ICE,
Since Gianelli just copied you in on an email lying to you, I will address the latest criminally harassing email directly with you. First, I would like to say that I have removed Paulette Brandt, Linda Carol, Investigator William Frayeh (DA Investigator, Phil Spector case) and Vivienne Swanigan (City Attorney's office who essentially prosecuted me over IRS matters and lied about many IRS and federal tax matters - that will be addressed in my federal RICO lawsuit).
Stephen Gianelli, a man who allegedly resides in Greece now, is amused by his criminal conduct. He has sent me information regarding the extradition treaty between the United States and Greece and essentially believes he is untouchable. This man, who is a criminal stalker, has relentlessly harassed and stalked me for six straight years. He has harassed, stalked, threatened, and attempted to intimidate my sons, sister, elderly parents, friends, and business associates. He has hunted down my first husband and then publicly lied about him. My ex-husband addressed this in writing and I have provided that evidence to IRS, FBI, and DOJ. He essentially works as an agent provocateur and infiltrator. He is clearly an unofficial member of Leonard Cohen's defense and appears to be moonlighting for the Spector prosecution. He argues Spector prosecution theories online and has recently argued that Clarkson's DNA was not on the bullets. Her DNA was and Dennis Riordan's Brief addresses that fact.
As people are noting, including witnesses this Criminal has targeted, Gianelli appears to be a psychopath and his emails are deranged. He has publicly stated that he heard from Cohen's lawyer, Michelle Rice, in May 2009 and proceeded to target me from that time forward. In fact, this Criminal pretended to be a journalist (Joff Belark) and wrote to both me and my son under this assumed name. He is not a journalist. He had a slanderous blog devoted to Phil Spector and Michelle Blaine, Spector's former assistant who stole $1 million from him (the female Leonard Cohen is how I view her), was posting on his blog and targeted my email accounts and blogs with Gianelli. He also works in tandem with Cohen's fan, Susanne Walsh, who has questionable friends.
I did not write Linda Carol's declaration. I will, under separate cover, send you an updated version of that declaration. It doesn't matter who requested the declaration. I intend to submit it to Small Claims Court (the mediator instructed me to bring this insanity to the attention of the Court); Judge Hess in Case No. BC 338322 (I'm waiting to see how much fraud and perjury is acceptable to LA Superior Court - in a matter I was not served); and with respect to Cohen's fraud domestic violence order. In June 2005, months before Cohen obtained a fraudulent restraining order against me (after his lawyers refused to communicate with me - it's a litigation tactic) Cohen's investor noted in his lawsuit against Cohen and Kory that Cohen/Kory planned to use fraudulent restraining orders to discredit me and prevent me from serving as a credible witness in a variety of matters. I have referred Judge Hess to this lawsuit.
Karina Von Watteville, who is here on a green card, has worked with Stephen Gianelli to defraud Paulette Brandt of $6,700. Paulette was kind enough to assist her, at the request of an old friend she had not seen in years, when Karina Von Watteville was apparently evicted from the property she was renting. According to information I have received, Von Watteville failed to pay this individual approximately $4,000 in rent. He became angry and kicked her out, ultimately dumping her property on Paulette Brandt's front yard. Paulette agreed to take this woman in and the agreement was that once the green card matters were resolved, and Karina Von Watteville received her lump sum social security check, she would reimburse Paulette Brandt the sum of $500 month and a total of $700 for utilities (which equals $50/month). She paid the utility amount. Once Von Watteville received Paulette Brandt's rent demand letter, she became obsessed with me. Gianelli is now lying. IRS, FBI, and DOJ were copied on the handful of cease and desist letters I sent her. I was advised that she planned to get me in "trouble," have me investigated, began slandering me, and ultimately phoned Robert Kory (Cohen's lawyer who has targeted me relentlessly, with his partner, for 10 years now and has no qualms - from what I can tell - about lying in declarations and/or on the witness stand now that he also serves as a paid witness). Kory is not involved in Paulette Brandt's Small Claims lawsuit against Von Watteville but advised her to sue me. Magically, Gianelli is now representing Von Watteville and is threatening me over Linda Carol's declaration although it is factual.
Paulette Brandt has now disparaged Gianelli. The man has relentlessly harassed her with emails for over two years now. She advised him to cease and desist and provided Judge Hess with a declaration explaining the harassment and attaching evidence of Gianelli's harassing emails. This man refuses to cease and desist and instead has decided to become more aggressive.
Gianelli and Von Watteville are fixated on a "Wanted Poster" that I know nothing about. As far as I am concerned, based on the glamour shot used (that does not resemble Von Watteville) she created this in order to falsely accuse people. In any event, I know nothing about this but am being harassed over it.
I do not smoke pot; do not do drugs; and rarely have so much as a glass of wine. Gianelli, and others, slanders me by essentially calling me a drunken slut. It's interesting as Leonard Cohen has the long and publicly documented history of psychiatric problems, drug and alcohol abuse. He also appears to have a pattern of stealing from people and that now includes me, Machat & Machat, and Phil Spector. he, as Machat noted, falsely accuses people of ripping him off to breach contracts.
The reason I'm not credible is because LA Superior Court condones perjury and fraud and operates without jurisdiction. They also fail to validate the underlying nature of foreign orders. These matters will be addressed in my federal RICO suits.
I am NOT continuing to email the Criminal Stalker, Gianelli. I am advising him to CEASE AND DESIST. This man has no right to continually harass me, slander me, intimidate witnesses, and engage in what is clearly criminal conduct. I just phoned Investigator William Frayeh against about this situation and reminded him that residents of LA - many - continue to be criminally harassed, stalked, slandered, intimidated, etc.
I never threatened Von Watteville with deportation. If the woman has said this she is a liar. However, now that Gianelli mentions it I do wonder why people with green cards - such as Leonard Cohen and Karina Von Watteville - feel so comfortable defrauding people of monies due them. Leonard Cohen has perjured himself excessively and I have asked Judge Hess to refer him for a perjury prosecution - with his lawyers, Robert Kory and Michelle Rice. Leonard Cohen's conduct is not petty. In fact, the State of Kentucky felt IRS should go back to when Cohen obtained his first green card (1970) and audit. I have provided IRS with a 1977 tax memorandum prepared for Cohen advising him to funnel income through foreign bank accounts. Evidently Cohen did precisely that. This conduct predates my services as his personal manager. I was not his business manager. Leonard Cohen will simply lie about anything and everything from what I've seen. He abandoned his green card; got bad news about Canada; and then re-applied for a new green card. His reason? Well, he told me that IRS does not ask where you filed your prior tax returns while Canada Revenue does.
I've attached some of the documents I filed with my Motion for Terminating Sanctions. Nearly every witness has been criminally harassed by Gianelli. He argues Leonard Cohen's legal issues relentlessly. This is a highly organized campaign of criminal conduct. I've also attached the Traditional Holdings, LLC formation documents. Cohen testified that his tax lawyer secretly rectified a "mistake." He and his lawyers don't want me to know what that mistake was although I was included (by Cohen's personal tax and corporate lawyer) on federal tax returns. Leonard Cohen has now embezzled, from my perspective, approximately $6.7 million from that entity. Cohen believes that he personally is the alter ego of numerous corporate entities. He refuses to provide me with IRS required corporate and tax information. He refuses to rescind illegal K-1s his wholly owned corporation transmitted to State of Kentucky and IRS indicating that I am a partner. He has provided LA Superior Court with a fraudulent expense ledger that in no way resembles an accounting. He has used a fraudulent narrative to argue fraud and rescission. He had to argue that in order to unwind these entities and explain the transactions to IRS. He has collected royalties related to assets owned by a corporate entity and feels entitled to that income. I could go on for hours but these are just a few examples of the issues I am dealing with.
I have copied Leonard Cohen's lawyer, Jeffrey Korn, on this email because Gianelli is doing what Robert Kory advised Karina Von Watteville to do - threaten to sue me. These people are completely out of control. Many government actors are all over this situation. People actually believe I am in the movie LA Confidential. Not one LA resident being criminally harassed can seek justice in this town. They are evidently running a celebrity justice program. Cohen can simply summon LAPD's TMU and lie to them. I have no idea why Gianelli copied in Investigator William Frayeh but I know one thing - Phil Spector's legal team was clear that DeSouza, who was awarded a green card, perjured himself four times in immigration stories and changed his bogus story about Phil Spector approximately eight times.
This email is being sent to clarify the lies Gianelli just wrote ICE about me and others.
All the best,
Kelley Lynch

Ms. Lynch,
If (as you have already stated in writing) you did not draft Linda Carol’s declaration, and Linda Carol provide the declaration at the request of Ms. Brandt in aid of her small claims dispute with Ms. Von Watteville, then how did you obtain a copy of the declaration in word format in order to post it on your blog, and also to allow you to cut and paste the declaration in the text fields of your many mass emails – all in aid of republishing the declaration on the web and to the national media (including to two reporters at the Los Angeles Times)—if not from Ms. Brandt?
The logical inference is that Ms. Brandt provided it to you for that purpose, unless you removed it from the documents file of her computer without her permission (which I don’t believe). Additionally, I brought to Ms. Brandt’s attention your posting in 2013 of Ms. Brandt’s declaration that disparaged me, and the declaration did not come down from your website. It’s reasonably clear that Ms. Brandt encouraged you to republish the declaration, especially in light of the libelous flier disparaging of Ms. Von Watteville that features a unique and identifiable photograph of her take by Ms. Brandt that was also stored on Ms. Brandt’s computer as well Ms. Brandt’s other “fingerprints” on the flier (including a receipt for the copy charges paid by Ms. Brandt).
Unfortunately for you, Ms. Carol, and Ms. Brandt, the rest of the world (including potential jurors) are not all mindless pot-smoking morons that are incapable of connecting the logical dots. One can begin to see, though, why you tend not to do well in front if judicial officers or juries where your credibility is at issue.
You are doing Linda Carol no favors by continuing to email me and others on this subject, including your additional emails of today time stamped 8:36 AM,8:38 AM, 8:41 AM, 8:44 AM, 8:55 AM, 8:58 AM, 9:15 AM, and 9:21 AM. You may thrive on constant conflict and court proceedings, Ms. Carol may not have realized what you and Ms. Brandt were getting her into.
Additionally, your copying your disparaging correspondence to the Immigration and Nationalization Service after you have already threatened Ms. Von Watteville with deportation merely underscores the malicious state of mind of you and your co-actors as well as the fact that none of this serves any litigation purpose. The Department of Homeland Security (“ICE” as you refer to it) is not going to allow you to attempt to use the threat of deportation to serve your petty grievances against lawful resident aliens of this country.
Last, even if the litigation privilege operated to immunize its filing in the many court proceedings you referenced (keeping in mind that to qualify for immunity all statements in the declaration must legitimately serve the purposes of the litigation as stated in Rothman v. Jackson (1996) 49 Cal.App.4th 1134, 1145-1146) the litigation privilege DOES NOT apply to shield those who publish disparaging statements OUTSIDE THE LITIGATION, including but not limited to the media, in your blog, or in emails to persons who have no direct interest in the litigation you reference. (See Rothman v. Jackson, supra.)

Cease and desist, Gianelli and Von Watteville.
àPaulette Brandt didn't allow me to do anything. Linda Carol advised you to cease and desist. Paulette Brandt has done the same. I am not involved in this matter and have every right to put a factual declaration, that will be submitted to more than one department at LA Superior Court, on my evidence blog. This declaration is covered by the litigation privilege and the mediator (after hearing Von Watteville ranting about Leonard Cohen and Robert Kory) advised me to bring this to the attention of the Court. Von Watteville clearly condones this criminal harassment since she has been copied in on many emails. I do not know this woman who has lied about and slandered me. Is she now providing you with photographs? How vile. A woman Paulette helped who was about to end up homeless joined forces with you and Robert Kory and then defrauded Paulette Brandt of $6,700.
You have not entered a formal appearance in the fraudulent domestic violence order. I have provided Judge Hess with evidence that Cohen/Kory planned to use fraud restraining orders to discredit me as early as June 2005. LA Superior Court already advised me that Cohen was not permitted to register a non-domestic violence order (I requested prior to reading his perjured declaration) as a domestic violence order in California. Share your research with Cohen's lawyers since you are clearly an informal member of his defense team.
Tell it to the Judge, Gianelli because the declaration will be presented to the judge in Small Claims Court, Judge Hess, and the fraud restraining order matter. Von Watteville's targeting me over this issue (and contacting Cohen's lawyer) is a serious legal issue.
Cease and desist.

Ms. Lynch,
1. If, as you say, Linda Carol prepared a declaration at the request of Paulette Brandt, and Ms. Brandt allowed you to post it on your blog and then to email it to the media and to others, Ms. Brandt is legally responsible for the unprivledged publications of the email.
2. You previously stated that Ms. Carol’s declaration was prepared for you to file in support of your “motion to vacate the fraud domestic violence order” (as you put it) issued by a Colorado Court in 2008 and registered in California pursuant to Family Code §§ 6401 and 6404(a), and you did not claim that the Carol declaration was filed in support of Paulette Brandt’s small claims proceeding until I pointed out to you that registration of the Colorado order in California on May 25, 2011 was a ministerial act, and that expunging it from CLETS would turn on a legal question not a factual one, let alone the alleged character of a third party who you did not even know until two years later. Therefore, should Ms. Watteville file suit as I have advised her she has a right to do, your transparent change of stories about why the declaration was created will be damaging to your credibility.
3. At the time the declaration was created, there was no small claims action involving Ms. Von Watteville pending, and Ms. Brandt’s rent claim against Ms. Watteville had already been dismissed “with prejudice” by the court pursuant to the applicable statute of limitations. Moreover, even if Ms. Von Watteville’s alleged propensity to live in filth and to infect her living quarters with bugs was somehow logically connected to Paulette Brandt’s prior claim for back rent (it wasn’t), the litigation privilege would not apply to its publication outside the litigation, including to Kelley Lynch, and its foreseeable republication by Ms. Lynch in emails to the national media and to others and on her blog. (See Rothman v. Jackson (1996) 49 Cal.App.4th 1134, 1145-1146 [The “communicative act . . . must function as a necessary or useful step in the litigation process and must serve its purposes.” Statements outside the litigation to the press are not subject to the privilege either.]
4. Ms. Carol (according to your email communications, copied to her – which she has not denied) - additionally published to you additional scurrilous and defamatory statements about Ms. Watteville, which, as you helpfully point out, were not included in the declaration at all. There is therefore no arguable litigation privilege for Ms. Carol’s defamatory assertions that Ms. Von Watteville is a prostitute, involved in the porn industry, is guilty of fraud and (allegedly) habitually fails to pay her bills or your foreseeable republication of them on your blog and in mass emails to the media and to others.
5. Some of these allegations predated Ms. Carol’s move into Ms. Brandt’s apartment and appear to have originated with Ms. Brandt, including the allegation that Ms. Von Watteville brought garbage and cockroaches into the apartment and that Ms. Von Watteville was defrauding the estate of an elderly man, which is also false. Moreover, the attached false and malicious flier was distributed in Ms. Von Watteville’s neighborhood and has a unique photograph embedded in it taken by Ms. Brandt that could only have been supplied by her. A copy service receipt formerly in Ms. Brandt’s possession for the production of the flier (52 known copies of which were gathered and returned to Ms. Von Watteville, with many more distributed) also establishes Ms. Brandt’s involvement not only in the production and distribution of the flier, but in the larger effort to damage Ms. Von Watteville’s reputation in aid of persuading her to pay the alleged back-rent. The allegations in the flier are very similar to the general allegation that Ms. Carol, acting through Ms. Lynch, have made in mass emails and in blog posts that Ms. Von Watteville is guilty of “fraud”.
6. For all of these reasons, I have advised Ms. Von Watteville that she has a good and meritorious cause of action against Paulette Brandt, Kelley Lynch and Linda Carol for libel per se. Whether or not Ms. Von Watteville decides to devote the time and energy to pursuing this meritorious cause of action in a court of general jurisdiction is up to Ms. Von Watteville and remains to be seen. Because I am retired and living abroad I cannot appear in any such action on her behalf, but have offered my technical legal assistance with any such lawsuit until such time as she retains counsel.
7. As for the small claims action, for the reasons stated in Ms. Von Watteville’s Answer to Ms. Brandt’s “motion for a new hearing” filed and served by mail on Ms. Brandt yesterday, that proceeding has been finally determined and is over. The court lacks jurisdiction to hear, let alone grant Ms. Brandt’s new trial motion.
8. Regarding Ms. Carol’s emailed statement of today, stating: “I don’t have any idea what you are talking about”, playing dumb and denying the obvious are not likely to immunize Ms. Carol from a likely substantial damage award for her participation in the malicious effort to damage Ms. Von Watteville’s reputation.

Stephen Gianelli,
I am advising you to cease and desist harassing me and my friends. I do not know Karina Von Watteville. You have no idea where I live. I view this email to Linda Carol as blatant witness tampering. Your slander, threats, intimidation tactics, etc. will now be brought to the attention of the Court. Linda Carol prepared a declaration for Paulette Brandt and you have relentlessly harassed us over this matter. Karina Von Watteville did not know you. She contacted Robert Kory, after receiving Paulette Brandt's rent demand letter, and ended up being legally assisted by you - in defrauding Paulette Brandt. Linda Carol's declaration will have litigation privilege as it is being submitted to the Court in the Small Claims matter. It is factual.
Your threats are also going to be reported to the State Bar since you are the individual, with Von Watteville, who is lying and who has targeted me (and others - including my sons) for six straight years now. You definitely appear to be part of Cohen's informal defense team. That would explain your legal research and opinions I am constantly harassed with related to Cohen matters.
Cease and desist.

Ms. Carol,
1. The fact that some of the more salacious defamatory statements you have uttered were omitted from your “declaration” does not affect your civil liability. Even verbal, nonprivileged, defamatory statements published to a third party can get you sued for libel – especially when made to someone like Kelley Lynch who is notorious for maliciously using her blogs and mass emailing’s (routinely copied to the national and Los Angeles media and others) as a platform to attempt to ruin the reputations of those who she feels have crossed her in some way (in this case by “calling Robert Kory”). Stated another way, a reasonable person who has been living in close quarters with Kelley Lynch since 2013 would have foreseen that your verbal and written defamatory statements about Karina Von Watteville would be re-published by Ms. Lynch to a mass audience in mass emails and on the world-wide-web – which is exactly what happened, and Google, as they say, is forever.
2. Do you really want to spend the next years of your life slogging it out in court with Kelley Lynch, as Ms. Lynch has for the past few years? For what? To get even with Ms. Von Watteville? Respectfully, where is the upside for you in all of this?
3. If you do get sued, you only have yourself to blame.
