RAINBOW FAMILY GATHERINGS: Unofficial Community for Rainbow Family Gatherngs
ShaniSena Alert ---repost---
I got an email this morning then i saw this on myspace. I hung out with this guy. He's DAMN good liar and he's been at it for a while. I don't normally support this type of post, but this guy is still at it. Most recently, he's suspected of having stolen money from Felipe (Kid Village), a laptop from Lynne, and 800 of CALM money.

Rip Off Alert
howdy,
this is a Shanti Sena Alert, high priority.... please send information to .., Rob Savoye .., or plunker .....
ALERT ON DOOBIE OR TURQUOISE,
Complaints: this Annual 2009... a guy calling himself "Doobie ".... ALSO CALLED HIMSELF MICHAEL PENDLETON... claimed to be a MEDIC.. was part of several sensitive situations....
called himself Michael Pendleton from Northern California
used email ads..
jpenn@gmail.com
any other information??
]]]] NOTE:
apparently, even though this guy stated he was a MEDIC.... no one seemed to have actually CHECKED HIS CREDENTIALS... not any of the folks in CALM, etc...
i would like to suggest that (IN THE FUTURE) an yone that proposes to be a MEDIC.. that somone from CALM or the Medical folks CHECK THEIR ACTUAL NAME AND CREDENTIALS... before any of these folks are accepted as Medic.... (i thought, by now, this would be normal, routine practice)..
Folks who are working Shanti Sena, with Medics might should check out such persons also...
"Doobie" apparently used peoples names as "creds"(with each other) and no one back-checked...
MEDICAL PEOPLE -- please check each other out... a number of folks have been medical with Gathering for many years, who are known and trusted... some of these folks could check these other folks -- "newbees".... please.. ]]]]]
"DOOBIE" was involved in several RIP-OFFS, etc...:
(1) ripped off some folks (for money) outa of the "Clean-up, 2009",
(2) plus stopped at peoples' houses in Albuquerque... ripped off stuff...
(3) then, gaining the trust of Lynn (kid village lynn) he ripped her lap-top computer... and stole some $60 from Felipe...(kid village) .... this is in Denver (last few days 7/20/09 or so...)
It is likely that this guy is not only someone with the bad-habits of ripping and posing... BUT, he also may very well be an AGITATOR OR TROUBLEMAKER OR INFORMER... paid by the FEDERALS, etc...
below is a list of stuff he has been involved in (suspected)... past Gatherings, Earth First Rendezvous, etc..
DOOBIE PROFILE: AKA JOHN GLASS, MICHAEL PENDLETON, etc..
A Brief Bio of "John Glass" (probably not his real name)
Has also used the names Jason Hammel, John West and Rew or Andrew Stines. He looks a little different every time he shows up at a campaign but always volunteers to do security or communications shifts. He is branching out to many more different campaigns and events than just EF! or Rainbow.
Fall 1997
Posed as a medic at the Headwaters base camp in Stafford, CA. Gave out one prescription medication for any malady. Two tents full of donated camping and climbing gear disappeared just before he did.
Summer 1998
Spent time in activists' houses in Missoula, MT. Carefully watched videos at the Cold Mountain, Cold Rivers office. Dropped names, carried cell phone, made many claims of fame, gave details of events that took place a direct action at Headwaters to gain trust with one activist who later loaned him her 4X4 truck for "wood gathering" at Buffalo Nations in West Yellowstone, MT. Told the campaign that the truck was for sale and that he was going to be buying it. Claimed to be a "big dope grower" from Alderpoint, CA, and to be on a hot shot fire crew. "Volunteered" at Buffalo Nations (now Buffalo Field Campaign), flashed a (stolen?) park service badge, spread rumors of mushroom cultivation which got him kicked out, but not before he stole a wallet and credit cards from another volunteer and ordered hundreds of dollars of compute r software. It was rumored he was driving to Helena a lot to screw a girl who looked to be 14 years old. The truck was returned once the activist filed a police report stating the truck stolen and an all-points bulletin issued in 4 states. He deserted the vehicle in a field, with Bob Marley & Grateful Dead tape, Burger King trash, gas can & lantern in it. He stole an antique knife-axe from the truck.
Fall 1998
"Volunteered" at Black Mesa and Shundahai Network. Stole several hundred dollars of petty cash. Showed a wallet with a military ID. Activists later attempted a search but "access" was "denied".
Fall-Winter 1998
Used Buffalo Nations business card he'd printed up to gain entry into the Minnehaha Free State in Minneapolis, MN. Claimed to be from Arcata, CA. Was deemed untrustworthy and coincidently the activists picked up strong police radio signals when he was in camp. He was asked to leave, he asked if he could get "his axe" first. When he was taken to the bus station, he used the phone and later some eyewitnesses saw him picked up by two men in suits in a black car with tinted windows.
Fall 1999
Elaho Valley, BC Canada. Infiltrated the campaign to stop logging in the Elaho Vally. Became involved with the road blockades for several weeks. Gained trust of activists who asked him to caretake their house. He was gone upon their return along with many of their belongings. He possibly stole a white van as well.
July 2000
Worked at CALM (the first aid station) at the national Rainbow Gathering in Montana. Used the names "Turquoise" and "Sun Ray". Dropped names to gain trust, and claimed to be a "Wilderness Paramedic" (there is no such title). Claimed to have a van full of "Earth First!s radio equipment, satellite phone, and climbing gear. The van is rumored to have been stolen in Canada. Disappeared for 24 hours. Exhibited minor first aid skills but called for a helicopter evacuation for a fellow who'd smashed his knuckles punching a tree. Came out of "nowhere" when folks were setting up the radio repeater for the communication system at the gathering. Smoked huge quantities of cannabis daily. Hit on underage women. Gave a false e-mail address: fletcher97@earthlink/enviro.org. Dug a huge pit in a wetland and put medical waste in it. Skipped out with 4 of the radios:
1- Kenwood 78
1- Linco 580T
1- F-T 50
1- F-T 51R both worth $500 each.
Also missing are a Yaesu FT51R battery pack, a Motorola FRS radio, and one Pryme PR 460 GMRS radio.
July 2000
From Helena, MT he traveled to a Hempfest in Harrisburg, Lynn County, Oregon with Lynn Hargrave and Laura Thompson. Involved with Lynn in a relationship since the Rainbow gathering. Stole Laura's '98 VW Jetta, CA plates on July 14, 2000 with all of her belongings. Report is filed with "corp. Yon" 7-17-00 at the Police Dept. at Lynn County. (541-967-3911)
July 2000
Springerville, AZ, visited with Alex Pierce whom he'd met at the gathering. Hung around Alex's tattoo shop for a week, recieved a "Steal Your Face" tattoo on his right upper arm just below t-shirt line. (Steal Your Face is a red white and blue skull/thunderbolt graphic from the Grateful Dead). Made a concoction of herbs in the kitchen that were supposed to be "hallucinogenic" but made Alex violently ill and unable to get out of bed the next morning. He stole keys to the tattoo shop and stole $3900 worth of camera equipment.
1-Nikon FA with a motor drive
1-F2 28mm lens
1-F18 85mm lens
1-Metz flash
1-Yaesu FT50R (SN#7N240843)
Police report should be on file in Springerville, AZ. He also stole laminates for hemp/High Times events and skipped town.
Used the alias David M. West pobox 557, Arcadia, CA. (a ham radio operator in Milford, Michigan) Also used the call sign KAIJFI, belongs to a ham radio operator in Massachusetts. John Glass is a ham radio operator with call sign in Michigan.
August 2000
Appeared at the convergence space prior to the protests at the Democratic National Convention in Los Angeles, showed security a backpack full of radio and camera equipment. His photo had already been circulated through the security crews so he was immediately asked to leave. He supposedly went to the Anarchist Convention instead. At the Rage Against the Machine concert he set up a pup tent near the stage and was doing "first aid". An activist observed him wrap gauze on a compound fracture of the forearm.
August-September 2000
Tried to infiltrate Santa Cruz Earth First! at the Western Regio n al Rendezvous using the name "David". Tried to get someone to "hook him up with two ounces" , a felony even in California, at an event that had a posted No Drugs policy. Bragged about having lots of very expensive radio equipment and claimed to be a reporter for High Times. Asked too many odd questions and was booted, also the activists had seen his photo and knew him to be an unwanted thief.
-----------------------------
Establish and practice good security culture. All communities should have a plan for how to deal with infiltraitors/disruptors. If you have contact with this person or if he shows up at your campaign with the stolen radio gear, encourage him to produce the stuff "on loan." If it's the stolen gear, reclaim it. You can do a citizen's arrest but call the cops. All campaigns should be warned of his method of operation as there are others like him who have or will use similar methods. "Glass" has poisoned someone; he is dangerous; DO NOT LEAVE HIM ALONE.

Doobie is still at it. He was seen last in Denver at 3 am. Staying with some friends of mine and when they woke up this morning, Doobie was gone as well as their laptop, ipods and jewelry and stones.
Keep your eyes open, Family

no need to track him down. lol. that would assume we knew what to do with him next.
the idea is he is banned from inclusion in any event. Let me reiterate:
"Establish and practice good security culture. All communities should have a plan for how to deal with infiltraitors/disruptors. If you have contact with this person or if he shows up at your campaign with the stolen radio gear, encourage him to produce the stuff "on loan." If it's the stolen gear, reclaim it.

"Glass" has poisoned someone; he is dangerous; DO NOT LEAVE HIM ALONE."
Make him move along before more problems arise. Grifters like him are out for the easy hustle. And above all, revenge and retribution are not the ways of Shanti-Sena. Please remember that and focus on a proactive solution.

What to do about Doobie. How about gettin' him popped, if for no other reason than to protect future Family from gettin' ripped off. This is a no-brainer. The first rule of medicine is, Do No Harm! By allowin him to roam free and wreak havoc in people's lives, is DOING HARM TO THE INNOCENT!
Remember the ancient proverb: He who kind to the cruel, will evolve into being cruel to the kind!"
Peace, Moish
