“UNFAIR” COVERAGE OF UPSTATE CONTROVERSY

Hey Fits News –

I have read your unfair coverage of the Josh Kimbrell case and buddy, you are clueless.  Thanks to corrupt media people like you, you’ll forever share responsibility for the welfare of Tristan Kimbrell! You only wish you knew the inside story!

Did you know that Kacy Lyons Kimbrell Hatmaker VOLUNTARILY submitted herself to a complete psychological exam AND a lie detector test and passed both with flying colors?  And by the same token, her ex-husband, Josh Kimbrell REFUSED? As they say, “facts are a stubborn” thing.  Did you know that the South Carolina DSS is being investigated in a federal class action suit for being so poorly run and for horrific crimes against children being overlooked and improperly investigated? Do you think that maybe that, along with the bottom-less family resources, privilege and power of the media afforded to Josh, may have made a difference in the outcome here?  You have NO IDEA what Kacy has endured over the years at the hands of her “slick Willy” and abusive ex-husband.  She is sick with worry for her child.  I am a mother and grieve with her.  Shame, shame, shame, on you!  Kacy is a wonderful mother and she (all for Tristan) is the one who needs advocates!

All I can say for Josh is that “his sin will find him out” in time if he is guilty (I only say “if” because we are supposed to say “innocent until proven guilty.”) But this farce of hearings of late, a corrupt DSS, wealthy parents, Josh and radio, and YOU, did not allow for the truth to be told.  And God will not be mocked! A man reaps what he sows! (Galations).  That includes corrupt media people too.

In the meantime, that … boy is continuing to suffer!

Anon: First of all thanks for sending this.  We appreciate the perspective very much.  As for your question “did I know about SCDSS,” of course I did – no one has done more to expose that agency than I have.  No one.  As for the Kimbrell case in particular, FITS has covered its developments as they have happened … and we make no apologies for reporting on the determinations of SCDSS, the local family court and most recently, an Upstate solicitor who is clearly at odds with Kimbrell.  In the event Kacy wishes to tell her side of the story, I am more than happy to publish it – whether that’s coming from her, her attorney or anonymous supporters such as yourself.  Seems pretty “fair” coming from “corrupt media people” like me, don’t you think?

Wanna sound off? Send your letter to the editor HERE.  Or mail it (as the above author did) to FITSNews – PO Box 3642 – Irmo, S.C. 29063.

Rather than bring up Josh, why is no one talking about Curtis Loftis being jailed for beating his ex-wife? Or his questionable lifestyle? Or his unchristian ways? Or his fiscal liberalism?

First of all I’m jealous you keep making these “wifebeater” comments regarding Curtis. That’s MY badge of honor you are messing with, bro. Also, whatever your axe to grind with him may be (and I assure you I don’t care), the comments are beginning to resemble spam … which means you’re only costing yourself credibility.

Continuous anti-loftis comments, by a handful of posters united by money, hatred, greed and envy, show a sickness that affects only those mired in sin..

They are liars and deceivers, aiming to damage the Treasurer, but they seem to be pleasing only themselves and persuading no one.

Sinful activities like lying, deceiving and slandering come from wounds to the heart. We should all pray for their twisted souls.

Hundreds and hundreds of comments posted against Loftis show the true nature of these liars and deceivers. They are envious, greedy, jealous and sinful people, compelled by their on sin to assault Loftis.

The bible says: “The beginning of the words of his mouth is foolishness, and the end of his talk is evil madness.”

A liar and a deceiver is a fool. He sells his soul for pennies and his master profits. he is damned for his foolish choices.

I have to say you sure can take a punch. Life lessons have taught me that in these CDV situations there are always two sides and the truth tends to run right up the middle. No other person can push another’s buttons like the person you are intimate with. The problem is it is the person who inflicts the most physical damage that pays the price in the legal system.

Any comments by Anonymous regarding psychological exam or lie detector test should be regarded as false, since that has not been reported, nor has Anonymous revealed how he/she would have that kind of information. Also, you can prepare and defeat those examinations. If Anonymous was fair as he/she expects from the media, reveal who you are and how you got that information.

“I could easily rip them a new asshole in a court of law.”

I remember a similar quote from (now-ex) Sheriff Metts early in the game. That legal sharpers could out-game average citizens in a legal setting really says nothing about the truth of accusations.

Too bad we don’t have a reliable legal system (or agency) that puts the safety of children first and foremost.

“VOLUNTARILY submitted herself to a complete psychological exam” …..<<<< by a psychologist of her choice – and paid for by her or via her insurance. Additionally, the "psychologist" could be one her lawyer's [Paid Whores], who will say whatever you PAY them to say. As to lie detector test, very old school proven worthless bullshit waste of time. And even the courts have said countless times, too..
.
Full psychological exams really prove nothing. A report based on months and months and months of observation and talk in a professional setting might. But then, you can get a most any psychologist who you are paying by the hour for, to say anything in YOUR favor.

1) How in the hell does the mother padding a psychological exam snd lie detector test prove that her ex abused their child?

2) Lie detector tests are inadmissible in criminal trials for a reason. It is well documented that nervousness and anxiety can mimic deception, when in fact none exists.

3) The incompetence of DSS, more often than not, is more damaging to those accused of malfeasance, as these investigations are drawn out for years with accused having a cloud over his or head.

4) Even were one to assume that Josh was a bad or abusive husband, this does not prove child abuse. Making that leap shows your own bias.

Anon, your post is the definition of disgusting. If you feel so strongly about this case and the child’s welfare, you’d have identified yourself and submitted a signed affidavit. Just because you invoke the Bible doesn’t mean you’re any less full of shit.

Lie detector tests are not admissible in family court either, not just in ‘criminal trials’. They only people I have ever met who believe in the validity of lie detector tests are law enforcement officers. They use the results to determine whether or not to bring criminal charges.

DSS investigations, by law, have to be concluded within 45 days. A 15 day extension may be approved in some cases. They cannot go on for years. There may be additional reports and investigations over years, but they cannot ever last more than 60 days (with 15 day extension).

DSS doesn’t investigate ‘ those accused of malfeasance’. It investigates when there is suspicion of abuse or neglect of a child or a vulnerable adult.

If Josh was/is an abusive husband, that is considered per the laws our legislature has passed to put any children in the home at threat of harm of abuse and/or neglect.

Law enforcement doesn’t even use the lie detector for that. They use them to get confessions and truthful testimony by convincing those tested that they work.

I took a polygraph (they rarely call it a lie detector) as a part of an investigation of someone else. He started the test with me picking a card from a deck and answering no when he asked if this was the card even when the right card was shown I was instructed to answer , no. He would then tell me which card I picked.

My recent reading has led my to believe it was a marked deck. Those lies that don’t cause guilt, fear or effort to deceive are most difficult to detect. He just wanted to convince me that it worked so that I wouldn’t attempt lying. Polygraphs may work on someone who is convinced that they work, but not if you don’t believe that they work it doesn’t work as well. I’m over simplifying, but the polygraph is just an investigation tool to get you to give truthful responses and is almost useless otherwise.

The agency I had a particular contact with used it as an investigatory tool that allowed them, when the alleged perpetrator ‘passed’, to disregard victim and other testimony in a child molestation case and not press charges.

Isn’t that the issue with all of the FITSNEWS reporting on this story?
The only verifiable – by other published media reports – facts that we actually know about the Josh Kimbrell case is that he was charged by the local law enforcement and solicitor and the solicitor subsequently dismissed the charges.
Everything else published here over these months appears to have been leaks, hearsay, gossip, whatever from people who may have actual documentation of the facts, such as the DSS Case Determination Fact Sheet and the Family Court judge’s order, but are not providing it. Or, unlike other stories, FITSNEWS has it, but has not provided it.

I cannot wait to see FITS go after Walker…it will be funny and about as effective as his relentless and irrational pursuit of Nikki Haley…..and FITS does not have to run retractions, since he is not taken that seriously, anyway.

So as far as Leftwing Worshiped publications go: FITS is just following in timeless Tradition…of Bash the Conservative first..and don’t give a $#!t if it’s true or not….
