again boarding her horse in the barn at the Farm.
J9-:.~Soon after she started staying as a house guest at the Farm, Kanarek commenced
displaying behavior towards BARISONE, Gray, and/or other Farm residents and visitors, which
was increasingly threatening and/or otherwise unacceptable.
40-:54. Kanarek’s behavior included an upward spiral of harassment and stalking of
BARISONE, Gray, and/or Gray’s children, both on the Internet and throughout social media like
Facebook, where Kanarek made veiled and direct threats against them of ever-increasing severity.
4+.~As the situation escalated, BARISONE commenced uncovering the highly
problematic and threatening criminal and social backgrounds of Kanarek and Goodwin.
~56. It was in or about June 2019, for example, that BARISONE learned of Kanarek’s
status as a drug addict, criminal, and person with a history of harassment, stalking, threats of
violence, and violent assault, against others.
~R__BARISONE and Gray began to observe, find, and/or otherwise become aware of
Internet postings by Kanarek, in which Kanarek threatened harm, injury and/or violence against
BARISONE, Gray, Gray’s minor children living at the Farm, and/or horses boarding in the barn.
#.~For example, on or about July 25, 2019, seeking to threaten and intimate
BARIS ONE and Gray, Kanarek posted a ranting message on social media in which she bragged
about her past stalking and harassment of people, which was reasonably understood by
BARISONE to be Kanarek threating him, in which Kanarek spoke of"DEATH" in the context of
those who were in conflict with her.
#-:59. Thereafter, on or about July 31, 2019, Kanarek expressly threatened violence and
11

harm against BARISONE and Gray including Kanarek’s threat that she would “destroy” Gray
and everything Gray possessed, including Gray’s children, BARISONE, the Farm, and/or their
horses.
4460. It was based upon those threats, other threats and statements made by Kanarek,
and/or other behaviors by Kanarek and Goodwin, that BARISONE, Gray, and others at the Farm,
were reasonably placed in fear of physical harm and property destruction by Kanarek and
Goodwin.
4+.-6_L_As of July 31, 2019, and at all relevant times thereafter, BARISONE’s affect,
statements and behaviors evidenced outwardly that BARISONE was being psychologically
assaulted and victimized by Kanarek and Goodwin, such that the defendants knew of, and
intentionally and/or recklessly disregarded, BARISONE’s mounting psychological distress and
potential psychiatric breakdown that could occur unless appropriate and sufficient action was
taken by the defendants to intervene.
The July 31, 2019 Incident
4&-62. The situation continued to escalate out of control, with Kanarek increasing her
terroristic threats, harassment, stalking, and/or other criminal behaviors until the night of July 31,
2019, when BARISONE made his first “911” call to the WASIDNGTON TOWNSHIP POLICE
DEPARTMENT seeking emergency assistance.
63. On July 31 , 2019, at approximately 20:00 hours, BARISONE called “911” and
reported that he had been assaulted verbally by Kanarek and/or Goodwin; that he and others at
the Farm were being subjected to other criminal behaviors by Kanarek and/or Goodwin, including
but not limited to behaviors which constituted unlawful criminal threats, harassment, cyber

12
MRS-L-001562-21 10/28/2021 2:38:15 PM Pg 16 of 82 Trans ID: LCV20212519847
64. BARJSONE made that “911” call for the expressed purpose of reporting a crime
being committed against him as a victim of criminal conduct by Kanarek and/or Goodwin.
49-c65. In the “911” call BARJSONE communicated facts and circumstances
demonstrating that he was a person who was suffering physical or psychological injury or has
incurred loss of or damage to personal or real property as a result of what BARJSONE perceived
to be criminal acts, actions, and/or omissions against him by Kanarek and/or Goodwin.
66. Thereafter, DEFENDANT TESORI and DEFENDANT SEABECK arrived at the
Farm, whereupon BARISONE and/or others repeated their reports to WASHINGTON
TOWNSHIP that there had been a verbal assault by Kanarek and/or Goodwin; that BARISONE
and others at the Farm were being subjected to other criminal behaviors by Kanarek and/or
Goodwin including but not limited to behaviors which constituted unlawful criminal threats,
harassment, cyber stalking, and cyber harassment; and that BARJSONE and others were in fear
of immediate danger and injury to their physical health and/or wellbeing, and/or the wellbeing of
their property.
~67. The reports BARISONE made to DEFENDANT TESORI and DEFENDANT
SEABECK in that fa<.:e-to-face meeting included factual statement demonstrating that
BARJSONE was a person who was suffering from physical and/or psychological injury as a result
of what BARISONE perceived to be criminal acts, actions, and/or omissions against him by
Kanarek and/or Goodwin.
68. DEFENDANT TESORI and DEFENDANT SEABECK intentionally disregarded
the facts and circumstances being reported to them and intentionally failed to act to protect
BARISONE and/or the others making the report to WASHINGTON TOWNSHIP against
Kanarek and Goodwin.

MRS-L-001562-21 10/28/2021 2:38:15 PM Pg 17 of 82 Trans ID: LCV20212519847
~9. By and through their intentional disregard of the facts and circumstances being
reported to them, and their intentional failure to protect BARISONE and the others at the Farm
who were making complaints against Kanarek and/or Goodwin, DEFENDANT TESORI,
DEFENDANT SEABECK, the WASHINGTON TOWNSHIP POLICE DEPARTMENT and,
ultimately, WASHINGTON TOWNSHIP, were failing to treat BARISONE with the requisite
fairness, compassion, and respect he is guaranteed constitutionally violating the VRA, and/or
violating BARISONE’s other important constitutional rights including his right to equal
protection and his right to substantive due process.
~70. For example, during the July 31, 2019 incident~, BARISONE’s affect, statements
and behaviors evidenced outwardly that BARISONE was being psychologically assaulted and
victimized by Kanarek and Goodwin, such that the police knew of, and intentionally and/or
recklessly disregarded, BARISONE’s mounting psychological distress and potential psychiatric
breakdown that could occur unless appropriate and sufficient action was taken by the defendants
to intervene in the developing criminal dispute.
~lL__Thereafter, DEFENDANT TESORI and DEFENDANT SEABECK intentionally
authored and issued a Washington Twp Police Department Investigation Report that was
materially false and misleading (the “August 1, 2019 Police Report”), knowing that the August 1,
2019 Police Report was materially false and misleading through the statements they made in that
report and/or the information they omitted from it, and/or in actionable reckless disregard that the
report was materially false and/or misleading because of that.
72. The August 1, 2019 Police Report truthfully admitted that the “Victim” reporting
crime was “BARISONE, MICHAEL L.”, but was materially false and misleading in that the
report, inter alia: (a) failed to document the complaint by BARISONE and the others that some of
14
MRS-L-001562-21 10/28/2021 2:38:15 PM Pg 18 of 82 Trans ID: LCV20212519847
them were in fear of immediate danger and injury to their physical health and wellbeing, and/or
the wellbeing of their property; (b) failed to document the report by BARI SO NE and/or Gray that
Kanarek had made the terroristic threat to injury Gray, her children and/or her property; and/or
( c) failed to document other facts and circumstances necessary to accurately and effectively
convey the true circumstances and resulting material threat of injury, harm, and/or other mayhem
occurring at the Farm that day.
Mo73. By and through their acts of preparing and publishing a police report which was
made intentionally false and misleading by the police officers involved, DEFENDANT TESORI,
DEFENDANT SEABECK the WASHINGTON TOWNSHIP POLICE DEPARTMENT and,
ultimately, WASHINGTON TOWNSHIP, were failing to treat BARISONE with the requisite
fairness, compassion, and respect he is guaranteed constitutionally violating the VRA, and/or
violating BARISONE’s other important constitutional rights including his right to equal
protection and his right to substantive due process.
74. The August 1, 2019 Police Report documented as well that the responding
DEFENDANT POLICE OFFICERS violated police protocol by interviewing Kanarek and
Goodwin (the alleged criminal perpetrators) bdort! interviewing BARISONE, the “911”
complainant, evidencing unlawful bias by the defendants against BARISONE and evidencing
other wrongs.
75. By and through the responding officers’ intentional failures to follow, abide by,
and comply with those and other police protocols, DEFENDANT TESORI, DEFENDANT
SEABECK, the WASHINGTON TOWNSHIP POLICE DEPARTMENT and, ultimately,
WASHING TON TOWNSHIP, were failing to treat BARISONE with the requisite fairness,
compassion, and respect he is guaranteed constitutionally violating the VRA, and/or violating
15
MRS-L-001562-21 10/28/2021 2:38:15 PM Pg 19 of 82 Trans ID: LCV20212519847
BARISONE’s other important constitutional rights including his right to equal protection and his
right to substantive due process.
76. The DEFENDANT POLICE OFFICERs’ acts, actions and omissions when they
were interacting with BARISONE during the July 31, 2019 incidents referenced above, and/or in
connection with their preparation of the August 1, 2019 Police Report, violated BARISONE’s
constitutional rights including but not limited to BARISONE’s rights under the VRA,
BARISONE’s right to equal protection, BARISONE’s right to substantive due process, and other
important constitutional rights BARISONE had.
~77. The behaviors of the defendants, for example: (a) denied BARISONE treatment
with fairness, compassion, and/or respect, as a person being victimized criminally by Kanarek
and/or Goodwin; (b) denied BARISONE equal protection by performing their acts, action and
omission based upon unlawful discrimination against BARISONE based upon his gender, age,
psychological disability, and/or status as a person impacted by mental illness; © violated
BARISONE’s right to substantive due process by intentionally subjecting BARISONE to
emotional distress causing BARISONE physical and mental harm; and (d) other denials and/or
interferences with BARISONE’s protected, constitutional rights and interests.
The August 1, 2019 Incident
*-TI.:_ The situation continued to escalate out of control, with Kanarek and Goodwin
increasing their terroristic threats, harassment, stalking, and/or other criminal behaviors, against
BARISONE, Gray, and other people on the premises of the Farm.
~79. For example, on or about the morning of August 1, 2019, Goodwin cornered two
minors residing at the Farm (students ofBARISONE) and attempted to force the minors to agree
with Goodwin’s assertion that BARISONE was wrong to have call the police against him and
