Shawn Christy responds to charges that he threatened to rape Palin's daughter.

I may not have mentioned this before but I am Facebook friends with Shawn.

We have even spoken on the phone once, and he freely admitted that he had made some stupid mistakes in the past because he thought some of the incidents that happened to him were the fault of the government. And when his letters and e-mails were ignored he started to send threats to President Obama, John McCain, and yes Sarah Palin, thinking that would make them pay attention to him.  And it did! 

However he contends he NEVER planned to hurt anybody. And in fact he was checked out by the FBI, the Secret Service and his own local police force, and NO ONE considered him to be a legitimate threat.

No one, that is, except Sarah Palin. (And no, the story of Christy having been arrested while he was up here in February is NOT true!)

Christy seems to have some difficulty separating fact from fantasy, but he strikes everybody who speaks to him as a relatively harmless young man with some mental and emotional challenges.

I reached out to Shawn via Facebook to ask him if he had seen the article and to give me a heads up as to what is going on.  Here is his reply.

Yeah read it. I spoke with Palin's attorney Tiemessen last Friday, he said there was a letter mailed 60 miles from where I live that was magazine words taped together, something about Willow, I didn't send it and I told him that... now my parents have restraining orders (against) them also, thanks for the heads up,

SRC

Now at this point it is only Shawn's word against Palin's.  However I should point out that in my discussion with Shawn on the phone he did not once deny or water down the seemingly crazy things he was accused of doing.  He admitted all of them, and even told me about a few other things that I did not know about as well.

Like I said Shawn says some pretty outrageous things, but he also seemed to be fairly honest about them.  And in my estimation, and that of the FBI, Secret Service, and the Anchorage police, he does NOT pose any real danger to anybody. Including Sarah Palin.

You know our President receives up to 30 death threats a day, but all Sarah Palin has is this one poor young man to try and turn into the Zodiac Killer so that she can play the victim.

I certainly hope he and his parents DO have a restraining order against her, I believe he has much more to fear from her, than she does from him.  These allegations she is making against him, if indeed false and I will bet they are, should be more than enough reason for him to hire a lawyer and sue her ass for slander.

  1. I hope Shawn is getting some therapy to work out his emotional issues, and as long as he is honest about his issues and doesn't run afoul of Alaska stalker laws, I wish him well. It is precisely because Sarah has made this such a huge dill that I'm not terribly concerned that this young man is dangerous. He has been totally checked out by numerous law enforcement agencies and yet he is not in jail. What does that tell you?

  2. Now that's what I call journalism! You approached the source directly and asked the right questions.

    We know this is all an attempt by SP to distract from the babygate story AT LAST hitting the main stream.

    We know that when the Tod/Hooker story was in the NE, SP suggested that someone should just ask Tod directly about this story.

    So, how about some "reporters" and "journalists" simply asking SP directly--- 'Did Trig Palin issue forth from your very specific and special womb, Sarah Palin? You know, the very same uterus from which you brought us Track, Bristol, Willow and Piper. Yeah, that womb."

    Sarah Palin is shameless. I'd even say she is truly evil. I hope the UK Daily Mail et al correct their story. Is there no young man Sarah Palin won't use or abuse to advance her agenda? Yet her own grubby delinquent kids get away with outrageous behavior.

    I hope a good lawyer steps in and sues Sarah Palin for the Christy family. Just because the letter was mailed 60 miles from where he lives doesn't mean he sent it. I don't believe Palin, she lies on a regular basis. Who knows if she had one of her bots do it for her as a way to distract the babygate story. Remember she was fanning herself and using Lou Sarah as an alias.

    I interpreted that as his parents having a restraining order against whomever sent the malicious magazine word taped onto paper message. But if they don't know who that was, then that's probably unlikely. Then again, what have the Palins done to the young man's parents that would rise to the level of a threat? So confusing.

    To be honest, I think he sounds like he might be in the early stages of schizophrenia; he would be about the right age to begin showing signs. And I do think if he becomes obsessed with an individual or convinced that this individual is a threat to him or standing in his way, he could become dangerous without proper treatment.

    I do not like Sarah Palin, but I think this is more than a case of this guy doing "stupid things." If he has mental illness and people are just ignoring it because he seems "harmless" right now, he could eventually become a danger to himself or others.

  16. So the Palins believe that the claimed existence of a letter supposedly mailed 60 miles from Shawn's house warrants a public accusation that Shawn Christie threatened to rape their daughter. Wow!

    This sounds like the work of Lou Sarah. I wonder how many people live or may have been traveling 60 miles from where Shawn lives and why the Palins are so certain it came from Shawn. Surely, they've turned the letter over to the FBI.

    As much as I loathe Palin, and believe she is exploiting this kid's mental illness to try to gain sympathy for herself and distract attention away from Babygate, I would not be so quick to dismiss his behavior as harmless. Delusional people who lose touch with reality can become dangerous loose cannons (exhibit A: Jared Laughner).

    I hope Shawn's parents ensure that he receives therapy. I'm sure their lives are not easy. But I don't think it's a good idea for Shawn's father to post so wildly on Facebook even if truth is on his side. This just draws more attention to Shawn at a time this family needs to be keeping a low profile, IMO.

    Words taped together? Tape is a wonderful recipient of fingerprints and sweaty DNA. Magazine paper is usually glossy, too. I don't see how anybody could cut out and tape down separate words without leaving lots of prints!

    A forensics team can also identify the magazine(s) which were cut up. Woman's Day or Gourmet or New Yorker would exonerate the kid.

If Shawn’s last name was Palin, he could of gotten away with the destruction of school property (school buses) and endangering the lives of children, he could of gotten away with Breaking and Entering, he could of gotten away with not attending school, if he was able to get pregnant Shawn could of made a lot of money and faked his way into becoming a public speaker with no college degree and with only a GED.

  46. There is a basic problem here. The young man appears to need some help, but who knows if he is capable of actual action. Sarah has yelled wolf so many times, that if some crazy person does finally go after her (heaven forbid), it will be too late because nobody believes anything she says anymore.We have one vindictive pathological liar up against a troubled young man. There may be no next chapter in this story, but what about the next nut? The last thing I want is for that crazy bitch to become a martyr. She needs to be taken out metaphorically so that some future nutball (no shortage of those) doesn't take her out for real. I wish no physical harm on the Palins. I just want them to shut the fuck up and crawl back under the slimy rock where they came from.

    This feels like a movie where you try to guess the ending at the beginning because the plot is so bad you don't want to be duped and the story line seems to be so predictable. Scara got caught rigging death threats to Obama after he won the election. Just like she was playing behind the scenes on a couple of other issues trying to force a certain outcome. She got caught, but had a scapegoat in Shawn--this seems to be what his dad is saying. He mentions that Shawn was not a stalker, but an informant?????? for the FBI. Maybe the FBI used Shawn to try to catch the person sending threats to Obama OR the FBI and scara, with McCain's help orchestrated a set up to frame Shawn to keep scara's record clean for her evil doings????/Isn't this fun.

    Ask Gryphen what he knows about false allegations of pedophilia.

    What about Palin's first book, where she claims her daughters were threatened with gang rape? Wouldn't a real Mama Grizzly report these threats to the police?

    And let's be very clear: the vast majority of people who suffer a schizophrenic type of illness are not violent. This is a tv and movie stereotype, largely. We do know of some highly-publicized and sometimes tragic examples, but by and large these folks are too overwhelmed by a pathology that essentially creates static in the mind. Very difficult to make it through the day, much less plan, or act on any plan.

    I am coming into this conversation very late, and don't know much about this guy except for having been vaguely aware of the story. If he is in fact developing mental illness, and the poster above correctly states his age is very typical of the onset of this kind of thing, then he needs medical treatment and therapeutic support.

    If all the authorities cleared him, they must believe that this is the situation, and that he is not a potential criminal. Sarah Palin and her clan are far too ignorant to have even a cursory understanding of these issues. Can't speak for the young man's father, but the families of these folks have a terrible time coping because the disease is hideous and life-ravaging.

    Not making assumptions, just acknowledging what the very first poster wrote. Law enforcement in this country is generally fairly well trained in psychological profiling, and they have a a lot of experience with people who have emotional issues and mental illness.

    If his father has been dealing with the Palin Lynch Mob for what appears to be 2 years as he mentions 2009 in FB posts, I'd be over the edge by now and would have already taken the Palins scumbags out.

    So cut the crap that the father is nuts as you would too if you had to deal with the Slut Palin and her lawyers who should be disbarred for corrupt practices.

    Second, Shawn doesn't have to and he sure doesn't need to sue. You are the last person this family is focusing on. Getting help for Shawn and loving him is their priority. Something you don't know nothing about considering your kids begging for the same from you psycho.

    Finally, remember what goes up will come crashing down, and you are about to hit rock bottom hard.

    An allegation of stalking does not mean this young man did anything. Innocent until proven guilty. Innocent until proven guilty. The evidence needed for a temporary restraining order is very minimal. The key word here is "proof." At the hearing for the longer term restraining order, $arah will have to prove the alleged threat came from Shawn.

    Correction, you forgot that we are dealing with Sarah Palin. If Sarah needs the Anchorage Police Dept to back up her story without proof, all she has to do is call in a favor from the APD and I am assuming it is the same way with the Anchorage judges.

    More seriously, it is very easy to surmise that this pasted-up letter mailed from 60 miles away could have been sent by a flying monkey responding to a Palin dog-whistle, as mentioned in a comment above. If young Christy's father actually posted those furious words on his Facebook wall, I wouldn't blame him one bit. His family has been battling the Palin mafia for years! I have a feeling that Gryphen will pursue this.

    This is not the first time we've heard of a momentous event involving 'the Feds' occurring the day before Palin resigned. A certain commenter here at IM has brought up similar allegations 2-3 times. Great job going to the source, Gryphen!

    he is under the care of specialists - apparently SP and her minions were able to get copies of his medical records and use them in the restraining orders.

    So, why can't anyone get copies of SP's medical records - surely they would also show she is under the care of specialists.

    You can find Willow Palin being treated for schizophrenia at the Nathan Kline Institute in Orangeburg, N.Y., by Dr. Levine. Risperdol has given her severe weight gain. Sarah Palin Heath is trying to cover up an affair with Shawn Christy in Feb-March 2009, blaming Willow and taking her for treatments she does not need. She is delusional and drunk with power and money. She is not one of us, just a fake.

I am looking to put out a book with the whole story so you can all make up your minds after you have read it all. In the mean time you can get small pieces at a time on Stand Strong Shawn Christy on Facebook. We will put information on there when we can. In the mean time I wanted you all to know that Sarah, Kristan Cole and her father Chuckie Heath also have restraining orders on my husband and myself.

    When I looked up the court cases involving Christy and Palin - I was surprised that there was one dated to have occurred in 2005 - well before her VP candidacy! I didn't find any info about what it was about - just the court date. I think maybe the Palins and Christys may have a past relationship either directly, or indirectly through a third party, or relative. Also, Craig Christy's friends are almost exclusively Alaskan - did they originally come from Alaska? Since I presume Mr. Christy is speaking to America at large, why the predominance of Alaskans there? What is the Nick Moe connection, especially with the Shailey Tripp/Lawes information - it seems someone else has wondered if there is some connection? It's just kind of weird. Also - I believe the primary motivation for the baby hoax is that initially Palin attempted to cover up Bristol's pregnancy, and that evolved into making lemons out of lemonade - and to get as much mileage out of the situation as possible - voila, appeals to far right Holy Rollers and her Pro Life base. There's no doubt Palin must have had some knowledge she might be selected as VP candidate. She could certainly not run on an Abstinence Only sex ed platform with an unwed 15 year old daughter - thus, especially after getting the nod - the baby hoax. I think Bristol became pregnant again, not long after giving birth to Trig. Trig was not born in April 08, but much earlier. Is it possible Tripp may have been born later than Dec 27, 08 - there must have been a reason not to present him until Feb 09. I haven't seen pictures of Tripp's introduction to the public - did he look younger than his age (as Trigg looked older than a newborn at his intro). That is the only way it could have been pulled off, altering the birth date info. I can't see Sarah Palin adopting any baby not a blood relative - she just doesn't have the kind of personality to do that. Imagine what it was must have been like when Bristol was pregnant for a third time - right before DWTS. I'm sure that's why Bristol and Levi were suddenly "back together again" last summer/spring and announced their upcoming nuptials - yet again. No doubt in my mind we would have been getting another impending birth anouncement very shortly after the wedding - and this bombed, there was no wedding, time for expert hoaxing! Bristol looked pregnant throughout that period, drops out of sight, again, I'm sure she had another child. They might have given up this child, because how in the world can you explain yet another newborn? Protecting her "family values", idiotic abstinence only Pro-Life sex ed platform would have been impossible if the truth was known. Even for her intellectually challenged supporters would no longer believe Palin represented "family values"- not with a 2nd and possibly 3rd pregnancy. I believe Levi and Mercede have not been truthful about the pregnancies - except for Tripp's birth. The whole thing is a farce - and now this with the Christy's. Mr. Christy may sound crazy - but to me he sounds like someone whose family has been destroyed - and that it's been going on a long time (2005-?)- trying to fend off the Palins. Wouldn't you sound crazy if you were in their place?

    Punkinbugg @ 8:51 AM wants to know:

    "What is the protocol when a pax presents themselves for boarding in an advanced state of pregancy?"

    This is handled by the ticket or gate agent - which ever one was the first to see the very pregnant passenger (assuming as I did that SP hadn't notified the airline when booking). Airlines may differ in their policies, but you can be assured that the agent would ask about the doctors permission to fly at that state of pregnancy. If you were actually a pregnant woman and NEEDED to fly at late stage you would obtain a doctors written note to make sure that you were not denied boarding - a very real possibility. The airlines need to cover their asses and they have no desire to have to make a very expensive emergency landing if that baby decided to be born in flight - which is what they would have to do. I received a lot of first aid training throughout my carrier but I can guarantee you that I never was taught how to deliver a baby!


    "Do you ask them what month they're in?"

    There is nothing like a VIP passenger - Scarah's) gotta love that designation - to break up the monotony of a long flight, so yes, you would certainly take the opportunity to chat with her if she was willing. However, if you are asking if the FA has any input as to whether or not she should be allowed to board, that decision would already have been made by the agent who would have obtained the information they needed to allow her to fly.

    Regarding seat belts and extensions. When checking seat belts what a FA looks for is that they are in the proper position across the lap and tight enough. This is most important in two instances; children and pregnant women. The seat belt must be placed very low, completely under the belly on a pregnant woman - regardless of how many months along she is. If she was very tiny, she could possibly get the seatbelt buckled without an extension but it would have been very uncomfortable.

    Conclusion: No way in hell would the FA's on that flight - especially the ones in her cabin - not have noticed (or have been previously advised of) her advanced pregnancy.

    The man is obviously unstable and needs help. However, for you to try to compare the President, the most well protected indvidual in the world, with Sarah Palin, who is a common citizen with high profile and NO GOVERNMENT security, whatsoever is being naive. We live in a free society where opinions and views are to be respected or at least tolerated under our constitution. Mr. Christy's threats are unacceptable and shows a very low tolerance and a high degree of immaturity on his part.

    This isn't journalism, it's yet another petty attack on Sarah Palin who is rightfully concerned about her family.

First the father craig isnt really disabled he has Lyme disease and cant work....yeah but he can walk all over the town hes just lazy. Second Shawn was home schooled by his father his entire life being brainwashed by him, i really do feel bad for him he never had the opportunity to build any kind of social skills. Now lets look at some of the things they claim, Shawn having a afrair of some kind with Palin or one of her daughters, give me a break really? like look at him why would she pick him? Think this through people a random 17yr old boy from a shithole town in pa really? are u kidding me? He made the threats he did and should be punished, as far as things continuing to occur if the family would just keep quiet things would disappear the restraining order would have expired and that would be that but no they had to raise hell. They all lost there jobs the father hasnt worked in years since he as back in nj or in there previous home in pa before moving into the new one that there loseing this whole thing is just a attempt to get some kind of fame or money, what they dont get it most people think there out of there minds.

By the way, I notice you seem to gloss over the fact that this mental gerbil threatened to rape one of Palin's daughters. I don't know, but I'm guessing Piper, that would seem to be his emotional maturity range.

    Do you know who should really be hit up with a restraining order, a permanent one? You, and about two-thirds at least of all registered Democrats, about 98% of environmentalist whackos, about 80% of RINO Republicans like your probable patrons, the Murkowskis, and about 94% of all non-Democrat leftist-progressives.

    You people are nuts. How can you even possibly justify anything this kid and his nutty family have done? And I do mean nutty. Read the FBI affidavit showing what Shawn AND his father have done, not just to Palin but to her parents, her lawyers, the staffers at her attorneys' offices and their families. Repeated phone calls (over 250 in one day) threatening the attorneys and their staff with rape and bodily harm. Here is the link to the affidavit: http://www.alaskadispatch.com/sites/default/files/FBIaffidavit_Christys.pdf

    The Craigs have more than one screw loose. The claims they are making are so ridiculous as to be belived only by the most delusional of people. As another poster said, if these threats had been made against Obama or another high profile democrat you would be all over that reaming Shawn and his family a new one. But because you hate Palin with an irrational ferver, all that Shawn has done is a-ok. Try to have even a modicum of intellecual honesty. I know that is difficult for liberals to do sometimes but this is pretty cut and dry. Shawn and his father threatened bodily injury to not just Palin and her kids but to numerous other people and threatened to rape Palin's daughter. There is no pass for this sort of conduct.

    To the "legal genius" that suggested a defamation suit against Palin or a restraining order against Palin, sorry. Shawn and his family have absolutely no grounds for a restraining order against Palin or any sort of lawsuit against her. Frankly, Shawn and his father will be lucky if they don't end up spending a significant amount of time in jail or a mental ward.
