Joshua Wise & Stephen Boyd The Chris-Chan Extortionists - and the End of Evangelion

[CIA Nigger]

I don't remember ever seeming the videos if chris punching himself in the face and chris "punch" barb? Where those ever posted?

From what's implied in the post the vids were going to be used to blackmail him.

They had also forced Chris to record a series of videos to his Google Drive in which he beats himself, called himself names, gives a tour of his house (complete with a sleeping Barb), and "other" videos in order to use them as leverage against him in the future.

@The Captain, you mentioned that Null and Marvin are talking to Christine. How is she handling everything? You guys are doing great.

@Null and I talk to Chris daily at this point, usually just to check in and see if anything weird has come through his social media, phone, etc. We also occasionally check his accounts (@Null on Twitter/E-mails and me on Facebook) to see if anyone is trying to slip through.

Chris is doing fine, but his hotel plans for Bronycon fell through as the person who was sponsoring his lodging and food backed out last minute. Chris was upset but he's set up an alternative, but hopefully he can figure out a better lodging accommodation for the convention.

This is a bit unclear, did you actually convince him for a minute that CWCville isn't actually real? Or did you have to resort to telling him that they're hurting a "fake Sonichu" or something weird like that?

Fake Sonichu, Cwcville, etc.

 

[An Sionnach Seang]

good on you @Null !

what a pair of total fucking cunts - I hope they both get prostate cancer and suffer 20+ years of untreatable pain because of it

 

[Eryngium]

Does this mean they made Chris write those Facebook posts advocating incest and wanting to fuck barb, or was that pre- this whole fiasco?

Must have been a hell of a thing trying to brain-storm ways to use his delusions to help him.

You, Null and Marvin are absolute heroes and legends.

Probably the best you can do under the circumstances.

Check your PM.

It just occurred to me, almost every post in this thread yelling at the people who exploited chris, normally would receive a “angry on the internet” rating and shaming, but since the group mentality hatred is for some random group of people who harassed and exploited someone we’re defending,
We’re turning a blind eye to all the blind outrage, and turning aside levelheaded discussion.

MotI/Alog is only for unnecessary levels of anger/hatred. A mentally ill, mostless harmless man, who cannot manage his own life, was being extorted by people he thinks are looking out for him.

The anger is warranted. Especially if it shows these shitheads just how much they fucked up. And ARE fucked up.

Trust me, without @Marvin it would've been significantly harder. He genuinely has a strong grasp on how Chris operates.

You, Null and Marvin are absolute heroes and legends.

Thanks! Each of us have a ton of hours invested into this. The worst/hardest part for me was staying quiet for so long.

Probably the best you can do under the circumstances.

Check your PM.

Got it - thanks!

I suppose you’re right, it was a dumb post on part, probably my mind just projecting the hive mindset I see on reddit and the like.

 

[The Telomerase Truth]

That's another lol

not only were they scamming a exceptional man but they were stealing his money so they could buy toys

Yep, :autism: and degeneracy at its finest.

In all seriousness though, I really do hope these fuckers suffer.

They forced him to do it.

Am I correct in assuming that they were responsible for Chris snapping at everyone on Twitter a while back? Please forgive my ignorance, I haven't been paying too much attention to Chrus recently.

 

[Casshern]

This is absolutely horrible. Chris doesn’t need shit from a bunch of spastic freaks trying to make a quick buck. It was smart of Chris to keep the receipts, hopefully he can have some legal recourse for this.

That is, if people actually knew how to do their jobs. Otherwise nothing is going to get done, and yet again the scam artists will get off scott free.

Chris was having an identity crisis of sorts. While speaking to him on the phone he actually started randomly screaming at nothing while covering the receiver. He was understandably very upset that he had lost so much money and evidently felt the need to rage a bit.

 

[Polexia Aphrodisia]

Are the Discord transcripts between Chris and the speddy crew going to be released, or are they going to be kept sealed so as to not encourage more vveens, tryhards, and sped criminals?

Also, why now? This info has been teased (for want of a better word) by Marvin, Null, et al for a couple of weeks now, but it's just now out in full. Were things still in the middle of progression until now?

Please don't interpret this as hostility or criticism, I'm genuinely curious on both items.

I hate that a bunch of criminal assholes get away with scamming the vulnerable. It's disgusting.

 

[Zilortha]

Referring to @Null 's previous reply, he @Marvin and myself have the the dox for the involved parties.

Boyd even had a KF account - @NinFreakLan and was stupid enough to put his own birthday in there.

There was also another involved party (the Canadian) but all we have on them was an IP address and the KF account - @de_DEVIL_tails.

---

Basically, some people close to Chris contacted me in late April and told me that they thought Chris might be being manipulated and/or extorted, but he was being mum about things and wouldn't give them any information. I then contacted Chris and by playing into his delusion about the CPUs, ponys and other shit convinced him that I was trustworthy. He informed me about the top-secret Discord chat and after a little bit more discussion, gave me his new username and password. They had originally been talking to Chris using his CWCSonichu Discord, but sometime in late 2017/early 2018 convinced him to make a new account and to join a new private server in an attempt to avoid detection.

After Chris gave me access to his Discord, he then gave me access to every other account he owned in an attempt to scan for "viruses" - this would later prove instrumental towards building up the evidence that we have. When I logged onto the Discord I was appalled - the level of absurdity that these guys had gone to in order to take advantage of Chris was beyond belief. I saw the constant requests for money, threats, blackmail, etc. and Chris' responses and was simply floored. They were forcing Chris to post videos, Twitter statuses, etc. all in order to get their kicks in addition to the constant requests for money. They had also forced Chris to record a series of videos to his Google Drive in which he beats himself, called himself names, gives a tour of his house (complete with a sleeping Barb), and "other" videos in order to use them as leverage against him in the future. They even forced him record a two hour video of himself watching rather grotesque pornography as a "reaction" type video.

Essentially what went on for months was a series of "wash, rinse, repeat" in which Joshua Wise and Stephen Boyd threaten some random Sonichu/Pony/CPU character and Chris responds with videos, money, etc. in order to save them. At this point I have Chris messaging me multiple times a day and I'm very aware that I've witnessed a very serious crime and I did what anyone else would do in a situation like this that's over their head - I went to @Marvin with everything. He started coaching me on how to talk to Chris and had me stall (i.e. roleplay as Chris) in the Discord chat. He also recommended that I ask Chris to take a break from the internet for a week while we did this and he did. He started watching and catching up with all of the TV shows he was told he was "banned" from watching by Wise and Boyd.

During this time I continued talking with Wise and Boyd just enough so that they wouldn't get spooked. If they asked me something I didn't know, I would go to Marvin and/or Chris about it and reply accordingly. At one point they wanted Chris to post photographic evidence that he was indeed himself, writing a message on a dry erase board. I had Chris take said picture for me and then forwarded it to them, etc. Eventually, @Marvin built a script to rip the chat logs from Discord, which amounted to hundreds of pages of autistic debauchery in which these speds took advantage of Chris. When the script was finished and we had the chat logs and images we simply went silent on the Discord and a couple days later Wise and Boyd got freaked out and attempted to sanitize it, banning Chris from the channel and deleting every private message they had sent him one by one.

At the half-way point during all of this @Null had been brought into the picture and was being updated on our progress, what was being said, etc. He stuck his own neck out there and filed the reports with the FBI, Greene County Sheriff, called Boyd's mother, etc. Chris had also taken steps at this point towards assisting in any future investigation, including getting a new phone number, forwarding Null, Marvin and I ALL suspicious incoming messages, giving full access to his accounts, etc. He also collected all of the receipts from Food Lion, which he bought Amazon/GameStop gift cards with, and sent us screenshots of his GameStop order history in which he had sent PS Vitas, the Gwen statue, etc. to both Wise and Boyd's personal addresses.

And then everything just sort of settled down for several weeks. At one point Chris received some texts from either Boyd or Wise attempting to roleplay the Dark Tower with him, to which Chris replied, "I'll do it for $6,000!" and naturally, they didn't message again. Chris encountered some really serious monetary issues as a result of this, and at one point was two months behind on his mortgage payments with foreclosure looming. He now regularly speaks and is on friendly terms @Null, @Marvin and I as a result of all of this and we've been actively monitoring his accounts so that something like this doesn't (or is less likely) to happen again, as well as coaching Chris on how to better handle/protect his social media.

It's a shame that law enforcement hasn't done something with this as with everything we have it really is a slam dunk. At our insistence Chris did drop off things to the Greene County sheriff and sent us a copy of the report, but they didn't seem to do anything with it.

So, here we are today.. this should fill in some significant gaps that people have been scratching their head about as of late, i.e. Operation Kingsnake, the weird Twitter posts, videos, etc. earlier this year, the Null pony picture, blah blah blah.

Any questions - ask!

Were the only law enforcement agencies you guys contacted his local police and the FBI?

If so, I'd suggest that you report this to each offender's local police and the Virginia/Kentucky/California state Attorney General's office. Tell them about the crime and tell them you've contacted the other states/FBI with no one taking action.

If you've contacted the FBI, keep contacting them and ask them if they're doing anything about this. Tell them that you've contacted Chris' local police, the perp's states, etc. and nothing is being done.

I know it's easy for me to say, because I'm not involved, but you guys have to hound these agencies to ensure anything gets done.

Here's some info (that you guys probably already have but oh well): The link is to contact Virginia's cyber crime division, and the number is to contact Kentucky's dept. of criminal investigations (who handles cyber crime). Hope this helps.

I guess it's a bit of a dumb question, but is there anything we can do to help?

That's a great question for @Null and @Marvin honestly, but here's my crack at it.

If anyone in the forum has any genuine legal expertise, that would be helpful. Heck if you're on the Virginia, Kentucky or California State Bars that would be even better.

I'd also like to be able to see Chris enjoy Bronycon as his last con was fucked up (his own mistake, admittedly) and now he's having to cut corners financially to make Bronycon happen. I simply want to see him have a safe place to sleep and decent food to eat. I think he learned his lesson (as he's told us each dozens of times) as far as the kissing goes.

If he were 6k richer it wouldn't be an issue.
