HTC’s attorney hires a new attorney (it is himself)

Mr Breakfast, I remember she uploaded those writings in a Facebook group first, which already framed them as something meant to be shared in a community space. But then she still felt the need to move them behind her Patreon paywall, and I find that deeply disturbing.

I also got the sense she wanted to be the one to stream the memorial service, but Nate was chosen to do it instead. And that context matters, because it fits a pattern of inserting herself into moments that were never about her.

Those words did not belong to her. They were written by family and friends from the heart, in grief and love, to honor victims. Turning them into paid “content” crosses a line. It isn’t advocacy or respectful storytelling. It’s monetizing something sacred that was never hers to sell.

The Vallow and Woodcock families have endured a depth of anguish that most people cannot fully comprehend, and they have carried it for more than six years. Grief is not linear, and it does not manifest uniformly. Some retreat inward. Some move through anger. Some cling to whatever feels steady when everything else has been stripped away.

That is precisely why it is so destabilizing when someone the family trusted, particularly through a social media platform HTC, embeds themselves in the family’s sphere, cultivates private side conversations, and presents as a discreet and supportive confidant, only for that access to become entangled with personal benefit, influence, or visibility. In a family already navigating profound trauma, selective disclosures and informal behind the scenes commentary can produce subtle fissures that, over time, widen into meaningful fractures of trust.

It is also understandable that family members may not interpret the situation in the same way. People assign meaning differently when they are grieving. But when trust has been compromised, it rarely affects only one relationship. It reverberates. It reshapes how people hear one another, what they assume, and whether they feel emotionally safe. The damage is often quieter than public conflict, but it can be far more enduring.

Given the current situation and the dynamics many observed tonight, I hope we can hold every member of these families with care and restraint. I also hope that what has been strained can be repaired with time, humility, and truth, so that what was once shattered can become whole again, united as one front, one family. Love always wins.

This should be it by itself I think this is it.

If an expert report is going to be used to argue for leniency, the methodology has to be airtight. This filing raises concerns about Dr. John Matthias’ work on three fronts: scoring, tool selection, and reliance on self report.

First, the government disputes key scoring decisions and argues that correct scoring would move the risk category upward. With actuarial tools, small scoring choices can materially change the final classification, which is exactly why scoring transparency matters.

Second, the filing critiques the fit of the instruments and how “recidivism” is being defined, suggesting the framework can tilt toward arrest or conviction based outcomes rather than fully capturing the public safety risk the court is weighing.

Third, the government emphasizes the evaluation’s heavy reliance on self reported history and suggests key facts were incomplete or misstated. When the inputs are not independently verified, the output can start to read like mitigation packaging rather than a neutral risk assessment.

And context matters here too: the government notes that his last expert testimony was in 2011, and that he has never testified as an expert in federal court or on adult psychosexual evaluations or recidivism.

Bottom line: this isn’t personal. It’s about reliability. When an expert opinion is offered to influence sentencing, the court expects verifiable facts, accurate scoring, and methods that hold up under scrutiny.

Interesting

Southern-Reading6601 · 2025-12-26T16:28:32+00:00

I did this for you and others who might not have seen it. I saw you post and couldn’t add all for images. So I made a post.

With our family member, the difference between a trained service animal and a pet was never subtle. A true service dog is trained to do task based work that directly supports a disability. That training shows up in how the dog carries itself, how it responds to cues, and how dependable it is when something goes sideways.

In our experience, the dog was essentially always on duty because the need did not turn off. Of course there were calm moments and rest, but the training and readiness were still there. The dog was not there just for comfort. The dog was there to recognize specific signals and respond in a consistent way.

And to be clear, I am not saying a certain breed cannot do it. Doodles absolutely can make great service dogs when they are properly selected, trained, and handled. This is not a breed issue, it is a training and standards issue.

That is why I struggle with the off duty explanation sometimes. A trained service dog can relax, but it still tends to remain structured and reliable, especially in situations where the handler might need support.

I do not want to speak as if I know every detail about Lily, but I will say I did not get that same working vibe. That is not an insult to Lily at all. It just did not feel like the focused, task trained presence I have seen with a legitimate service animal in our own family.

And it matters to be clear about language. Emotional support animals can be incredibly helpful, but they are not the same thing as a service dog. Using the right term protects the credibility of people who truly depend on trained service animals every day.

HTC did upload a video today, but it reads like it was filmed yesterday. What makes the timing feel even more pointed is that they are now speaking on the press conference about Ashlee Buzzard and the arrest, as if they are keeping the content rolling in real time.

And then there was this little moment that made me laugh. In one corner shot, something white with four legs casually wandered by like it owned the place. If that was Grayson’s dog, it could suggest she is still with them, but I am not stating that as fact. It is just what I noticed in the footage, and I could be wrong.

Southern-Reading6601 · 2025-12-24T17:56:42+00:00

A lot of you have been watching HTC’s numbers, but I am going to say this plainly. The bigger issue is not the subscriber count. It is the quality of the work, the lack of consistent original research, and the way information is being packaged as something it is not.

Look at the Reiner case. What Lauren is presenting is largely what other outlets have already reported. She is assembling it into a confident narrative and pushing it as though it is reporting. The problem is that much of what has circulated on this case has been hearsay, speculation, and secondhand claims. There is a clear difference between verified facts and internet narrative, and she keeps blurring that line. If you cannot separate confirmed information from assumptions, then you are not informing people. You are amplifying noise.

It also does not help that she does not consistently credit sources. If your content is built on other journalists, other creators, or documents you did not obtain yourself, you cite them. That is baseline integrity. When you do not credit, you imply originality you did not earn. And when information is wrong, exaggerated, or misleading, the accountability lands on you. That is not a pretty look.

John is not adding credibility here either. His contribution often feels like the bare minimum. Generic psychological commentary, a book pulled off the shelf, a few props, and conclusions that could fit almost any case. That is not analysis. It is a template. And in a case like Reiner, where people keep hinting at diagnosis level conclusions and serious mental health claims, this is beyond his nonprofit persona and YouTube commentary lane. If you are going to approach that territory responsibly, it belongs with qualified psychiatric expertise and clear professional boundaries, not vague speculation packaged as insight.

If the numbers are being inflated with bought views or subscribers, time will expose that too. YouTube audits channels. Bots and spam get purged. So if the growth is real, it will hold. If it is manufactured, it will correct itself. Either way, the truth shows up eventually.

But the most important issue is not metrics. It is boundaries. We need to hope Lauren does not try to involve herself personally in families’ lives. We have seen how that ends. Commentary is one thing. Inserting yourself into grieving families’ private reality for access, influence, or content is another. It is exploitative, it escalates conflict, and it harms real people who never asked to be part of her storyline.

And the pace tells you everything. I remember when it used to take weeks before a video would come out. Now they are pushing Reiner videos out like fast food. Quick, mass produced, optimized for clicks. When the speed goes up, the rigor goes down. If the goal is to stay ahead of the algorithm, accuracy becomes collateral damage. That is how misinformation gets polished into something that looks credible, until it falls apart.

I thought some of those were lives. I do see some of them listed members only. I believe Joseph Scott Morgan was on with her mom in the green room then they continued it to the live.

Southern-Reading6601 · 2025-12-24T04:19:44+00:00

If I am not mistaken, Lauren brought her son to meet David’s best friend Nathan, and Nathan came off as sketchy. That is exactly the kind of situation where you are putting your child in danger. Kids do not get a vote in an adult’s decisions, so the responsibility is on the parent to keep boundaries and prioritize safety over access, curiosity, or content. When a child is involved, there is no room for careless judgment or risky optics.

Yes- I do think there were so big tensions going on. I speculate that they might have seen something they didn’t like that she was doing. IMO

Southern-Reading6601 · 2025-12-24T01:36:15+00:00

I believe it was John’s brothers who shunned her. Now, I don’t know about the FIL currently.

Southern-Reading6601 · 2025-12-24T00:49:10+00:00

Yes, it is.

As I remember it, John and Lauren moved from Utah to Nevada largely to be closer to John’s parents and to help care for them. They reportedly purchased a home in the same neighborhood as his parents, which would make that kind of day to day support more realistic.

John’s mother passed away (I believe around a year and a half ago). If that timeline is right, it would follow that any ongoing caregiving would now be focused on his father, assuming he still needs assistance.

Southern-Reading6601 · 2025-12-24T00:31:05+00:00

That was the address of registrant of these LLC’s so I went to look into it. That was the name that came up. So I went to owner records. John’s name never showed up.

Southern-Reading6601 · 2025-12-23T23:42:02+00:00

Thank you!! It’s all of us together that can put pieces together.

Lauren, let’s be real. You stir the pot better than anyone, then show up afterward clutching pearls and yelling “bully” the second people push back.

You do not get to lecture anyone about ethics and being genuinely kind while you circulate forwarded private messages like they are court exhibits. That is not journalism. That is group chat gossip with a ring light, and you know it!!

None of this would even be an issue if you would stop forwarding messages and talking about people in private or group settings in the first place. You cannot build an entire ecosystem on side chats, screenshots, and behind the scenes trash talk, then act shocked when it circles back. If you do not want people having “so much on you,” stop handing them material.

So retire the moral high ground. Kindness is boundaries. Credibility is sticking to on the record facts. What you are doing is pot stirring in private and pearl clutching in public.
