Scott Franklin July 31, 2009 - Murder for Hire

Suspect's life of online porn, 'World of Warcraft' detailed

Divorce papers describe suspect

The 36-year-old Marysville man arrested Wednesday on suspicion of soliciting a hit man to commit murder had threatened to kill himself, his wife said in a divorce-related court filing.
"I believe that my spouse is a good man but due to his emotional state he is capable of hurting himself, our children and me," she stated in January of Jonathan Scott Franklin. "I do not believe he can safely be around our children without supervision."
The woman asserted that Franklin had also said he wanted to get his financial affairs in order and have the couple's two children adopted.
Franklin's wife in the court filing said he was laid off two years ago and since then "developed aberrant behavioral patterns."
He would spend hours watching pornography on his computer and often would spend up to 18 hours a day playing "World of Warcraft" on his computer, according to her court filing.
She said her job involves working with severely disturbed individuals and that she is familiar with warning signs involving such behavior.
Her statements were part of a request for a court order giving her custody of the couple's two children.
The couple separated in 2008, she said. In a July 20 court filing, her attorney cited matters including child custody and child support that remain at issue. Divorce proceedings continue in Yuba County Superior Court.
The woman is not being identified because of safety concerns.
Franklin, who is being held on $2 million bail, responded in a February court filing that he was probably misunderstood in the Jan. 16 conversation his wife had cited.

  Melinda,
The hate email and threats to your life or mine, Morgan's, Jacob's, or 
Gabriel's lives are not to be taken lightly. Bonita Gell is the one. We 

have been advised you need to file a complaint wherever you are. Bonnie 
has already threatend Morgan twice here. She is a pyscotic drug dealer 
who has many connections of the worst kind. It would appear she is a 

huge John Fund fan and may be involved in a conspiracey with him to 
continue harassing, threatening, slandering Morgan. Bonnie is "working (a 
cover job)" as craft services in the film (comercials) industry locally. 

I need your info on the IP where the post was made from. email Morgan 
at 
morgangell@yahoo.com for recent pictures of the boys.

Jay E. Gell.

2 down 48 to go, ha ha ha.

Here is the forward from Morri, who I contacted at SWUS.  I would be happy to pay for this once the GHS is finished.  I know what you have been through and also how impacted Jackie has been by the manipulations of Jay's family and her mother.  Her future is stark is there is not an effective intervention and, despite anything they do, we love our children.  Melinda

The Reason this site became necessary Robert (Van) Hughes and his associate Jay Gell

 In 2004 I was introduced over the phone to Jay Gell, who I then interviewed as a possible character  for the book I published that same year, GREED - The NeoConning of America.  Jay later introduced me to Robert V, Hughes. The woman who introduced us I had worked with in an organization to help victimized women. 

It was not a book I would have written had it not been for being nagged by Morgan, who I had not yet realized was highly psychopathic.  

I was already following the work of Dr. Robert Hare, PhD, a psychologist who had created a protocol for assessing individuals for the condition using a carefully structured set of questions, verbally presented to the individual being tested.  Accepting that she was highly psychopathic did not happen until I was interviewing a psychologist on my radio show, and she casually said, "You, of course, know your daughter is a psychopath." 

I murmured agreement, finally accepting this as fact. I managed to finish the show without a bobble, but the next three days were terrible for me. 

The websites HowTheNeoConsStoleFreedom and MorganPillsburyGell were put up at the insistence of my partner, who realized I had to explain the ugly lies the group of individuals hired and paid $5,000 a month each for their work, intended to bring about my death, wrote. 

I survived those attacks by telling the truth about each of them.  This blogspot was the one I put up about Jay Gell.  Although his mother gave him her husband's last name, a American soldier who was one of the first to die in Vietnam, Jay was actually the offspring of a casual affair with a trucker while her husband was in Vietnam.

Van Statement


Justin 
8/22/09

to me
Bleh, from the beginning. I'm probably leaving out some things, like I'm not sure how much the U-haul cost to move us out of Van's place, I just don't remember. :-\

I, Justin Foster, hereby certify that the below is true and correct to the best of my recollection, and that where noted I have supporting documentation (ed: though it may be buried in boxes).

In May 2007 my Mother relayed to me an offer to work for Van Hughes. The work would entail software and hardware research for establishing the viability of a particular design of wireless networking to provide mobile broadband, HDTV, VoIP, VoD, etc., services. The compensation was to be 100k shares in the company that would fund the project, stated shares to be worth no less then $.89 a share when the project went public, and a years worth of basic living expenses (room and board).

In June I took a trip down to Charlotte, NC and worked with Van's son Austin for three weeks on the project. I slept on an inflatable mattress in the office, and would begin work when Austin showed up in the morning, we would work all day, and then I'd go to bed the moment he left at night. ~15-16 hours a day, for three weeks. Every other day Austin would drive me to Van's house for a shower.

I returned to Ohio for three weeks, then moved down to NC with my fiancee, Renee. She had to quit her job as an E.R. Nurse and go through the hassle of finding a new job to come with me. We moved into a room in a house Van said he was renting, and would be moving into, in Blacksburg, SC, just over the border. It wasn't a very big room and nearly all our stuff had to remain packed, and our furniture had to be left in the living room which would seen be overflowing with all Van's junk. We lived there alone for a couple of weeks, I took care of setting up internet for the place because Van said he was to busy, and I needed internet to work. Renee also needed it to job hunt.

My first job on moving down was to begin helping Van move. First the office building that I had stayed in previously needed to be emptied, as it was going to be demolished. Then his personal residence had to be moved. We spent a week, in the hottest week in August on record, moving things. Van asked me to loan him some money for the truck and the moving guys, which I did. Mr. Hughes made several other requests for money, or items he wished me to pick up, which I also helped with. Mr. Hughes stated I would be paid back, with interest.

Van's son came down again, and we continued working on the project for which I had been hired. We ran into several technical hurdles for which we would need specialized equipment. Mr. Hughes declined to buy said equipment. Austin left as he was not able to keep working for no pay, he said he had rent to pay. I continued to work on the project as best I could, but we had taken it as far as it could go without an infusion of money to procure hardware, software, and more technical expertise. Mr. Hughes provided none of these, so the project was a stand still.

In March of '08 Mr. Hughes told me I had to move out. There was no provocation for this announcement, nothing had happened. Since we were only six months into our one year contract, I was understandably shocked, particularly since my Fiancee and I had loaned so much of our savings to Mr. Hughes, we would find moving out to be very uncomfortable financially. He threatened quote "Look, I know the Sheriff, either you move out or I'll get him to come over here and throw you out." Feeling my safety was threatened, I told Mr. Hughes I would move out if he paid me what he owed me in loans, and half the promised compensation for the work I had done. He agreed to repay the loans, after I had moved out so he could use the room as storage for things in his truck, which I had a bought a bumper for. He claimed he would sell the truck and repay me from that. No mention was made of paying me for the six months of work owed. He further said if I didn't get out, he'd consider the loan "rent" for the time I'd spent in the house. One tiny room for two people at at over $1,000.00 a month would of course be highway robbery, and I told him as much.

In the end, on the advice of my Mother, we moved out and hoped he would be repay me. He shook my hand and promised me the money would be repayed within a week of my moving out. I haven't seen a dime of it. Further, when I filed a motion with the local court to force Mr. Hughes to pay me, he filed a counter motion trying me get me to pay HIM the exact same amount. I can't imagine why. I've since moved away from the area and am unable to continue pursuing the issue at this time.

Please find below an itemized list of the loans, expenses, etc., which I am owed by Mr. Hughes.

to Morgan, Melinda
Sorry you are being subjected to this, Merlinda.  They are doing the same to Sassoon with false statements about what is happening here. 

Morgan, trying to draw in people who are not involved is just a blatant attempt to muddy the waters.  Send the records, as is your legal and ethical obligation.  You have forced me to take these steps.
