Bicoastal Kocis Cuadra Investigations

Mission Accomplished! The Kocis Murder Case Truth Revealed by Subtle Strategy and Strategic Tactics

2008-12-08T17:39:00.004-05:00

We are pleased to announce that our mission to accomplish justice for the victim has been largely accomplished. The only remaining issue is the extent to which the hand of justice will weigh heavily on the person we believe is actually responsible for the physical murder of Cobra Video owner Bryan Kocis. The accomplice has been maneuvered by the wheels of justice to make the only play he rationally could this date, thereby saving himself from the gurney and the needle.

It can now be revealed that other Kocis case bloggers have inadvertently helped us to accomplish this goal, playing the parts we set for them and fulfilling the grand design of subtle strategy and strategic tactics. We thank them for helping us to accomplish the goal of justice even while some of them were led to believe that we were the "enemy" in this case.

We eagerly anticipate the coming in-depth book examination of the Cobra Video murder case, its implications for the gay video industry, and the undercover investigatory techniques used to motivate today's guilty plea on the part of Joseph Kerekes, which we are careful to note was as the accomplice to the crime, but not the actual killer.

DeWayne in SD in undesirable position with no lube re: Bryan Kocis murder case

2008-06-10T00:44:00.001-04:00

DeWayne in SD may have placed himself in an undesirable position with respect to the prosecution of Harlow Cuadra and Joseph Kerekes, an undesirable position with no lube.

I hear that the Avatar is digging deeply into this with the aim of getting DeWayne out of the game and getting justice for the defendants.

From his webchat tonite it's all about that little petition DewayneinSD "mounted" on his blog to get the FBI to inspect Cobra Video's 2257 Records, so that DewayneinSD may just be forcing prosecutors in Luzerne County to admit that they know Cobra Video's 2257 Records were not destroyed (or, at the very least, that prosecutors made no attempt to determine if in fact Cobra Video's 2257 Records were actually destroyed).

It is a given that the charges that Cuadra and Kerekes stole and destroyed Bryan Kocis' business records are based solely on prosecutors' "interpretation" of what Harlow Cuadra said on the Blacks Beach Tapes.

No one in Luzerne County appears to be claiming that they did an investigation and found that Bryan Kocis' business records were missing.

So, Harlow Cuadra and Joseph Kerekes are being charged with stealing and destroying Bryan Kocis' business records. However, Cobra Video is still in business.

What's up with that?

Dangerous Case Law Precedent set in Kocis-Cuadra case by Arbitrary Ruling about Atty. Fannick

2008-03-20T15:53:00.004-04:00

The Luzerne County Court of Common Pleas has just arbitrarily and capriciously REDEFINED what constitutes an implied or actual attorney-client relationship in disqualifying attorney Demetrius Fannick from defending Bryan Kocis murder co-defendant Harlow Cuadra.

It's a sad day for Pennsylvania jurisprudence that we hope will be overturned on appeal.

Now conflict counsel Stephen Menn, Michael Senape and Paul Galante will resume their roles as Cuadra's attorneys - which opens a whole new can of worms.

This case and its background and antecedents is weirder than any movie or soap opera - but there are lives at stake and a life lost. Hopefully the appellate court will reverse this ruling, which in our view sets a very dangerous precedent by allowing a court and prosecutors to essentially play both ends against the middle - while arguably jeapordizing the defendant's right to competent and timely counsel.

Why Harlow Cuadra will walk: Cuadra's letter and what Bryan Kocis told me in 2006 about his guilty plea being "cured"

2008-03-18T00:53:00.003-04:00

Responding to all those asking us about Harlow Cuadra's chances of getting off with a light sentence, or even having the case against him dismissed, I will say this: As the last industry reporter to interview BOTH Cuadra and Joe Kerekes the day before their arrests on May 15, 2007, AND exchange detailed communication with them post incarceration, I have discovered something in one of Harlow's letters to me (of which I still have a copy) that ties in DIRECTLY to what the late murder victim BRYAN KOCIS told me by phone in 2006.

This was in regard to his guilty plea in 2002. It has a STRONG CONNECTION to what happened in regard to a little known case brought against a certain gay escort and Soviet bloc video maker who was in DEEP trouble in 2003 until a "cure" was found based on some highly creative negotiations and rumored payoffs...a precedent that very possibly provided the TEMPLATE for the resolution of the Kocis guilty plea in 2006.

I can't say more in view of my strong desire to see justice done and the legal process proceed in this case, but in closing I will make a VERY SIGNIFICANT CONNECTION for you all that almost ALL OTHER REPORTERS HAVE MISSED.

Here it is: It's widely acknowledged in Luzerne County, Pennsylvania that current President Judge Mark Ciavarella was Judge Michael Conahan's handpicked successor. Judge Michael Conahan was the judge overseeing Bryan Kocis' 2002 guilty plea AS WELL AS the judge who "revised" Bryan Kocis' guilty plea in 2006. The actual word Kocis used to me about this was "cured".

Think about that. It has NEVER been satisfactorily explained how Bryan Kocis could operate the business he did out of his house in a residential area OR how he managed to get his guilty plea reclassified and revised. It's simply UNPRECEDENTED. The ONLY POSSIBLE EXPLANATION resides in something that hasn't been admitted to or brought up in any of the depositions or legal filings publicly known to date, although DAMON believes there is SOMETHING locked in the judge's safe that could very well lead to the outright DISMISSAL of ALL charges against Harlow Cuadra EXCEPT being an accessory after the fact...and also lead to the successful prosecution of JOE KEREKES as the person I believe will be shown to be the actual killer, with the death penalty very likely being imposed on Kerekes.

Yes, Bryan Kocis' guilty plea was "cured" because there was a much LARGER issue involved, in my opinion...the true nature and extent of which may never be revealed, but whose possible use at trial (as Cuadra's Atty. Fannick will surely imply) will be enough to greatly mitigate or dismiss the case against Cuadra.

And yes, I believe that Harlow Cuadra and Bryan Kocis had PRIOR CONTACT, unknown and unrevealed, on a different basis than what you might think, specifically in 2006.

PLAUSIBLE DENIABILITY for someone or some group much higher up on the food chain is at work here, in the KRUEZER VIEW.

That is my assessment. These are the words of DAMON KRUEZER.

VANISHED BLOGGER MAY HOLD THE KEY TO WHO CONTRACTED THE BRYAN KOCIS MURDER

2008-02-24T22:56:00.004-05:00

Missing Blogger "KM" with apparent ties to government agencies involved in the Bryan Kocis murder case may have been "terminated with extreme prejudice" contrary to what his then-partner "PC" has stated...DEVELOPING

THE KRUEZER has been researching the sudden and mysterious disappearance of the co-owner and investigative partner of the well known Handjtrial blog run by "PC" concerning the Kocis-Cuadra-Kerekes murder case. We have discovered strong indications that the person known as "KM" may well have not disappeared by his own choice as PC hastily and clumsily tried to say several months ago, but that KM may literally have been terminated with extreme prejudice because of what he had apparently found out about the case that his then-partner PC was not willing - or was paid - to publish.

An escort who died under mysterious circumstances in Washington last year may well be involved and according to our research, may actually have been KM himself, which would explain so much for those of you who like us, never bought into PC's story of KM's sudden retirement for reasons never made clear.

The truth in this matter may be darker than anyone can imagine, and if our research so far is validated all the way, then the resolution of the Kocis-Cuadra-Kerekes murder case may well depend on what we have discovered concerning the suddenly vanished KM, what he knew, when he knew it...and most of all, what he was planning on doing with this knowledge, based on his alleged connections to high-level government agencies involved in the case.

This could be the "Rosetta stone" that will unlock all the mysteries of this case...especially the identity of the person or company who THE KRUEZER believes actually put out a contract to terminate the late Cobra Video producer, BRYAN KOCIS, a conspiracy which used 2 Virginia Beach escorts who were deeply in debt as all-too-convenient patsies. RESEARCHING...

THE KRUEZER is pursuing this shocking development with full cyberforensic resources and talking with many people. DEVELOPING...

Cuadra reportedly on prescription Abilify med to cope with anticipated "principal killer" accusation

2008-01-23T10:40:00.000-05:00

PROSECUTORS IN KOCIS-CUADRA-KEREKES CASE PLAY MIND GAMES WITH THE DEFENSE AS HARLOW IS ALLEGEDLY PRESCRIBED "ABILIFY" MED

Everything now depends on the January 30th hearing, as my sources inform me that both defendants Harlow Cuadra and Joseph Kerekes are in a "state of constant agitation and high anxiety" and that the psychotropic prescription drug "Abilify" may have been prescribed for Harlow Cuadra to "modify his increasingly erratic and depressive mood swings" according to my sources.

No doubt it's increasingly dawning on him that his former boyfriend Kerekes has already pointed the finger at him as being the so-called "principal killer" and thus the primary target of prosecutors for the execution gurney.

Says the Times-Leader in this revealing excerpt on January 22:

http://www.timesleader.com/news/20080123_23kerekes_dw_ART.html

Prosecutors are seeking the death penalty for both suspects.

One of Kerekes’ attorneys, Mark Bufalino, had previously asked a judge to force prosecutors to reveal whether they believe Kerekes was the principal or accomplice. Bufalino needs to know, he said, because he believes it is legal to only seek the death penalty for a principal killer.
If prosecutors do not believe Kerekes is the principal killer, Bufalino indicated he could ask that prosecutors be barred from seeking the death penalty for Kerekes.

Luzerne County Assistant District Attorney Mike Melnick has said evidence in the case “fully suggests” both suspects could be principals in the case.

And in the court papers filed Tuesday by a team of prosecutors, they said they should not have to reveal who they believe is the principal killer and accomplice because “different inferences might reasonably be drawn from the evidence as to who nearly decapitated Mr. Kocis.” It should be a jury’s job, the prosecutors said, to determine principal and accomplice.

Court of Common Pleas Judge Peter Paul Olszewski Jr. will decide after a Jan. 30 hearing.

New "Reversible Error" Precedent provides Judicial Hope for Harlow Cuadra and Joe Kerekes

2007-10-28T23:44:00.000-04:00

Harlow Cuadra has been handed yet more grounds to claim "reversal error" by Luzerne County President Judge Mark Ciavarella assigning one of Bryan Kocis' former lawyers as Cuadra's counsel at the recent preliminary hearing.

New York Federal Judge Kaplan had already provided Cuadra with the grounds to claim that he and Kerekes were denied their right to legal counsel when Judge Kaplan dismissed all criminal charges against former KPMG employees citing the fact that Federal Prosecutors prevented the defendants from being able to afford the legal counsel of their choice.

Now, Judge Kaplan has issued an order holding that a criminal defendant must specifically WAIVE his right to "conflict free representation", that a Judge cannot merely unilaterally decide that an attorney's conflict of interest is not prejudicial to the defendant.

In other words, by the decision of a Federal Judge in New York on a similar "constitutional right issue", Harlow Cuadra must specifically WAIVE his right to "conflict free representation" in order for one of Bryan Kocis' former lawyers (Jonathan Blum) to continue as Harlow's lawyer.

At this point, The Kruezer believes that FRIENDS OF Harlow Cuadra and Joseph Kerekes who were holding back on their contributions to the Legal Defense Fund for Cuadra and Kerekes will now act to ensure that Private Attorneys file appeals for Cuadra and Kerekes to get all charges against Cuadra and Kerekes dismissed as a result of judicial errors by Luzerne County.

U.S. Senator, Boybatter, and Dead Escort Nexus: Expert Witness to Examine New Possibly Exculpatory Forensics in Penn. vs. Cuadra and Kerekes case

2007-10-22T22:17:00.000-04:00

Harlow Cuadra will be represented by a public defender whose office has few resources and a very small likelihood of presenting an effective defense in the almost entirely circumstantial case against Cuadra.

The others who were involved in this seem to have lost interest or even turned against Harlow, but not so with Damon and myself. We have found startling new information involving a Washington DC escort who was recently found dead - possibly murdered.

This escort spoke in detailed and apparently truthful terms about his best known client, a deeply closeted U.S. Senator with links to the Norfolk, VA naval base. Harlow Cuadra and Joe Kerekes were based in Norfolk and ran both their gay video website Boybatter.com and their escorting enterprise Norfolk Companions from there, so it's very possible - even likely - their or their affiliated escorts' clientele included high Government officials.

The escort was found dead under mysterious circumstances last month in Washington, DC.
He was connected with the man primarily oriented in taking over the Boybatter website.
What he left behind "in case something happens to me" may be very good news for Harlow's defense - IF it can be properly vetted by an expert in forensics.

Unfortunately such testing won't be possible for Harlow or his family but it MIGHT be possible for us to arrange - with some help.

According to the forensic examiner with whom we spoke - who would make a great expert witness for Harlow's defense if his fee can be assured - it will cost about $4,000 to test the evidence in question and write a suitable report.

If the results show what we believe they will indicate, Harlow Cuadra's chances for either acquittal or a light sentence will increase by orders of magnitude.

Who can help with this? Never mind the penny ante material such as the faux "Chinchilla" jacket on EBay, this is important new information that just might be exculpatory for Harlow.

If reasonable assistance is provided, we'll have the testing done and a report prepared for submission into evidence as a key Defense item.

Contact me or Damon directly if you can help. We're notifying Harlow and his P.D. about this.

Damon Kruezer the Only Reporter to Accurately Predict Death Penalty in Kocis Murder Case 36 Hours Before DA Announcement

2007-10-02T13:08:00.000-04:00

THE KRUEZER's PREDICTION FULFILLED, our sources verified: EXECUTIONER's NEEDLES PLANNED FOR HARLOW and JOE

NEW YORK CITY - Special Report by Damon Kruezer with contribution by Marc Holstrom, 12:11 AM, October 2, 2007

KRUEZER AT NIGHT was the first - and ONLY - reporter to explicitly predict that the death penalty would be sought 36 hours ago based on direct sourcing from someone close to the D.A.'s office and our own analysis of probability. Unfortunately for Harlow and Joe, we were correct.
Our critics are now eating a healthy portion of crow pie.

As THE KRUEZER predicted almost 36 hours ago, the death penalty will be sought against Harlow Cuadra and Joseph Kerekes, as was announced shortly before 6:00 PM ET Monday. We did not jump to announce this since anyone with a feed to the Citizens Voice or other Pennsylvania or regional media would get the news. We waited until now, just after midnight in New York City, to share our analysis and alternative theory of the crime. Many of my rivals scoffed and doubted about my prediction about the death penalty, including most notably the arrogant PC and KM, the chronically erratic Elm, the delusionary DeWayne, and the falsely elitist and vacuously self-described "monster" Dexx Jones and his sock puppets such as the sycophantic studio tool Mark Adams, but the time has now come to leave such personal considerations aside in view of the fact that Bitchless Blog and BB were the ONLY ones to follow my line of thinking and talk about how likely the death penalty would be sought.

Now, you all can see just how accurate I and my sources are when I talked about how the D.A. had just about decided to seek "the prick of the executioner's needle" 36 hours ago. Now, Marc and I and our network will focus like a laser beam on this case and cast aside personality politics and macho posturing...because this is now literally life or death:

www.citizensvoice.com/site/news.cfm?newsid=18872794&BRD=2259&PAG=461&dept_id=618523&rfi=6

ALTERNATIVE THEORY OF THE CASE: MOTIVE, MEANS, and OPPORTUNITY TO EMPLOY CUADRA AND KEREKES AS ALL TOO CONVENIENT FALL GUYS BY APPEALING TO THEIR VANITY AND AMBITION

THE KRUEZER now gives you his alternative theory of the Kocis-Cuadra-Kerekes murder case in light of this soul-wrenching development and new information we have developed in our own forensic and biographical research. May it help the wrongly accused Cuadra and Kerekes.
$5,000 is a lot of money but it was well spent on a private detective who knows his stuff.
New information developed by this P.I. and by my own research into the history, background and behavior patterns of Robert Wagner aka Aaron Phelps, combined with my pattern analysis of 3 former Norfolk Companions escorts who have been induced, or decided, to turn against their former friends, HARLOW CUADRA and JOSEPH KEREKES, have resulted in a major change of opinion about the central elements of this murder case that has rocked the gay subculture and may well have reverberations all the way to Capitol Hill in Washington.
Despite the unfortunate lack of truth telling about the existence of the Norfolk Companions client list - which THE KRUEZER has stated is a fact all along, but which Harlow Cuadra (or his ghostwriter) specifically denied a few weeks ago - and despite the "war of the bloggers" in which who was getting the most attention or praise for their perceived "accuracy" seemed to be more important than the guilt or innocence of two men about to find out if they would face the death penalty - THE KRUEZER believes that justice for the victim, BRYAN KOCIS, as well as for the defendants will be served without histrionics, drama, or the buffeting of competing egos.
It is therefore incumbent upon me as "a reporter deeply involved in this case from the beginning" - as Michael Gross of OUT magazine called me before we had a sharp disagreement over the tone and direction of his article - to tell you, my readers, friends and clients precisely WHY the forms of things unknown - previously hidden or obscured by deliberate intent - now need to be revealed in the clear and focused light of a passion for justice in this matter that is NOT ego or monetarily driven.

Here is my alternative theory of the case. Bad as the circumstantial evidence against Cuadra and Kerekes appears, it's by no means the entirety of the story, nor is it the only prism through which the evidence so far can be viewed.

Therefore, without saying too much, and without any intent whatsoever to jeapordize the newly urgent legal strategies being evolved by Cuadra's and Kerekes' defense teams, THE KRUEZER believes that the duo of Cuadra and Kerekes are guilty of immature behavior, foolish decisions, false braggadocio, and a financially reckless lifestyle that left them hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt BEFORE their arrests.

But I do NOT believe either Cuadra or Kerekes are guilty of murder, arson, thievery or abuse of a corpse.

Here's why:

An independent P.I. has come up with extenuating information regarding particular facts and circumstances concerning both the whereabouts and specific actions of Harlow Cuadra and Joseph Kerekes on January 23 and 24, 2007 (the day of the murder).
This will be introduced at trial. I have been asked not to say anything further about this aspect at this time.

After due diligence research and forensic investigation, with results compared with those attained by a private investigator paid $5,000 by someone you all know, it is KRUEZER AT NIGHT's considered opinion that former Kocis intimate friend/model/business associate Robert Wagner whose jealousy is such, and his knowledge of the Kocis house was such, that he conspired with a 3rd party to take out a contract on Bryan Kocis, who owed a very large amount of money to many people and wasn't paying it back.

Furthermore, in the Kruezer view, at the preliminary hearing Wagner falsely testified that his relationship with Kocis was business only when in fact it was both personal and intimate. Kocis' investors took huge losses when "Every Poolboy's Dream" among other Cobra titles was summarily pulled from retail sale or distribution after Brent Corrigan claimed he was underage. It is this underlying mountainous debt owed by Kocis to at least 4 investors, combined with what we believe is obsessive and pathological jealousy-fueled anger and resentment at his "Daddy" Bryan Kocis who cast him aside in favor of Brent Corrigan and even "Danny Moilin" aka Harlow Cuadra, that together formed the nucleus of the lethal conspiracy to murder Bryan Kocis after deliberately enticing Cuadra and Kerekes into the ring of darkness through the medium of 2 other individuals who may or may not have had a clear idea of the ultimate goal, but were known to be in general sympathy with the concept of removing Kocis from their lives, legally if not literally.

KRUEZER AT NIGHT believes the Defense will focus on one of these 2 individuals in withering cross-examination.

We allege that Harlow and Joe were deliberately enticed to come to PA by Wagner and his contract killer, who set them up as fall guys. The contract killer is from New York City and is known to the NYPD as a result of some misdemeanor charges, but KRUEZER AT NIGHT has traced his movements in the past 5 years and we have noted - with a chill in our hearts - that where this man goes, sudden death often explained as an accident or suicide follows. A total of 4 mysterious deaths have been closely associated with this person of interest, who invariably moves out of the apartment building or house or trailer park within a month or two of the termination of his target. Although having no visible means of support, KRUEZER AT NIGHT has learned he is a computer expert and antique car fancier well versed in hijacking wireless routers and hacking email databases, and KRUEZER AT NIGHT believes he conspired with several former Norfolk Companions escorts after the murder giving them "hush money" in exchange for incriminating Cuadra and Kerekes but with the real goal being to protect two highly placed Washington politicians who had used the services of Norfolk Companions on several occasions.

The conspirator, hitman, and betrayers all took advantage of Cuadra and Kerekes' naivete, greed, vanity and ambition, using Brent Corrigan as the carrot to lure and entice them into the trap and then springing the trap the night of January 24, 2007 after sufficient circumstantial evidence had been manufactured or carefully planted where investigators would be sure to find it.

This combined with Cuadra's and Kerekes' attitude of invincibility and their dangerous assumption that none of their "dudes" would ever turn on them any more than Cuadra's flirtatious relationship with Corrigan would sour, ultimately lead to not only their loss of all money, property and freedom, but now the daunting prospect of the loss of their actual lives as the D.A. pursues the death penalty against both defendants.

KRUEZER AT NIGHT was the first - and ONLY - reporter to explicitly predict this 36 hours ago based on direct sourcing from someone close to the D.A.'s office and our own analysis of probability.

From this point on KRUEZER AT NIGHT will devote ourselves to helping the wrongly accused CUADRA and KEREKES, and let bygones be bygones and forgive and forget whatever may need to be forgiven and forgotten on both sides. Likewise the petty and childish allegations and accusations by our plainly jealous and anti-competitive rivals.

This isn't about who's "right" or "legitimate" or who talks with Harlow or Joe any more, this is about 2 more deaths - judicially mandated, and committed in the name of the people of Pennsylvania - all too likely to be added to the pain, devastation and destruction caused by the brutal and premeditated murder of Bryan Kocis, the post mortem mutilation of his body, and the arson and thievery at his house so artfully designed to make it appear that CUADRA and KEREKES were responsible.

They are not. They were deliberately placed at the time and location to serve the purpose of Bryan Kocis' stone cold killers, which are the one who conceived, planned and hired for it, the actual contract killer who so far has flown under the radar of all except KRUEZER AT NIGHT and the one who hired him, and the outraged investors who like King Henry of England in reference to Becket said, "who will deal with Bryan Kocis for us and make him pay for ripping us off?"

These elements combined to form the perfect murderous storm, and to shift the blame to 2 young, immature, and very foolish men who lacked the ability to foresee what they were being set up for. And that is being "patsies", fall guys, the sacrificial lambs at the slaughter the D.A. will strongly push for and smugly pronounce "justice has been served" when and if the guilty verdicts are read out to a hushed Luzerne County courtroom in February or March 2008.
In this way, THE KRUEZER has given form to the things unknown until now, and made the ring of darkness illuminated so that discerning readers and legal operatives may follow the trail we have blazed for you.

Now Marc, Zenoble and I and all of Harlow and Joe's true friends and family must focus on helping to save the lives of Harlow Cuadra and Joe Kerekes, and this I will do as long as it takes to secure their freedom and absolution.

Cuadra admits Kruezer is correct about big name Escort Client List

2007-09-28T02:15:00.001-04:00

Accused murderer Harlow Cuadra finally admitted on his blog last night what our colleague Damon Kruezer has been saying all along: That there is a client list with some very big names deriving from his operation of the Norfolk Companions escort service with his partner, co-defendant Joe Kerekes.

Previously Cuadra stated as a fact to Kruezer and others that some of Norfolk Companions clients included a closeted Republican senator and a cabinet secretary, among others.

No one believed him at the time, and they came down on Kruezer when he said:

"there is an encrypted client list on a USB key drive with some names and sexual specialties that will make Senator Craig look positively minor by comparison."

Should we believe Cuadra now about the client list - which he offers for auction at www.harlowcuadraonline.com?

Should those who trash talked about Kruezer for saying there WAS a client list apologize and retract their hateful comments?

Readers, you be the judge.

The Kruezer reveals new info about Harlow's House-Kerekes' parents and Neutered KM and PC

2007-09-17T14:59:00.000-04:00

The Kruezer reports that PC and KM of handjtrial have been publicly neutered and rendered irrelevant as a result of them publicly compromising their insider source in Virginia. The Pathetic PC and KM responded to The Kruezer's Report by trying to lay claim to "insider information" on Joseph Kerekes' parents selling their home in Virginia. Poor Poor PC and KM are clearly trying to claw they way back up to relevant from their present "laughing stock status".

Rule #1 of Journalism, only an idiot publicly compromises an insider source. Now that PC and KM have lead "enquiring minds" straight to a certain prosecutor's office in Virginia, PC and KM have been CUT OFF from the flow of insider info. PC and KM are now just two more insignificant tools running a SPAM BLOG.

Good luck PC and KM voting to "sink" The Kruezer's and other's reports while voting to "raise" yours on Netscape! No wonder The Kruezer turned down your offer to appear on your blog, why should he bother with a pair of two bit wanna-be's who didn't even have the decency to insist that EVERYONE demanding "proof" from The Kruezer should disclose their true and verifiable identity? Damon doesn't put out unless he knows who he's putting out for, honey chile!

BIG NEWS: The Kruezer says for us to look for Joseph Kerekes' parents to very likely move into the Virginia Beach home of Cuadra and Kerekes as "renters" so that the house can be sold later above market value after the current housing crisis is over. Damon says that Kerekes' parents will move into H & J's home in VB or, if there's too much publicity, they will move to the sunny state of Florida, a state where H & J allegedly bought a Condo back in February prior to their arrest.

The Kruezer is getting the records for the Condo, which no one else has thought of doing. Even that stupido Elm should have thought of it but didn't.

So...Keep boxing with that "Catch 22 Tar Baby" PC and KM, there is always room for two more sideshow freaks on the Internet. The Catch 22 of Journalism is that you can't publicly brag about having an insider source and then try to go back to that Insider Source for more info. But, since PC and KM are clearly not Journalists, Damon always expected them to EXPLODE like the Hindenburg into a big flaming ball of pathetic-ness...EXACTLY as they now have done.

Look for Elm to meet a similar fate as he is unmasked as the pathetic wanna-be trading on Damon's name and fame as he so obviously is with all those fake impersonation blogs and their incredibly boring, "it's true cuz I say so" fact-free rants.

The Kruezer is the one who gets the news that's fit to print and all the gossip you want to know, and now he's a first rate crime reporter as well. Jealous queens may now clutch their pearls and hatch some new hare-brained scheme to try and make him look bad, but he's way, way ahead of them all now and traveling at warp speed to his next Bombshell revelation that we think will have EVERYONE buzzing again. Keep on Kruezin', Damon!

Trademark Attorney weighs in on "Brent Corrigan" Trademark Issues

2007-09-16T00:38:00.000-04:00

BRENT CORRIGAN. The name for which at least one and possibly as many as 4 men have died...with the fate of 2 more up in the air. According to our consulting trademark attorney, the trademarkability of "Brent Corrigan" and its resultant commercial value is null and void, and the current market value of the name is...well, you know.

For some general information regarding the limited value of state registrations, see this article: http://www.whitelawfirm.com/stateregistrations.html

For a review of the complete file of the United States Patent and Trademark Office for the Cobra application for "Brent Corrigan" click here: http://portal.uspto.gov/external/portal/tow?SRCH=Y&isSubmitted=true&details=&SELECT=US+Serial+No&TEXT=78697319

NOTE: Quite a few interesting things in the above. Read it carefully.

For current status information regarding the federal "Brent Corrigan" application at any time, click here: http://tarr.uspto.gov/servlet/tarr?regser=serial&entry=78697319

Bryan had/has a federal application pending for registration of the mark which has NOT been granted. It was prepared and filed on his own, without an attorney's advice, and he did not complete the application properly. Moreover, the name, Brent Corrigan is not eligible for protection as a federal trademark, because names of performers are not trademarkable -- to get a trademark, a designation must be used as a mark on products, and to protect names that appear on videos, there have to be a series of videos using that name to identify the series, not just a performer in the videos. The USPTO denied the application initially, because Kocis did not meet the series requirement, and his application was prepared improperly.

Since then, Cobra started printing "A Brent Corrigan Series" on their videos with Brent in them, and amended the trademark application to indicate that there was a series, in compliance with the statute. If this amendment is successful, the mark may be published for opposition and at that point, interested parties may oppose the application for registration.

In sum, Kocis/Cobra has no federal trademark in the Brent Corrigan name, and I sincerely doubt they ever will -- if an opposition is filed, it would win.

Second, on the Pennsylvania state trademark registration -- state registrations are not worth the paper they are written on, and do not confer any substantive trademark rights. That is because federal trademark rights supercede state rights, and state Secretaries of State do not perform federal and common law searches before granting a state registration. Anyone who files and pays 50 bucks can get a state registration and they are therefore meaningless.

The Pennsylvania trademark registration is not even enforceable in Pennsylvania, and is definitely not enforceable anywhere outside the state.

Senator McConnell's DD-214 discharge papers and the Kruezer haters

2007-09-10T12:48:00.000-04:00

The haters and their hidden agenda are at it again. Now someone calling himself SethJ seeks to bring down Sen. McConnell's wrath on Damon yet Damon has only reported what's in the public record along with his informed opinion. McConnell's DD-214 discharge papers are being retrieved from what we hear and once the truth of McConnell's departure from the service is revealed, he's likely going to have a lot more to worry about than Damon.

Can we say "Larry Craig part 2"??

We are seeing a concerted attempt to muzzle us and Damon Kruezer especially by people who claim to be in the right who refuse to identify themselves. Their latest tactic is to write to Senator Mitch McConnell asking his office to "stop" Damon, although exactly what they try to stop him from doing is unclear.

We're also wondering what really transpired - and was mailed - by and to Harlow Cuadra and Damon since Harlow is talking so much about Damon. Damon has shown us a small package with a BoyBatter/Virginia return address so you tell us what's in there. The box is very small only 3 x 3 inches, so it's not a DVD.

Here is our response to the haters.

We think SethJ and Elm are making Damon an even bigger target. We see nothing actionable by Damon in expressing his views based on his sources which he obviously has, including Harlow Cuadra who has finally admitted to the interview the haters denied ever occurred. Who knows what Harlow and Joe may have said in their letters to Damon, or what was sent to him on May 14th?

Looking at SethJ's vitriol we see only "according to me's" by people who refuse to identify themselves publicly in contrast to Damon's whois which is plain to see. As to the housing issue that was a negotiated settlement that resulted in many months of free rent by a housing authority with a very shaky case, so the spin SethJ is putting on it is not accurate. Damon has said his mother is living in a condo he acquired for her, and why not with all the offers he has received.

If people like SethJ or Elm want to be taken seriously they should reveal their identities, explain what their personal stake in all of this is, and interview Damon and post it unedited on their sites.

Unless and until they do that, they come across as obsessive-compulsive haters with a hidden agenda and likely being paid to do what they're doing.

By whom is the real question.

Harlow Cuadra confirms Damon Kruezer interview from jail

2007-09-10T11:22:00.000-04:00

An open letter from us to accused murderer HARLOW CUADRA, in response to Harlow's jailhouse admission he and his partner Joe Kerekes did talk with Damon on May 14th despite some people in the blogosphere insisting for weeks that no such thing had happened.

We address Harlow as "Belly", which is a special nickname used by people on close personal terms with Harlow.

Dear Belly,

So who is actually writing your blog now? It's signed hrc2 when in fact there is only one hrc.

Spin control about Damon is interesting considering the mouthpieces that have been saying for weeks that there was no interview at all, or that he misrepresented himself as being with MTV. Now you admit there was an interview and say nothing about him and MTV, but try to spin it the way you want it.

Also notable is the way your blog is mostly talking directly to Damon or about Damon. He really made an impact on you didn't he?

He is telling many people that he cares about you Harlow and will come through for you at the trial with something he has.

We think he believes the best deal you will get is for you to serve a minimum sentence as an accessory after the fact because that is the situation.

Do you think he's lying or telling the truth?

As you say, don't be too quick to judge just because Joe and Ree messed things up with the money...they did you know Belly.

One last thing: It's not really Joe writing his blog you know. It's that confused old man as BB calls him. Another impersonation although Damon is grateful for all the publicity he's getting him.

Hang in there Belly. Damon talks about you every day but he doesn't think much of Joe.

How Jason Drake and Joe Kerekes Brought Down the Republic

2007-09-07T02:20:00.000-04:00

See Kruezer at Night's website update for information we have developed connecting killer and suicide ex-Marine Jason Drake with congressman Tom Feeney, a Strategum Group/Ralph Gonzalez client.

Feeney was at Gonzalez' side during the 2004 election that was remarkable for having key exit polls giving the win to Kerry - and then suddenly changing over to Bush by 10% or more in the final hours. Such a thing has never happened before or since. Feeney was implicated in having the software written that could - and in our opinion, DID - throw the election to Bush.

Now do we see just how far this thing actually reaches? Jason Drake helped Feeney and Gonzalez bring down the Republic - and that's why Gonzalez had to die when he had a change of heart and was going to provide incriminating evidence on Feeney and others, according to our sources.

Who was the perfectly programmed tool to do this? None other than self-loathing closeted gay ex Marine Jason Robert Drake, who did indeed work for Harlow Cuadra's Norfolk Companions off and on in 2005-2006 under 2 different aliases.

Harlow and Joe are accessories and patsies in Bryan Kocis' murder in our view, but the actual killer in my opinion is Jason Robert Drake, ex-USMC...now safely dead in an orgy of murder and suicide neither the Orlando police nor the mainstream media show any inclination to aggressively pursue.

But thank God the police ARE actively pursuing toe tapping senators in men's rooms, THAT is the real danger to our society, not a quadruplet of death that reaches to the very highest echelons of the U.S. government.

Bryan Kocis Attorneys and Who's Running Cobra Now

2007-09-06T09:49:00.001-04:00

Bryan Kocis' primary attorney, Al Flora, is in our view not the sharpest knife in the drawer. Rather, he's a small-town sole practitioner who specializes in two-bit criminal defense, and was way out of his league with the case against Sean Lockhart.

One of our sources saw at least one letter he drafted on the matter and heard about several others, and the guy definitely seemed like a bit of a dimwit, which is why Bryan Kocis hired Sean Macias to pursue the Sean matter.

But Bryan's sister apparently got rid of Macias and is relying again on Flora. Macias is known to some as an alleged sleazebag, but supposedly does know something about 2257 and other adult industry law, while Flora knows nothing about it.

So it's possible that Bryan's sister is just completely ignorant about the necessity of recordkeeping, or maybe she knows and just doesn't care and figures she'll pin everything on her dead brother if there's ever a problem. We shall see.

JOSEPH KEREKES LIES FROM PRISON

2007-09-05T03:39:00.000-04:00

The "Angel of Truth" over at www.harlowcuadraonline.com asked us to post this after Ree discovered an obvious impersonator posting on Harlow's blog. She is outraged and we don't blame her. Whether it's really Joe Kerekes posting or not, it's on his blog and in his name, so he must take responsibility for this latest volley in the "war of the bloggers" that's actually all about ad revenue and product placement. Here's what Ree has to say.

I doubt if what is written in Joe Kerekes blog is what has actually been submitted for posting. The man allegedly posting, Damon, is an excellent speller and always writes with perfect grammar. Yet there are sections there that were obviously edited or added to that are not his style at all. I also don't believe he misrepresented himself at all, Joe knew who he was when he and Harlow spoke with him as Joe admitted before.

Also its been made known to several attorneys just where the escrow account is and how much is in it. Nothing is missing, he is keeping it to save Joe's and Harlow's tight little asses altho I doubt Joe deserves it.

Interesting how Joe and his mouthpiece first denied he had ever had any 5,000 dollars for his defense, now Joe admits he did have it and I believe still does.

Get your story str8 Joe or as Harlow is telling various people, "I will not cry when he's gone". What does that mean?Is Harlow sick of your lies too?

So spout your nonsense Joe if this is really Joe writing the blog at all. Fact remains you spoke with who you spoke with the day before the arrests, he was the first to post your mailing addresses in jail, and you sent him letters including the demand for $3000 for full access. Signed, sealed and postmarked. I know this and so do the defense team.

Truth is Joe, he has gotten a whole new career aspect out of this and he's been well compensated, so your attempts to lie and distort are too little, too late to make any difference.
That is all i have to say.

Signed, Ree

Yves Mignon Speaks: El Mysterio Impersonations

2007-09-04T13:50:00.000-04:00

THE FINAL WORD ON EL MYSTERIO's Malicious and Pathetic Impersonations

The real Yves Mignon (not ELM) said on 9/04/07 on BB's Blog "A Murder is Announced"...that rotten bitch ELM stole my identity and started posting under my name from Portland of all God-forsaken places (LOLOLOL). What a LOSER! I checked with my lawyers, that (Elm's conduct in regards to our posting names) in and of itself is not a crime. And even if it was actionable, who wants to sue some meaningless and penniless old blogger posting images of his profile and butt cheeks from ages ago. I'm sure he's doctoring the photos, since he's such a LIAR about everything else. And even if that was his current profile and butt cheeks, who cares? He's such a deceitful, controlling and bitter old lunatic, that I can't believe any respectable gay man would have sex with him, even Larry Craig in a toilet stall!

Sean Lockhart helped Bryan Kocis scan in all the Cobra info

2007-09-03T21:04:00.000-04:00

Just called Damon K. in the Big Apple and got him to talk for a few minutes. He came out with 2 things that if verified could blow this case wide open - and put Sean Lockhart on the stand as a hostile witness. Here is what he said.

"I know that while Sean Lockhart was staying with Bryan Kocis in the summer of 2004, Bryan was in the process of scanning all the records and converting everything to electronic, and Sean was helping him. I also know that for a long time, the custodian of records address for Cobra was actually some hair salon where a female friend of Bryan's worked."

KEYWORDS "converting everything to electronic" and "Sean was helping him".

The whole thing about who knew what and when, and above all the whereabouts and format of the 2257 records...the answer is in what Kruezer told me. Obviously Sean told Grant Roy what he had helped to scan in, and knew about the Custodian of Records whereabouts.

Will Lockhart testify to this - willingly or as a hostile witness? The truth will be told. And someone is very likely to be indicted for perjury if this truth is NOT told accurately, under oath.

What do you think?

Not Too Blue: The 6 Degrees of Harlow R. Cuadra and Jason R. Drake

2007-09-02T22:13:00.000-04:00

We're fascinated by the many apparent coincidences and happenstances that permeate daily life, especially of the "six degrees" of association and linkage kind. Today, our ongoing forensic research has revealed some "coincidences" and "random links" that may signify far more if in fact they're not coincidences or random links at all. Here are the facts.

Harlow Raymond Cuadra lived in Florida until 2002, about 90 miles from Orlando, the scene of last week's double murder and suicide involving the Republican consultants and the former Marine, Jason R. Drake, their killer who committed suicide. This Harlow R. Cuadra who lived in Florida was born in the same month and year as the man in jail in Pennsylvania for the murder of Bryan Kocis.

Interestingly, several Florida addresses from the first 5 years of this decade for a Jason R. Drake put him as close as 25 miles from street addresses for Harlow R. Cuadra.

Even more intriguing, there are also Florida addresses in the same area as Harlow Cuadra for a Joseph Kerekes whose age at the time corresponds to the Joe Kerekes jailed in Pennsylvania.

Jason R. Drake was reportedly trying to get one of the Republican consultants to contribute major funds for Harlow Cuadra's defense owing to a connection he had made that resulted in one of the Republican bigwigs being a Norfolk Companions (Harlow's escorting front) client.

Coincidence? Happenstance? Or a web of connections that gets darker and deeper the more forensic research we do?

You be the judge. We'll keep digging, as the family of one of the defendants has hired us to do.
And we'll try not to get too Blue.

Internet Commingling and Case Law Precedent: GOOD for the Defense

2007-08-31T15:01:00.000-04:00

Based on the settled case law of Pennsylvania vs Weakley and Selenski in Luzerne County, Joseph Kerekes now has a MUCH stronger legal precedent for separating his trial from that of Harlow Cuadra because Cuadra clearly incriminates Kerekes on TWO major segments of the Blacks Beach tapes in cleverly phrased questions asked by SEAN LOCKHART that in our opinion were literally placed in his mouth by agents.

Of course separate trials mean MUCH more difficulty in gaining convictions since with so much weight placed on the Blacks Beach tapes ostentatiously referred to by GRANT ROY at the preliminary hearing - but not played - such critical evidence could not be used against Harlow unless Joe testifies against Harlow at Harlow's trial (and vice versa).

Significantly, we have learned much emphasis is to be placed on the "tone" and "context", i.e. the WAY Harlow Cuadra said certain things on the Blacks Beach tapes, not so much WHAT he said.

In all fairness this could be VERY major to the jury since everyone has said things in a tone, or with a look, that mean something MUCH different than the actual words. With Cuadra so enamored of Lockhart at the time, LOOK FOR MAJOR EMPHASIS BY THE DEFENSE ON THIS ASPECT OF CONVERSATION, BODY LANGUAGE, AND TONE OF VOICE.

The fact that KRUEZER AT NIGHT has ALSO learned the defense is preparing to "grill SEAN LOCKHART within an inch of his life" makes the credibility and usefulness of LOCKHART on the witness stand for the prosecution that much more questionable.

And there's YET ANOTHER major IMPEDIMENT to effective prosecution "beyond a reasonable doubt": As the Bitchless Blog correctly points out (thank you Mr. Everhard),
"it is impossible for anyone to know what internet activity was done by Joe and what internet activity was done by Harlow. Harlow Cuadra and Joseph Kerekes appear to have used the same computers and posted stuff on the net using each other's names and other aliases..."

This is the "INTERNET COMMINGLING" sources close to the case have told us about. It makes it almost impossible to prove which of the defendants said, did or sent whatever at any specific date and time due to their totally commingled and shared Internet access including the WAN air card.

RESULT: Things are looking more rosy for the Defense...IF they pursue and obtain SEPARATE TRIALS and manage to make SEAN LOCKHART look like a scheming, opportunistic sociopath on the witness stand.

Of course the SEAN LOCKHART so many know and love isn't ANYTHING like that, he's simply a sweet young guy who got taken advantage of by the ALLEGEDLY evil monster BRYAN KOCIS and is now flying right thanks to GRANT ROY.

Right? That's ONE version according to CAMP CORRIGAN. But certainly not the only one - or necessarily the true one.

STAY TUNED as we see what Harlow and Joe say about this in their blogs...or at least those who are writing their blogs for them say.

Time to Dig Deeper and go beyond the miasma of disinformation

2007-08-28T06:43:00.000-04:00

Welcome to the launch of the new Bicoastal Investigations blog focusing on the East and West Coast connections of the principals involved in the Bryan Kocis - Harlow Cuadra murder case now going forward in Pennsylvania. This is the one blog where everything that's appropriate and relevant to publish about this fascinating case including computer and other forensic material will be made known. We don't have an axe to grind like the other bloggers on this subject, and we don't intend to indulge in personality politics, although we will defend ourselves if attacked. We also promise not to censor or delete your comments even if highly critical, but we draw the line at personal attacks or those trying to represent their personal opinion as documented fact.

Diversity of opinion is welcome, but if you allege something to be factual, be prepared to back it up. The identities of well known persons will be vetted and unlike other bloggers, we will not allow obvious impersonators whose game is to distract attention away from those truly deserving of our investigative attentions.

One of the three men running this site and contributing to it is a licensed private investigator whose screen name is Zenoble and that is why when you see that name, you will know it is the collective opinion of all 3 of us.

You should be aware there is a deliberate attempt at disinformation from some quarters with agendas that can only be guessed at. Rest assured we will put that out there as soon as we become aware of it.

We respect your intelligence which is why this blog is not about telling you what you should think, but allowing you to form your own judgments using this blog as a primary source of analysis, commentary and discussion.

Let's get started!
