And thus does it end…
June 8th, 2012
Still waiting on apologies….Blue Falcon, Dude, you guys out there?
Next argument up will be I am picking on a mentally handicapped guy. Who also has an arrest warrant out there now.
Also, for those who care, I am on 20/20 right now.
Or not. Looks like the entire Poe segment got canned.
UPDATE: Here is my friend Donna, and this stuttering crying asshat.
June 8th, 2012 at 10:19 pm
Oh looks like the PTSD claim is coming out.
As for Poe himself, a family member says she fears he’s suicidal. He hasn’t left the house since the scandal broke, and he’s been crying incessantly. One family member says Poe is suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome.
June 8th, 2012 at 10:30 pm
Thanks for taking point on this, TSO, you done good.
June 8th, 2012 at 10:33 pm
Has the story been on 20/20 yet? I switched channels because I couldn’t stomach watching the PoS who faked cancer for her wedding and now there’s a guy who lied to go through high school again (really? I taught high school for over 10 years–never knew anyone who wanted to go there voluntarily…)
Really hoping I haven’t missed Poe yet…
June 8th, 2012 at 10:38 pm
Jonn’s wallet is stamped, “BAD MOTHER FUCKER.”
That is all.
June 8th, 2012 at 10:38 pm
Pass the Bar Exam AND gets on 20/20 all in one week WTF’NG TSO!!!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IyMP6lkz7Co
Found the video just especially for you TSO just go to that link. LOL
June 8th, 2012 at 10:39 pm
Not yet, I think I will be on last.
June 8th, 2012 at 10:41 pm
Congrats, TSO: Solid reporting and research. You’ve done the good guys proud.
June 8th, 2012 at 10:41 pm
Give credit where credit is due, the other dude. It’s TSO who broke the Poe story. And I hear TSO has that tattooed on his
right bicep. (smile)
June 8th, 2012 at 10:47 pm
Zomg, I can’t believe this dipshit. I’ll smack a real stutter into him!
June 8th, 2012 at 10:48 pm
All the credit in the world to TSO for exposing this guy.
Having listened to the radio interview, I’m still thinking he is trying to continue to run his con, but with a different spin: “Oh poor me. I am so pathetic and sad and damaged. Please take pity on this poor broken man.” Give him a few months for the heat to die down and for people to forget and he’ll be trying some different hook for a different crowd. I just get a wrong guy vibe from him.
June 8th, 2012 at 10:53 pm
20/20 never looked so good. But how can you fault the guy? I mean SERIOUSLY he said right there he believes it in HIS OWN MIND. lol. What a douchebag.
June 8th, 2012 at 10:57 pm
Wow. 20/20 screwed me so bad.
They completely wasted my entire day.
June 8th, 2012 at 10:59 pm
I can’t even listen to the whole damn thing. The stu stu stu stupid studering BS makes me want to punch his mother in the ovaries.
June 8th, 2012 at 11:09 pm
Clever girl, ABC…making me sit through an hour for that two-second clip.
I know people have asked this before, but I just don’t get how he didn’t think he would be caught. I mean, how could he *not* think that people would recognize the real people in the photos he submitted, or that people who know him wouldn’t step forward and call his bullshit? Or that people like you, TSO, exist and would rip his story a new asshole? Just don’t get it.
June 8th, 2012 at 11:09 pm
I just watched 20/20 for no reason other than to fuel my hatred for pretty much everyone….there wasn’t a beard to be seen on that show
June 8th, 2012 at 11:18 pm
I guess it wasn’t a total waste of an hour….I did get to stare at all grown up Dominique Moceanu who just seems like a lovely person to on….i mean around…
June 8th, 2012 at 11:19 pm
My speculation is that because he fessed up, it kind of took the drama out of it. I did note however that the correspondent that did my portion ended up not being the correspondent for the actual segment. So I think they intended to do a piece on whether he was lying or not, and then once he said “I’m batshit crazy” it took the ooompf out of that focus.
June 8th, 2012 at 11:42 pm
Jesus, I want to curb stomp his fucking stupid ass
June 8th, 2012 at 11:51 pm
He’s already called a VA hospital to get some treatment? Like what? An enima to remove the shit from his brains?
June 9th, 2012 at 12:03 am
Cocksucker needs to be strung up by his balls
June 9th, 2012 at 12:25 am
He went to the VA to what? Get a blankie? Shit at least he could be a fuckin man about it.
June 9th, 2012 at 12:27 am
Good. Cry, you fucking lying pathetic pussy. I’ve carried people off the battlefield in bags who you aren’t fit to speak the name of. You earned the attention, asshole.
June 9th, 2012 at 12:32 am
@17- TSO, they could have dropped you because Poe fessed up, but Occam’s razor suggests that the Blue Falcon called in a favor from one of his collected scalps to get you pulled off the air, under the pretense that he would take his foot off the guy’s throat long enough for him to catch a breath of air.
Because the Blue Falcon fucking hates lawers.
Ca-CAW!!!!
June 9th, 2012 at 1:46 am
Crocodile tears. He’s upset only because he’s been caught. What an absolute piece of shit. I hope he spends some time in jail.
June 9th, 2012 at 2:00 am
Now comes the sorries,crying and seeking help! only after he is caught with no way out. TSO,Annand Jag, Ican I claim PTSD for stromping him thru the curb? Or if I talk to him in Morse code left hand for Dot and Right hand for Dash. It will be a long message. What are rates? Joe PS, been a long time since I have really wanted to harm another person. this,OT,Tim and Yat yas I cannot think of a word or phrease for this “thing”. Joe
June 9th, 2012 at 2:01 am
He’s got an arrest warrant out? For what? I was working, I missed a few hours of the epic smack down as it was unfolding.
June 9th, 2012 at 2:02 am
Sorry, TSO. You are da man. My apologies!
June 9th, 2012 at 2:05 am
where you at, Blue Falcon? Still defending this SOB? LOL. You barracks shysters suck.
June 9th, 2012 at 2:06 am
Congrats TSO, but I know how 20/20 feels. I’m disappointed that this wasn’t more painful for him.
June 9th, 2012 at 2:31 am
Something tells me that this has yet to play out.
June 9th, 2012 at 2:32 am
Yeah… it’ll probably end with Poe taking AGT hostage and demanding his crown.
June 9th, 2012 at 3:01 am
If he got PTSD from being a total pussy then I’m going to claim PTSD from when the DFACs stopped providing individual Grandma’s Cookies packets for us to hoard. Then I’m going to use that diagnosis to stop a real stutter into him. And probably castrate him for the good of humanity. I’m sure at the very least his menagerie of ex-wives would appreciate it.
June 9th, 2012 at 4:25 am
I think I am gonna hurl chunks listening to the friggin douchiest of all bags.
June 9th, 2012 at 5:56 am
Here’s Poe’s “reality” #1 – Poe saw an opportunity to gain sympathy from a sympathetic public and AGT staff.
“Reality” #2 – Poe saw an opportunity to enrich himself based on the aforementioned sympathies. One doesn’t have to win AGT in order have future monetary success.
“Reality” #3 – Kiss my Irish ass you phony SOB/POS – you’re done for thanks to TAH, TSO and and Poe’s former friends at the 114th (and others).
June 9th, 2012 at 5:58 am
Sorry your time was wasted TSO. But thank you for getting this unraveled!
I couldn’t listen to any of it. I was so completely disgusted by his “pity-party I got busted” act in the video, I’m now nauseous. He reminds me of one of our guys in Iraq. Started crying and wouldn’t stop. Hadn’t heard a shot fired in anger or even seen a bad guy AND he was the tool room guy. Wasn’t doing any flying. He ended up going home over it cause he was just too afraid to be there.
Some people just aren’t made for this shit. Poe is one of them. I feel no sympathy for him because he outright made shit up. Tens of thousands of service members who served honorably don’t make things up about what they did. I think Poe is just a scared, shitty excuse of a man.
If he gets DX’ed as PTSD, then the only catalyst I can see causing it is his getting his bullshit exposed on National TV.
June 9th, 2012 at 6:21 am
Proof again, Pags is a class act. Poe on the other hand well if he really is delusional I hope he gets the help he needs. The folks @ AGT and the rest of the so called MSM all need to be sent back through ethics class. I think two major things happened in this case the producers @ AGT got so blinded by the potential ratings and rise in money that they didn’t bother checking things out, (while I can understand wanting to trust a Vet: in the words of the great Ronald Reagan: trust but verify!) I wonder if same producers who were so willing to use Mr. Poe for a ratings, do the right thing and help him get the help he needs. This whole thing is a major reason why we need Stolen Valor. To the MSM folks who totally failed to give credit to THA and TSO, you have just lost my, viewer ship, not just for your new programs and web sites but also regular programming. Actions have consequencs.
To ‘the dude’ and BlueFalcon are you all man enough to do what you were calling on TSO to do and apologized to TSO! But I’m not going to hold my breath!
Thanks again TSO for all your hard work and putting up with the crazies.

June 9th, 2012 at 7:08 am
What PTS??? The only stress this clown has had is having to admit that he has no more ways out of his lies.
He’s a criminal, a fraud, a liar, a con man, and he is continuing his schtick, with mutating variations.
People with real PTS are self-destructive. This fool is just your garden variety user (both literally and figuratively) who manufactures stories to bilk others.
June 9th, 2012 at 7:25 am
#26… Radar Online says…”arrest warrant in Denton County, Tex. stemming from a 2002 misdemeanor assault charge against a family member.”
Too bad it wasn’t a felony so maybe he’d get some time and made someone’s bitch.
June 9th, 2012 at 8:37 am
What a pussy!
As for the Dude and Blue Falcon; this just in from Fire Direction/Target Evaluation center on these two:
“Target eval says these two are of no value, do not engage, save ammunition. Repeat Do Not Engage.”
June 9th, 2012 at 9:14 am
This is what happens when mentally weak cunts join the military in times of war, worried only about self preservation then, worried only about self preservation now….man needs to be tattoed as a coward and by given duty at a national cemetery as punishment. Fucking cry baby dirt bag.
June 9th, 2012 at 9:28 am
Going out not with a bang but a whimper. Why am I not surprised?
June 9th, 2012 at 9:43 am
A 2002 arrest warrant out on him in TX, eh? And he left the state, went 1000+ miles north, and joined the MN ARNG in Oct 2002, right?
Gee – I wonder if there’s a connection between the two. (smile)
Unfortunately, lying about that on his enlistment paperwork in 2002 is probably well past the statue of limitations. And I believe lying about it on subsequent reenlistment paperwork would be a state issue, since he was in the MN ARNG. I don’t think MN will try to go after him now since he’s no longer a MN resident.
But I wonder if he’s put in for a security clearance within the past 5-7 years. He’d have to answer questions concerning past criminal behavior and/or legal problems on that paperwork too. And that should be within the statute of limitations for filing a false statement (7 years, I believe).
Security clearances are granted by the Federal government, so that would be Federal paperwork. And filing a false statement there would thus be a Federal crime – in this case, I believe a felony.
June 9th, 2012 at 9:47 am
@Hondo – Just my perception, but Poe doesn’t strike me as the type to work at more than the local Jiffy Lube.
I’d bet good money that he’s not well versed on the cleared arena.
June 9th, 2012 at 9:58 am
I concur with your impression of Poe, CI. But he may well have had to put in for a clearance pre-deployment in 2009. If I recall correctly, his unit was tasked to provide transportation support for a number of US and/or NATO installations. Working in unit supply would likely require him to have access to movement schedules, supply manifests, etc . . . . I believe some if not all such would be classified in theater.
June 9th, 2012 at 10:04 am
If asscrack is having a problem remembering what happened to him, maybe he needs to read his entire medical record, not the two pages that he submitted.
June 9th, 2012 at 10:51 am
Hondo I somehow doubt he wold have been allowed access to anything classified above FOUO. He didn’t seem to have the brains to do his job in supply so I doubt he could have filled out the long form for a clearance. Most classified stuff would be in the S-3 shop and those who had an NTK would find out and I don’t see Poe having an NTK for anything bigger than the TS Clearance for a roll of John Wayne toilet paper.
June 9th, 2012 at 10:59 am
@Hondo – You’re correct that those items would be close hold, if not Secret//Rel……….but its really an overall minority of Soldiers at that grade who have had the money and time invested in clearance adjudication. It’s still possible that he was submitted for a clearance, but I’m (hopefully) doubtful that be would have been.
June 9th, 2012 at 11:05 am
Is it just me, or does his stuttering go away when he has to focus on faking his tears?
Glad to see that TAH is getting national attention: msnbc, abc, etc. Take the publicity you can. Remember your roots. And keep up the good work. As the new readers realize you’re here, some will return & some will forget the story in a day.
Good job Jonn & Mark!
June 9th, 2012 at 11:20 am
“Radar Online says…”arrest warrant in Denton County, Tex. stemming from a 2002 misdemeanor assault charge against a family member.” ”
Sounds like a domestic violence act. That was a a specific disqualifier for deployment both times I deployed (Kuwait, 2007 and Afghanistan in 2011, and yes I am a Fobbit), because you are not allowed to carry a weapon with that on on your record.
June 9th, 2012 at 11:22 am
Should have said “was a Fobbit”
June 9th, 2012 at 12:10 pm
You were better off on Nightline.
June 9th, 2012 at 3:25 pm
Is it just me? I don’t see any actual tears.
Also, his “apology” to Donna Cranston holds no water with me. Donna started texting him on Tuesday morning asking to speak with him. He did text her back that he would call her. She even sent him a text with specific questions she wanted answered. He has never responded to that.
He’s had time to do at least 2 radio interviews (one on Tuesday) several interviews with print media and now the WFAA on camera interview. Still ZERO calls to Donna and no longer responding to text messages. Speaks more than volumns.
June 9th, 2012 at 4:52 pm
[...] With tears and apologies. [...]
June 9th, 2012 at 9:04 pm
Hopefully he is made to pay back all donations, charity etc. to whom he defrauded. His apology is not worth spit. But to get money from him or what little he has (lawsuit) will make ammends and then also when his assets are frozen then hopefully have them auctioned off again all money can then be donated to a proper Veterans association or something along the lines. Again just a thought.
June 9th, 2012 at 10:34 pm
OK TSO, I have found out were the stutter came from. Kudos to my wife who picked up on this in the 20/20 piece-Poe is Aaron Stampler from Primal Fear AKA Ed Norton.

June 9th, 2012 at 10:59 pm
Hey, you guys aren’t reading the caption with that photo, are you? It says he’s “retired” Army SGT Pinhead Timmy Poe. Since when do you get to retire with less than 20 years of service in any branch of the military? (except for Starfleet geeks, of course.)
And he wasn’t really crying, you know. He had to poke himself in the eye to generate tears. Geez, guys, if you’re gonna cry on camera, sniff an onion first.
June 10th, 2012 at 12:53 pm
#56 medical retirements. I.e. retired for medical reasons.

June 10th, 2012 at 5:38 pm
I’m so sorry all u vets r hurting yet again. ty for service u performed. he is so full of it. he reminded me of aaron stampler right off n maybe jr martinez in that he’s jealous. he n
eeds to pay for his lies
June 10th, 2012 at 6:46 pm
#57, I agree that medically retired is valid. I knew two people in the Navy in 1972, one enlisted and one officer, who were medically retired, but both had been completely physically incapacitated in combat.
Back then, and now, too, a LOT of disfunction is required to get 100% disability for mental health reasons. Combatants with brain damage from mortar attacks are currently being sent back into the field by the Army, judged as fit to serve. Weeping and stuttering don’t constitute 100% disability or being unfit to serve.
The guy has a problem, yes, but any psych will tell you that men and women with real PTSD want to FORGET what happened, not remember it.
Besides, he’s a REALLY bad actor.
June 11th, 2012 at 12:17 am
he is a pathetic liar. he came out
grinning and all too willing to illicit sympathy
June 11th, 2012 at 2:53 am
sgt asshat hasn’t admitted a damn thing! “What’s in my own mind”, “What I truly believe”, “The things I remember”. I mentioned in another thread, how can you ‘remember’ something that never happened? There was a headshrinker type that posted about him not being delusional or crazy or a nut job; rather he was a pathological liar, sociopath, etc. I’m a garbage so I don’t know about all this jumbo-jumbo, all my simple mind can process is, he’s a lying sack of dog turds and until he “apologizes” I will continue to hit every site I can find and call him exactly what he is.
