Ed. Note: Despite the dread felt by almost everyone that he might not, or possibly might, recover from COVID 19, it now appears that Bangkok has indeed recovered and apparently what did not kill him made him meaner. Here is his latest post. In it, he has laid down the gauntlet, challenging Suneel Chakravorty to put up or shut up — provide something like proof or evidence or a reasonable explanation to back up his assertion that the FBI, widely known as being incapable of lying, and the Department of Justice, even more widely known as supreme truth-tellers, might have conspired in some manner to plant bogus evidence to convict Keith Alan Raniere. Now, it becomes a matter of honor, for the challenge has been made and Suneel like Bangkok, live by the sword.
By Bangkok
Frank, can you please ask Suneel to explain WHO he thinks “planted” and “backdated” the child porn photos of Cami on Keith Raniere’s computer?
Does he think law enforcement did it?
The EDNY and FBI were in charge (not local police) —- so is he saying that the FBI and EDNY conspired to ‘plant’ child porn photos?
If so, how did the FBI get a hold of these child porn photos of Cami, on their own, without fetching them from Keith’s computer?
Did they secretly conspire with Cami too? LOL.
Does Suneel really believe that the FBI phoned Cami, then asked her to provide them with nude photos from more than a decade ago? LOL.
How would the FBI had known that such photos actually existed and were still in existence so many years later?
What ‘mechanism’ would explain how law enforcement got a hold of those child porn photos, other than suggesting that the FBI and Cami conspired together to break the law and frame an innocent man? LOL.
Cami also testified (at Keith’s sentencing) that Keith raped her when she was underage, right?
Does Suneel believe that Cami is just making that up, whole cloth?
So, according to Suneel, every witness and FBI agent were lying —- and Keith was the only person telling the truth. Even though Keith was shown (via emails) to be a recurrent liar, openly lying to nearly every woman he ever spoke to.
BTW: If the FBI was really willing to ‘plant’ evidence against Keith, they could have planted far more things inside his home during the raid (like massive amounts of cocaine or heroin, automatic weapons, more excess unreported cash, LOL).
If the FBI was in ‘planting’ mode, LOL, why would they stop at a few photos of Cami? …and nothing else?
I’d like Suneel to provide a reasonable explanation of how the photos of Cami were acquired & planted by the FBI.
If not, you should refuse to publish anything else he writes. This is a fair request. If he asserts something, he needs to provide a believable explanation for it, with plausible details.
Do your job as a journalist and get these answers. Or burn in hell.
PS — If Suneel believes that Cami (or another NXIVM member) single-handedly planted the photos before the raid by law enforcement, how would they have known that a raid was coming?
I just don’t see any PLAUSIBLE explanation for the ‘planting’ theory, other than suggesting that several different FBI agents were involved, along with Cami, along with others too, LOL.
These weren’t just ‘anonymous’ porn photos (like with John Tighe’s case) — they were photos of Cami. So that makes ‘planting’ them much more difficult, without a huge conspiracy.
Have a good day.
Even if Suneel is just alleging ‘backdating’ by law enforcement and not ‘planting’ — that scenario would still require a HUGE conspiracy between agents of the FBI and members of the EDNY. Cami would also have to be part of that conspiracy (because if those photos were backdated, she’d be lying to law enforcement by not correcting that fact).
Again, I just don’t see how Suneel can provide a plausible explanation to fit his square peg into a round hole.

[…] In this article, I will respond to Bangkok’s challenge regarding the claim of evidence tampering. […]
It’s my understanding that Camila did not testify under oath but only submitted a victim statement. This is not sworn testimony nor is it available for cross examination.
So she was never made available to testify under oath that the pictures were of her and Keith took them when she was 15.
Why not?
It is my understanding that no one testified under oath in Keith Raniere’s defense.
No. One. Nada. Zilch. Zero. Nobody.
Why not?
Shockingly, I also agree with Bangkook’s post. Suneel has an inabiltiy to think logically when it comes to what KR spews at him. I also am on board that you should refuse to publish anything else Suneel writes for this blog until he learns to back up his words with facts, not speculation as has been his pattern. This IS a fair request.
I’m always a little concerned when I find myself agreeing with anything that Bang-tard writes but he is spot-on regarding this request to Suneel. Of course, this is the same Suneel who promised back in January to provide back-up information regarding the 44 “legal issues” he has identified concerning Keith Raniere’s arrest, prosecution and conviction — and who, thus far, has provided zero, zip, zilch, nada.
At best, Suneel will provide allegations and speculations about what might have happened. But he will most certainly not provide any proof to back those up.
This is all character building and your manner is honourable. Saying the words ‘spot on’ in relation to a Banck post must not have come easy but you will reap the rewards internally. Now, can Mr B tell you he appreciates the support? 😁
A restless mentality does not take the time, the effort or the concentration to witness, to watch over, its own thought content. Instead it lacks impulse control, which is simply self-discipline, the persistent discipline to observe, and very intently, what is true, and what is inaccurate or untrue. Within the self and “outside” of the self, one must demand of oneself real vigilance. There is no halfway. Halfway to nowhere can be a long, slow trip, though.
It is crucial to examine and to reexamine, with determination, the contents of one’s thought(s.) Relentlessly. Just the way that the tides of the oceans move unstoppably, examine the motion of your own concepts. Be reborn every moment, in other words. Strive to be true and distinct peace will arrive, a peace which is unconquerable, invincible, yet also effervescent and ever-new. It is free yet comes at a cost too.
So anyhow, the thought content of such a restless person is full to the brim with self-identification, and very often unawares. The “mind” of a pinball machine; whack your balls and see it go and go and go! And then it’s all over, folks.
Until the next big idea takes precedence with new, yet the same old bombastic noisiness. It is childish, but we indulge our children as they find their ways to think and to be, because our babies are our beloved seedlings who are sprouting, not stagnating.
Usually the self-identification being bruited about is, quite simply, couched in other words, words of judgementality, words of noise, words of restlessness, in and of itself without much depth or authentic value.
This stuff with “Bangkok” is another version of the voice of someone who is fearful but who is very invested in hiding, and in denying, his or her own fears and deep insecurities. This is transparent, albeit probably not to the noisy boy himself. Not yet.
Thoughts unexamined seem more impactful than they really are. Superficiality is given importance, but it is merely a sieve which leaks its value away alongside of its garbage. Chattering and yammering off on tangents, yet running like hell from the profundities of silence and of genuine and contemplative courageousness.
Alone and facing the naked face of the self. Ready. Willing. Able.
Or a self-caged creature throwing his or her same old shit at the bars of that cage. How frustrating that must be.
Two beautiful friends of mine have just died this week, both friends of more than forty years duration and both were born as passionate and very generous Aries babies.
One, an artist, incredible bon vivant and a born Cajun lived his last years in Guatemala. The other, who died in India following years of cancer, was such a nourisher of others that it’s beyond words to try to praise her adequately.
To these friends, I send thanks, respect and yes, love. Might as well also thank Bangkok today, for demonstrating such a contrasting way, or tao, of how to live and maybe, how it is best not to die. (Or of how I hope NOT to either live or die.) I very much do not want to waste this chance to live and to learn. No matter what comes or what goes.
It seems in most cases, we come here born alone and we are are borne away from here in much the same manner.
Whatever else we do or say, let us not miss the chance life has given each one of us, to learn. Start with not knowing. Settle for nothing more or less.
These quiet words of guidance I keep inside of my heart here and now, yet how easily ignored these few words have been and are. But then I have been a slow, stupid, stubborn and egotistical learner. Yup! Still in school, too, ffs.
“Physician, heal thyself.” Use yourself up and never give up. You cannot really give up, regardless of how much you might try or want to try giving up. There is no end, you see. What a blending it is.
Ooh, I did not get in enough good cussing here. Soooo
Fuckie fuckie fuck! Heh heh!
Namaste and g’day, Shavani. Don’t mind Banger, just a rascal beating his mommy’s pans on his head. But some of his more imbalanced friends are a sorry lot of crooks and kooks, bigtime, and they ain’t playin’ checkers. Maybe Russian Roulette with a BB gun?
Beautiful post. Thanks.
Exactly. No one except someone whose mind had been warped by a cult would believe that the loyal few are saying.
The FBI nor the DOJ needed to manipulate or fabricate fuck all. This human piece of garbage did their jobs for them.
Now my only hope is he’s being used as a human pin cushion. 😊
Keith is either lying or angling something whenever his mouth moves.
Suneel has decided to believe Keith’s moving mouth (with the one exception of his bio – guess cause it was written down and not spoken…huh???). In Suneel’s mind, the real liars are every underaged girl who has disclosed Vanguards pattern of statutory rape.
Damn SATs should have included questions that required common sense.
Watch for an effort to get Clemency for Raniere
Biden set to flex clemency powers
White House officials are signaling that President Biden is prepared to flex his clemency powers as officials wade through a large backlog of requests behind the scenes, according to advocates with whom the White House has consulted on criminal justice reform.
The White House held a Zoom call last week to discuss criminal justice reform with advocates and formerly incarcerated people, some of whom are pressing Biden to use his powers to free people jailed on drug offenses and sick and elderly people who pose no threat to society.

Oh Frank, Frank, Frank. The point here isn’t that the FBI is incapable of lying or that the DOJ is always scrupulously honest. The point is, how would the FBI get porn pictures of 15 year old Cami, years after the fact? And even if we fantasize about the guv’mint having a time machine in their diabolical arsenal of magical artifacts, how to account for the fact that Cami herself says Raniere had sex with her when she was 15 and and that he took pictures? Not a lawyer in his right mind would argue Suneel’s speculation about the pictures being planted when Cami is available to testify on the matter.
The idea that the guv’mint planted them on Raniere’s computer is logically absurd and flies in the face of all evidence. It is a logical impossibility.
I find myself in rare agreement with Bangkok when he writes:
“ … you should refuse to publish anything else he writes. This is a fair request. If he asserts something, he needs to provide a believable explanation for it, with plausible details.”
Flat Earthers do not deserve equal time with actual astronomers to argue their case. The idea that there is a government conspiracy to “get” Raniere was interesting once upon a time. I mean, it IS possible. But Raniere’s defenders have got nothing. Nada, nil, zilch, zero. They will talk the ear off a dog with the same baseless nonsensical arguments, going down the same blind alley again and again. All they have proven is their own undying loyalty to a sex trafficking racketeering felon.
The idea that evidence was planted is a red herring. It sounds possible until the circumstances are looked at. Speculating about prosecutorial corruption is another red herring. I mean, it’s possible, right? And a certain dumbass element of the population is always eager to believe “the guv’mint” is a tool of Satan, rotten to the core, and behind all manner of evil conspiracies.
That’s the same dumbass element that’s ripe for joining cults.
Speculation isn’t proof. Accusations aren’t proof. If the pictures were planted, let’s see some proof. If there was prosecutorial misconduct, let’s see some evidence of it. Months ago the Frank Report gave Suneel the chance to present his evidence, and all we’ve gotten are these red herrings. Well they’ve stopped flapping around and now they’re just lying there in the sun starting to stink.
Nicki writes on Twitter:
If I wrote a book called, “How the government tried to groom me into a sex slave,” do you think it would sell?
Perhaps someone should report this tweet (along with others written in a similar vein) to the FBI and/or the DOJ along with the fact that Nicki’s marriage to Allison was a Raniere-induced sham to stay in the country. The same country the government of which she mocks and criticizes nearly every day using the free speech rights granted to legitimate US citizens while living unethically and illegally within its borders as a non-citizen. Then when members of its law enforcement put handcuffs around her self-righteous little wrists and boot her out of the country, we can see just how pompous she really is.
NXIVM “education” really knows how to create some awful people: selfish, smug, exclusive, deceitful, inconsiderate, destructive, time-wasteful, and obviously lacking in critical thought while thinking they exhibit it.
Knowing Raniere’s proclivity for pedophilia, note the 22 year old girl he molested in 1990, the odds are that the child porn is real and belonged to Raniere.

Former Oregon House Speaker Dave Hunt cited in sex trafficking sting
The Democratic former speaker of Oregon’s House of Representatives was one of eight men nabbed in a sex trafficking sting by police last month, a local newspaper reported Monday.
According to the Portland Tribune, which cited a portion of the police report, 53-year-old David Hunt was arrested at a Ramada Inn in Southeast Portland on April 28 and cited on a charge of commercial sexual solicitation.
On Monday, Clackamas Community College announced that Hunt was taking a leave of absence from its Board of Education and vowed to “take appropriate actions that serve the interest of our students and our community.”

He is doing what big tobacco was doing about the health risks of tobacco, what big oil is doing about the risks of CO2 in the atmosphere, what agrochemical companies did/are doing when nicotinoids made bees extinct. It is called FUD.
It is the modus operandi of many “conservative” media, too. Look at the idiot Alex Jones.
