Re: Petition to END ban against Pit Bulls in Denver! Author: Kimberly (---.rev.o1.com) Date: 05-31-05 00:48 I see that Empress has posted about Kris Crawford, and her SAR pits. Although I have nothing bad to say about Tahoe, Dakota, or Cheyenne, I would like to set the record straight on several other points: Kris Crawford, aka, Kristine R. Crawford, is a liar, a fraud, and an outrageous disgrace to the entire pit, APBT, SBT, and related dog and SAR communities. If she thinks she can gain something from you, be it financial support, housing, dog care, veterinary care, name recognition, or anything else that propels whatever need she currently has, she will lie, fabricate, deceive and do anything and everything she thinks it takes to get to you. I know from personal experience; last year, Kris portrayed to me and my family to be dying of cancer. She claimed to have lost her husband, a Colorado doctor, when a drunk driver hit and killed him. She claimed to have lost her father at 9/11. She claimed all sorts of fantabulous tales of heartache and woe, of bravery and tremendous heroism in her SAR missions. None of it turned out to be true. She claims to have rescued Dakota from a pit fighting ring, where she was used as a bait dog. Fine, except she's published a number of other stories online and on her website, all claiming various stories from the fact that Cheyenne (who was NEVER a search dog, by the way) stole her out of a litter of puppies; that a breeder, gruff and big, caved, in tears, and gave her Dakota; to that Dakota came from a neighbor's friend's litter; to Dakota was among a litter of unwanted puppies, abandoned at a shelter, ready to be euthanized; to that crap story of being a bait dog. She claims to have rescued Tahoe from a dumpster. Want to read it for yourself? Go to Animal Farm Foundation, and read their 2002 Reno CHAMP conference notes. Or, I can send you the AOL IM transcript she had with me in October, outlining all the horrors Tahoe has been through. Yeah....except, I've also got the letters and statements from Pam Carter and Gaff Kennels, showing that Kristine Rae Crawford negotiated a price discount from $400.00 to $350.00, how she showed up, insistent, on Christmas Eve, and purchased Tahoe, then went on to email Pam about all of Tahoe's SAR training. She even posed for pictures with the Carter children/grandchildren and Tahoe in front of the Christmas tree. Kind of hard to do that, if you rescued this dog, abandoned, abused, and thrown away like garbage in a Dumpster, huh? She claimed to have been fired from Petco for staying at the Challenger shuttle search; no, apparently the truth is she was fired for labor law violations. She claims to have been shot at 6 times while on SAR missions; I've been in SAR for over 11 years, and have never heard of ANYONE being shot at even once. She claims to be going blind in her eye, and has seen many doctors. I've followed her claims of surgeries and permanent eye damage. As one person related to her treatment

said, there's something wrong with that lady, and it's not her eye. She claims to have permanently damaged her hand during a SAR mission, an injury so severe she may have to amputate her hand. Bullcrap. She injured it on November 23, while sneaking a jetski trailer out of our driveway, after ignoring telephonic orders, and emails to "stay away". I personally took her to Palomar Pomerado Hospital in Escondido, California. Want more? Email me at sarlady@yahoo.com. There is simply too much, too many lies, too many different stories and tales of woe, all of which turn out to be wholly, or almost completely fabricated. Kristine R. Crawford, and her For Pits Sake foundation, are not to be trusted, and certainly not to be respected, or looked to as a savior of this, or any related breed. She is a vampire, and will suck you personally, and the pit community as a whole, dry, and should be avoided as such. Kimberly And for the record, Rasmoka, "The only difference between a Pit and other dogs is their potential to do harm because of their powerful locking jaw" is a completely untrue statement that has been both biologically and scientifically proven to be false. Pit bull jaws do not lock; there are NO dogs who jaws lock. Period.

None of the information in this story about Kristine Crawford is true. If you want to verify any of the search information, contact the California Rescue Dog Association, www.carda.org. Just check CARDA's certified SAR dogs, and yes, Dakota and Tahoe are listed; Cheyenne never did search and rescue. NEVER certified. NEVER tested. NEVER searched. Go on. Check it out. If you want to check out the story about how Dakota was saved, run a few search engines. Crawford has claimed that Dakota was variously saved from a dog fighting ring where she was used as a bait dog; saved from a litter of puppies scheduled to be euthanized http://www.workingpitbull.com/recycleabull2.htm and www.forpitssake.org; this story http://www.pitbullsontheweb.com/petbull/articles/sarpits.html; this story with the variation that the neighbor was later arrested and jailed for dog fighting. Same thing with her dog Tahoe. Heard how Ms. Crawford rescued Tahoe from a dumpster? How Tahoe was abused and abandoned in a Dumpster on Christmas? How Tahoe was found by a homeless woman and her daughter who were searching for cans. How Kristine rescued the dog, and paid for all of her extraordinary vet bills, and how this dog is now saving lives herself. This story was even featured in the 2001 C.H.A.M.P. conference: http://www.animalfarmfoundation.org/2001nokillspeach.htm. Except that it's not real either. None of it. How about going to Gaff Kennels, http://www.gaffkennels.net/, and asking the breeder herself. Kristine Crawford bought Tahoe on Christmas Eve, 2000, for the amount of $350.00, posed for pictures with the breeder's children in front of the tree and the new puppy. Kristine Crawford is a huge fraud, and before anyone any where donates money, gear, or other donations to her purported non-profit, go run search engines. Check out the federal IRS charity search engine http://apps.irs.gov/app/pub78; as of today, For Pits Sake does not come up. Then go to the Internet Archive Wayback Machine, and look up For Pits Sake archives http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://forpitssake.org; they've been purportedly waiting on their nonprofit - and still taking donations - for at least the past four years. News paper online searches show articles purporting Ms. Crawford to be a non-profit since 1997 and in others, since 1998. Check it all out. Check out more. Run lots of engines and compare them all. And don't be surprised if you receive Hotmail or Yahoo! free account emails supporting Ms. Crawford and all she does. Especially from accounts from Daryl Riva (rivak9cop@yahoo.com, rivak9cop@hotmail.com), T. Eric Sheets, III (coastguarderic@hotmail.com), Pat Grant (plgrantvm@yahoo.com), Fran Troutman (frantroutman@yahoo.com) or Thomas Faraghan (thomasfaraghan@yahoo.com). Those are all known Kristine R. Crawford alias email accounts. Caveat emptor, all potential donors.

This morning, February 17, 2006, at 1100 hrs in San Diego Superior Court, Judge A. Preckel, Ramona, San Diego County, California, the case "Kelly Falconer versus Kristine Rae Crawford", civil court case #SR008487, was heard in open court. Kris Crawford did NOT show, however, she did contact the court telephonically, stating she had never heard of this case, that she'd only learned of the case the day before after a friend found it on the Internet. She requested a continuance, stating she had not been properly served. The court denied her request, stating that proof of service was shown, and proof of substituted service was accepted at her Los Gatos mail box. In file were also past attempts, sucessful mail services, and process services billings, receipts, and notes, as well as her California corporate record of address, and her current criminal court case information, including her home address as the address properly served. Service was accepted, and the proceedings continued. Allegations against Ms. Crawford are, as verbatim: Why does the Defendant owe the Plaintiff money? "Actual damages, pain and suffering, penalties for fraud, theft by deception, computer/website intrusion (California 502PC), and willfully damaged/erased content, as well as actual damages/financial loss for services rendered and received after fraudulently claiming cancer (housing, money, care, board, vet svcs), slander, harrassment, libel". The judge heard, reviewed material in file, as well as accepted additional material, including documentation from Palomar Hospital admissions department from November 23, 2004; Kris's own handwritten statements authorizing care, training, and possession of her dogs; phone records; proof of service; and proof of damages. Finding: SUSTAINED. Actual damages were calculated to be between $15,535.76 to $17,214.24. AWARDED: California state civil/small claims court maximum, $5000.00, plus $92.00 in court costs. JUDGMENT: $5,092.00 to Plaintiff Kelly Falconer, AGAINST Defendent Kristine Rae Crawford. Kristine is also facing criminal charges in an unrelated case. Criminal court case, "People versus Crawford, Kristine", San Mateo County, court case number SM341062A, for two counts of criminal embezzlement (Count 01, California penal code 508/487(a), PC 17, and Count 02, CA PC 508) are still slated for jury trial. Next criminal court hearing date is March 02, 2006, 9:00AM, Department AR. Jury trial is set for April 03, 2006, at 9:00AM, Department JT.

9:00AM, Department JT. Case name: Kristine R. Crawford Case number: SM341062A Charges: 001 PC 508/487(A) 01 PC 17 002 PC 508 Violation date: 09/28/2004 PC 508 - 508. Every clerk, agent, or servant of any person who fraudulently appropriates to his own use, or secretes with a fraudulent intent to appropriate to his own use, any property of another which has come into his control or care by virtue of his employment as such clerk, agent, or servant, is guilty of embezzlement. Two counts of embezzlement: one for the theft of a Fender Passport amplifier and speaker system, and the second charge is defined below. PC 487(a) - 1997. 487a. (a) Every person who shall feloniously steal, take, transport or carry the carcass of any bovine, caprine, equine, ovine, or suine animal or of any mule, jack or jenny, which is the personal property of another, or who shall fraudulently appropriate such property which has been entrusted to him, is guilty of grand theft. The charge in this case is for the theft of a human teaching skeleton, stolen from the Biology Department of Menlo College. PC 17 - Codifier for felony/misdeameanor. On January, 2005, Kristine R. Crawford was picked up, detained, and questioned by Atherton Police Department at her place of employment*. *NOTE: In December, 2004, Kristine sent out a newsletter on behalf of her For Pits Sake organization stating that she was unemployable, and out of work, due to a hand injury. That is, and was not true. She was at her normal course and place of employment during the week of January 21, 2005, when she was detained by police in regard to thefts reported by Menlo College on/or during September, 28, 2004. After being questioned, she was escorted to her residence, where she ultimately turned the stolen items over to police. In August, 2005, she was arrested, charged with two counts of embezzlement, and continues to face those criminal accusations today. She has listed a false address, ie, a fictitious apartment, as her home address, and has given a third differing date of birth. No one really seems to know exactly WHO Kristine Rae Crawford really is...including Kristine.

Criminal case docket information is publicly available. For copies of criminal files and related court records: San Mateo County Courts Superior Court Southern Branch 400 County Center, 4th Floor Redwood City 650-363-4302 Lastly, Kristine resigned from one of her SAR teams after an Internal Affairs investigation began, and has since suspended from others until the resolution of her criminal arrest and complaint. If you are donating money to support her SAR efforts, you should be aware that your money is going directly into her own pocket - and most likely, always has.

Diane Jessup, will you be attending the trial for your FAVORITE CHARITY DIRECTOR?? Arrested on FELONY EMBEZZLEMENT CHARGES?! Diane Jessup and Kristine Crawford are tight: Diane Jessup speaks through her websitewww.workingpitbull.com and asks for all donations on her website to be sent to Kristine Crawford'swww.forpitsaake.org. The problem is,www.forpitsaake.org is NOT a registered non-profit and its founder has been arrested on embezzlement. Go towww.guidestar.org to confirm OR check out the federal IRS charity search engine http://apps.irs.gov/app/pub78. No listing. Diane Jessup asks for donations to be made to a non-profit that doesn't exist. Why? Where is that money going? Diane, can YOU tell us? WHILE Kris Crawford asks for donations to be made in HER name, not the "nonprofit". That's because none exists. I thought I would let you know that in August (Diane Jessup's choice for donations) was arrested, fingerprinted, and booked on September 22, 2005. Crawford was arraigned in criminal court, San Mateo County Courthouse, for embezzlement. Her pretrial is 11/03/2005 at 1:30PM Case name: Kristine R. Crawford Case number: SM341062A Charges: 001 PC 508/487(A) 01 PC 17 002 PC 508 Violation date: 09/28/2004 PC 487(a) - 1997. 487a. (a) Every person who shall feloniously steal, take, transport or carry the carcass of any bovine (cattle), caprine (goat), equine (horse), ovine (sheep), or suine (pig) animal or of any mule, jack or jenny, which is the personal property of another, or who shall fraudulently appropriate such property which has been entrusted to him, is guilty of grand theft. Pretrial - 11/03/2005 at 1:30PM in Redwood City in Dept. PT for pretrial conference Jury Trial - 11/28/2005 at 9AM in Redwood City in Dept. JT for Jury Trial. http://www.sanmateocourt.org/midx/searchform4_tim.php Or, go straight to http://www.co.sanmateo.ca.us/smc/county/home/0,,1774_2126,00 .html Enter her name: CRAWFORD, Kristine Enter her case number: SM341062 Or, go directly to: http://www.sanmateocourt.org/midx/strip_tim9.php.

to the uniform page, where you may have to do the above, but that is the URL I am looking at now. SM341062 RWC D CRAWFORD, KRISTINE 08-22-2005 CJIS Diane Jessup continues to ask for donations to be made to this person charged of felony theft - and to be clear, this is not related to Crawford's previous January Atherton PD detainment, or her civil case pending (Kelly Falconer v. Crawford for fraud, theft by deception, or computer hacking, instrusion, or related). This is an entirely new and separate case.
