Report From A Jerk In Jail

In an article that can only be described as surreal, Mark Vance Halburn has parlayed his latest stay in the Western Regional Jail into a "Special Report" on his fake news hate blog.

Undercover Reporter Mark Vance Halburn

 His "14 day investigation" (he misspelled incarceration) reveals that the jail's problems include:

Overcrowding.
He calls it a “dumping ground” for inmates that he thinks should be just be issued court summons, like someone (him) being held for contempt of court.

Medical personnel are rude.
He whines that diabetics (him) are fed food that makes them sick. (They wouldn't bring him a gas station pizza).

And the most shocking: Illegal drug use by inmates!

The ex-inmate is also upset that administrators won't return his insistent phone calls.

Nowhere in the article does he tell his 29 readers that he was being held as a prisoner in the jail.
One thing is for sure, he'll get a warm reception the next time he goes back.

Truth IS stranger than fiction.

ANOTHER Speeding Ticket in Dunbar

Halburn got another speeding ticket in Dunbar recently.
Now he's whining and harassing Dunbar officials about it. This is his second speeding ticket in Dunbar. And both from the same officer.

Doesn't mean 30

The first time it was 39 in a 25. This time it was 30 in a 15, twice the posted limit.
And whether he agrees with the 15 mph limit on that street or not, the speed limit on all other residential streets in the city is 25 mph. He was exceeding even that limit by 5 mph.
He was been breaking the law regardless.
You don't get to decide what the normal rate of speed is on a residential street., Halburn The city does that.


And then he whines he also got a ticket for no proof of insurance even though he was in a rental car.
You know why, Fatburn?
Because you gave the cop shit. Had you kept your mouth shut and taken the original ticket, you'd have gotten away with only one charge. But you, being you, just had to run your flabby cocksucker and you got an added bonus.
You're entitled to courtesy if you've done the same. If you get singled out for being an asshole, you brought that on yourself and shouldn't expect a break. Piss on the cops and they will find every little reason to pull you over.
Take it up with the judge,  Fatboy.

We wonder if you speed with your son in the car on the days when you get to visit him?

It's particularly ironic that the man who is criticizing safety is holding a video camera and driving.
With a speed limit of 15 miles per hour, a child in the street has a chance to survive, but at 30, when he is hit he is dead.
But I'm sure that somehow Halburn would attempt to make it the child's fault.

Annual Pool Whine Begins

MOTHERFUCKER

It's September and Halburn has started his annual whining about the pools closing.
What is his obsession with pools?

After all these years, he still doesn't get it. Most lifeguards are high school and college students. Once school starts the "pool" of employees dries up. The customers are back in school. Pools don't exist to solely "service him."
And then he makes the ridiculous assertion that pools reduce crime because they give burglars and shoplifters something else to do. Which is hilarious because heroin addicts and meth heads aren't the ones using the pools even when they're open.

His solution is for taxpayers to build pools at every high school. So he could swim there for free, no doubt. And those lifeguards that pools can't find after school starts? Pay them more.

We've got a solution for you, you fat fuck. If you want to swim year round, join the YMCA. But that costs money.
If you actually had a real job, you wouldn't have time to lounge around by the pool all day anyway. You'd be working to pay the full amount of your child support obligations.

Then he closes with the demand,
"Change our way of thinking and get moving!
Lose that weight!"

A polish sausage eating, 330 pound diabetic has no business giving anyone health advice.

No Fly

Halburn has been named to a very elite group at Charleston's Yeager Airport.
His picture is posted as a potential disruptive visitor after he got into argument with staff there.

The only way he will be getting back on a plane is to get two Police Dept letters of reference. He will probably get one from that dipshit Chief in Winfield  and it's possible Putnam County Sheriff Steve Deweese will come through for him again since he seems to be in Halburn's pocket. 

Could he have also been added to the TSA's No Fly list?

Congratulations, lardass! We knew you'd make it!
If you fly out of Yeager, look and see if you see his photo. Extra credit if you send us a picture.

Ticketbastard

 Remember the last time you called in and bought tickets for an event and gave the person on the other end your address and credit card number? You may want to rethink that now after you see what kind of people they hire there. 

Towards the end of August Mark Halburn started customer service training at Ticketmaster in Charleston. Everyone there was horrified that the company hired him. His reputation preceded him. Do these companies not do a background check on prospective employees? HOW does he even get in the door??? I mean, just one call to one of his former employers would reveal the trouble he's caused at those places.

That is the $64,000 question.

Three scenarios:
Either he gives fake references and gets people to lie about them for him, they don't even bother checking, or the former employers are so intimidated by threats that they will say nothing negative about him..

Several trainees quit the training class because of his presence and Halburn had only been there a week. 
He didn't last much longer. He never even made it out of training.
Ticketmaster management was ready with a plan for when they fired him.  He demanded his last check of course, and several members of upper management locked down the call center and met him in the parking lot with his check. He started yelling and showing his ass and they just turned and walked away .

Exactly how to treat him.

He's not entitled to attention from anybody. They met their obligation. They didn't need to stay for anything else. Plus it takes away his power. Deal with him and don't engage him.

He's already starting his threats. Ticketmaster legal is no doubt involved. 
Not sure if they're like wrongful termination threats or I'm gonna shoot up this place threats.
I'm sure their lawyers are used to dealing with entitled assholes

Either way Halburn gets fired again.

HALBURN BEATEN UP IN JAIL!!!

Ferris Bueller Kicks Halburn's Ass!
Bitch Slapped By The Creeper

            Chad "Creeper" Day                   Mark Vance Halburn

On Mark Vance Halburn's 7th day in South Central Jail, he had the piss slapped out of him by fellow inmate Chad Day because Halburn turned the TV on at full volume at 5:30 AM.

Day's friend Mikey Fields tells PutnamLIES.com, "I seen this with my own eyes, lmfao!! If anyone knows my boy Creeper aka Chad Day y'all know how he gets down!! The fat dude turned the TV on full blast at 5:45am while people was trying to sleep and he got the shit smacked out of him not punched! The fat guy is just a lil cry baby snitch and is also suing chad for the incident. Lmao!! Free Creeper !!!"

Let's all give Chad Day a laurel and hearty handshake!

Halburn is charged with telephone harassment and disruption of government services. He's being held on a $1500 bond which, we have been told he cannot pay and is calling left and right trying to find someone to put the money up. He has been turned down by all his friends and even his relatives in California, because they're "not willing to risk their money on his behavior."

And check out the comments on WCHS TV's Facebook page. Nobody likes this fat bastard.

The prosecutor should give Creeper a medal, early release and a parade.
Funny how the fat son of a bitch who shits on the judicial system is the one constantly crying about getting no justice.

Halburn Escorted Off Health Department Property

Serial Harasser Strikes Again

MARK VANCE HALBURN

On Thursday, March 14, 2013, a Putnam Deputy Sheriff was summoned to the Putnam Health Department after Mark Halburn called and raised hell with the staff. He told them he was coming to their offices and they had better be ready to service him. They viewed his ranting as a threat and called the Putnam Sheriff's office.

Shortly thereafter, when Halburn arrived, he was intercepted by a Deputy in the parking lot and told in no uncertain terms to leave. He never even made it into the building.

Halburn then began whining about his constitutional rights and started shooting video. The Deputy told him to video all he wanted but he still had to leave.
At that point, Halburn was escorted off the lot and was once again told to leave or face the consequences. Halburn then complied.

Halburn has been a resident of West Virginia since November 2012 but still holds a South Carolina drivers license. That is in violation of WV Code §17B-2-1a which states that every driver shall, within thirty days after taking up residence in this state, obtain a WV driver's license. §17A-3-3b defines what a resident is in WV.

The Deputy may not have been aware that Halburn is now a WV resident since Halburn was not cited for the license offense.

Halburn agreed in February to a 6 month period of pre-trial diversion for a 2012 harassment charge in Kanawha County.
The question is, how long is it going to take for law enforcement to put Halburn's ass behind bars?

It is unknown what Halburn's beef is with the Health Department this time.

After Halburn saw our headline Saturday night, he posted the following on PutnumLive's Facebook page, in a desperate attempt to cover his flabby ass.

First he says he hasn't been there in more than a year. Then he immediately starts splitting hairs, saying he wasn't escorted FROM THE BUILDING. No, he was escorted from their parking lot. 

The Putnam County Sheriff's office records show that he was, in fact, removed from the Health Department property on Thursday, March 14, 2013.

And then to top it all off, someone commented that we should be talking about Halburn stealing sunglasses from Sheetz instead.

Thunderous McDoodles thought he'd get some sympathy from all his Facebook asskissers, never dreaming that someone would drop a comment bomb on him.

Well that shit backfired.
Beautifully backfired.
Halburn deleted the comment within the hour. 

And that's a story for another time.

The Year In Review

LOOKING BACK

The Top PutnamLIES.com Stories Of 2012

It's long been a news tradition to look back at the previous year's top stories.
With that in mind, PutnamLIES.com is digging back into our archives to bring you our top news stories from 2012.

We'll let you decide which is the most important or which is the "biggest story." We are just going to present what we feel is the most memorable. Just click on the headlines to go to the original story.

So please, kick back with your notebook computer or netbook at your favorite hotspot, grab a cold Bartles & Jaymes or a banana margarita, and enjoy our "Year in Review."
Let's start off with an old Halburn practice: Deception

Uses Dead Child To Advance Vendetta

Halburn sunk to a new low, even for him, when he adopted the moniker "RememberingLogan"and  including a picture of murdered toddler Logan Goodall next to his user name on Topix in a further attempt to smear Putnam Prosecutor Mark Sorsaia. He later pulled all the posts associated with that name after being called out for it.

In February, the event the entire state was waiting for happened. Halburn's second ex-wife had finally had enough of his abuse and told him to leave but he refused to until ordered out by the court. In March he was forced to pack his shit and leave town.

Halburn Leaves Town

In frigid 30 degree weather and with snow blowing, a shorts and sandals clad Halburn packed his pathetic belongings, the accumulations of a 50 year failed life, into a U-Haul truck and left the state under the cover of darkness. Slinking away like a whipped dog.

Police Called To 194 Grace Drive

Halburn wasn't gone a month before he returned for a weekend visit and started causing trouble.

Shows His Ass in TWO Separate Motel Incidents In The Same Weekend

As part of his visits back to West Virginia, Halburn frequented several area motels. And as usual there were "incidents." Only these times there were no pools involved.

Halburn Sues Judge, Second Ex-Wife, Her Attorney

Last November, Halburn's long-suffering wife filed for divorce against him. And as we predicted at the time, Halburn has made his son a pawn in the proceedings. Angry about being ordered out of the house and furious that a judge finally stood up to him, Halburn filed a writ in May that made a number of ridiculous demands.  Among them was  the demand that an attorney be appointed for him, 10 million dollars from her attorney and for Putnam County Circuit Clerk Ronnie Matthews to not be rude to him.
Matthews' office later got a restraining order against Halburn. He is not allowed at the Circuit Clerk's office. His lawyer must file any orders for him.

PutnamLIES.com Celebrates 3 Year Anniversary

In 2009, for the first time, Putnam County

citizens had access to unbiased daily news reports when this publisher starts PutnamLIES.com. We quickly became the most-read source for unbiased Putnam County news and the truth about Mark Hallburn and his attack blog, PutnumLive. In August we celebrated our third birthday.

Continues To Attack Judge Kelly 
In his on-going attempt to gain more than 25% custody, Halburn continued his attacks against Judge Mike Kelly.  Why he thinks harassing the judge that controls the fate of his visitation rights is a good idea is beyond us.

Stalks, Harasses Governor 
Over the Labor Day holiday, Halburn drove 60 miles, one way, from Putnam County to the UMWA's Labor Day Picnic in Racine WV, to harass Governor Earl Ray Tomblin and shout questions at him.

Thrown Out Of Parenting Class At The Courthouse

As part of his divorce process, Halburn was ordered to take part in a parenting class at the Putnam County Courthouse. When Judge Mike Kelly appeared in a video the class was watching, Halburn became enraged and began shouting. Hilarity ensued.

Halburn Arrested Again!

After losing his unemployment benefits in August, which he collected all summer even though he was working at a Myrtle Beach pier, Halburn made continued, repeated harassing phone calls to the Unemployment Office. After a divorce hearing in October, he was arrested for telephone harassment.

Buddies Up To Child Molester

As election season heated up, a slovenly Halburn showed up at meet and greets for WV Supreme Court candidates with a convicted sex offender, going so far as to be photographed smiling next to him. We would find out later the full extent of Halburn's involvement with this reprobate.

Gets Very Public Ass Chewing
One evening in October, Walmart shoppers were disturbed by some excessive noise. The source this time? Halburn's second ex-wife was giving him a verbal ass reaming for associating with the above molester.

Can't Keep Job In Myrtle Beach

After failing at his job at the Apache Pier in Myrtle Beach, where he worked the bait counter and arcade change window for less than six months, in November Halburn moved out of his HUD trailer and returned to West Virginia, like an unwanted venereal disease, moving into a garage apartment in Dunbar. Turns out the people of South Carolina hate him too.

Election Ad Deception

Halburn douched up this year's election by once again running ads on his opinion blog for candidates that were neither authorized by nor paid for by their campaigns, going so far as to make up fictitious groups to "sponsor" the ads, a blatant violation of WV election law. None of the candidates or their supporters wanted ANYTHING to do with Hallburn or his blog.

Threatens Judge Kelly Again
As part of his petulant frenzy, Halburn threatened to stalk Judge Kelly at the next election and picket his house on Christmas day. He also admitted contacting some of Kelly's neighbors.

Demands Court Resurrect His Dead Mother

In one of his more irrational actions, Halburn demanded that the court bring his dead mother back to life. He then used her to attack Judge Kelly and the courts. We're sure the late Mrs. Halburn would not approve.

Posts Shocking Confession
As if his demand that his dead mother be brought back to life wasn't bizarre enough, the end of the year brought Halburn's most disturbing admission to date. He admitted he lived with a child molester for weeks before he moved into a Dunbar apartment. And that the molester was a "good man."
After posting that love letter on Facebook, it remained there for almost a week, when Halburn then deleted it saying he had been hacked. The truth is that the repercussions were just too much for him to handle. Rumor has it that he can no longer substitute teach in Kanawha County. It's certainly not something a responsible father seeking more custody of his son would do.


Harassment Of Judicial System Continues

Clutching his new video camera in his pudgy hand, in mid December Halburn descended on the offices of the Judicial Investigative Commission. He demanded they service him and he lurked around the lobby until he was able to follow a staffer to her car, harassing her the entire way. Without the intercession of a Judicial security officer, who knows what mayhem could have ensued? The last minute of the video shows her terrified reaction.

Makes Veiled School Threat
Halburn ends the year with yet another crazed screed. He uses the Newtown school shooting to blame the family court system in his ongoing custody battle with his second ex-wife. By the end of the article, he's making veiled threats. 

Form Letters From Politicians

Halburn continued his pathetic practice of running press releases from politicians promoting their agendas and running other people's Facebook comments as letters.

Continues Running "News" Stories About "Advertisers"

Halburn continued his unethical practice of running fawning stories about his so-called advertisers under the guise of news. Or, just as bad, running them in hopes of getting the business to advertise with him.

We continue to put Halburn, all his "advertisers" and anyone else he promotes, on notice. We are going to parody and belittle all of you. If you're a business and you don't want it done, don't associate with Hallburn. If your ad appears on his blog, you're fair game. He is a boil on the ass of civilized society and we're here to lance it.

So in summary, his baseless attacks and bullying have slowed slightly, although now he has picked new targets.

His theft of other photographers' work has basically ceased as has his serial plagiarism.

He hasn't even made an attempt to defend himself here. Oh, he reads us every day, but he only left one comment last year, and he didn't even have the balls to sign his own name, he tried to do it anonymously. He has never once offered any defense for his actions or complained of any inaccuracies in our reporting.
Which says a lot. It's hard to defend yourself against the truth.

There was a decrease in articles here at PutnamLIES.com, but that's O.K.
It's because we've forced Halburn to cut way back on his assholery. Oh, he's back douching up the state, but he knows that PutnamLIES.com will be all over any misstep that he makes.
Our mission all along has been to force him to act in a more civilized manner. Before he started getting pounded from all sides he was free to attack anyone for any reason without repercussions. Those days are gone for good.

PutnamLIES.com will answer any attack that Halburn makes. And now his output shows it. Well over half of his "articles" last year were nothing more than news releases reprinted word for word from various outlets.

This site has become the number one resource for people seeking the truth about Halburn. When Modern Woodmen, Strayer, University of Phoenix, Comfort Inns, Best Buy, Staples or Kroger want to find out just who this Mark Halburn guy really is, they come here.
Whenever a future employer Googles his name, they'll be able to find this site and see the truth about him.

Someday, and that day is not too far away, a little boy will be able to see just what kind of asshole his daddy really is.

The internet is forever. This site and the information on it will follow Halburn around until the day he dies. Which cannot come soon enough.

We invite everyone who is sick of Halburn's abuse to continue to contact PutnamLIES.com.

We're always watching you, Hallburn. The all seeing eye never blinks.

What's does 2013 hold? Only Halburn's continued presence here and his behavior can determine that. 

There's sure to be a major meltdown when the final order is issued in his divorce case. Halburn expects to get a monetary settlement and custody of his son. He will get neither.

But one thing is for sure, PutnamLIES.com will be here one day longer than Hallburn and his cluttered opinion blog.

If we've forgotten anything, please submit it to PutnamLIES.com@gmail.com and we will consider it for publication.

Halburn Posts Shocking Confession

"I Lived With A Child Molester"

Every time you think Mark Halburn couldn't do anything more outrageous, he goes and proves everyone wrong.

Wednesday night Halburn posted the following on his Facebook page:

Roomies

Wow! What a swell bunch of fellows! 
Bob Harper is a convicted child molester.

I think this question has been asked before, but what was he thinking?
Very little Halburn does surprises me, but this shocks the fuck out of me. 

Just how goddamn dumb are you, Meathead? Your job as a substitute teacher requires you to be around kids, yet you post on Facebook that two child predators are great guys?

How the hell can Kanawha County Schools continue to justify this?
You're trying to get custody of your son? No court is going to award you anything with the friends you hang around with.

I don't know if his second ex-wife has seen this, but she needs to.

I wouldn't let my kid anywhere near this so called Dad. 

A mistake is rear-ending a car. Or running a red light. 

A mistake is not the willful disregard of a court order to pay child support and molesting children. A mistake is not when someone is almost $50,000 in arrears in his child support. Hope he's not going to make a mistake and stick Jake with the hospital bill.

Also, being a retard with a YouTube account isn't a contribution to society.

Though isn't it interesting Troy has lived there too?

Apparently, all of them are down with molestation. CPS probably didn't know that about the "Putnam Abuser."

It makes total sense now why he told the court he "couldn't remember the address" where he was staying. If Bob Harper is someone to be so proud of, why hide that fact? 

He sounds like a regular church going Boy Scout from Halburn's post.

We definitely need more people with the consciences of a petulant child abuser and an angry, deadbeat molester. Good call, Crisco.

Halburn should have saved the court time and just walked down there and handed that to them and said, "No interest in parental rights. Many thanks!"

No, he tells us, the problem is the child beater and peg-legged kid toucher are just misundersood.

Falsely accused.

They didn't really do those things ... The court is smearing them.

You know who else got a bad rap? Jerry Sandusky.

He was smeared too.

Just helping those boys to get clean. I know it looked bad but...

That's exactly what he is saying here.

Good luck in that custody battle, Fatsack.
Enjoy your supervised visits.

UPDATE: On Sunday evening Halburn posted the following, trying to cover his tracks:

One of the posts he deleted was the one above.

Seriously? A hacker? It was you Fatboy. Nobody hacked your page.
Do you seriously expect anyone to believe that posting sat on your Facebook page since Wednesday night and you didn't notice until Sunday? You only update your status about every couple hours. Liar, liar, big ass pants on fire.

Here's what happened. He started getting tons of heat about his association with a child molester and child abuser. He's desperate to save his substitute job. He's in full on survival mode now.

Another Day, Another Problem

 

Halburn Back In Town, Harassing Bank Employees.
Thrown Out Of Parenting Class At The Courthouse.

 Halburn rolled back into town last night to get rested up for a big day. He wasn't here 12 hours before the trouble started.

Mark Vance Halburn
Domestic Terrorist

  

He started off the day at Poca Valley Bank where he was turned down for a loan. After they stopped laughing they told him to fuck off and he stormed out.

 

Then he started calling them them. Non stop. 

No threats, as far as we know. He just kept calling and asking for employees by name.
This happened mostly at the Winfield branch but he called the one in Poca as well.

The bank has filed a police report.

Then, to end the day, he was thrown out of the Putnam County Courthouse.














As part of his impending divorce Halburn was ordered to attend parenting class.

All participants in the classes are required to watch a video featuring the man who kicked Mark Halburn's ass, Kanawha County Family Court Judge Mike Kelly.

As soon as Kelly appeared on the screen, Halburn became infuriated, immediately stood up, interrupted the class and announced that he was going to give his opinion of Kelly.

Whereupon he was told to leave. He refused and continued to talk.

Halburn then demanded that the teacher resign. Now. 

Then he wanted to know who her boss was.  

 

 Two Deputies were called and Halburn was told in no uncertain terms to "Get the fuck out."

Halburn complained he didn't appreciate the Deputy's language and the Deputy told him to have fun finding someone to complain to.






Keep it up, meathead.

You've only got 30 percent custody now.

Getting thrown out of a parenting class is not going to improve your percentage of daddy time.

The All Seeing Eye never blinks, motherfucker.
We're watching you.

Mark Halburn STILL Hates Dogs

Runs Over Beloved Pet

Putnam Avenue behind the Hurricane Sheetz was the scene of a senseless accident Saturday morning, due to carelessness.



Mark Hallburn, a homeless transient driving a cheap Korean sub-compact car, struck a dog behind Sheetz on Hurricane Creek Road Saturday morning.
Speculation is that he was probably distracted by the yummy sandwich he had just purchased.
Hallburn left the scene after the accident and claimed there was no damage to his vehicle.



Later that afternoon, he said he had damage to his car and showed up at the dog's owner's house wanting money.

They told him to fuck off.

What kind of dick hits a dog and then expects the dog owner to pay? The dog owner should go after him.

You can bet your ass Halburn didn't go over there to offer to pay for the dog's injuries.

The dog's condition is unknown, but it was expected to live.
Halburn too, is expected to live, just somewhere else.

UPDATE: Halburn is apparently saying elsewhere that he has left a comment here with HIS explanation that we haven't printed. He is lying.
You want to see your comment? Then post it, pussy.

Halburn Douches It Up At The Doctor's

His price? ONE MILLION DOLLARS!!!

PutnamLIES.com's medical correspondent was out and about yesterday.
Seems her little girl was sick so a visit to the doctor was in order. While she was there an interesting patient came in.

That's right, Mark Halburn and his son.

Halburn had called in to make an appointment for the boy and was told that he could walk in and they would try to fit him in. Apparently they weren't moving fast enough for him so he got all huffy and demanded a 1 million dollar fee for wasting his time.



What you can't see in this video are his ever present sandals.
You can however, see his daytimer or manpurse or whatever it is that he has clutched in his pudgy little hand as he waddles out the door. Seriously, why does an unemployed sociopath need a schedule book? To keep track of the things he doesn't have to do? Or to keep track of the people he needs to harass?

Typical Hallburn though. He has no appointment, they try to work him in and he shits on them for trying to help.

Dr Evil? More like Ungrateful Fat Bastard.

We're watching you, motherfucker. The all seeing eye never blinks.

Happy Birthday To Us!

It's been exactly two years now since we decided we'd had enough of Halburn's shit. He can no longer abuse with impunity Putnam County's citizens, government officials or anyone else that disagrees with him. Our mission when we started PutnamLIES.com was to expose the lies, hypocrisy and unethical behavior of PutnumLive and its "publisher" Mark Hallburn.

And that we have done.

We are now THE outlet for people to answer the scurrilous charges that he makes.

He has discovered that it's not so fun when the sandal is on the other foot.

It was a big year for PutnamLIES.com and Hallburn continued his long slow slide into oblivion.

So with that said, let's look at the last year.


Pool Whining Continues

Halburn continued his yearly whining about the pools closing the last week in August due to the lifeguards all going back to school.

Then in the spring, we proved him wrong on the cost of holding the end of season Dog Swim.

And it's coming again, so get ready.


Halburn Strokes Out

In October, the news the world was waiting for was released. Halburn had stroked out.

Unfortunately for everyone it was only Bell's Palsy and he is expected to recover.

But he does have diabetes, high blood pressure and sleep apnea, so there is still hope.


Rezoning Maps

Hallburn's investigative reporting uncovered the double secret zoning change to his second wife's property. Except it wasn't her property.PutnamLIES.com proved his allegations wrong. Again.

Anyone that could read a deed and a map could see that.

Except the dummy.

Calls Karen Haynes "A Bitch"

Last fall Hallburn started douching up the trailer park of the internet, Topix, with his presence. In October he called the tireless Karen Haynes "a bitch" because she is married to Hallburn's imagined nemesis Joe Haynes and because of her tireless work raising funds for a new Putnam County Animal Shelter.

Hallburn, you're not fit to scrape the dogshit off this lady's shoes. 
Fired Again

Shortly thereafter, he lost his insurance job with Woodmen of The World, after an incident where he harassed several people at Buffalo's Octoberfest, while he was there representing the insurance company.

Election Warning
Just before the general election in November, the West Virginia Secretary of State sent a warning to Putnam County officials that Halburn might attempt to create a scene and try to disrupt the electoral process. Due to the proactive efforts of the prosecutor and sheriff's office a potential problem was averted.

Desperation Redesign
Late in the year, in a desperate attempt to attract advertisers and bolster his shrinking readership, Hallburn had his news blog redesigned. Now he has a hit counter so he can falsify the number of imaginary readers that he thinks his site gets. He even let the genius that did the redesign to change his URL from a .com to a far less desirable .net.

MySpace 1994 has become MySpace 2010. The same old shit with a barely new look. Proving once again that you can't polish a turd.

Which led to: 

Hit Counter Proven To Be A Fraud

PutnamLIES.com's IT expert showed how Hallburn inflates his hit counter by loading almost 100 different links on every pageload, thereby artificially inflating the actual visitors by a factor of 100. We proved his actual daily readership was about 29 readers.

Form Letters From Politicians

After being exposed multiple times by PutnamLIES.com for stealing letters to the editor from other sources, Halburn was reduced to running press releases from politicians as letters promoting their agendas and Facebook comments masquerading as letters.

Started Running Coupons

Proving that his blog is truly nothing more than a cluttered advertising shopper, Hallburn started running coupons.

Continues Running "News" Stories About "Advertisers"

He continues his unethical practice of running fawning stories about his so-called advertisers under the guise of news.

We're putting you, your "advertisers" and anyone else you promote on notice, fatboy. We are going to parody and belittle all of you. If you're a business and you don't want it done, don't associate with Hallburn. He is a boil on the ass of civilized society and we're here to lance it.

Election Ad Fiasco

We exposed the fact that ads for both Betty Ireland and Natalie Tennant that Hallburn placed on his blog before the Gubernatorial primary were not authorized and were not paid for by either campaign, despite containing the "Paid For By" disclaimer at the bottom, a clear violation of WV election law.

Both the candidates and their supporters wanted NOTHING to do with Hallburn or his blog. Hallburn was never able to provide any proof that the ads were paid for, a fact which both candidates' financial reports confirmed.

Narrowly Avoids Arrest in Charlotte 
While sponging off his second wife when she was in North Carolina for a Mary Kay pyramid seminar this March, Halburn was involved in pool incidents at at least 2 different hotels. The police were called in the second incident and Hallburn was escorted out of the hotel along with an unnamed minor boy. Shortly after they returned home, his second wife was fired from a teaching job she had held for a number of years, allegedly over her husband's behavior.

Falsifies Own Poll Results

As part of the pathetic "redesign" of his blog, Hallburn added a poll on a sidebar which he loads up with slanted questions. But, Hallburn being Hallburn can't leave anything alone that goes against his preconceived ideas, so he alters the results to make them give the answer he wants. When we called him on it, he went so far as to accuse HIS readers of stacking the poll.

And we end our year with Halburn's latest escapade.

Thrown Out Of Strayer University

In May Halburn was thrown out of Strayer University in Teays Valley where he was attending grad school for a degree in, are you ready for this, Human Relations. Yeah, we got a good laugh out of that too.

But seriously, he went in, caused a big stink, threatened the Dean and was thrown out.

The best part? The Dean is a 4th Degree Black Belt in Taekwondo. She could have kicked his ass all the way back to California.

PutnamLIES.com was started to do one thing: Expose the lies that Mark Halburn was printing every day on his blog. The LIES we're talking about are his. We've been doing it now for two years, and he still doesn't seem to like it very much.

His advertisers have left and his readership numbers, which were greatly exaggerated in the first place, are WAY down. His endless whining about Walmart declined somewhat, but his Walmart blog is long gone.

He's slipped into utter irrelevance because of us and it kills him.

Now people are asking him about us.

But our job's still not over..
Here at PutnamLIES.com, we promise to continue to report the truth even if some loudmouth douchebag whines and cries about it. He was used to being able to do whatever he wanted without question. PutnamLIES.com will continue to call him on his unethical behavior and illegal practices, even as he continues to stalk Girl of Words and continues to embarrass himself with his bogus vendettas and accusations.

Readership and support for PutnamLIES.com continues to rise. Halburn and PutnumLive continues to embarass themselves.

Anytime a future employer Googles his name, they'll be able to find this site and see the truth about him. In fact the number one Google result for the word Halburn is a page that contains his mental evaluation.

Someday in the not too distant future, a little boy will be able to see just what kind of asshole his daddy really is.

The internet is forever. This site and the information on it will follow Hallburn around until the day he dies. Which can't come soon enough for us.

We'd also like to thank all our loyal readers, our correspondents Harry Stamper and Dolemite and the other members of the Trash Bloggers Alliance: Girl of Words, Tyler Hollywood, Lee, Lenny, Tybois and all the rest. We couldn't do what we do without the help and input of our readers.

Our work here is not done. Our output may have slowed but that's only because we have forced the other publisher to alter the way he does business.

We are not going away.

We'll be all around in the dark. We'll be everywhere.

Wherever you can look; wherever he's smeared someone because they won't submit to his demands - we'll be there. Wherever Hallburn's pickin' on a woman - we'll be there. When he harasses people at their workplace - we'll be there.

And when people laugh and clap their hands when they hear he's leaving, we'll be there, too.



We're watching you, Hallburn. The all seeing eye never blinks.



PutnamLIES.com will be here one day longer than Hallburn and his cluttered opinion blog.

What's in store for the next year? Only Halburn's behavior can determine that.

But, keep watching PutnamLIES.com for a revealing new series of articles.
