Hi Ann,

How are you? The Criminal Stalker's on a real roll these days. Leonard Cohen is the individual who has told me, and others, that he participated in CIA's MKULTRA program. I didn't really know much about the program. I know that Cohen also told me that he participated in LSD experiments for money in Canada. Is it true, Ann? That would be impossible for me to determine. Leonard Cohen tells tales about his role in Bay of Pigs, Yom Kippur War, and other revolutions. He has written lyrics about being "our most important spy." He has basically informed journalists that he was CIA reconnaissance during the Bay of Pigs and captured by either Castro's forces or rebels. I've written CIA and asked for an interview about this program and their use of operatives to get a message out. I also intend to file FOIA requests.

It would be impossible for me corroborate Cohen's own statements. I can merely address what he told me. Please take note of Gianelli's use of the word "Ha!" in communications.

Speaking of "conspiracy theories," which of the three versions of Leonard Cohen's good rock 'n roll gun story about Phil Spector do you believe? He has three before LA Superior Court now. Do you think it was a gun to the head, neck or chest? An automatic or semi-automatic? Cohen has also told stories about an incident that allegedly involved a cross-bow. Do you believe his own testimony that I never "stole" from him and we were in a "purely business relationship" or the fabricated narratives used to defend Cohen against allegations that he committed criminal tax fraud and obtain fraudulent tax refunds? Cohen has so many versions of stories that it's impossible to keep up with him. I do agree with you - when confronted with his lies he will never back down. He is incapable of that. But that won't stop his operative, Stephen Gianelli, from stalking, criminally harassing, and slandering us. He's clearly on someone's payroll and definitely seems to be an unofficial member of Cohen's legal team and affiliated with Spector prosecutors. Gianelli also argues Spector prosecution theories online. Here's an interesting article from Radar Online about the Spector case. Lana Clarkson's friend, who understood her emotional state, believes Phil Spector is innocent and Clarkson shot herself. The stakes are high and the lows are vile and positively evil.

I think your piece on Gianelli really summed this criminal up. This man is nothing other than a common criminal and ambulance chaser. Since Gianelli didn't know Cohen, me, or you for the 17 or so years I knew and worked with Cohen, his false statements that you ever harassed or bothered Cohen are pathetic. That's Cohen's fabricated narrative due to the fact that Freda Guttman questioned you about what her daughter heard Lorca Cohen publicly state at Concordia.

Ann Diamond on Stephen Gianelli

When Stephen Gianelli’s emails land in my inbox, mostly out of the blue and unsolicited, they are so overflowing with repetitive accusations, misinformation, threats, self-aggrandizing boasts, undiluted rage, and general nastiness that it's next to impossible to read to the end of one of them. My impulse is always to ignore them and tell him to stop sending them. That he seems to have unlimited energy and endless time to go over all these details with someone he does not know in an attempt to win me over, while at the same time he constantly accuses me of having an ancient axe to grind with Cohen (i.e. I'm a hopeless case, as far as he's concerned, so he's barking furiously up the wrong tree), would under normal circumstances be a sign of mental imbalance.

He always throws in plenty of insults, false statements and fanciful deductions. His tone is that of a pitbull straining at the leash and gives me flashbacks of a courtroom where I’m being cross-examined by a vicious criminal lawyer whose whole strategy is to exhaust and terrorize the witness. Gianelli’s game is to complicate and obfuscate, mixing legal arguments with irrelevant nonsense. He seems to assume his opponent is stupid and weak and can be overwhelmed by a word-salad. I think some of this could be caused by his overuse of "copy and paste" -- he's in a hurry and not really writing "to me" or trying to make a persuasive argument. He doesnt reread his emails to see what kind of message they actually convey: that the writer is standing on some soapbox in his mind, shouting at the world, like certain mental patients you see walking the streets who seem to be mad at the air, the cars, the sidewalk.

He's obviously not interested in holding a discussion, getting to the truth, or looking beyond the various documents he "downloaded at his own expense" -- and as anyone with common sense knows, legal documents don't prove what really happened in 2004-5. They convey some of the evidence, all of it coming from one side.

Gianelli's explanation as to why he's been out to get Kelley Lynch since 2008, does not make sense either. He claims she slandered him and called him names on the internet, and in revenge he has totally immersed himself in her legal case. To the point of contacting her relatives and friends, spreading false stories about her, making up quotes, “writing her in jail”, posting photos of her residence and roommates on his blog – for the past seven years. Nobody in their right mind, let alone a 'successful trial lawyer' -- who has no material interest in this case, and is not a paid shill -- behaves like this. It's not just extremely unprofessional, it would land him on 'stress leave' or in serious trouble with his colleagues and peers if he were still practicing. Hiding behind the handle Blogonaut would not conceal his identity for long, especially not on the porous internet. His badly written and often illogical, emotional rants would embarrass and bring him close to professional suicide.

But apparently since he's retired, and apparently well-off, and lives in a comfortable tax haven on Crete, he doesn't seem to care and just indulges his childish fantasies and catty remarks with his tiny circle of cronies. It’s fairly obvious he uses alternate accounts and different IDs, e.g. “Mongochili,” to make it appear others read his blog and share his ‘obcession’ with Lynch. His sheer extremism indicates he is either a “rogue criminal lawyer” gone slightly postal, or a paid agent of Leonard Cohen and/or his legal team. I think the latter.

I think his over-the-top campaign will have the opposite effect than the one intended: it can only make people suspicious of the case against Kelley Lynch. Otherwise, why not let justice take its course? Why subject her to endless attacks over the internet if she has already been declared guilty? This kind of harassment resembles 'gang stalking' -- except that Gianelli seems to be both the leader and most of the membership of his own gang.

Gianelli is like no other email correspondent I have ever had. A single-paragraph response from my end always leads to a flood from his. Each exchange is like a trip down a rabbithole of irrational rage. Here and there he mixes in details and facts which might be worth discussing, if they weren’t drowned by high-volume invective. Of course this could be a tactic: if he really was ever a successful trial lawyer, it may have been by being an insufferable bully. Or maybe most of his cases involved low-life criminals or people with little or no education.

He claims to have accurately predicted the outcome of every Lynch hearing -- but then so could I. As we all know, cases are won on technicalities. That's one of the reasons, including the 10-year series of precedents, that I am not surprised the judge dismissed Kelley's motion.

If Gianelli were truly a respectable lawyer, he would restrict his comments to these legal matters, and not engage in bizarre slander and speculation. He would have no need to bring up my "past" - or a wacked version of it that sounds like it came from someone on Cohen's disinfo team. He draws from a psychological profile that is easily recognizable because I have heard it from other Cohen groupies. As someone who saw a bit too much when I knew Cohen, I’m no stranger to slander, I've written out my story on a public blog etc. where anyone can read what I have to say. Much of what I have written on Cohen was initially to defend myself against gossip and rumours that were circulated (and believed) by some of his friends. My side is completely different, much more detailed and accurate. It's also quite revealing of the life of a clever pop idol in our celebrity-worshiping culture. There's no point in my arguing with people who base their opinions on ridiculous myths, like the 'restraining order' that never was. Cohen's deceptive tactics have not really evolved in the past twenty years, since he used them on me.

I really don't care if Gianelli thinks I am a star-struck 'scorned woman' who never got over her passing encounter with greatness. This Mafia-style lawyer's fixed opinions, based on trashy clichés say much more about him than they do about me or my writing, or why I became interested in what really happened to Kelley Lynch.

And of course, no one would ever suspect Leonard Cohen of encouraging Gianelli. But in my experience, Gianelli is exactly the kind of human megaphone Cohen places in charge of his 'secret business.' Like other clowns from Cohen's private entourage that I have met over the years, he may not even realize he's being used because he is ridiculous and therefore disposable. It's a fascinating system that owes much to the criminal underworld that Leonard Cohen skirts with all the skill of someone born into it. I'm sure Gianelli feels at home, and knows his place, in that world where he acts the part of a useful idiot whose job is to create a circus atmosphere and put the audience into a deeper state of trance.

I am by now firmly convinced Lynch is a patsy/victim of a weird consortium of Cohen associates, clueless supporters, and Cohen himself. If I hadn't lived next door to Leonard Cohen, and witnessed similar dynamics twenty years ago, I might believe differently. But the essence of what happened to Kelley also happened to me, two decades ago, on a lesser scale with lower stakes. It was relatively easy for me to walk away from it back then – my reputation was damaged but my life was not utterly destroyed by my association with Leonard Cohen, as Kelley's was.

I empathize with her situation, and see it as just one more story of the corruption that is sinking the whole world. I know Leonard Cohen would agree with that. He would only disagree with the idea that we all have an obligation to oppose injustice, rather than 'let it go by' and even profit from it.

Hello CIA,

Rigorous Intuition's thread on CIA's MKULTRA program and Leonard Cohen's self-acknowledged role in that program is quite interesting. Have you had an opportunity to listen to Paulette, Ann, and my interviews? They're quite revealing. I can assure you that I am not to blame for Cohen's statements that he was in MKULTRA or with respect to his insane stories about the Bay of Pigs, Yom Kippur War, etc. These stories, together with Cohen's perjured testimony and three versions of his good rock 'n roll gun stories about Phil Spector (now before LA Superior Court), prove that Leonard Cohen is a chronic liar and fabulist. He comes up with one fabricated narrative after another. He also likes to intrigue journalists and fans with his inferences that he is some type of spy or revolutionary. I would like to interview someone at CIA for my book. What precise message would CIA attempt to communicate through Leonard Cohen? It makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. Also, Cohen has a long and publicly documented history of drug and alcohol abuse, psychiatric problems, etc. He has publicly discussed his extensive use of LSD, meth, etc. Even the film "American Ultra" concluded that it would be very very difficult to mind control someone who is high and indulges in drugs.

In any event, I would like to interview someone at CIA familiar with the MKULTRA program and the use of mind controlled operatives. Many people seem extremely interested in this program and LA Confidential appears to be running some type of psychotic spin-off.
