What do you call a man who steals another man’s property, claims ownership of it, and then steals another item as a way to retain the initial stolen item?  I call that man a repugnant pustule on the ass of humanity.  Others may call him a thief.

From an email I received from Oleg yesterday.

At the start of this week, I asked Derek to make the
database of armedpolitesociety.com
available to my designates for backing it up to other servers. He dragged his
feet but promised to make it available on Thursday. That didn’t happen.

 

When I called him, he said that he was busy. Asked when he
would make it available, he said: “I talked to a couple of moderators on
THR and I think it should be part of the whole settlement with THR. I won’t
release it.”

 

Derek is a thief. Feel free to make that known to the world.

 

I own armedpolitesociety.com
domain name, so I can move that forum. I would prefer to move it with the
current content intact. My lawyer will be in contact with his. In the meantime,
I would appreciate anyone with the ear of law enforcement would recommend
criminal charges on this matter, not just the already discussed charges
connected with THR hijacking.

Peter has more.

Armed Polite Society or APS is Oleg’s site.  Derek – aside from hosting it – had nothing to do with it.  He stole it as a way to blackmail Oleg into giving up the fight for THR.

If this is the case, then Mr. Zeanah’s arrogance can only be described
as breathtaking. Not content with stealing one forum, he’s now trying
to hold a second forum hostage, in the hope it can help him escape the
consequences of his criminal actions! As one member of APS commented:

This
last step of Derek’s was the proverbial last straw. I have refrained
from posting as I could not couch my reply in civil terms.

There
is no other way to describe Derek’s actions other than betrayal, and
pure theft. Driven by greed and a massive inferiority complex. I hope
you drag him into court and he gets thrown in the pit.

Given enough rope, he will hang himself. I see he has cornered the market on that twisted fiber substance.

I’ve also been trying to find out more about the financial situation at
THR. I’m informed that Mr. Zeanah claims that he’s borne the costs of
THR for a prolonged period, and cites this as grounds for his claim for
part- or co-ownership of the forum. However, as stated in earlier
posts, I was under the impression that any time money was needed, it
had been provided by staff and/or a public fund-raiser. No accounts were ever presented by Mr. Zeanah to support his claims: and no belated or ex post facto
accounting now submitted can be accepted as true and accurate. He’s had
almost six years to submit such accounts, and has never done so. After
his recent actions, any retrospective accounting will be immediately
suspect, as potentially “cooking the books”. I certainly won’t accept
it as valid or authentic grounds for any claim, and I doubt very much
whether others will (particularly the courts).

At this point Derek Zeanah has proven himself over and over again as a thief, a liar, an immoral scumbag of the worst sort – the type who would betray a friend to fulfill his childish needs.  This is a person SO intent on getting his own way, he would risk his reputation, his friendships, his business and, ultimately, his freedom to declare “victory.”  Like a bratty child, whose only narrow goal is to retain a toy he stole from another kid at any cost, he’ll lie, hit, lash out, scream and scratch, while the adults shake their heads at his behavior in quiet disdain, and other kids turn away so they don’t have to see the tantrum. 

Like Peter, I sincerely hope he faces criminal action.  At this point, this reprehensible excuse for a human being doesn’t deserve any kind of consideration whatsoever.
