Info Post
This is the latest post in what I half-jokingly call The Kimberlin Saga®.  If you are new to the story, that’s okay! Not everyone reads my blog.  The short version is that Kimberlin has been harassing me for over a year, his worst conduct being when he attempted to frame me for a crime.  I recognize that this might sound like an incredible claim, but I provide video and documentary evidence of that fact; in other words, you don’t have to believe my word.  You only have to believe your eyes.  So, if you are new to the story, go to this page and you’ll be able to catch up on what has been happening.


First, dear readers, I am sorry for the silence on the blog last week.  Let us simply say that an event occurred Friday that I am working with the police on, and it is soaking up a great deal of my time.  I will tell you that story at the appropriate time.

But this post is on a different subject.  I was told by friends that Schmalfeldt is now claiming he would like to go to Milwaukee to be at the side of his ailing mother.  I have just sent the following email to him and now post it here, to facilitate communication with him:

Mr. Schmalfeldt,

I have learned through others that you wanted to go to Milwaukee because your mother is ill, but felt you could not.

Schmalfeldt, I am not heartless.  If you need to be at her side, be there.  We can work this out.  We can protect my interests in one of two ways.  First, you can consent to have the temporary peace order extended until you can come back and then have the hearing over whether the final peace order will be issued.  The second option is to consent to the peace order itself.  This will not represent a finding that you actually did what I accused you of, but it will keep you from contacting me, going to where I live, etc. for six months.

I do recommend that you consult with your own independent counsel on this.  I would prefer any further communications take place through such counsel.  But on the chance that you do not presently have a lawyer, I give you permission to contact me, politely and calmly, for the limited purpose of effectuating a solution to your problem.  Polite and calm communications designed to work this out will not be treated as harassment or electronic harassment.  That is only if you do not presently have a lawyer.  If you do, then simply give him my contact information and we will work it out.

In any case, I do hope your mother’s health improves.

Sincerely,

Aaron J. Walker, Esq.

For those who are confused, last Friday I filed charges against Schmalfeldt for harassment and electronic harassment.  On the same day I filed for a peace order against him.  A temporary peace order was granted.  A final peace order hearing is scheduled for tomorrow.

Since writing this, I have seen tweets from Schmalfeldt indicating that he will go to Milwaukee and an attorney will ask for a postponement (he probably means a continuance).  I sent this additional email.

I have seen since I wrote the email below that you actually are on your way to Milwaukee and you intend to ask your attorney for a postponement.  Have him contact me, and we will work it out.

And I will say a prayer for her health, for what it is worth.

Aaron

So there you go.

Disclaimer:

I have accused some people, particularly Brett Kimberlin, of reprehensible conduct.  In some cases, the conduct is even criminal.  In all cases, the only justice I want is through the appropriate legal process—such as the criminal justice system.  I do not want to see vigilante violence against any person or any threat of such violence.  This kind of conduct is not only morally wrong, but it is counter-productive.

In the particular case of Brett Kimberlin, I do not want you to even contact him.  Do not call him.  Do not write him a letter.  Do not write him an email.  Do not text-message him.  Do not engage in any kind of directed communication.  I say this in part because under Maryland law, that can quickly become harassment and I don’t want that to happen to him.

And for that matter, don’t go on his property.  Don’t sneak around and try to photograph him.  Frankly try not to even be within his field of vision.  Your behavior could quickly cross the line into harassment in that way too (not to mention trespass and other concerns).

And do not contact his organizations, either.  And most of all, leave his family alone.

The only exception to all that is that if you are reporting on this, there is of course nothing wrong with contacting him for things like his official response to any stories you might report.  And even then if he tells you to stop contacting him, obey that request.  That this is a key element in making out a harassment claim under Maryland law—that a person asks you to stop and you refuse.

And let me say something else.  In my heart of hearts, I don’t believe that any person supporting me has done any of the above.  But if any of you have, stop it, and if you haven’t don’t start.
