She said MB wanted to campaign the horse himself, she said no, and he had the horse shipped to Florida without her knowledge and consent.
On one occasion well prior to 2019, when someone on COTH asked about high level dressage trainers in NJ, and Barisone’s name came up, she posted a brief post with no details, but recommended avoiding Barisone because in her experience he was “abusive” and “dishonest”.
Thanks for this - I wasn’t able to watch anything last week or this week and my life is too full of real stuff to bother to catch up by watching or reading everything here. It’s surprising that MHG or RC didn’t try to get him help, especially since they both testified that he was broken down emotionally, but the hay guy and MB’s attorney are the ones who actually cared enough to at least try to help. It’s not surprising that their opinions didn’t make much of a difference. If only someone who was more important to him had spoken up…
No, she deleted them after posting on the thread and being attacked by Eggbutt. She felt threatened and wanted off the thread altogether, and deleted everything.
Uh, no, she said she didn’t want to become a witness and deleted them. Eggbutt had nothing to do with it. Some of them had already been up for over a year.
I don’t know, you would have to ask the people who posted that. There are plenty of examples here; you just have to search for them. I would start with the people who post here all day every day first; I’m not going to name names because you probable know who they are.
The general reaction of the Eggbutt-led thread was very hostile to someone who had trained with Barisone and characterized him as abusive and dishonest. She left and deleted all posts.
Isn’t that the purpose of all the hostility to posters who voice opposing views? To chase them off? It’s quite effective.
