Toxic Spirituality? Or, Be Scofield’s Toxic Journalism

When we think of freedom of speech, we might look with appreciation and gratefulness toward the insightful work and foresight our American forefathers labored into law. Ensuring us our right to convey our ideas and views fearlessly and transparently. The First Amendment was implemented on December 15, 1791, as a portion of the Bill of Rights, the initial ten amendments to the US Constitution. It established legislative safeguards for varied and distinct liberties, affecting freedom of speech, right to assemble, and the right to worship in whatever fashion. Upholding our right to communicate our opinions, even disliked or objectionable ones, without fear of government censorship. But not all speech is protected. Conducts of speech not insulated under the First Amendment include any expression or display of immoral sexual material, such as child pornography. Protections also exclude speech that incites illegal activities or crimes, or that involves plagiarism of copyrighted materials. And, unquestionably, the First Amendment does not protect defamation, libel, and slander. I sense it’s necessary to emphasize, it includes that everyone in the United States has the right to practice his or her own religion, or no religion at all.

To be clear: Libel is published, broadcast, or digitized, online defamation of character, as opposed to spoken defamation of character. Vocalized defamation of character is slander. Libelous publications basically involve false or harmful statements that are communicated to someone other than the person being libeled. It can involve anything from a text or article that’s copied and spread to only a few, or through an online or physical newspaper article with multitudes of subscribers. It’s libel when those efforts expose any person or group of persons to hatred, humiliation, disgrace, contempt or mockery. Or, when it injures any person’s reputation and causes them to be eschewed or avoided. Or, when it injures their work or occupation. Libel is not protected by freedom of speech!

Certainly, anything that’s provable isn’t libel. But this article isn’t about what’s provable; it’s about the precise opposite, it’s about a total disregard for both real facts and the resulting damage done to innocent person’s lives in the deceptive pretense of investigative journalism. It’s about the premeditated libelous efforts of an online blogger named Be Scofield, who has for the last nine years gotten away with, and scammed her public viewers into believing she is “the chosen one”, the “toxic spirituality” watchdog for the world, who is fittingly beyond reproach and sanctioned by the US, First Amendment.

You might ask; if it’s defamation, why has she been able to go on with it so long? Why hasn’t she been stopped? The answer rests in understanding the distinctions between our US civil and criminal laws. Civil cases typically involve private disputes between persons or groups. Criminal cases involve activities that are considered harmful to society as a whole, and are subsequently deliberated as offenses against the city, state, county, or federal government, which thenceforth involves governmental jurisdiction of prosecution. Libel is a civil crime. In simpler terms, if you’ve been defamed, don’t expect your government to come to your aid. It’s up to you, the claimant, to bring the offender to court through an attorney. And, if you are like the majority of US citizens, you don’t have six months to a year of legal processing time, and many thousands of dollars to redistribute into your attorney’s bank accounts… Need I say more?

In Be Scofield’s unique paradigm, it’s even more complicated and difficult. She rarely stays in one place long, and never answers her phone. She does this specifically to make it close to impossible to serve her. On balance, the average citizen doesn’t have the able means governmental law enforcement does. She brags about being an outlaw digital strategist. Which I’ll begrudgingly admit; she’s fairly good at. She researches and surfs the web using an untraceable VPN, and posts her defaming articles on FB, (Mark Zuckerberg unfailingly doesn’t care about online libel), and on her Gurumag website that she set up in Iceland, outside US jurisdiction. She’s created a shady alliance with a number of malefactor conspiracy theorists who have similar websites, that more than eagerly post anything she sends them. She has an abundance of aliases, which she deceptively uses to comment admiringly on her own posts for all to faun over, and digitally blocks anyone who might comment against her favor. She crowd-funds regularly for cash, which she salts with a few falsified donations under her own aliases, just to get things rolling, all the while feigning a suffering lifestyle. That’s a fairly effective strategy that took her several years to perfect.

I was recently contacted by a sharp-minded private investigator that lightheartedly referred to himself as “Sleuth Legalos.” After reading one of my recent articles that named Scofield, he hoped to make use of any material I might have gathered. After a bit of back-and-forth laughter and an abundance of humorous sarcasm, I realized he was far more informed than I was. Which led me to ask if he knew how much of her online profile is real.

He answered, “It’s hard to say. But, an increase in background chatter in her sway of influence conspicuously suggests that a few of her closer allies either have knowledge of, or are catching on to more going on monetarily than meets the public eye. It appears her crowd funding may just be a clever cover that supports her carefully strategized underdog championing profile. It appears there might be a stealth company of wealthy religious fanatics, and possibly a few foreign entities, who are secretly funding her unique needs that are committed to the downfall of any newly emerging or highly influential spiritual groups. In particular, subsidizing her travel fees, housing and food costs, digital expenses, and if ever needed, any legal costs. If true, her crowd funding effectively serves as a laundering scam that explains her ability to always have the required funds to do what she intends.” 

As I am writing this, I can’t help wonder if the IRS has any tax forms they’d like to send her?

For those of you who don’t yet know who Be Scofield is, which is very likely, she’s a transgender writer who fancies herself to be a guru destroyer or spiritual group nightmare Journalist. Though blogger would be a more apt term. In a few instances she’s been fairly successful in causing very real reputation damage to the persons or groups she targets. But more often than not, she’s shrugged off as insignificant. Which would be more frequent if her strategy was a bit less honed to take advantage of her target’s follower’s viewing influence. Due to Google’s algorithms and “Cambridge Analytics” brand of tracking policies, anyone who can get enough attention, regardless of how or why, quickly climbs in Google’s search engine ranking. That’s the unfortunate outcome of Google’s commercial aspiration to get what it blindly believes you want into your online searches. Equally, regardless of the obvious, too many people continue to misguidedly believe if it’s on the Internet it must be true, particularly if it’s dark and scandalous. After all, who would dare to openly publish something libelous? Their material would certainly get pulled down and they’d be sued, —right? Well no! Just about anyone can lie up a storm and say just about anything they want on the Internet —and get away with it. Especially if they belong to Facebook, or have a website located outside US jurisdiction, and are effectively able to dodge being served any legal subpoenas.

Be Scofield first caught my attention when she posted a hit piece on her Gurumag website on Bentinho Massaro. I’d previously been contacted by a Microsoft buddy from Seattle asking if I’d consider doing a piece on him as “an inspiring rising star and newest phenomenon in the corporate guru world.” I told him I’d look into it. Before I’d gotten two steps into my research, I learned people were already blindsided, stunned, and agape at what just happened. What most surprised me wasn’t so much that Scofield had written her poorly executed attack on Massaro, filled with obvious nonsense, it was that so many of his mainstream viewers ran headlong into her takedown strategy, carefully reading her trashy fiction as if somehow it had some measure of merit to it. As a result, regardless of Scofield’s distinct lack of journalistic savoir-faire, she went from virtually unknown and insignificance, to close to 200,000 readers in only a few weeks. Readers she later fraudulently claimed were her followers. No, they weren’t her followers! She actually caters only to a paltry few who cling to her like a demigod from a malice-spewing dreamland! Those were all Massaro’s followers trying to sort out what was going on. Unfortunately for Massaro, Google’s AI analytics kicked in and shot her threadbare blog site into a much higher level of search engine rankings. It is precisely here where we might take a moment to consider the very real dangers posed by Google’s merciless surveillance analytics.

Honestly, I was moderately shocked myself. Here was a guy who had no previous criticisms to speak of, who was universally admired, had a devoted following of highly intelligent people, and was philosophically in tune with our times, —who was suddenly thrown against the wall as if he had committed some kind of unforgivable crimes. My first impression was genuinely curious, why would anybody take Scofield’s toxic rants seriously? Her piece was so easily discernable as contrived prattle spiked with obviously bogus sensationalism, faked quotes, wild insinuations and loads of misdirected facts. Regrettably, after she published, Massaro didn’t stand up and fight, even after his corporate gigs were canceled due to their shareholder’s fear of a scandal. He could easily have proven libel damages and taken Scofield down then and there. Instead, he retreated back home to mom and pop in the Netherlands. I would have preferred he would first have considered taking a few coaching lessons from Tony Robbins. Notwithstanding, I sincerely recommend that you take the time to read the below article written by Alexander Vera.

As she commonly does, Scofield infiltrated incognito into one of Massaro’s symposiums to drudge up any material she might use to smear his image. Having spoken directly to a few individuals who met and conversed with Scofield, I learned that she had premeditatedly come with an agenda to feverishly persecute Massaro; and was fully prepared to brand him as an evil cult leader, with no foreknowledge of what he taught or believed. When she negatively prodded a few of Massaro’s Symposium attendees for the goods, if any of them tried to say anything that countered her assertions, she quickly brushed them off as ill-informed and brainwashed, and moved on in search of someone more pliable. She openly brags in her hit piece that she was urged on by some kind of higher providence that she received while lying in her bed that caused her to shimmy and shake until she succumbed to her call to destiny.

She wrote, “I laid on my bed and felt a cosmic download. My body was overwhelmed with tingles from head to toe. My body started to shake. I couldn’t move. I felt surges of power pulsing through me. I just knew it. I had to stop this guy.”

That sounds suspiciously like cult babble, if you ask me. On the other hand, she did first consult her astrologer-lieutenant, MelaLuna Moonbeam, in Asheville, North Carolina, for the best star-time to assault Massaro. 

Scofield’s attack on Massaro was nothing short of an old-fashioned Catholic inquisitional witch burning, camouflaged in a pretense of Journalistic watchdog news. In her article, she used pictures of Massaro colored up in a Halloween Joker costume to make him appear as if that was his secretly dark profile. Then persecuted his principles along with his right to believe, as if that freedom was in some way a crime against God. The right to believe in any way, or not to believe is, by the way, everyone’s freedom, established in our US Bill of Rights as an essential human safeguard against bigoted people like Be Scofield. 

She openly revealed to numerous persons her pre-planned intentions to ruin Massaro’s reputation by whatever means necessary, regardless of what she might unearth. Did Massaro not recognize, possibly being a Netherland born man, and not being familiar with US law, that in the US that’s the very definition of civil malice, and exactly what he needed to sue her for defamation. Prior to witnessing what she did and wrote on Massaro, never had I witnessed such a devious and abusive use of journalism, done for the purpose of smearing a target individual just to get the attention she desired to further her online image. Unhappily, her online abuses didn’t stop there. Massaro’s story only emboldened her to do worse works thereafter. 

It’s necessary to mention that Scofield predictably recycles a few of her prime sensationalism tactics that she uses to attack her targets. She uses accusative catchword terms like cult, guru, and sexual abuse more than any other. Why? Because they’re highly targeted or pursued on the Internet. But notably, there’s an all too obvious contradiction in her sexual abuse accusations, which anyone might discover if they ever chose to delve deeper into Scofield’s secret personal pastimes. “Pussywitch,” a self-styled sex instructor, whose real name is Sara Luna Dietrich, is one of Scofield’s staples. Sara has written a series of sex blogs like “Fuck Foreplay”, “Wildest Fantasies,” “Loving Fiercely,” “BDSM,” “Period Sex,” and “Transforming Pussy Pain into Pleasure,” to name only a few. Don’t get me wrong; I’m not puritanistic, or in any way judgmental of people’s sexual preferences, but Scofield is passionate about Pussywitch, and at the same time equally passionate about bashing any spiritual persons or groups who show the slightest liberty in their sexual attitude, which she uses unabashedly to emphasize her sell. That spiritual people are all opportune perverts. She attacks them with a zest, with exception given to those sex groups she herself attends. According to one woman I spoke with, who we’ll just name Cindy, who claims to know her and her habits intimately, Scofield is a demonstrable sex addict, who spends most of her off time in extreme pseudo Tantra sex workshops, multi-partner bacchanalia, and indulging in her special sexual rubdown massages. Now before you go off and claim, I might be doing my own brand of bashing here, I want to assure you, unlike Scofield, I checked and double checked all of my sources. I don’t insinuate and don’t twist facts to suite an agenda. I had these statements confirmed by at least two other Scofield amigos. This knowledge did not come from her enemies; it was given to me uncoerced from her slightly disenchanted acquaintances. I bring this up, not because I’m calling out any odd sexual behavior. I am bringing it up because she just recently published her full out online attack on another spiritual guru, Mooji. That she claims is a ruthless sexual predator, who has way too much sex, and lives promiscuously with numerous young women in his Portuguese compound. Before you jump to any conclusions about Mooji, please take into account that Scofield is a serial liar who presents her stories with little-to-no-regard for the truth. She attacks these groups primarily to get the press coverage that results from the commotion she generates when tossing about those highly attractive and favored search engine terms, in this case all three, sexual abuse, cult, and guru.

Approximately a year ago, when travelling through Portugal, I spent a couple of days visiting Mooji’s “compound.” And, I’ll confess, it did call up memories of those long-ago hippie free love rebellions, along with my early memories of when my parents shared their kid stories of the love generation and Woodstock. I could easily accept that the people visiting or staying there, young and old, were fully dedicated to that kind of free revolution lifestyle. No one there was twisting their arms to stay. In fact, all the visitors I came in contact with were relatively joyous.

I haven’t concluded my research on Scofield’s assault on Mooji yet. It’s a complicated mess and a networking nightmare to wade through. But, after viewing and dissecting Scofield’s mean and determined hit-piece article, I was again shaking my head in disbelief.  How in the world could any intelligent reader get through all that phony Scofield psychobabble and not walk away feeling dirtied? I want to make it clear, Scofield has never met Mooji, and undoubtedly, by what she indicates in her article has never read or watched anything he has written or taught open-mindedly. I’m personally not a fan of Mooji’s Advaita, but I can quite easily allow anyone’s right to believe. Scofield focused on one thing alone; write anything, regardless of how preposterous it may be, to shade Mooji in a bad light. Plainly nothing fresh or unusual for her there! She filled her pages with wild sexual conspiracies, and verifiably false witnesses, while outright attempting to misdirect her readers away from any real or genuine critical thinking. There’s not one iota of neutral honest journalism in her entire article.

Scofield regularly pokes her nasty stick at anyone she can find who may get her some press. Which speaks into Sleuth Legolas’s notion, that her agenda may be secretly much broader than just a few guru takedown efforts. It unmistakably smacks of servicing a deeper more sinister agenda that includes doing damage to any charismatic spiritual leader or group who might exert an influence on our global free-thinking spiritual communities. Does that suggest a fear-driven agenda that works to keep people shackled to the world’s mind dominating religions? If so, then who does that actually serve?

The list of Scofield’s targets is extensive, including highly thought of and illustrious names like, Ken Wilber, Craig Hamilton, Byron Katie, Eckhart Tolle, Aaravindha Himadra, Mooji, Teal Swan, Terry Patten, Dali lama, Uma Inder, TJ Bartel, Andrew Barnes, Robert Masters, Padma Aon Prakasha and Alex Vartman. Please forgive me if I missed anyone. This does seem like quite a celebrated list that most any spiritual teacher would enjoy being part of, given any other circumstances.

Before Scofield’s assault on Mooji, she landed her mordant gaze on Aaravindha Himadra, another international spiritual teacher who she claims she pre-auditioned for an attack through her shimmy and shake download process. But not before announcing herself as “the most prominent writer in the world exposing cults and abusive gurus.” I am not yet sure how, or why anyone would want to compete with that entitlement?  My first thought when I read that was, should I be impressed or disgusted?

Her assault on Himadra was, in my opinion, nothing short of criminal. A “Frameup” is the legal term when someone knowingly tries to frame someone of a crime. Let me reiterate: In the US perpetrating a Frameup is criminal! In my professional journalistic perspective, that is precisely what Scofield tried to do with the help of two underhanded cohorts. Does she even realize that can lead to real jail time? I can see why she opted to go that way. I searched high and low through Himadra’s work profile, read his book, Immortal Self, read a few of his articles, and spoke with many people who either know him or are familiar with his teachings, and then read through an endless stream of testimonials, and couldn’t find anything that Scofield could have sunk her fangs in to justify her usual “Cult-Guru-Sex” attacks. I learned of only three or four embittered students who had over the last decade not moved on without first throwing a few punches, but there just wasn’t anything that stood out as cultish. I’m now convinced Scofield ran into that same lack of cult material. Consequently, she resorted to not only libel; she consorted criminally to do him as much harm as possible through inspiring a Frameup attempt.

Keep an eye out. I’ll be posting Himadra’s story, along with a few more Scofield’s victims in a follow-up article, which I’ll publish under my new copyrighted title:

“Mother Justice, —How Be Scofield Duped Her!”

I am aware that Himadra is presently suing Scofield for Civil defamation, which has kept him precautious and watchful with what he was willing to reveal. In our phone conversation, he apologetically stated, “I’m not at liberty to disclose too much at this time, due to the potential of any leaked information acting as interference to our legal suit.” He also indicated he’s not interested in vengeance for what she did, or in any way looking to punish her. He simply wants to set things right. I can certainly appreciate that, but honestly, —a little vengeance might give some of her other past victims some worthwhile relief.

I haven’t concluded my research yet, there’s quite a bit yet to do. But I can definitely say I hadn’t previously seen her go to such extreme lengths in online trickery as she did in her effort to destroy Himadra’s reputation. She strove to Frameup Himadra in a heinous crime that didn’t actually happen fourteen years ago. She completely twisted up the suicide death of a 52-year-old woman, Carla Jean Shaffer, who the Himadra’s had only come to know cursorily. The Himadras knew Carla, but she was apparently a relatively new acquaintance, who the Himadra’s had minimal contact with. The case was closed fourteen years ago, after an extensive investigation, which is common in situations like that. Himadra was never considered a person of interest when the investigation was in force. He had absolutely no motive and no opportunity. But that didn’t stop Scofield. She chose to blatantly ignore the lawful verdict on the cause of death, which clearly stated, no drugs and no foul play. She decided in its stead to rewrite history to conveniently suit her plans. Scofield cooked up the theater, the settings, and many of the characters in her article to convince her audience that the law was wrong, and her “special” divination method of astrology, quivering surges, and preposterous false testimonials, were the real deal.

More’s information is coming in my collection of follow-up stories, so I’ll keep this short. The first attempt Scofield perpetrated was to cast Himadra as dubious, by quoting a few statements he had made about Miss Shaffer, a select few of which contradicted a long-term student’s comments. As it turns out, that student, who I’ll call David, was not in-the-know. He apparently was only guessing offhandedly when he offered his answers to Scofield’s deceptively disguised phone interview. Later, after a longer and more careful effort to remember back fourteen years, he corrected those answers on his own volition. Once David read her published online hit piece, he felt deeply regretful for being duped, and recorded his more properly considered answers under oath in an affidavit that he sent Himadra and his lawyers. That affidavit apparently reads entirely in favor, rather than in contradiction to Himadra’s statements. Scofield refused to publish that fact, and also refused to remove the false contradictory answers because they better complemented her agenda. Her second attempt was to use a cohort’s quote and a few senseless insinuations that accused Himadra of an attack that took place in Miss Shaffer’s Orcas Island home that inevitably served as a forerunner to Miss Shaffer’s death. —Another provable lie. Himadra and his wife were away during the time of Miss Shaffer’s ill-fated incidents. They were away on a teaching tour in Europe for those two months when Miss Shaffer had undergone those traumas. Even though the Himadras had unmitigated passport evidence and witnesses that confirmed their long absence, Scofield pressed on with her lies. Scofield’s debauchery goes on and on in her hit piece on Himadra, with her predictable unrelenting air that indicates she will do anything to destroy any spiritual leader’s reputation, even to the point of criminality, in an ostensibly blind duty to something that’s still a half-lit mystery to me. Could this have something to do with Legolas’s investigation? Or is it due to some unremitting anger toward God? I can’t honestly say.

What I learned while writing this, and what surprises me to no end, is that very soon after Himadra’s lawyer served Scofield her lawsuit summons, she very quickly mustered up a high-powered pro bono attorney, named Tim Cunningham. This oddity not only vexes me, it throws my usual sense of reliable logic into a WTF tailspin. —Why? What right-minded lawyer would do that? He must have been either blind in reading her online menagerie of articles, or is desperately driven for media attention. Or is he just a dedicated Scofield fan? Or is there some other secret influential voice of authority spurring him on?

For me, the problem uncovered here, goes far beyond Scofield, or this retro-trend of attacking our freedom to choose what we want to believe. The real issue our online readers must face now is unquestionably how do we as a free society keep our liberty of press honest and clean in our online communities that are increasingly assailed by those fake news journalists like Scofield? Mind and emotion manipulators, who so willingly foul the playing field for their own ailing agendas? This is no easy task! What if we fail? What are the consequences when we can no longer trust in the good works of those genuinely dedicated few that would give us the real news and knowledge we require? To learn, act on, and guide our future course. What will become of us as a free society if we allow those odious bigots, who would so maliciously tread on our natural human right to believe to triumph? There’s a clear and distinct bash-um’ fashion haunting our collective awareness today. It’s time we ask, who is controlling that? Are you aware enough to step back, to think for yourselves, or is it already too late? Have you already succumbed to the mind deafening assaults of those online fear manipulators who threaten to control the free collective through their strategically deceptive tactics?

  1. I think you are on to something here. At first I thought she’s exposing abusive gurus but since she has started to go after one spiritual teacher after the other, even the big names like Eckart Tolle, Byron Katie and the Dalai Lama, it’s obvious that her agenda is going against all modern alternative spirituality. I am just not sure if it’s the fame she’s craving or if she’s just the tool of some other hidden agenda.

  2. Everything about her is faked. I’m not sure her transgender stats are even real. Who knows? She’s a circus all to herself. I’m queer and proud. I don’t fake anything. I know a guy-gal who shagged the “Be-trans” one night in SF. Told me she undressed as a trans and redressed later as a man. Go figure that one out?

  3. This is a really good article. I get it now why her articles always show the same hyperbole comments. Bravo Baxter! Looking forward to your followup.

  4. If I ever want to know more good spiritual teachers now I can find out thru this Scofield human being. The ones that are attacked are doing good work. Definetely taking information out of context, screwing it, exagerating it is highly reprobable journalism.
    I read this article and I take the time to acknowledge it.
    Well written and said.

  5. My wife, who I don’t overlap all my beliefs with, shared an online course she took that Scofield offered on cults. I only have one word for that, garbage! Such obvious bullshit! I thought there has to be something intelligent in it somewhere. No, there wasn’t, not even a glimpse of it. What universe is this weirdo from? It was so unbelievably hate oriented.

  6. I really find this all fascinating! Not that Be Scofield’s articles don’t have any merit to them. That’s obvious! They’re so utterly BS, like her initials secretly try to tell you. What fascinates me is that she managed to get so much attention. Is it because the people she attacks in her articles have so many followers that just can’t keep themselves from reading her garbage? Are those her actual readers, people just like you and me who try to make sense of her attacks on really interesting people? Or is it that she’s somehow tapping into our culturally ingrained need to be entertained with the macabre, regardless if its true or not? What this most reminds me of, is that super good liar we all once knew growing up in America that always got away with everything, because they could just lie so well.

  7. I read a few days ago, on another blog site,, that she sexually abused a kid nine years ago, before she turned Trans. Not surprised. I went to her Gurumag site too. Why would anyone work so hard to ruin other people’s choices about spiritual awareness? She brags there about being the baddest cult hunter in the world. Compared to who? It’s not like the bar is set very high there, and there’s a long list to compare that to. Really, who would want that job? And the crap she writes? What a dark universe that crackpot lives in. I hope she gets hers soon.

  8. When will the world wake up to this Phony and her hate cult? Be Scofield is everything she claims to be against. We live in such a weird world today. Where we let our desires for entertainment go this dark. Are we so gullible as a society, that we just can’t see the Bullsh*t that people like her push.

  9. Why aren’t there more articles like this one? Why is veryone so ready to believe a few cyber climbers like Scofield, over the people she shits on. Everyone these days is so consumed with how they are totally ready to pounce on and destroy the work of people who don’t march to the beat of their drummer. Are we really that small minded as an American society now, that we resort to the Socfields for her kind of bullshit over letting people follow whoever they want. These are not Jimmie Jones people that are being hit. Grow up you asshole critics. Start a little acceptance and tolerance.

  10. As we both know, the journalistic standard for corroborating a story is two independent sources or one reliable source with physical or documentary evidence.

    So far, you have only one person recanting, a male who related a second hand account.

    As far as I can tell, none of her female sources, not anyone who has made a direct claim of abuse, has recanted.

    When you compile that list of recanters, I take you more seriously. Otherwise, this is all unfounded opinion.

    I must say, though, it was a very well written hit piece!

    1. I was rightly slammed here because I don’t offer much in the way of personal information involving my sources. I can’t justly disagree. Any well written article would be more solid if the sources were broader and more openly revealed. Named sources give credibility. Unfortunately, we’re not dealing here with a standard arena for due reporting, owing to the severe blowback that would most certainly come from Scofield and her hit crew. It would be serious, harmful, and possibly deadly to my sources. I often offer my guarantee, promising them if they choose to remain anonymous, I’ll fully respect their choices. I also take sound measures to assure those sources are not fake. And I follow up with more research.

      Those that truly know Scofield also know she’s eager to do online smear campaigns against anyone who might criticize or oppose her. She’s eager to do them against anyone that might get her more attention. She has a small crew of fanatics who are ready to help her with that. This above comment also suggests I wrote the article in question as a hit piece on her. There’s a fine line there. From an outside perspective, it certainly smacks of a hit piece, for sure. But, this piece, as are the other pieces I have done on her, are all factual. They are not trumped nonsense, like the deceptive trash she uses to do her hit pieces on her targets. My suggestion is that you consider the same when reading her work. 90% of her sources are not named, or are for a cultured reader, quickly realized as fakes. I suggest going the extra mile. Don’t use my work as your yea or any wand of truth. Do a little research for yourself. Talk to the Scofield’s actual victims, rather than languishing critically in the shade of her self-aggrandized successes.

      You are absolutely correct. I don’t like her. I find Scofield to be all that is wrong with our online social community. Were it not for FB’s willingness to harbor hate groups, unchecked, she’d be long gone. And, I’d have one less story to write. You stated I seem to be singling Scofield out. It does look that way. But she is only a symptom of a much larger problem. I have no personal agenda with her, but I have the time and energy needed to work part time for social restitution. Exposing Scofield is only a small glimpse into my larger scope of work, which isn’t posted here on this journal. I’m often bored with her work, and had occasioned the idea of moving on, and then someone else writes me something new and terrifying about her efforts, and I pick up my travel worn laptop again and write her name in it.
