The whole thing is bizarre:
******
UH, OH!
** Uh, oh! I got this message at 10:10 am this morning when I clicked on a story. This will not work, LNP!
******
CRAZY NARCISSIST!
Posted on Lancaster Online under, “LancasterOnline to launch digital subscription service Monday: A message from LNP’s president,” (click here).
* Oh, Kate! There is absolutely nothing good to say about the current POTUS! He’s a crazy narcissist who is embarrassing this country and everything about it daily. And good journalism is not dead (although Trump is trying to kill it)!

ALL THE NEWS
THAT’S FIT TO PAY FOR?
I have been a digital customer of LNP for several years now paying $5.15 a month. I had no problem reading the paper online this morning or reading articles on Lancaster Online.I don’t know if I have to “re-subscribe” or if they will just increase my monthly charge (which I don’t know if it’s legal without notification which I have not had). I am willing to pay $9.99 a month but not a penny more! We will see how today goes…Please check back later today.
