Barisone Verdict Is In: Not Guilty By Reason of Insanity

[DownYonder]

@MHM

Meh. I have no idea what the situation is there. For all we know, the current barn owners may be frantically trying to get LK off the property.

Plus it sounds like LK does not work with that trainer at all, but works with somebody else who comes in from outside, or something like that?

My point was that if AB wants to continue teaching that trainer, she probably does not have to set foot on that specific property to do so. I would imagine she has lots of options.

LK doesn’t seem to have the type of personality that would settle for being trained by the Paradigm trainer who, despite his own talent and credentials, isn’t an Olympian or internationally renowned trainer - which she seems to think is the only type of trainer worthy of her. And that is probably why she was bringing in Ulf Moeller to give her lessons. She HAS to train with someone who would make MB and MHG melt with envy.

Who took over the effort to ruin LK? Did that fall to you, Eggbutt?

@CurrentlyHorseless So, when did you stop beating your dog?

But she’s not training with Ulf all the time.

If you recall LK’s posts, she had stated close association with upper-level riders/trainers on numerous occasions and even posted photos of herself with individuals who fit that description, thereby giving the illusion of successfully achieving “social victory” in the wake of the incident. In reality, said individuals merely came upon her in passing (or more likely, she stalked them socially or professionally) and she asked them to get photos together. By hanging out with such people or lurking in their proximity at the barn where they would be known to show up from time to time, she can reap the benefits of “awesomeness by association” on social media and twist it into “So-and-so and I had a deep and insightful conversation about Piaffe’s and Flying Changes and they have agreed to join my retinue of elite Dressage professionals who will help me ascend to my place as America’s Greatest Dressage Rider & Future Olympian!”.

Correct. So who gets the pleasure now that Ulf has gone back to Germany?

Just a guess.

They are probably so relieved not to have anything to do with her that they would be thrilled to have her train with anyone else.

Including Reiner Klimke if someone were able to raise him from the dead.

I just answered my own question. She can train with The Maestro. Their minds will mesh perfectly,.

[MorganSercu]

And he is in New Jersey. She can live with his family in their house too!

Such a good influence on the family unit.

@MHM

I don’t know anything at all about AB other than what I saw on the witness stand. But I will venture to guess that the odds were slim to none that she would ever have anything to do with LK in 500 million years, based on her testimony.

You are right. Brock knew enough in those days before the shooting to know who was the troublemaker at SGF. So if LK had tried to get her to train her, Brock would have said, “You’re kidding, right?” And LK would not have taken kindly to being scorned - ergo a character assassination campaign against Brock.

Maybe he can go somewhere else where she can teach him.

If I were in her shoes, I would certainly not set foot on that property. There are plenty of other places to do business in Wellington and Loxahatchee.

Do we know she teaches him at Paradigm? He could just as easily be hacking or shipping to her place for lessons.

I have no personal knowledge of the situation. I was basing my comments on the other posts here.

I hadn’t seen that post before, but I (thankfully) never followed her on FB. Do you know when that was posted? Did the timing coincide with another veiled insinuation on the SS thread on H/J about “corruption at the highest levels of USEF”?

There is a date and time stamp. The rant is actually connected to a COTH article if I remember correctly. I have seen a posted a version of this rant on the forum and somewhere else….and then this version that actually names names so it is the clearest. I do believe that this rant was related to the thread here. I’d honestly kind of forgotten I had this one until I went through looking for the calls of banning of MHG screenshots.

I assume that the source was that she applied for some of this scholarship money (maybe trying to cover some of her costs that was being covered by “work” at MB’s) and got declined.

I’m sure it’s a trainer working their way up and not an Olympian. A trainer under the wings of Ulf.

I find it interesting that you saw a name you weren’t familiar with liking your posts and you questioned it. Did you worry about such things before this whole mess erupted. I know that this has made me more circumspect with people I interact with on SM. There have been a couple of times when I have thought, “This is a whole level of crazy that I don’t want to deal with” and have just gone silent.

The things we learn on a equestrian chat site…

@MHM

@DownYonder

Same here. Many likes from that person, but I have never tried to figure out who it is.

Same. I just checked my likes, which I usually don’t do. There are some from that person, as well as from some other people whose names don’t ring a bell.

Hi, everybody!

Feel free to jump in whenever you like. Or don’t. Suit yourself.

To be fair, I lurked here for YEARS before joining in on any conversations. I often ‘liked’ posts, but never made many of my own.

I doubt there is anything nefarious going on with a random person ‘liking’ posts but not actually posting

And once again - rejection. Poor thing just can’t handle it.

Sometimes I just ask myself, is this person worth any more of my time or energy? And if the answer is no, I just don’t bother with them any further. Or I try to refrain, anyway. Lol.

[Cat_Tap]

I haven’t posted as I do not have any relative or new information. I was mesmerized initially by the MB threads and even emotionally involved. However, I now just scroll through quickly to see if there if is any new information regarding MB;s situation.

I now have a headache from “head desk” especially passing over CH; continuous, ridiculous posts and find it frustrating when people respond to her.

I do not have an interest in drug addiction or crazy behavior so would appreciate if a new thread was started with up to date information.

I concur.

I think the level of crazy on some of the recent threads has just made people a little more leery of unexplained activity on the BB.

I did start a new thread the other day, but I don’t think there has been any new information on MB’s situation since then. Or at least, I have not seen anything.
