Lee Kenworthy v. The World

Memorial Day 2018

72 Constitution Boulevard

Whiting, New Jersey

.

Background:

.

On Memorial Day 2018, in Whiting, New Jersey, child protective services was called upon to make a welfare check on 2 children who were located at the residence at 72 Constitution Boulevard.

.

The children’s mother is deceased and the father, Lee Kenworthy, was staying at the address noted along with a young woman named Samantha Brown.

.

Lee Kenworthy began “live-streaming” on FaceBook and refused to allow child protective services to conduct the welfare check.  Police assistance was requested and arrived.

.  

Shara Michelle, characterizing herself as a reporter for Freedom Public Press, showed up some time after the incident began and also began live-streaming via FaceBook.  No other local or national media sent reporters to the scene or otherwise appear to have picked up on the story and reported it.

.

After a stand-off lasting several hours, the children were removed into State custody and Mr. Kenworthy was taken to a mental health facility for observation as a consequence of his behavior during the incident.

.

It was determined that Mr. Kenworthy should remain in a mental health facility for evaluation and/or treatment.  He left that facility on his own accord, was jailed briefly for contempt, and then was returned to a mental health facility for treatment and/or evaluation.

.

The whereabouts of Samantha Brown are unknown.  I asked her, and she refused to confirm any of the rumors about whether she was remaining in the indicated residence or moved elsewhere.

.

Discussion:

.

The State’s actions appear to be legally and factually justified and the children’s rights and the rights of Lee Kenworthy are protected, are being protected by due process.  Due to privacy rights in such cases, much information is not readily available or subject to easy confirmation.

.

Despite that, there has been a concerted effort by some to champion the case of Lee Kenworthy in the on-going anti-government, anti-child welfare “movement”.  This has been evident by the reporting done and involvement in the case by such persons as Jamie Sparks Wehrheim Johnson, Francesca Amato-Banfield, Shara Michelle, Jennifer Winn, Merissa Hamilton, Meko Haze, and others.  Many early supporters of what I consider the False Kenworthy Narrative have appeared to distance themselves from the case because it has become ever more evident that Mr. Kenworthy has some serious mental and other issues and the children, quite legitimately, should not be in his custody at the present time.

.

The record which has been broadcast primarily on FaceBook since the events of Memorial Day 2018 has been tampered with substantially, with many live-feeds or recorded broadcasts being deleted as well as much of the commentary posted to various FaceBook pages.

Shara Michelle – I’m beginning to suspect that your “documents” either don’t exist or they don’t have what you were hoping for. 
.
Sadly, people are thinking this delay is the same as all the other delays. You claim to be covering this story but the interest in Kenworthy is waning fast.
.
He’s getting the help he severely needs and I doubt this facility is going to be open with Sam like the last because after him breaking a window and escaping the other one I suspect it’s more secure. 
.
If you are the reporter you claim to be you would simply release the documents and not try to make non-professional opinions on what they say.
.
If you don’t provide pictures of the documents then nobody is going to believe what you say anyway because you either interpret it yourself like the first video claiming his rights were broken, or it came from someone close to him like Sam. We certainly know she’s not a reliable source.
.
So, if you are going to report this then do so or lose more reputation among those of us who are interested in your reporting. 
.
While you are delaying those like Robert Baty are scooping you severely on their websites. 
.
Time to show the documents or tell us why you can’t besides you are reviewing them and it’s taking time or you can’t because someone won’t let you. 
.
By the way. I’ve owned a radio station in my younger days and I have my college minor in journalism. An investigative reporter is a journalist. You don’t ever, ever announce a story before it’s ready to air or it will destroy your credibility with the audience. If you announce it and things change you do a show on what specifically has changed and why exactly you couldn’t put it on. 
.
My guess? You got some of Lee’s personal papers from Sam and you are trying your best to google and find a fit to your narrative if Lee.
.
Time to put up or do a show telling the specifics of why you can’t. 
.
It’s been 32 days now and you’ve only done two shows and besides what we saw in the yard in the first show we haven’t learned a darn thing except the police and an ambulance were at his house. Your credibility is waning fast and I don’t think you want this to happen.

Robert Baty you are free to add my reply to Shawn as well.

And i encourage you sir. If you don’t, you Will make visible

your bias narrative.

From: Shara Michelle

Time: 11:42 AM MT

Thank you Shawn for your help. We can all be candid here. You are correct on a few points, but not others. As I have stated, I have not covered a story of this interest before as,I ran into it. That said I intend to stay on it and to grow in it and to continue to bring the PUBLIC true facts. 
.
The documents do exist and yes I am learning, investigating all the facts and how they “work together”, Anyone can state an isolated fact that works with their own bias narrative. You all have the breaking news, you don’t need that from me. I know what you need from me. Opinion and anylis is often made by the PUBLIC, the LAWMAKERS. most of these are not professiinals on these matters. I am not a professional on these matters. But the laws are defined clearly. And having a mental illness is not a crime. And those with mental illness have rights and need them most of all. 
.
Call me a rookie, a novice, keep teaching me, I’m.ALWAYS learning.but you have something to learn too. Guide me don’t slay me. I have a sqeaky clean history, no arrests, no drugs, law abiding citizen, kind and compassionate. Yes I am a rookie here in this arena. But my innocent approach may refresh you, respectfully.
.
I have been asked by my source not to release “some” of the documents. I’m not relying on Sam, I’m relying on documents. I’m not relying on you Shawn, but I’m learning from you.
.
When I made my announcement the documents came after and I did state the reason for delay. Like I said, only fools rush in.
.
In the future I will announce the show ONLY directly minutes before. But let’s be real Shawn, had I proceeded ill prepared with these added documents, you would have slayed me for that too. 
Nothing I say or do will impress you unless I’m flowing into YOUR narrative. 
.
I remain impartial 
.
I am sticking to the facts, “nothing but the facts Ma’am”
My native American chief (pal) always told me to move “slow like a turtle”, open your eyes, but close your eyes first. Feel with your feet, collect from the wind like a lion. That was the best advice I ever received. 
.
By the way, where are you getting your confidential information about Mr Kenworthy’s location? Assumptions are not fact. 
.
Ps I’m not “trying to make non-professional opinions” on what the documents say. To discuss them I must fully understand them. I am considering them in how they work together to tell the real story at last~ don’t count me out yet

I stand by my statement that Mr Kenworthy’s rights were violated. I am NOT anti- government or anti- child welfare. I understand the children need to be in custody at this time. I am covering Lee Kenworthy And the events that surround the violation of his rights. Yes, those with mental illness have rights~and yes, it’s been 32 days since he lost his~

Text of Lee Kenworthy Message Above

This is an update and goodbye for a while as a condition of all cases moving forward…. I will be taking down my Facebook and YouTube channel for a while …

.

I will be seeing my K… starting very soon after 6months mind you given all the help I requested from the proper agencies to prosecute those involved in my wife’s murder…. Instead their response was what everyone watched on Memorial Day … In an effort to keep me silent in the same manner they have in the past my family became hostages rather than the actual criminals prosecuted … Our evidence was viewed and more and more people/officials obstructed Justice to further silence Shayling Kenworthy all recorded… Criminals only get away with it for so long as justice does not sleep nor will it continue where police and those entrusted to protect and serve including children services will be allowed to get away with perjury falsifying reports to suit their agendas and profit off of the public … as well as murdering mothers fathers and our children across the country at ever increasing rates of absurdity terrorizing communities of color and ethnicity hiding behind fear you are in fact inflicted upon us all as we see and are ripped apart by the discrimination hate and lack of concern for our safety and lives … 

.

Warriors of justice like Shayling Kenworthy and the rest of us will accept nothing less than transparency and accountability for those we trust our lives to … They will all be exposed and the truth revealed Shayling Kenworthy will be heard and seen our children Shaylings parents my whole entire family needs to heal and justice being served is our starting point …. That is under way …. To those involved who are coming to my families corner joining us in our fight I am humbled and truly honored to have you at our side and at the helm as we move towards justice for Shayling Kenworthy 
.

Thank you Everyone who has been here for us and to everyone who has seen our story shared it and gotten involved…

Text of Above From Lee Kenworthy

Shara Michelle
.
I want to say thank u so much for that statement I’m in tears and humbled…
.
Shayling and I daily had to remind ourselves and the kids that what we were doing and evidence being gathered was more important than our individual happiness and safety even at times for a purpose so much bigger than ourselves and that our only path was to endure and persevere thru to bring light to truth and injustices for its with this creed we told our kids everything preparing them to tell their stories and perceptions in their view of what was done to them …
.
Si.a said cops need to protect not be whats attacks us a society….
.
That is a temperament from a child of forgiveness and understanding both the hate that took her mother and not blaming the badge as a whole but the power of few who feel they are above all reproach asking the blue wall to stop protecting their own…
.
To anyone who would try to attack any of us dealing with real issues like this and in all movements for equality end of corruption in family courts police murder and brutality falsification of criminal charges to fill private prisons specifically targeted at communities of color and ethnicity when Sia and countless children across the country who’s parents have been murdered by police with all the evidence that has been provided we see you loud and clear and what side of the lines your on ….
.
We have your indifference and hate while trying to spread misinformation and lies to protect murderers accessory after the fact btw in both print recordings and a slew of transparency is on the way ….
.
U openly attacked a 10 year old who came forward for help describing the federal marshal homeowner with his gun on her father ….
.
That’s a crime not murder but abuse of authority terroristic threats intimidation strong arming witness tampering since involved in a federal lawsuit which they all were aware of and his home being government subsidized in uninhabitable conditions he should never have put/kept us in that cage conflict of interest especially when wanting to move out because of health with a lawyers assistance our legal right another crime …
.
For those who choose to attack us rather than demand his arrest and justice u fully illustrated hate for my Spanish wife and our children because we Shayling is not worthy of justice …..
.
Let all of that sink in…
.
Had the homeowner been arrested b4 Shayling was killed or anytime after where my children/family and I would be …

Update November 16, 2018

Looks like everyone except Adapt Pharma will be asking the Court to dismiss Lee Kenworthy’s case against the Lyndhurst Police Department, et al, over the death of his wife, and Adapt Pharma is asking for more time (I think to prepare their motion to dismiss).

The defendants indicate they will be asking for the dismissal, with prejudice, and with costs.

My Evaluation Is Stated Below

I propose the only reason we are hearing this from Shara Michelle is because I first reported the latest actions in the Kenworthy/Lyndhurst case and it just ticked her off. Notice that Shara says nothing, nor does she explain why nothing is said, regarding what “favorable” means in the context of the alleged settlement of the Kenworthy/Housing Authority case.

The False Kenworthy Narrative continues as Shara Michelle continues to advocate under the guise of the fictitious Freedom Public Press label.

I have changed the format of Shara’s post to make it a little easier to read and follow.

LEE KENWORTHY EXCLUSIVE PHONE INTERVIEW UPDATE, 11.17.18:
.
The housing authority lawsuit has settled favorably and now the federal lawsuit in the wrongful death of Shayling Kenworthy is underway against thirteen parties.
.
Multiple parties just filed motions to dismiss on the basis of jurisdiction and will be met with a legal argument.
.
“This lawsuit is for the violation of our civil rights,
leading to the death of my wife, mother of my children,
Shayling Kenworthy”
.
– Mr Kenworthy~
.
“My family was held under threat, in federally subsidised
housing, against our will, in unhealthy conditions, leading
to the death of Shayling. Shayling developed a worsening
of her asthma condition due to the clearly unhealthy
conditions in the home.”
.
– Mr Kenworthy~
.
“We were held against our will in the home”
.
– Mr Kenworthy~
.
(The world heard the audio recordings of the home owner that Lee recorded and shared publicly. Allegedly, when Lee and Shayling Kenworthy brought this recording to the police for help, no action was taken)
.
“At the same time, a false investigation by child welfare
was opened, further blocking our attempt to leave.”
.
– Mr Kenworthy~
.
Ultimately, Shayling Kenworthy’s asthma condition deteriorated and she had a life threatening acute asthma attack on the day the family was packing to flee from the home.
.
“I called 911 for help. Me and the ambulance were restrained
from performing life saving medical procedures leading to the
untimely death of Shayling. Instead of emergency treatment for
her asthma attack, Lyndhurst police treated for drug overdose,
while restraining me and the ambulance from attending, and
there was no drug overdose. I was restrained and helpless”.
.
– Mr Kenworthy~
.
Lee Kenworthy was then, allegedly, further restrained and held under a false investigation as his wife, already deceased, was transported to a hospital without him.
.
“This was a 4th amendment violation of our civil rights, multiple
rights, leading to the death of Shayling Kenworthy. If this case
had no merit, they would have released the body cam footage
to shut me up.”
.
– Mr Kenworthy~
.
On May 28, 2018, the world watched live streaming both from inside the home and Freedom Public Press coverage outside the home.
.
The story went global as hundreds of thousands of viewers witnessed Lee Kenworthy in a standoff with Manchester police and Child Welfare in Manchester NJ. Mr Kenworthy was medically kidnapped from his home, held and drugged against his will in a hospital, and then his children removed.
.
This prodigious story is only beginning to open up.
Freedom Public Press
.
(End Shara’s report.)
.

Some might be wondering about the “thing” Shara appears to have for me.  I am beginning to wonder as well!

The above link is to a recent thread and video of Lee Kenworthy as posted by Samantha Brown, his girlfriend, on her FaceBook page; in promotion of the False Kenworthy Narrative.

“John Riley” appeared and posted numerous messages in that thread in an attempt to justify the Kenworthy Narrative.  Others responded to him, but it now appears he has blocked me and others from seeing his messages.  However, FaceBook did advise me of one message he directed to me as shown below:

.

From: John Riley

Date: December 2, 2018

Time: 6:44 PM MT

.

Lyndhurst Police Department are the ones who killed
Shayling Kenworthy that night in the room when they
pulled her away from her husband while doing cpr
and restrained both Mr Kenworthy and EMS while
trying multiple times on their body cameras to escalate
the tone in commands and perception much like you
are now as they also tried to get a gun to his head for
over 10 minutes murdering Shayling Kenworthy in the
process… Reflective of their reports which state Shayling
Kenworthy was down non responsive and they along
with EMS performed services an outright fabrication
another crime upon Lyndhurst police Officers and
Department.

.

I responded with the following:

.

From: Robert Baty

Date: December 2, 2018

Time: 7:04 PM MT

.

I understand that to be one version, an incomplete version, of the False Kenworthy Narrative concocted to support a wrongful death claim. A close inspection, however, I believe, will reveal that even that lame effort actually supports my position on the matter.
.
I am more than willing to let the issue be decided in court, perhaps state court after the federal case is dismissed, if it is dismissed. However, I’m thinking Lee won’t survive with any legitimate claims if the case is allowed to proceed because, it seems to me, he’s got no case because he is responsible for the death of Shayling that night.

Sounds like Lee is doing what he can, with the help of his advocates Shara and Samantha, et al, to make sure he does not comply.

Text of Lee’s Message

.

From: Lee Kenworthy
To: Governor Phil Murphy, et al
.
Dear to whom it may concern,
.
In this email, I Lee Kenworthy, will be addressing what needs to be immediately addressed and rectified as I am the patient on a singular level who needs services suited for the trauma and injustices, I personally as a father and family man have endured, witnessed and have been maliciously subjected to at the hands of criminals and ongoing corruption via police and multiple private corporations in an effort to force my silence utilizing my children.
.
The first directive at hand is my immediate relocation to my consent for DCPP, The Division of Youth and Family Services  DYFSS or however they are known by your organization. You do not have consent to speak with them.
.
My second concern to be addressed and actually properly addressed and remedied hopefully without the need for legal action is the intake & addressing my documentation and assessment from independent top professionals in their fields like I asked and requested multiple times to be told you don’t need them as the division, DCPMP has sent you my psychiatric history reports, assessments and recommendations and preferred referral reports even and although they are not qualified to make such assessments and recommendations.
.
I also explicitly told your whole team the reports have been falsified, altered and are biased including psychiatrists, forensic psychologists who are being paid well into the millions to produce the opinions their litigators need to support the removal of children from healthy productive families for financial gain which is a federal crime of theft of honest services especially when they are creating mental health issues where there are no mental health issues like in my case.
.
I ask that each and every one of you recall like I asked you during our meeting when I had to insist you accept my proof and collateral that the diagnosis DCPP and now your hospital is trying to put on me is in fact false derogatory and against my best interest and health while reminding you all of the oath you took to do no harm.
.
I was instead again met with resistance and told that was for me to deal with in court and you did not need or want me or my reports stating that I do not suffer from any mental illnesses which is absolutely against my health and well-being and a direct violation of your Hippocratic oaths.
.
I spoke finally after chasing the requesting to speak with my counselor for over a week to go over what exactly the rules and regulations are with regards to compliance and requested that I be allowed to get on the phone to handle the federal lawsuit in which I am Pro Se and need to handle and enormous amount of research at Law Library’s motions to be prepared at the drop of a hat and both contact the court via phone and at times in person.
.
I spoke with Runa finally and told her my trauma & need to see her at least two times a week so  she/they the team can properly address my actual case and not the politics surrounding my wife’s murder and the slanderous reports so they can be fixed to reflect who I actually am without the slander and lies.
.
I asked my case worker to also take the psychiatric reports that state I do not have a mental disorder and was met with resistance.  Runa my counselor would be the point of contact to give updates progress and compliance reviews and ask that you seek and I asked specifically that she speak to DCPP and deliver these reports through my lawyer as your hospital does not work for the Division, DCPP unless they do???
.
As I’ve dealt with altering the facts, conversations and issues of compliance in the past which is why I/we began recording everything so integral issues and perjury from officers of the court and mandated reporters can be fully illustrated and lies fabrication and slander not utilized against my family.
.
I asked Runa to get in touch with my lawyer immediately so the referral can be made and I can begin to see my children finally after 6 months which is a direct result of blatant and obvious retaliation for me proceeding with my wife’s wrongful death case…now if federal court after it was dismissed from Bergen County Municipal while I was medically kidnapped.
.
Runa told me I may be excused from sessions to take calls from the Division and only the Division after 3 weeks while telling me I was actually being non-compliant when dealing with court issues surrounding my wife’s wrongful death case when she stated week one going in to week two that as long as I informed her what was going on my excusing myself from the group to take & make calls was OK as long I have & can prove who I am speaking with.
.
Week one, Runa and I also spoke about days off and report dates surrounding DCPP and I told her I would need some days in regards to my wife’s wrongful death case as a matter of fact both evidentiary and retaliatory is a factor of Shayling Kenworthy’s wrongful death federal lawsuit and your facilities discrimination and outright demands for me to not handle the suite utilizing compliance and my ability to access to my children is outright attacks of my civil rights as you medicate me with disregard for what’s in my best interest and once again your oath to do no harm.
.
Like I told you in our one hour meeting when your director now as well told me you do not need or want my reports disputing your’s/DCPP’s.  I will not be threatened by thugs with badges or doctoral degrees when truth & facts are the only that is going to begin to help my family heal.  To be told by all three of you if I revoke my consent for you to speak to the Division/DCPP I will be removed from your program rather than you allowing me to deliver you factual evidence of my lack of a psychiatric illness and address a proper program or plan of treatment to help me address my trauma, grief, and unification with my traumatized grieving children who now lost both parents.  I was again threatened and retaliated against by your hospital and DCPP as I am non-compliant with a treatment both ill-equipped and geared towards a mental illness not supported by facts.
.
I was told I’m non-compliant for taking calls after showing up for 3-4 weeks straight, 8am – 5pm
while also asking when are my blood levels going to be taken so that is not also used agaisnt me which low and behold it was.  At this point your agenda is clear and your weapon is my access to my children.
.
After you and your lawyers review this new information you were resistant to take I feel we should set up a proper meeting wherein 3 of you are not positioned to try and overpower, over-speak, and threaten me again while we come up with a proper treatment plan to help reunify me with my children quickly without disregard for your Hippocratic Oath and the Division’s Agendas that I would hope will not still be your disposition given the illumination on facts, evidential.  A proper treatment plan to help me would be excellent, but I don’t believe your hospital can approach that level of civility and humanity.
.
I look forward to sitting down in a room bigger than a closet with your lawyers and a few of my representatives so this can move smoothly for everyone involved.
.
Please keep in mind that I am showing a civility and human decency in my wording and dialect to not legally hang and implicate every single one of you in the actual you are committing when all I am asking and requesting and jumping through hoops with no intentions of your follow through to see and speak to my children who’s mother was murdered by corruption and criminals with badges that you are all not addressing and that is what this is all about right now.
.
Please enjoy the documents and paper trail that shows my actual mental health and lack of any illness as Latimer put it, “it is close to and in fact impossible for Lee Kenworthy to have a mental illness”.
.
Sincerely,
Lee Kenworthy

Update January 2, 2019

Looks like Lee Kenworthy is playing games with the Court; trying to pull something and get some kind of relief that might keep his wrongful death suit from being dismissed.

.

So, I asked Shara about that on her thread at:

https://www.facebook.com/sharamichelle.art/posts/2929881243704020

.

January 3, 2019

Shara and others appear to be promoting a picture that is supposed to be of Shayling Kenworthy as an angel.  Someone has suggested that the image is more similar to another well-known image.

The Court issued it’s ORDER today regarding Lee’s stunt in filing a motion for an emergent hearing.  That can be found at the following link:

LETTER ORDER

.

Re: Kenworthy v. Lyndhurst Police Department, et al
Civil Action No. 18-12822

.

Dear Litigants:

.

The Court has reviewed pro se Plaintiff Lee Kenworthy’s
Motion for “Emergent Meeting/In Chambers On Camera/In
Court On Record/Judge’s Discretion upon certain matters
raised & decisions confidentiality may take effect surrounding
federal protection orders requested/granted.”

.

ECF No. 17.

.

Plaintiff states that the “serious injury is and has been
threats upon our lives from officers of the law/mafia/medical professional surrounding our children and home surrounding
retaliation in exact manner right before Shayling Kenworthy
was murdered.” Id.

.

For the following reasons, the request is DENIED.

.

Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 65(b)(1) provides that a
temporary restraining order may be issued without notice
to the adverse party only if:

.

“(A) specific facts in an affidavit or verified
complaint clearly show that immediate and
irreparable injury, loss, or damage will result
to the movant before the adverse party can
be heard in opposition;

.

and

.

(B) the movant’s attorney certifies in writing
any efforts made to give notice and the reasons
why it should not be required.”

.

Local Civil Rule 65.1(a) requires a movant to make “a clear
and specific showing by affidavit . . .

.

or

.

verified pleading of good and sufficient reasons why a
procedure other than by notice of motion is necessary.”

.

Plaintiff has not met that standard.

.

He has not made any “clear and specific showing” of
irreparable harm, nor has he demonstrated a likelihood
of success on the merits of his underlying action.

.

The Clerk’s Office is hereby directed to mail a copy of this Order
to Plaintiff.

.

SO ORDERED.

It’s not rocket science.
.
I think what Shara and Lee are cleverly trying to deny is that Lee’s deceased wife has any relatives named Molly Zarildo.
.
It’s the Internet.
It’s social media.
.
Did they ever consider and investigate the possibility that “Molly Zarildo” is not the real name of the person using that account and which is actually related to Shayling Kenworthy?
.
I have seen no evidence that they have, and I have heard rumors that such may actually be the case.
.
Try again Lee.
Try again Shara.
.
I’m convinced the person using the account name of Molly Zarildo is as claimed; a relative of Shayling Kenworthy.

Update April 1, 2019

.

LEE KENWORTHY was mixing it up with our Andy Nemec most recently on Lee’s page at:
.
.
So, I thought I would return to that discussion (Lee had not been being responsive to my earlier posts there) and posted the following there this morning (no response yet from Lee):
.
From: Robert Baty
Date: April 1, 2019
Time: 8:17 AM MT
.
Lee writes, in part:
.
– “He is someone we saw for years
– every other week to deal with the
– divisions false assertion of a mental
– illness that has never existed in my
– entire life.”
.
It doesn’t take “years” with sessions “every other week” to convince the decision makers that there are no mental issues relevant to the custody issue.
.
As has been the case over the last 10 months, “we” know Lee is convincing as a performance artist that there are mental issues relevant to the matter, along with other issues.
.
If he has no mental issues as a matter of fact, as he keeps claiming, then it is something else we are not being told that accounts for why he, allegedly, has not seen his kids, with or without supervision, for 10 months.
.
As I mentioned elsewhere, when information is readily available to Lee and not presented, the trier of the facts (us) is justified in concluding the information is not being provided because it is detrimental to Lee’s case.
.
Lee also wrote, in part:
.
– “Why are we all not focusing on the
– bs being utilized to take my children
– and discredit me that hasn’t worked
– in the past and isn’t going to work now.”
.
What?
.
The State was legally and factually justified in the resolution of the matter on Memorial Day 2018. It worked and is working. I have an outstanding offer to take up that matter should Lee, Shara, or another representing Lee’s position want to advance that one-on-one discussion and begin the negotiations appropriate to resolving the logistical details necessary to producing such an event.
.
Should the situation change, I am sure we will hear about it.
.
Lee also did, has done, is doing, a fine job of discrediting himself. We just take note of it at times.
.
Lee and his mouthpiece, Shara/Sharon Cronkite Michelle Wolf Donato Austin Lentin cannot be open and honest with even the simplest of matters (i.e., the details as to the reported “legal dream team”).

Lots been going on with Lee Kenworthy seemingly engaged in never-ending live FaceBook broadcast demonstrating he has mental and drug problems that are not being properly addressed.  Shara has yet to publish a formal statement regarding her situation as Lee has taken to attacking her now, in addition to many others; of which, Heather Christensen and Cally Esposito have obtained Temporary Restraining Orders against Lee and are due back in Court on May 20, 2019 to have the status of those determined.  Maybe Lee will show up for that, maybe not.

Here is a post from Shara today regarding her and Lee:

https://www.facebook.com/sharamichelle.art/posts/3237816872910454

.

Update May 21, 2019

Heather Christensen & Cally Esposito obtained new, temporary restraining orders against Lee Kenworthy as a result of Lee’s antics on FaceBook in attacking and threatening them.

Court proceedings were held on May 20 to consider making the temporary orders permanent.

Lee Kenworthy did not show up.

Heather was granted a permanent restraining order.

Cally was given more time to present evidence, and her case was reset for May 29 when Lee will have yet another opportunity to present himself and his position on the matter.

.

Update May 21, 2019

Lee Kenworthy has just added more frivolity to his latest federal suit stemming from the Memorial Day 2018 Standoff and following events.  He is asking the Court to help him fend off his FaceBook critics, and he’s named just about everyone that has been critical of his nonsense.  In addition to the 11 page motion for a hearing and emergency relief, he includes about 1,000 pages of information.

Burgess Motion for Summary Judgment

Burgess Summary Judgment Order

Excerpt From Summary Judgment Order

(Begin quote.)

.

This case arises out of Mark Burgess’ (“Burgess”)

arrest on February 27, 2016.

.

Burgess called 911 after waking up to his wife,

Plaintiff Elizabeth Burgess, having a seizure.

.

The Sioux Falls Police Department (“SFPD”) and

the Sioux Falls Fire & Rescue Department (“SFFR”)

responded to the 911 call.

.

The responders arrived in the bedroom where the

Burgesses were located.

.

Burgess was acting erratically and Officer MacFarlane

took action to remove or arrest Burgess which ended

up in a struggle involving Burgess and Officers

MacFarlane and Westrum.

.

Burgess grabbed a pocket knife.

.

He was sprayed in the face with OC Spray (pepper

spray) and was tased before becoming compliant

with the officers’ commands.

.

Burgess was arrested and charged two counts of

aggravated assault on law enforcement, obstruction

of police and fire personnel, and resisting arrest.

.

He pled guilty to obstructing a law enforcement officer

in violation of SDCL 22-11-6.

Hi Robert,

I dropped him as a client.

I was just trying to help someone who seemed
like he had a great case.

But then I found out he’s just a crazed/manipulative
guy who takes advantage of people with his
unfortunate situation that likely does not have a
legal basis.

At any rate, thanks for bringing this to my attention.

Full Text of Story

.

A former Lyndhurst man who blames authorities for his wife’s death – and last year got into a standoff with police during a welfare check on their children — was arrested in Fort Lee with his girlfriend over the weekend on charges of cyber harassment and violating a restraining order.

Seized along with Lee Kenworthy, 41, was Samantha Brown, 27, both of Englewood, Fort Lee police said.

Among court action that Kenworthy has taken against various people and agencies over the years is a wrongful death suit in Bergen County alleging a cover-up of what he claims was his late wife’s murder.

Shayling “Shay” Kenworthy, 38, died suddenly on Aug. 17, 2016. Her family has disputed her widower’s conspiracy theory, saying that she’d succumbed to complications from asthma.

The couple had been involved in a series of disputes with their Lyndhurst landlord, a retired Jersey City police chief. They apparently were moving out the day she died, authorities said.

Lyndhurst police initially were called by a neighbor complaining about a blocked driveway. Soon after, they said, Kenworthy called to report that his wife was having a medical episode.

Police got there first. They summoned EMS, who tried in vain to save her, responders said.

Kenworthy, whose criminal history stretches back more than a decade, established a GoFundMe page that has since been removed, as well as several YouTube videos that also were taken down and various web pages all centering on the circumstances of his wife’s death.

Police in the Ocean County town of Whiting were called on Memorial Day last year after Kenworthy reportedly refused to let child protective services workers do a welfare check on his and his late wife’s two children.

Kenworthy live-streamed on Facebook what became an hours-long standoff that finally ended with the children temporarily in state custody and him briefly lodged in a mental health facility.

Recently, Brown published screen shots of Facebook blocks and violation notices, as well as messages from a group administrator who accused her and Kenworthy of harassing him.

The administrator noted that Brown picked up the campaign after Facebook blocked Kenworthy. He threatened to notify local police.

Brown, in turn, said they’d been merely commenting.

Then came this weekend’s arrests.

Fort Lee officers looking for the two spotted them just after 9 p.m. Saturday near the Route 4 underpass on Grand Avenue, Police Capt. Ricky Mirkovic said.

Brown was taken into custody without incident, he said, but Kenworthy ran across Route 4 into a wooded area.

Officer Christopher Richter deployed his K9 partner, Bodie, who found Kenworthy in the backyard of a Rockwood Place home, the captain said.

Officers surrounded and captured Kenworthy without further incident, he said.

Without disclosing details in order to protect the victim, Mirkovic said that Kenworthy was charged with violating a final restraining order and cyber harassment, as well as resisting arrest. He remained held Tuesday in the Bergen County Jail.

Brown was charged with conspiracy and released, the captain said.

Part of the issue with the evictions is that they were living apart, or supposed to be living apart so that Shay could have custody of the kids, a significant part of the time. It also involves multiple states, cities, counties, municipal and landlord/tenant courts. I’ve actually found records of both forcible detainer (eviction) and landlord judgments against each of them. I think it just depended on who was “officially” renting the place. I’m too tired to create all of the jpegs right now, but just a quick tour (and not complete by any means):

10/2012: Civil Judgment against Shay for $4,719 in Bergen County Special Civil Court (Case No. DC00651211)

11/2010: Civil Judgment against Shay for $4,590 in Passaic Country Special Civil Part (Case No. DC02180810)

03/2010: Forcible detainer for Lee at E Centre St, Nutley, (Case No. LT00433310)

11/2008: Forcible detainer for Lee and Shay at Roosevelt Avenue, Lodi NJ (Case No. LT00872108)

02/2006: Civil Judgment for $1,355 against Lee and Shay for Landlord/Tenant case at Pamrapo Ave, Jersey City, NJ(Case No. LT00303006)

03/2005: Landlord/Tenant case filed against Lee for Pomona Ave, Towaco, NJ (Case No. LT00060205) – Outcome Unknown

12/2004: Civil Judgment against Lee for Landlord/Tenant case at Hunters Glen Dr, Plainsboro, NJ (Case No. LT01108104)

10/2000: Forcible detainer for Lee and Shay at Ashford Oaks Dr, Altamonte Springs, FL (Case No. B3937P11)

It’s well past my bedtime right now and I’m bleary eyed so I don’t know how well I’ve proofread my dates and numbers here, but this is the low hanging fruit I have found in the civil judgment and eviction/forcible detainer arena.

The criminal stuff is WAY more extensive for Lee and in so many counties and states, all of which have to mostly be individually searched at the municipal, superior and district level. But if you feel like tracking down more detail on these cases, I think I’ve given enough info to allow for a targeted approach!

and

I feel, more and more, like it’s important to show that their story was not one of selfless activists being persecuted and retaliated against, but rather one of neglectful parents engaged in daily drug use, under- and unemployed (particularly Lee) and not meeting their financial obligations as adults and parents. Worse, they were also taking advantage of people who either tried to help them or, as in the recent case with the young couple who “subletted’ from Lee, they were being scammed. Add to that Lee and Sam’s history of blackmail and extortion, and I think you see pretty clearly that there is no “higher moral purpose” to any of what they have done.

And, yes, Laura Martinez, one of the other things is you can tell when you look at their residential history when they were living for free in buildings managed by Shay’s dad, when they were living with their parents, and when they were living for free while Lee worked for the Housing Authority. They seriously avoided paying rent a LOT.

and

I swore I was NOT going to do this. Do you have any idea how long it takes, especially on the criminal side, to track down charges in so many different jurisdictions? I’m not even going to include all of the traffic/street/driving violations because it would never end (though he did spend time in jail repeatedly and was fined many thousands of dollars for driving on a suspended/without a license, without insurance, without registration, etc.

and

This is exhausting, but I’ve found five more judgments against Lee and Shay in Bergen County alone, three of which are Landlord/Tenant judgments or evictions for non-payment of rent. Included in this batch is THE eviction that he blames for his wife’s death.

Of INCREDIBLE note is that the Andersen’s filed their Landlord/Tenant civil action on 7/7/16, more than a MONTH before Shay died. They were suing for the $4400 in back rent. That’s the money Lee SWEARS he had and just wanted to pay in a lawyer’s office. This document gives lie to that claim because he was served and could have made payment through the court at any time. It also shows that the Andersen’s were well on their way to being made whole for the back rent through legal means. NO ONE killed Shayling because of yet another eviction/non-payment of rent by Shay and Lee. This document destroys Lee’s narrative.

and

One of the things that became clear in the many hours I have spent on this (and not just today; I just decided to start consolidating and publishing today finally), is that Lee racked up literally tens of thousands of dollars in fines for driving without a license, failure to pay parking and speeding tickets, failure to insure, failure to pay fines he agreed to for other charges. I’m not saying that Shay did have a lot of money, but between Lee’s drug habit and criminal activity habit, they wasted a lot of money that might have, I dunno, gone toward rent or registering and insuring a car, etc. Paying his unending fines became one of the only ways to keep him out of jail after a few years and they were always playing catch up if you look at the payment histories to the many courts, hoping he wouldn’t get picked up, but he always did because he just doesn’t believe he has to obey the law.

There’s a lot more, some of it pretty relevant, but I have pretty rigid standards for confirming facts, records and even court documents before going public. Let’s just say that if Lee decides he wants to come for me for exposing the utter and complete lie of his entire life and of Shay’s life as “activists,” he might want to hold his fire.

Beyond that, I will say that it is also utterly sad to watch a bright and motivated young woman who attended college and was succeeding in her own right be brought so low by such a lying loser and con man. I know she made her own choices, too, but I also see those kids as hostages and, once they were in the picture, she was vulnerable in a way that only a mother can understand. He absolutely used that against her (as shown in multiple videos). She didn’t deserve to die and I wish she had made it out with her kids away from Lee. He compromised and destroyed her.

and

So, I just added another 7 or 8 charges for Lee from 2007 in Lodi. They relate to three incidents, two involving possession of drugs/driving in possession/destruction of evidence etc. in March and April of that year, and then SURPRISE! in July, Lee has ANOTHER two charges for SIMPLE ASSAULT. I included the listing from Lodi because they look like identical charges but are listed separate and as “associated cases.” I don’t know if he assaulted two people at the same time, or if this is a clerical error.

What I do know is that his long speech yesterday about NO OTHER ASSAULTS than the 1999 knife fight/mafia hit (lol) and the 2016 assault against Shay as his only assault charges is not true. Here in 2007 he has another arrest for the same. Also, if you look at the possession/driving while suspended/driving while possession/destruction of evidence and assault charges at the bail amounts (many thousands) and the fine amounts (many thousand), you get an idea how they were spending their money!

and

Also, his claim that there were no charges/problems before SIa was born is clearly a lie. (Lee, you should not have stated in your video “where are the charges” before Sia was born. It encouraged me to continue my laborious task of documenting the truth!) He brought a lot of criminal charges into their lives, including drugs and violence, and then admitted himself for a cocaine habit (I have your written statement admitting it, Lee!) while then also allowing Shay to “take the charge” for the very serious “theft by deception” charges in Hackensack while he did his usual snitch/mental health/rehab admit to duck responsibility. They were homeless, jobless and broken up on and off in the years leading up to Sia’s birth (all Shay’s statements, plus the evictions and judgments), and this behavior and the resulting legal processes absolutely invited scrutiny by social services into their lives.
