Mark Halburn says he'll shut down his blog and move.
Tired of the constant whining, the public embarrassment, the arrests, and the verbal humiliation, one neighbor of the Hurricane supercenter wants out of her marriage.
Mark Vance Halburn's wife filed for divorce on November 1 and a copy of the deed to her house was attached to the complaint. We hope Mrs. Halburn has a lawyer. You know he'll try and bully her into submission to get as much as he can.
Our Topix correspondent, sent along the following tidbit yesterday, posted there Monday night by none other than Mark Halburn, posing as "Newsguy Mark", under the heading of "Hallburns are divorcing".
"Before someone else announces it, I'm posting it here. All good things must come to an end, it seems. Tired of the Putnam County harassment, I am moving south. No adultery was committed. No more details, it's none of anybody's business. Show some class and leave it alone."
Well, that's not going to happen, fuckhead. No one's ever accused us of having any class, so let's just get right to it.
You say you're tired of the Putnam County harassment? And you're moving south? Great. We're tired of it too.
Have you already picked out someone new to harass down there? You should get in shape so it won't make you so tired this time.
Where are going to live? You have NO money. You should've thought this through before you once again tried your little sympathy kick. Or did you find a desperate semi-barren old maid on the internet to support you? Maybe someday you can buy YOUR third wife some cheap Chinese shoes.
And why even say "No adultery was committed" out of the blue? What brought that up?
You might as well have said "There is no taco salad" and it would have made as much sense.
Adultery? Hah! You haven't seen your cock in years.
How about mental cruelty?
We've seen how you treat women. We've seen how you bully and belittle people. Could it have been any different for your poor wife behind closed doors?
We can see that being prohibited from taking your child to the park can be a real marital strain. We can see getting fired (again) (you claim you quit, which would be even worse in this economy) from another job with benefits after only six months would cause problems. We can see that being publicly shamed for your behavior at the doctor's office might put a chill on things. The non-stop ranting and raving about trivial matters and all of your other juvenile behavior. It's cumulative. It takes a toll.
Maybe it was when you weren't at home in the evenings and things were so much nicer. Quiet. No chaos or drama. Reality finally strikes.
Looks like she finally reached her limit with you. After 13 years of your joblessness and being an impediment to life, she'd had enough.
She was totally taken in by you, which is how you sociopaths operate, which probably makes her all the more angry.
But on the other hand you've acted this way since you were married. She's seen how you behaved and saw how you were treated like a pariah and she went along with it, either by choice or by force.
PutnamLIES.com knew something was up a couple of months ago. He changed his Facebook status from "Married to DMH" to just "Married". Then she appeared to have defriended him on Facebook, plus his sister, his nieces and nephews ... all of them.
What's he going to do now? Change his status to "single" or "it's complicated"?
Then he goes on to say:
"I don't publish divorces on Putnum LIVE dot com. I am sure PutnamLIES will slime themselves some more by publishing it. Papers were supposed to be filed today. It's in the lawyer's hands.
I'm releasing the news here because I wanted SOME control over the inevitable publicity.
My plans are to move south and sell the news web site. I've already picked out a house that I will buy once the current one is sold.
The prospective new owner of Putnam LIVE dot com is a hard-hitting journalist that will give the bad guys that run this county nightmares that will surpass ANYTHING that I have done. The bastards will get what they deserve!"
You don't publish them but you've had plenty of snide comments to make about other people's divorces.
Believe me, assmunch, as soon as we get the papers we'll publish them.
You wanted to "release" this on the trailer park of the internet. How appropriate for you since you're lower than trailer trash.
Funny though that you didn't announce it on PutnumLive or Facebook. I guess you wanted someplace that more than 29 people would see. That sure will happen here.
You don't even have a claim on the house, asshole. Property acquired before marriage is not a marital asset. And, your name was never on the deed, as you insisted in pointing out at least five times in your deposition. Plus, your mother-in-law has an interest in the house as half owner. At most, all you'd be entitled to is 25% of the profits.
So, unless your second wife is so desperate to get away from you that she'd sell it for whatever she could get out of it and GIVE you some of it, all she owes you is a kick in your flabby ass as she sends you out the door, while she, her son and her Mother continue to live there. It'll be a lot more tolerable with you gone.
She's always been your meal ticket.
She works, cleans, cooks, takes care of the kid and she and her mother own the house. You can't hold a job because of your personality disorder. How are you going to survive in the real world without someone providing for you and wiping your ass?
It's about time she stopped putting up with your shit.
And then there's the son. The little boy that you've polluted and warped with your negative attitude. The only one that's truly innocent in this whole sordid mess.
Without you in the picture though, there's still hope for him. He's what 4? Get him away from you and he ought to smooth out in a few years. He has plenty of time. He'll forget a lot, because your broke ass won't come around often.He'll have a chance to start over if she drops the last name and moves to Kanawha County. If she's smart she'll petition the court to change the kid's name to give him a fighting chance. Going through life with the last name of Halburn would be like being the son of Charles Manson.You know you'll be a deadbeat dad. Collecting child support from you is going to be like pulling teeth.
God love her for giving that kid a chance. I hope she cuts all ties with you.
Then there's the house. Always the house.
That house isn't going to sell unless your second ex-wife accepts reality and puts a realistic price on it. $299,900 ain't going to do it. Reduced price? By $100? Please.
And then you bring up the Scott Edwards offer. But you never tell the truth about that.
The offer was the pre-Walmart appraisal of $149,000 plus 10%. That works out to about $164,000. You should have taken it. 100% of nothing is nothing. Which is what you have now.
Nobody wants your piece of shit opinion blog. The only thing that is worth a dime is the domain name and that's not worth much. The name is damaged goods.
Who are you going to sell it to? That hard hitting investigative reporter Jay Smith? Let him be the next one banned from everywhere. He already has the trespassing conviction to go along with it.
You know the really sweet thing? You're getting exactly what YOU deserve, you fat bastard. In public. The only thing better will be the day you pack up and leave town.
Adios, motherfucker.
As always, we invite Halburn to tell his side of the story or correct any inaccuracies, if he has the guts to.
PutnamLIES.com will have more as it becomes available.
