Congressman Trouble

After Halburn left the Social Security office last week, he went to Congressman Alex Mooney's Charleston office and demanded that they step in to get him his sons Social Security card. 

Mooney's office is located at 405 Capitol Street

He was told that they'd try to look into it, but there might not be much they could do. Halburn then demanded that Mooney himself call him no later then 5pm. Hallburn was told that Congress was out and that everyone had gone home. 
Later, Hallburn called back again and he was turned him over to the boss who asked Hallburn if Hallburn was threatening him, (Hallburn was) and in so many words, basically told Hallburn to get fucked.

Then the asshole called the DC office and tried to run his shit on them. After he was rude and abusive to them, they called Capitol police. Sent his mugshot to them. You don't fuck with federal employees, especially with his background.  The Capitol Police and FBI are now well aware of Halburn and are investigating.

Both the Capitol Police and the FBI are investigating

They have his number now and I have a feeling his name is "on the list".

It appears that he wants the kid's Social Security card so he can use it for Social Security goodies.

He's also upset that the paltry child support he pays is not tax deductible. He calls it The Child Support Penalty. He's angry that recipients of child support pay no taxes on it, but also get to deduct the child as an income tax credit.  He has been harassing Mooney's office about this as well.

That's how it works, fatass.
The child support is for the child. The tax deduction is for the person who has custody of the child.
In your case, that's NOT you.

A Visit To The Social Security Office

Halburn was sighted at the Social Security office last week trying to get a copy of his son's Social Security card.

He shuffled into the waiting room, stood around for a while looking at everyone and stinking up the place, then finally flopped his ass into a seat.

Charleston Social Security Office

There are signs posted on the walls everywhere that state NO CELL PHONE USE, but the VERY FIRST THING he did was pull out his cell phone and listened to his messages, which EVERYONE heard, because the volume was cranked up to the max. He then proceeded to make calls while he talked LOUDLY. At one point he was grilling some poor unfortunate clerk about who she was associated with, where she used to work, who she knew, etc. 
After he got his number called and went to the window, the old lady who was sitting behind him said "I'm sure glad THAT guy is gone!....
He's just a flaming asshole with NO idea how to conduct himself in public.

The real question is, why would someone with absolutely no custody of his child even need a copy of  the kid's Social Security card?
Trying to get Social Security benefits? An EBT card? A CHIP card? Applying for a credit card in the kid's name? Maybe even kidnapping?

Charleston DHHR Office

He did the same thing at the Kanawha County Department of Health &  Human Resources office last week. So much so that when he walked in, some other guy threw his arms up and said this guy's here again. They made him go out to get his ID and all the clerks started laughing while he was out. 
Seems his assholery follows him wherever he goes.

I'll bet he is applying for food stamps.

Halburn Now Stalking Bill Cole

Campaign season is underway. Looks like it going to be a long one.

Another day and Halburn refuses to stop harassing people! This time it's WV Senate President and Gubernatorial candidate Bill Cole.
Halburn is furious that WV legislators won't take up his wacky crusade against the family law system in the state.

Halburn paces back and forth outside Prime on 4th

Halburn showed up at a private event for young professionals at the Prime on 4th restaurant in Huntington that was organized to meet gubernatorial candidate Bill Cole. He walked in with his camera and video camera around his neck. Numerous people began videoing him with their phones and when he noticed it he walked completely around the room  before going back out the door.

He was thrown completely off guard. It was comical watching him retreat. He went outside to pull himself together, paced back and forth for about 5 minutes and then tried to come back in. An event organizer told him to leave, that it was a private function.  He asked one attendee "Are you filming me?"  with his whiny, lispy voice, then he left and continued to pace outside where he tried putting his hood on so he wouldn't be recognized in the footage.

The hoodie doesn't help you lardass. You can't hide that gut!
He attempted to ambush Cole about the family court system as he walked in. Not sure what the reply was to him.
The police were called and they were seen talking to Halburn before they ordered him to leave.

He didn't seem to like his own tactics being used against him. It's not so fun for him when the sandal is on the other foot.

All that wasted gas money driving through 3 counties.

PutnamLies was there waiting for him.  He let the cat out of the bag on his FB page the other night before the event. : 
"Mark Hallburn 
January 1 at 7:14pm · 
Do (sic) to Prime on 4th's hosting of the January 5th, 2016 Bill Cole for Governor event, my family will boycott Prime on 4th. Senator Cole is anti-family and allows the corrupt West Virginia Family Court system to abuse single parents, children, and elders. Responsible businesses do not support Bill Cole! "

First of all, Halburn, you don't have a family.
Second of all, you couldn't afford to eat at Prime on 4th if you wanted to.
And thirdly, the one who's abusing single parents, children, and elders is YOU.

Halburn Planning Name Change For His Hate Blog

Blobby Blogger Gets Scooped On Own Announcement

In a desperate attempt to remain relevant and run away from his toxic brand, Halburn will be changing the name and domain of his blog. The new name will be Putnam County News and Putnumcountynews. com will be the new URL. The site was registered on December 27, 2015. It's unsure when the changeover will actually take place.
He doesn't seen to understand that changing the name is not going to make people forget. His past is not going to be erased that easily.

One of the reasons for the change? He now gets to use News in the name. So now he can harass people under a new name and continue to insist "IT'S NOT A BLOG!"

The other reason? Through our efforts, his blog and its name were so damaged, so poisoned, so associated with his harassing, bullying tactics that he was forced to change the name.
And in typical style he made a new shitty logo with some copied clipart. Appropriate that he chose his notebook computer as one of the pieces of clipart..

Pretty sure he just got scooped on his own announcement. News leader my ass.

Same old shit, new name.
You can't polish a turd, all you can do is put a bow on it.

As we always said, we would be here one day longer than putnumlive. com, and that pledge has been fulfilled.
The same thing applies to his new name. One day longer.

Halburn Loses Before Supreme Court Again

The big fat loser loses again.

That's right, Halburn. We're laughing at you again, bitch!

Mark Vance Halburn's parenting plan will not be modified.

He will however have to pay $1000 in sanctions to the Family court for filing frivolous motions.


Halburn wanted permanent custody of his child or substantially more visitation and the freedom to take the kid out of state. The child's mother wanted Halburn's visitation restricted to supervised visitation.

He lost.
Again.

Here are the highlights.

CUSTODY
 
The Court wrote:

"In their original 2013 order The Court affirmed the family court’s order directing Halburn not to take the child from the State of West Virginia..The Court noted petitioner’s diagnosis of personality disorder and determined that the family court properly “recognized and emphasized that there exists potential for grave harm to this child” when he is in Halburn’s care given petitioner’s “confirmed propensity for interpersonal conflict.” 

"A court shall modify a parenting plan order if it finds, on the basis of facts that were not known or have arisen since the entry of the prior order and were not anticipated therein, that a substantial change has occurred in the circumstances of the child or of one or both parents and a modification is necessary to serve the best interests of the child."

"To show that such a substantial change in circumstances occurred—i.e., Halburn is now better able to control his personality disorder and resulting behavior— Halburn presented the testimony of two witnesses. Both witnesses admitted that the information they had about the parties’ case and Halburn’s conduct came solely from Halburn, which the family court found diminished their credibility. As the family court noted, Halburn’s psychologist “specifically declined to give any recommendation regarding the expansion of Halburn’s time with his son.”

They didn't believe Halburn or his witnesseses.
NO modification of visitation or custody

SANCTIONS

The family court found that “Halburn has clogged the courts with frivolous, harassing, offensive and impossible demands and has exhibited little to no self-control. He has made a number of impossible-to-achieve and nonsensical requests and demands of the Family Court and this Court during the course of these proceedings.”

The family court  sanctioned Halburn on two prior occasions. He was sanctioned $250 for the first incident and $500 for the second incident. He kept on filing motions.
After he filed a tenth disqualification motion that was denied, the family court sanctioned him in the amount of $1,000.

The Supreme Court determined that the family court implemented a graduated scale for sanctioning Halburn. They found that to be proper and concluded that the family court did not abuse its discretion in sanctioning Halburn in the amount of $1,000.

Pay up motherfucker.

The DYING GRANDMOTHER

Halburn complains that the family court improperly restricted his examination of his witnesses by preventing him from asking questions that contradicted statements made in an email Halburn sent in 2012.

Halburn lies that the email either never existed or was fabricated.


The family court ruled at the hearing that the fact that the email DID exist and contradicted the basis for certain of petitioner’s questions.

Fatboy loves to whine that the judge somehow kept his son from seeing his grandmother. He conveniently ignores his words from that email that the court quoted in the final divorce order.

He told his self serving side of the story on his blog. Read the real story from the WV Supreme Court's memo.

"However, the day prior to filing his emergency motion, Mr. Halburn emailed his wife that "My mom is too far gone for (the son) to visit her now. She is incoherent and might scare him. Unless something changes we have missed the wonderful opportunity for him to see his grandmother and for her to enjoy him."

The Court concluded that during the December 18, 2014, hearing, the family court properly prevented Halburn from asking questions that contradicted statements made in the 2012 email.

Like Father Like Son

Kar Killer
No-Shame November continues for Halburn
 
Halburn follows in the steps of his Dad when he admits to killing someone with a car.

Not sure what brought this lie on.
He was responding to one of those inane "Twenty Six Things about me" Facebook lists, when for the letter K he wrote this:

"K- Killed someone?: Yes. In 1994 I purposely ran over a man in a parking lot that was shooting at the retail store where he just robbed a clerk. He landed about 150 feet away... The gun went farther. The cops thanked me!"

Now, this is a guy who will trot out the most outlandish stories to gain sympathy but there's never ever been a reason for him to use this to his back-patting advantage until now?
This is something that would have been on every media outlet in the country had it actually happened.

This ranks right up there with his lie of saving the family from the burning car.

He should have followed that with "L- I'm a congenital liar."

Preferential treatment and theft

Halburn has a feature on his hate blog that he calls "In The Kitchen," where he regurgitates restaurant inspection reports that he has harassed the Putnam County Health Department into sending him.
What's so unusual about that, you may say?
What's unusual is that he has NEVER printed the results of a Health Department inspection for any Gino's, Tudor's or Barnyard Barbeque restaurant, all three of which "advertise" on his blog.

In addition, he stole the graphic for those articles from the Food Network show "The Kitchen"
Just two more examples of his continuing unethical journalistic behavior.








Update:
It took him less than 24 hours to change those graphics after we called his hand.
And he s̲t̲i̲l̲l̲ hasn't ever printed a health inspection involving a Gino's, Tudor's or Barnyard Barbeque the entire time he's been writing his blog.
Disagree Fatboy?
Prove it.
